Bound Hearts: My Vows to My Disabled Spouse

Chapter 55 Giving Her Virginity Away For Nothi...

"Lanny just told me that Mabel slept with Theo Ward," Elyse said in a conflicted tone. "He wants us to go home to deal with the matter."

Peyton was horrified by the mention of Theo's name. "Wait, what? Theo Ward? He slept with your sister? Weren't you engaged to him before?"

"That's the one." Elyse nodded and smiled bitterly. She had always known that Mabel liked Theo, and she had encouraged Mabel to pursue him the last time they met. Even so, this was way beyond what she could have imagined.

How did those two end up sleeping together?

Out of everyone present, Jayden was the most collected. He had looked into both Elyse and Theo. Theo might not be a notorious playboy, but he was far from being a saint.

"The man has a rather rich romantic history," Jayden commented. "He started dating girls when

he was quite young. He's just good at covering his tracks."

"How do you know so much about him?" Elyse asked, her brows furrowed into a puzzled frown. "You know more about him than I do."

Peyton rolled his eyes. "Why are you surprised? He is your et of course your husband had to investigate him."

But Elyse was still rather shocked. How could Jayden or her to this extend?

As for Jayden, he had to clench his hands to keep from strangling Peyton.

"Anyway, I'm going to see what's up," Elyse said. "I'm also curious cow this came about."

Jayden nodded. "All right. You'll be going on your own, though

"You're not going with her?" Peyton asked.

"I don't want to get involved in this kind of thing." Jayden answered without batting an eye. Driscoll thought back to what happened last time and chose te speelt up. "Excuse me, Sir, but I think you should go with your wie She might get bullied by her family again"

Peyton nodded in agreement. "Exactly. I know you hate this bef thing, but your wife needs someone to support her. Whe when abe count on if you won't be there? Theo?"

Jayden gritted his teeth. Why were they all telling him to go to these vapid controversies.

"It's all right, Elyse interjected, "I can go by myself inval how to use Jayden's name to my advantage, anywac

For some reason, this was the liost all that conve

"Fine, I'll come with you."

Elyse blinked at him and didn't know what to say.

After finishing their afternoon tea, the couple made their way to Lanny's.

They had barely stepped through the front door when Elyse heard Mabel's sobbing, It sounded a

lot more serious than the last time she had heard the sound.

Glenda was weeping as well. Mother and daughter were huddled on the sofa while Lanny loomed over them, his face red with anger. He must have been berating them for a while now.

His expression immediately changed when he noticed Jayden and Elyse. He walked over to them, eager to pander to their needs. Well, Jayden's to be exact.

"At last, you've come! This family has descended into chaos. I don't know what to do

anymore."

Elyse blinked, dumbfounded. Who was this amiable, middle-aged man in front of her?

Who knew that her father was actually capable of kindness?

"Tell your daughter to stop crying," Jayden said in a strained voice as he pinched the bridge of his nose. "My head is starting to hurt."

Lanny wasted no time. He whirled around and barked viciously at Mabel. "Stop crying, you shameless girl! You've annoyed Mr. Owen."

Mabel raised her head, her tears still streaming down her face. It was then that Elyse spotted the very obvious hickey on her sister's neck.

"So, it really happened?" Elyse blurted out before she could stop herself.

Mabel had mixed feelings about Elyse's shocked reaction. On the one hand, she felt smug at

having successfully slept with the man that her sister failed to keep. On the other hand, she hadn't really won anything, as the man in question had also dismissed her.

"Yes, we did. So what? I did it! I slept with your ex, the man you loved the most!"

Startled by her daughter's outburst, Glenda hurriedly covered Mabel's mouth. "Stop spouting nonsense!"

"Precisely!" Lanny chimed in angrily. "What are you talking about, huh? The man your sister loves is not Theo, but Mr. Owen here. Keep that shit up, and I will sew your mouth shut myself!" That only made Mabel cry even more. She felt so aggrieved! Why was nobody on her side? Jayden stared at her for a moment before saying, "You're not crying because you lost your virginity, but because he rejected you afterward. Isn't that right?" ovelWorm.cof

Elyse turned to him with a gasp. "What?"

"I'm guessing that your sister asked Theo to take responsibility for what happened between them,

but he refused. That's why she felt taken advantage of. She had given her virginity away for nothing."
