Tracy and Elyse spent a long tchatting, delving into topics such as their love lives, work, and the future.
Eventually, Elyse drifted off, her head resting against a cushion. Jayden leaned over and held her on his lap.
Tracy yawned and asked, “Are you going to sleep?” Jayden turned to her and asked, “If Shaun really wants to
marry you and spend his life with you, would you forgive him and reconcile?” The question caught Tracy off
guard. “Why do you ask that? Do you know something?” Jayden shook his head. “You and Shaun aren't right for
each other. The gap between you two is too big. Honestly, | was shocked when | heard you were marrying him.”
“But why?” Tracy asked.

“A promising heir will usually choose a partner who can strengthen his family and position. He chose you instead
and even gained his family’s approval, which surprised me,” Jayden said candidly. After a moment, Tracy asked,
“So you think he’s made a lot of sacrifices and efforts to marry me?” Jayden didn’t respond directly. He said
calmly, “I was supposed to marry once, but after | becdisabled, the engagement was canceled. My family
didn’t completely cutoff, but | was set up to marry someone | didn’t love.” He glanced at Elyse and
continued, “I was lucky to marry her. In our social circles, we rarely have the freedom to choose who we love. We
have to consider the advantages and disadvantages while keeping family standing in mind.”
Surprised, Tracy asked, “You were powerful. Why couldn't you choose freely?” Jayden raised an eyebrow. “If the
gap in status is too big, one partner will always have to support the other. Do you think the wealthy would accept
that kind of arrangement?” Tracy paused, lost in thought. Jayden smoothed Elyse’s hair and continued, “Even so,
you weren't wrong to leave Shaun. He was not a caring boyfriend.” With a complicated expression, Tracy said, “I
thought you'd try to convinceto get back together with Shaun.” Jayden replied, “I won't interfere in your
relationship.”
Staring at Elyse’s sleeping face, Tracy murmured, “I don’t know how to handle my relationship, but if | get back
with him, Elyse will be upset, right?” Jayden replied, “Even so, she can’t dictate your choices.” With that, he left
with Elyse in his arms. Tracy returned to the guest room feeling uneasy. What did she mean to Shaun? He had let
her go first, so why was he coming back now? Tracy thought about it all night, only falling asleep as dawn broke.
Early the next morning, Elyse woke up and immediately looked for Tracy. She went to the guest room door and
felt relieved to see her sleeping soundly. She’d dreamt that Tracy had drowned, and it had terrified her. After
confirming Tracy was fine, Elyse went downstairs for breakfast before heading to the stuto practice her violin.
The next round of competition would be held in a few days, and she knew she couldn't take it lightly.

Gavin and Irving guided Elyse through her practice in the studio. Tflew by, and by the end of the day, she
felt she'd learned a lot and returned hfeeling accomplished. That evening, she grew frustrated when she
learned Jayden wouldn't be hfor dinner due to work. Tracy curled up on the couch with her new phone and
reassured her, “Con, your husband is out making money. You should understand.” Despite Tracy's words,
Elyse remained upset. “He’s always busy lately. If | didn’t know he was working, I'd be overthinking again.” Tracy
put down her phone and comforted her. “Don’t dwell on it. That's how men are. Once they're married, they throw
themselves into their work.”
Suddenly, Driscoll approached, interrupting them. “Something’s wrong, ladies. Shaun Kennedy is here and wants
to see Tracy. He askedto open the door.” Tracy's face went pale. She gripped Elyse’s hand, frightened. “Why
is he here? We broke up.” Elyse felt a pang of panic herself. Why did Shaun have to show up now with Jayden
gone? After a brief moment, she told Driscoll, “Tell him Tracy doesn’t want to see him. Ask him to leave
immediately, or I'll have someone remove him.”
