Chapter 401:
His thrust caught Elyse off guard, eliciting a whimper. Not getting the answer he craved, Jayden spanked her. The
sudden move startled her, intensifying her cries. He sank his teeth into her shoulder, a growl escaping his throat.
“Not talking, are you?” Elyse shook her head frantically. “No, | want to be all yours.”
A satisfied smirk played on Jayden'’s lips as he intensified his efforts. Aching with desire, Elyse yearned for
nothing more than to be ravished by Jayden. The bathroom grew thick with heat, the mirror fogging with
condensed water that trickled down like silent tears. Her gasps of pleasure, initially bright and eager, faded over
time, replaced by hoarse moans. Finally, at the peak of ecstasy, she succumbed, losing consciousness and
fainting.

Exhausted, Jayden cradled the unconscious woman, his own breaths ragged. Recovering his strength, he peeled
off her damp clothes, gently cleaning her before carrying her back to the bedroom. Standing by the bed, he
gazed at Elyse. He hadn't anticipated such a satisfying encounter, born out of manipulation. A seed of possibility
sprouted in his mind; perhaps there was more to explore here.
With brisk efficiency, Jayden showered and left the room. Driscoll, bewildered, stammered, “Mr. Owen, aren't you
using the wheelchair? Elyse is asleep.” Jayden replied curtly, “Dinner later.” Driscoll, though confused, obeyed,
pushing back dinner time.
Two hours later, Elyse stirred awake. Groaning at the soreness radiating from her waist, she struggled to her feet
and shuffled out of the room, her legs trembling. Jayden, seeing her enter, asked softly, “Hungry?”
Elyse, sensing his improved mood, understood her bathroom initiative hadn't been in vain. Previously, worry had
gnawed at her; she couldn't bear the thought of Jayden spiraling into depression after Brook's humiliation. She
reached the table with a grimace as Driscoll instructed the maid to serve the meal. The sight of food was a
welcsight to Elyse. “Your favorites,” Jayden said, gesturing to the spread. “Eat up.”
Elyse beamed and dug into her meal. Just then, Driscoll reappeared, his voice laced with urgency. “Security
called, Mr. Owen. Tracy's here.” Elyse’s eyes darted to Jayden, who gave a curt nod. “Show her in.”
Following the order, Driscoll escorted Tracy inside. Elyse rose to greet Tracy, her heart sinking at the sight of her
friend. Dust covered Tracy like a second skin, as if she'd rolled in the dirt. Jayden joined them, spotting the raw
wound on Tracy's knee. Discreetly, he murmured to Driscoll, “Call the doctor.” Driscoll nodded and hurriedly
made the call.
Elyse grabbed Tracy's hand, concern etched on her face. “What happened?” Tracy offered a wry smile. “Mind if |

on? Weren't you filming?” Tracy hung her head, her voice barely a whisper. “Kicked out after a few days. Because
of Shaun.”
Elyse’s eyes widened. “Shaun? What did he do?” Tracy's throat tightened, her voice thick with hurt. “He bought
my agency and gave all my jobs to someone else. My agent toldto beg for mercy, but | refused. So he cut
thick with emotion. “Furious, | confronted him today. He demanded | sleep with him. When | refused, he tried to
trap me. | snuck out of the bathroom, dropping my phone in the process. Had to walk all the way here.”
Elyse cursed under her breath, a torrent of fury rising within her. “That bastard!” Tracy, tears streaming down her
face, choked out, “He controls my career, Elyse. Shaun wants to ruin me. | hate him.” Witnessing Tracy's despair,
Elyse turned to Jayden, seeking his help.
Clearing his throat, Jayden took charge. “You can stay here for now, Tracy. Put your career on hold. We need to
figure out what Shaun wants.”
