He Hasn't Fully Opened Up To Her
Tracy was taken aback by the revelation.
Glancing around, she lowered her voice. "So, did you two really have a fight? From an outsider's perspective, it seems like you and Jayden deeply care for each other. You are a perfect match. He's always so attentive to your needs and emotions. Honestly, despite his leg issue, he seems like the perfect husband."
Elyse's bitter smile betrayed her inner turmoil at Tracy's assessment. "You think we're a perfect match, huh? Sometimes, I do too. He supports me through everything, like a pillar. Even in our... intimate moments, there's a strong connection."
After a pause, Elyse continued thoughtfully, "But there's always a distance between us. I never know what's on his mind, how he's
feeling, or what plans he has for the future."
Tracy hesitated, then cautiously prodded, "Are you saying Jayden's wary of you? He hasn't fully opened up to you?"
"That's what I think," Elyse admitted, uncertainty tingeing her voice.
Tracy had a realization. "Could it be that Jayden's been too guarded after his accident, maybe even auspicious?"
Elyse pondered for a moment before responding tentatively, "It's possible. But then again, maybe
not. I can't shake the feeling that he's hiding something from me."
Tracy paused, then asked curiously between bites, "Hiding what? What secret do you think he's keeping?"
Elyse recalled and confessed, "Sometimes, I wonder if he's capable of standing."
Tracy nearly choked, hastily swallowing her food before responding hoarsely, "That's absurd. If
Jayden could stand, he'd be just like anyone else, right?"
She struggled to find the right words. After knowing Jayden for so long, she couldn't imagine him being physically impaired. He seemed perfectly normal.
But without evidence, doubts lingered.
"Perhaps rushing into marriage was a mistake. You need time to truly understand each other," Tracy concluded, opening a bottle of beverage and taking a few sips. "It's all about learning to accept one another."
Elyse found Tracy's perspective reasonable. She raised her beverage and clinked it with Tracy's, saying, "Perhaps I'm being overly sensitive. I'l try to talk to him when I get the chance."

"That's a good plan. Make sure to cherish him." Tracy smiled, ready to take a sip of her beverage,
but her phone interrupted with a sudden ring.
Elyse grabbed the phone and glanced at the screen. "Call from Liverton. Recognize the number?" Tracy took back her phone and promptly ended the call, adding the number to her blacklist.
With a grim expression, she muttered, "Who else but Shaun."
Elyse's eyes widened. "Shaun again? Is he trying to stir up trouble for you?"
Tracy impatiently ran a hand through her hair.
"No clue, Last time it wasn't from this number. Picked up by mistake.< He had the audacity to claim the wedding wasn't off."
Tracy's chest rose with agitation, clearly seething at Shaun's audacity.
"Who does he think he is? Does he expect me to pine for him forever? I have a right to choose.
Since he's still hung up on Dolores, I'll let them have their way!"
Tracy's anger flared, punctuated by a forceful bite of food.
Elyse drew closer to Tracy. "Calling off the wedding was the right decision. Let's focus on brighter
things."

Rolling her eyes, she quipped, "Your words are
truly touching."
Elyse remained still, cautious not to disrupt Tracy's makeup. At that moment, several people approached, carrying large boxes. Elyse observed their actions, puzzled. "What's going on here?"
"Probably an artist's treat. Not sure who though. Let's join the line and find out," Tracy suggested, preparing to stand up. However, she noticed others passing by with human-shaped cutouts on their shoulders.
Elyse glanced at the cutouts, then turned to Tracy with a puzzled expression. "Are you treating the crew?"
Tracy's lips twitched. "With such a large crew, it'd cost tens of thousands. I don't have that kind of money."
As if on cue, Elyse's driver approached with two bags of food.
Elyse was shocked. "Why are you here?"
Handing the bags to Elyse, the driver explained, "Mr. Owen tasked me with delivering food to the crew, under Miss Tracy Bernard's name." With that, the driver set off to distribute the snacks.
Tracy nudged the stunned Elyse. "Thanks to you, I'll be quite popular today."
