Chapter 896:

Elyse didnโ€™t fully grasp Brookโ€™s meaning, so she calmly asked, โ€œWhere am I supposed to go? Is Jayden planning to come after you?โ€

โ€œNo,โ€ Brook replied awkwardly. โ€œYou have to leave with Charlieโ€™s friend. Heโ€™s here for you.โ€

Taken aback, Elyse smiled bitterly. โ€œOf course. I knew you wouldnโ€™t let me stay for nothing. You had a plan. Now I understand.โ€

Brook winced at her words. This wasnโ€™t how heโ€™d envisioned things. He wanted to protect her, but circumstances had spiraled out of control.

Elyse stood, feigning indifference. โ€œI have no luggage. Should I leave now?โ€

Brook nodded stiffly. โ€œHeโ€™s waiting downstairs.โ€ Elyse brushed past him and left the room.

As she walked away, Brook sighed, regret filling him. Everything had gone wrong. He couldnโ€™t understand how word of Elyseโ€™s stay got out.

Elyse entered the living room and saw a man seated on the sofa. One glance at Rory told her he was dangerous. Though he smiled, his eyes were cold and calculating.

Rory scanned her before Brook came down the stairs. โ€œIs this Ms. Elyse Lloyd?โ€ Rory asked.

Brook nodded. โ€œYes.โ€

Rory nodded curtly and stood. โ€œThanks, Brook. Weโ€™ll share a meal later.โ€ Brook forced a smile.

Elyse remained silent, showing no fear as Rory led her out. She followed him to the car, calm and composed.

Roryโ€™s curiosity piqued. โ€œWhy arenโ€™t you afraid? Donโ€™t you know what kind of place the Hudsonsโ€™ residence is?โ€

โ€œOf course,โ€ Elyse replied steadily.

Rory laughed, disdain lacing his amusement. โ€œThen why arenโ€™t you scared?โ€

โ€œItโ€™s pretense,โ€ she answered. Sheโ€™d known this day would come and prepared herself.

Sheโ€™d accepted her fate, or at least appeared to. She wouldnโ€™t give anyone the satisfaction of seeing her break.

Rory chuckled cruelly. To him, Elyse was disposable. No mental preparation would change her impending suffering.

After an hourโ€™s drive, they arrived at a grand manor.
