Chapter 1194:
Jayden’s eyes scanned Amanda from head to toe before he drawled, “Did no one notice how unhinged you were when you joined us?”
His words sliced through Amanda like a barrage of shrapnel. In a surge of anger, she spun and stormed into the bedroom, catching Jayden unprepared.
“Elyse! You temptress! Who gave you the right to be with Jayden? You’re just a seductress, stealing my man!”
Amanda’s voice echoed sharply around the room as she unleashed a torrent of accusations at Elyse.
Elyse sat nonchalantly in her chair, her legs boldly visible beneath Jayden’s T-shirt, which she wore as her only garment. She reclined with poise, casually stroking her hair.
Still aglow from their recent intimacy, she radiated a compelling charm, her gaze hinting at a deep, inviting mystery.
Amanda, with her average looks and conventional style, had always prided herself on a beauty she believed to be superior to most.
Yet, standing before Elyse, the very picture of alluring femininity, Amanda appeared more like an awkward clown.
A frown marred Elyse’s face, annoyance flashing in her eyes as she looked up at Amanda. “Jayden, why did you let her in? Isn’t this humiliation enough?”
Seeing Elyse’s displeasure, Jayden’s confidence faded. He approached her soothingly. “Honey, don’t be upset. She’ll be out of here in no time.”noveldrama
Quickly, Jayden seized Amanda by the scruff of her neck and forcefully ejected her into the hallway, closing the door with a loud slam.
The door banged shut, echoing down the corridor, leaving Amanda heartbroken and bewildered.
A cold clarity descended on her as she realized that Jayden’s undivided attention was entirely focused on Elyse, with no thought spared for her.
Frozen in her tracks, Amanda was engulfed by a wave of profound sadness.
Peyton, who had observed the drama unfold, could no longer suppress his contempt. “Jayden never had any interest in you. Who do you think you’re deceiving with this pitiful act? Me? I’d rather punch you in the face. Your foolish infatuation is revolting.”
With that, Peyton concluded his harsh rebuke and turned away, vanishing into the distance without a backward glance.
Swallowed by resentment, Amanda remained motionless. What qualities did Elyse have that she lacked?
Elyse finished brushing her hair, reclining casually against the chair. Jayden stood beside her, urging gently, “Please, eat something. You skipped dinner last night, and that could unsettle your stomach.”
Elyse snorted dismissively. “No. I’m not eating. I’m too upset to even think about food.”
Jayden carefully placed breakfast before her. “If you don’t eat, you’ll be weak. Remember how you struggled and pleaded for it to stop last night?”
Bringing it up only made Elyse more upset. “You might have found it pleasurable, but did you ever pause to consider how I felt? You always dominate the situation. Don’t you care about my feelings at all? I was seeking just one clear answer.”
Noticing the tears welling up in her eyes, Jayden gently wiped them away with his thumb, his voice filled with regret. “Please don’t cry. I accept the blame; it’s always been my fault. I’ve been too aggressive with you. Don’t distress yourself over it.”
Elyse glared at him sharply. “I’m not shedding tears over you. Believe me, you’re the last person I’d cry over. I pity myself, that’s all.”
