Shaun arrived at the hospital after handing over the drunk driver to Peyton’s guy.
When Tracy noticed his facial injuries, she was taken aback and said, “What happened to you? Your face is
bruised, and you are filthy all over.”
“A gang of people cout of nowhere and tried to murderjust as | was about to hand over the driver to
Peyton’s guy,” Shaun remarked with a shrug. “Despite their attempts, they failed, but | must admit that
interacting with them was not without its challenges.”
With that, Shaun reached for Tracy’s hand, prepared to take her away.
In an angry outburst, Tracy stated, “I want to stay with Elyse.” She was reluctant to leave. “At this moment, | am
her only comfort. This is not the tforto abandon her!”
Shaun firmly said as he clenched his fist, “You have to go back with me. A bunch of people's eyes are now
fixated on Jayden. Until they get what they want, they won't give up. If you continue to stay here with Elyse,
you'll definitely be implicated.”
Tracy felt infuriated. “I don’t give a damn whether I'm involved or not. Elyse is my best friend. She's now

“You have no idea what to do! How the hell are you going to keep her safe? It will jeopardize your safety,” Shaun
exclaimed with a sullen expression on his face. He then took Tracy over his shoulder. “Return with me!”
“No! I will not go back with you, bastard! Putthe hell down!” Tracy fought fiercely, but her strength paled in
comparison to Shaun's, and she could only be forcibly taken away by him.

Peyton also recognized at that point that the guy who pulled the strings behind the assassination was someone
who would not give up until he achieved his goals.
That individual had a genuine desire to murder Jayden!
“Shit!” Peyton cursed a few times, then pulled out his phone and hastily texted Clive, asking him to keep Elyse
company as soon as he finished with the whole driver situation.
After Driscoll finished packing up sessentials, he visited the hospital an hour later and saw Elyse seated in
the VIP ward.
She sat on a chair, the color gone from her face. Her eyes were empty and deep, giving the impression of a lost
kid trying to find her way home.
Driscoll filled the wardrobe with all the bags he had taken over. “Are you okay?” he questioned as he approached
Elyse.
Elyse felt his presence and glanced up to see Driscoll. She said, her visage expressionless, “There you are! He's
still in the ER, but his condition has stabilized. After his wounds are treated, he will be sent to this ward.”
Driscoll gave Elyse a troubled glance. Since he was reluctant to bring up the delicate subject, he asked, “Have
you had your physical examination? Did you get hurt?”
“The doctor said I'm fine,” Elyse responded to Driscoll’s questions with a blank face.
He lifted his hand and patted Elyse’s shoulder, soothing her softly. “Don’t worry too much. Mr. Owen will be just
fine, | promise.”
With a slight nod, Elyse sat in the ward for a while longer.
Jayden was still in a coma when nurses and physicians wheeled him into the ward about thirty minutes later. The
doctor gave Elyse and Driscoll sinstructions before leaving.
Elyse stood near the bed and studied Jayden'’s face.

After taking the bill from the nurse, Driscoll informed Elyse, “I have to go take care of the bills.”
With a nod, Elyse motioned for Driscoll to go on.
Sitting on the edge of the bed, she gave Jayden gentle strokes on the face with her eyes welled up.
“Jayden, how cyou kept your secret from me? Is there another reason, or do you just not trust me? For
whatever reason you did what you did, you madefeel so awful,” Elyse murmured to Jayden. Her complaints
sounded somewhat adorable.
Jayden had fed her lies. She was depressed, but much more so when she realized he was unconscious and had
suffered severe injuries. She didn’t want to see him lie here, so pitiful and helpless.
She found herself unable to stop herself from loving him.
Just then, the door of the ward was pushed open by someone.
Elyse immediately looked up and saw Corrie.
A frown suddenly appeared on her face. “Why are you here?”
Corrie responded, “I'm here to see Jayden, obviously.”
Taking a glance at him, she continued, “Something bad happened to him. Can't | visit him?”
