Chapter 1228:

Brook approached, clutching a bag, his gaze lingering on Jayden with a look that spoke volumes.

Noticing Brook's expression, Jayden raised an eyebrow. “What? Why are you looking atlike that?”

“I'm heading back to handle Grandpa's funeral. Are you coming?” Brook asked.

Jayden shook his head. “No. After all, I'm as good as a murderer myself.”

Brook persisted, “Will you at least remain as part of the Owen clan?”

Jayden hesitated. “Do you really want that badly?”

Brook replied, “You might've cut ties with Enzo, but no other Owens have cut ties with you.”

Jayden shrugged, deflecting. “Let's talk about it later.”

Brook saw through Jayden’s evasiveness, but he knew there was little he could do now. Things had unraveled too

far already.

He gave Jayden a firm pat on the shoulder, then turned and climbed into the car.

Brook rolled down the window, leaning out for a final word to Jayden. “Take good care of Elyse. | know there's

always been love between you two. Don’t lose each other.”

Jayden’s heart skipped a beat. Could things between him and Elyse really fall apart?

After Brook drove off, Jayden hurried back to the lounge, where Elyse sat, calmly sipping her coffee.

When she noticed him enter, her expression barely shifted. “Did Brook leave?” she asked, sounding indifferent.

Jayden nodded, sliding into the seat next to her. Without a word, he reached over, lightly wrapping his fingers

around hers.

Elyse glanced at his hand, a hint of irritation in her eyes. “What are you trying to do now?”

Thrown off by her bluntness, Jayden hesitated. “I want to make up for everything I've done wrong.”

Elyse slowly pulled her hand back, her gaze cool as she studied his discomfort. “Let’s leave the past where it

belongs.”

“Don’t say that. | don’t want to just forget,” Jayden replied, feeling an unexpected wave of urgency.

His heart tightened. Hadn't he already endured the worst of it? Why was Elyse still so set on leaving?

Elyse let out a tired sigh. “I'm exhausted, Jayden. | never thought I'd feel this way, but I'm just... worn out. So

much so that | don’t even know what | want anymore.”
