Bound Hearts: My Vows to My Disabled Spouse

Who The Hell Touched You

When the girl thought about the complicated entanglement between Elyse and Theo, she felt really regretful. Why did she have to run her mouth and praise Theo in front of Elyse?

But Elyse just finished tuning her violin and smiled. "Don't sweat it. It's all in the past, and I'm doing much better now. You don't have to beat yourself up over a

trifle.

But the girl thought Elyse was simply putting up a brave front. She quickly backtracked and proceeded to insult Theo. "Well, that Theo Ward is a good-for-nothing player, anyway. You can tell at first glance! It's a good thing you broke up with him. You definitely dodged a bullet. Just look at him and Kaelyn!" She looked around to make sure no one was listening, then added in a whisper, "If they didn't know any better, people might think they are an item!"

The corners of Elyse's mouth twitched. She had actually hit the nail on the head.

Soon enough, the musicians were walking to the stage and assuming their positions. They played their piece as planned.

Meanwhile, sitting in the audience, Theo's eyes immediately singled out Elyse from the other musicians. She looked so serene and graceful as she focused on the conductor's baton. It suddenly occurred to him that he had never seen her perform before. Whenever she invited him to one of her performances, something would always come up, and he would have no choice but to deal with it. By the time he wrapped things up, Elyse's performance would be

over.

Today would mark the very first time he would experience her music directly. It also struck him how passionate she was about her craft. It showed, too. She stood out among her peers, even in the distance.

Kaelyn turned to look at Theo, but his eyes were fixed on Elyse. And they were filled with a deep longing and affection.

Anger washed over her, and she clenched her hands into fists. The thing she feared the most had finally happened.

After the performance concluded, the team from the TV station stood up in unison and applauded the musicians. As the crowd dissolved into cheers and animated conversations, Theo noticed Elyse sneaking into the backstage.

He didn't think twice and followed her.

Due to the issue regarding Barnes, Elyse was wary around the media. She returned to the dressing room, looking to drink some water and get some peace. She realized too late that Theo had followed her.

Considering the events that had transpired the day before, she was immediately on guard. "Why do you keep pestering me? We were over a long time ago. Just face the reality and move on with your life."

He stared at her for one long moment, and when he finally spoke, his words surprised her. "In our three years together, I don't think I've ever seen you play the violin."

Elyse's face turned stony. "So? What are you trying to say?"

"I never took you seriously before, never showed up to any of your performances. Is that why you left me in the end?"

Elyse frowned at him. She didn't know why he was suddenly bringing up the past. No matter what flowery speech he spewed out now, it would be nothing more than hollow pretenses to her. "Perhaps," Theo continued, "if I had set my heart on you and paid you more attention, would you have waited for me instead of marrying someone else?"

Elyse's lips curled into a disdainful smile. "Why would I wait for you?" she asked, her voice filled with disdain.

"Because you love me," Theo replied matter-of-factly. "You used to love me very much, didn't you? You sacrificed a lot for my sake."

She took a sharp breath and nodded. "I did love you. I wanted to marry you. But you failed me in the end, didn't you2"This is property © NôvelDrama.Org.

Theo scowled at the memory of their botched wedding. "What happened that day was an accident. If you could have waited for me to settle things, I would have still married you after I returned."

Elyse laughed at his audacity. "How dare you expect me to wait for you after everything? Did you

Her voice softened as she added, "You're still the same as ever. You only care about yourself. Even now, you only see me as an accessory."

Theo was astounded by her indifference. She had always pandered to him in the past. He didn't know the Elyse that stood before him now. He reached for her, but only managed to grab onto her clothes.

Still, he had used enough force to pull at her blouse that her collar slid down, exposing several hickeys on her collarbone.

Theo's mind went blank. He didn't even bother hiding his true emotions. His eyes flashed, and the veins on his temples bulged as he demanded, "Who the hell touched you?"

Elyse shoved his hand away and glared at him. "Who else can it be if not my

husband?"

"Jayden? That crippled bastard..." Theo gnashed his teeth together, his eyes wild and crazed.

He wasn't even sure what he was so furious about. All he knew was that he absolutely loathed the sight of those hickeys.

Just then, Kaelyn also appeared on the scene. She hurried over to Theo and tried to coax him. "Come on, don't get so worked up. She's married to someone else now. She doesn't have any feelings for you, and probably never had to begin with."
