Bound Hearts: My Vows to My Disabled Spouse

Chapter 150 She Agreed To The Contract Willingly

Elyse stood up, changed her outfit, and went out to the garden for lunch.

As she entered the living room, she saw Driscoll walking in.

Upon seeing her, Driscoll's face lit up with a smile. "Did you have a nice rest?"

Despite the nagging pain in her legs and her weak knees, Elyse managed a smile and said

somewhat reluctantly, "Yes, I rested well."

Driscoll nodded and gave a knowing smile, saying, "Please go to the garden. There's a surprise for you there."

Elyse was puzzled. "What's that?"

"You'll see when you arrive there." Driscoll then turned and headed for the kitchen.

Feeling a mix of curiosity and confusion, Elyse made her way to the garden and was struck by its beauty.

It was filled with blooming flowers, decorated with pink and white ribbons woven through them, and small trees adorned with red ribbon bows.

Overwhelmed by the beautiful scene, Elyse continued toward the lawn.

There, she found a long table laden with an array of delicious foods.

The table was encircled by pink balloons, adding a charming touch.

Jayden was sitting in a wheelchair, resting his chin on his hand, watching Elyse's astonished expression.

He asked with a grin, "Do you like this little surprise I arranged for you?"

Elyse responded, "I didn't even realize when you managed to set all this up."

Jayden chuckled and explained, "Of course you didn't know. You were still asleep when I had the servants decorate the garden. I tried waking you several times this morning, but you wouldn't budge."

Elyse gave an embarrassed laugh and diverted her attention to her surroundings.

In fact, she was deeply moved.

When she was young, despite her accomplishments, she often felt overshadowed. Her parents always seemed to favor Mabel over her.

Even during her relationship with Theo, she felt overlooked, always second to

Kaelyn.

She had always felt like she was never the primary choice for anyone, and this was one of the few times she felt genuinely cherished.

Jayden, noticing the tears in Elyse's eyes, gently suggested, "Take a look at the table."

With a confused look on her face, Elyse walked to the table and soon noticed the tableware on it.

To her surprise, her cartoon image was printed on the plates and bowls.

Thinking she might be seeing things, Elyse couldn't resist picking up a plate to inspect it closely several times.

"Is this cartoon supposed to be me?" Elyse asked, unsure.

Jayden looked at her as if she were missing something obvious. "Just look at the silly girl on it.

Who else would it be but you?"

Tears welled up in Elyse's eyes as she was moved by the gesture. She looked at Jayden and asked, "Did you organize all this?"

Jayden leaned back, propping his chin on his hand, and responded casually, "Isn't a custom piece like this truly unique? Just buying something off the shelf wouldn't be special enough for you." Elyse bit her lip and sniffled. "How did you know this would mean so much to me?"

"Well, I spent a day or two finding someone to design it. I had it brought here this morning. I had planned for you to see it at breakfast, but you slept in, so..."

Jayden looked around, speaking slowly and with a smile that brightened his face. "I want you to know how important you are to me. I also want the staff to see that it's you I really love." Elyse's mouth dropped open in surprise. "Did you overhear what the staff were saying?"

Rubbing his chin, Jayden remarked, "Yeah. At first, I dismissed their comments, but then I thought about how persistent your misunderstandings are. If you keep misjudging my intentions, you'l feel wronged and leave the house daily without coming back."

Annoyed by Jayden's comments, Elyse turned her head away, refusing to look at him.

you keep Judy around? If you genuinely hate Joanna, why don't you show disdain for Judy, Joanna's cousin?"

Jayden couldn't help but laugh and responded, "Who says I don't show my disdain? Haven't you noticed Judy hasn't appeared today? Normally, she'd confront you by now."

Shocked, Elyse looked around and realized she hadn't seen Judy that day. "Where is she?" Elyse asked, puzzled.

Jayden played with the ring on his finger and said with a smile, "I sent her to a more appropriate place. I wanted to uncover her reasons for coming here, but since she was upsetting you, I decided she should go."

Elyse was confused and inquired, "Where did you send her?"

Jayden explained, "She's happy to serve my family, isn't she? Just yesterday, a maid at my

grandpa's mansion quit, so I arranged for her to take over."

Elyse's jaw dropped in disbelief and said, "Isn't Judy from the Foster family? How can you just do that?"

Jayden shrugged nonchalantly. "She agreed to the contract willingly. I didn't force

her."
