Bound by love: Marrying my Disabled Husband

Chapter 1723:

Elyse frowned, annoyance creeping into her tone. “Then how did he find out? Let’s go find out.”

The two of them made their way into the living room, where Shaun quickly approached them, his expression tense with urgency. “Is Tracy here with you?”

Elyse looked at Shaun, confusion written all over her face. “How do you know? We never told you.”

Shaun answered, his voice slightly guarded. “Someone tipped me off. After I dealt with Dolores, I came straight here.”

Without missing a beat, he started to head upstairs. “Tracy’s on the second floor, right? I need to see her. Take me to her.”

Elyse quickly stepped in front of him, grabbing his arm to stop him. “She just fell asleep. If you go up there now, you’ll wake her up!”

Shaun hesitated, then reluctantly nodded. “You’re right.”

He turned to Jayden, a glint of determination in his eyes. “Get me a room. I’ll stay here.”noveldrama

Jayden chuckled, his tone light but tinged with amusement. “Are you serious? Did I say you could stay in my house?”

Shaun crossed his arms. “You took so much from my dad, and now you can’t even offer me a room?”

Elyse cut in, her voice careful. “It’s not that we don’t want to, but Tracy’s been really unstable lately. I’m worried that seeing you might set her off.”

Shaun’s frustration was clear. “I’ve been with her the last couple of days. She won’t be as upset with me as you think.”

Elyse shook her head, skepticism in her eyes. “I don’t buy it.”

Shaun hesitated for a moment, but then his words tumbled out. “It’s true! These past few days—when she was angry, she hit me. I was the one she took it out on.”

Elyse froze, her eyes flicking toward Jayden. “He’s Tracy’s emotional outlet. How about we let him stay?”

Jayden raised an eyebrow, his tone dry. “So, you’re saying we let him be Tracy’s punching bag?”

Elyse rolled her eyes. “Isn’t he basically asking for it?”

After a beat, she sighed. “Fine, you can stay. But no matter what, I won’t let you see Tracy without her permission.”

Shaun’s frustration bubbled up. “I need to see her. It’s important.”

Elyse waved him off, her voice steady. “Then there’s nothing more to talk about.”

Seeing that Elyse wasn’t budging, Shaun had no choice but to accept her terms. Once Shaun’s accommodations were settled, Elyse and Jayden retreated to their room.

When they came out, Tracy was still asleep. As they made their way downstairs, they found Shaun sprawled on the couch, his attention fixed on the news.

Elyse stretched, stifling a yawn. “What’s so interesting on the news?”

“Celebrity gossip. Looks like the Ruiz family’s about to take a hit,” Shaun said, his eyes glued to the screen.

At the mention of the Ruiz family, Elyse turned to the TV, her eyes widening as she saw the scandal involving Dolores.

Jayden raised an eyebrow, clearly intrigued. “Last night was that crazy? You really know how to stir things up with Dolores. Aren’t you worried her family will come after you?”
