Chapter 855:

Elyse blinked, at a loss for words. Her relationship with Jayden had been strained for stime. She knew better

than anyone that Jayden had never fully favored her; his heart seemed sealed off.

Darren, recalling something, flashed a smile. “Oh! Jayden had a message for you.”

Curious, Elyse inquired, “What did he say?”

“He wantedto tell you not to worry. He's in the audience, cheering you on. No matter your final ranking, he

sees you as the best,” Darren said, visibly touched by his own relay of the message.

He then sighed sentimentally. “It seems he’s softened a bit.”

Elyse opened her mouth, but no words cout. How could Jayden say something like that? Wasn't he always

keen on reining her in and opposed to her competing? It dawned on her that her tapart from Jayden had left

her unable to gauge his true feelings.

“Are you so moved that you're speechless? What's got you so quiet?” Darren waved his hand before Elyse’s face.

Elyse cto her senses and offered a smile. “Alright, | get it now. Thanks for that encouragement.”

Pleased, Darren nodded. “I thought as much. Love has a way of calming the nerves. You can always rely on

Jayden'’s support.”

After relishing the exchange, Darren walked away, content.

Left behind, Elyse remained standing there, feeling somewhat adrift. Jayden was no longer the pillar she could

lean on; that role had shifted to Aarya.

With a resigned smile, Elyse cleared her mind of distractions and focused solely on the competition.

Exiting backstage, Fiona made a beeline for the lounge, quickly pulling out her phone to call Kaelyn.

Kaelyn, expecting to hear cheerful updates, teased her with a smile, “So, has the competition wrapped up? What

place did you get?”

“Competition? Elyse is back,” Fiona blurted out, her voice laden with fury and desperation. “Didn't you assure me

that she wouldn't return? How did she manage to cback right before the competition? You're useless. You've

ruined everything.”

Kaelyn was taken aback by the news of Elyse’s return but was quickly stung by Fiona’s biting remarks.

Kaelyn retorted sharply, “What's gotten into you? After everything I've done for you, you throw insults at me?

Have you lost your senses?”

“Yes! I'm out of my mind, and it’s your fault!” Fiona retorted, her frustration pouring out. “You promisedElyse

wouldn't return. You said my path in the competition would be clear. And now? You're nothing but a liar, and I'm

a fool to trust you.”

Unmoved by Fiona's distress, Kaelyn focused on the implications. “Are you implying you want to back out of our

agreement? You're refusing to uphold your end of the deal?”

Fiona scoffed disdainfully. “Deal? You failed to deliver on your end. How can you even ask for my help? What

makes you think you're entitled? My dreams have been shattered, so don’t expect to gain anything from me.”
