Bound by love: Marrying my Disabled Husband

Chapter 1577:

“Eager to see her facade crumble,” Jayden replied with a quirked eyebrow.

Elyse responded with a derisive snort and pointedly ignored him.

The following afternoon, Elyse and Jayden arrived at the Owen Group’s branch office in Watscar.

Most of Jayden’s business partners had settled there, as had Brook recently. Corrie, too, had acquired property in the area.

Upon their arrival, a staff member materialized to greet them, directing their steps toward the lounge.

“Shouldn’t Brook be in his office?” Elyse questioned. “Why the lounge?”

The escort shifted uncomfortably. “His behavior has been… peculiar these past couple of days. The lounge seemed more appropriate.”

Elyse and Jayden exchanged knowing glances, a shared spark of amusement dancing between them. Without discussion, they settled onto the lounge’s plush sofa.

They had barely had time to adjust when the door swung open with dramatic flair.

Brook strode in, accompanied by a woman whose flashy attire and curvaceous figure commanded attention.

“Ah, perfect timing,” Brook announced proudly to Jayden. “Meet my new girlfriend, Camille Glyn. Quite the catch, wouldn’t you say?”

Camille batted her perfectly mascaraed lashes at Jayden. “Pleasure to meet you, Mr. Owen,” she purred, her voice as smooth as honey.

She possessed an undeniable magnetism that drew the eye.

Brook squeezed her shoulder possessively. “Jayden here is my cousin—we’re incredibly close. And beside him is his girlfriend, Elyse.”

Camille instantly beamed. “Hello, Elyse. You look absolutely stunning. I wish I had your style.”

Elyse, encountering such an exuberant and open-hearted woman for the first time, paused in surprise but quickly recovered with a warm smile. “Hello, Camille. I’m excited to get to know you better.”

Camille returned the warmth. “Of course! We’re practically family now, so let’s skip the formalities.”

Brook turned briefly, then quietly shut the door and settled on the sofa, drawing Camille close to him.

They enjoyed their coffee, weaving through conversations about work and the latest buzz, all within the cozy confines of the lounge.

Ten minutes later, the lounge door creaked open.noveldrama

Predictably, it was Corrie, who couldn’t keep still any longer.

She entered, bearing a tray with steaming coffee, her smile bright. “Jayden’s here too? Brook, why didn’t you give me a heads-up?”

Corrie set the tray down and nestled next to Brook.

Though she sat right beside him, Brook leaned heavily on Camille, effectively leaving Corrie out in the cold.
