Bound by love: Marrying my Disabled Husband

Chapter 1549:

She, however, didn’t fully grasp the meaning behind his words.

Edward, for his part, saw this as his own flaw.

The one person he loved would never know how deeply he cared for her.

They would always remain friends.

Edward had no desire to force Elyse to understand his feelings. He simply wanted to cherish every moment in her presence.

His face brightened with a warm smile. “Do you and Jayden plan to get married?”

“Why are you echoing Louise’s question?” Elyse responded, caught off guard.

“So, will you have a wedding?” Edward persisted.

Elyse fidgeted uncertainly. “I don’t know. It’s up to Jayden, really. We haven’t discussed it yet.”

“Why not ask him now?”

“Can’t. He’s mid-flight and won’t land until tomorrow afternoon,” Elyse explained, shaking her head.

Edward rubbed his nose thoughtfully. “He’ll be here tomorrow, right? Then I’ll ask him myself if he’s planning a wedding.”

“Why are you so invested in us having a wedding?” Elyse asked, intrigued.

Edward drummed the table with infectious enthusiasm. “Because I want to play the violin at your wedding!”

“What?” Elyse leaned in, not quite catching his words.

“I want to perform at your wedding! With enough passion, any venue can transform into a stage!” Edward’s eyes sparkled with excitement. “Just give me advance notice, or I might not be able to clear my schedule.”

Elyse sat there stunned, words failing her. The waiter’s timely arrival with their burgers provided a welcome distraction.noveldrama

“Enough wedding talk. Let’s eat. I’m famished.”

Edward’s eyes lit up at the sight of their meal. His stomach had been growling too.

They dove into their burgers, falling into a comfortable silence broken only by appreciative chewing.

After finishing, they both let out contented sighs.

“What happened to eating a horse?” Elyse teased, eyeing the remaining fries. “There’s still quite a pile here.”

Edward patted his stomach playfully. “Just catching my second wind.”

“Never said I was done.”

Elyse’s knowing smile spoke volumes as she held her peace.

Taking a sip of cola, Edward confessed with a grin, “Truth is, my parents have this thing against burgers and fries.”

“Then why indulge?” Elyse asked, curiosity piqued.

“Precisely because they forbid it. It’s the natural order of rebellion,” Edward declared.

Elyse nodded. “I understand that rebellion because I’ve done it before too.”
