Bound Hearts: My Vows to My Disabled Spouse

You're Just A Bunch Of Laughable Figur...

Right after Elyse and Tracy made their exit from the stage, they were stopped by the bodyguards of the Kennedy family.

Elyse looked over and saw more than twenty tall figures, each standing tall, emitting a daunting presence.

She inhaled deeply before confronting Shaun, "What do you mean?"

Shaun responded sharply, "I should be asking you that. I've already declared Tracy as my bride. She's to marry me today."

His face remained emotionless as he focused on Tracy. He couldn't fathom letting Tracy go. Should she leave, rumors of his rejection would circulate globally.

He had always been proud and arrogant. Being rejected by any woman, particularly by Tracy who had shown him nothing but devoted love, was unthinkable. He resolved that she would not leave him.

Shaun's eyes bore into Tracy, resembling a menacing snake. His voice was cold and biting. "You can't leave."

Standing defensively in front of Tracy, Elyse's eyes were alight with rage. How despicable he was! Despite his lingering love for his past love, he was adamant about not releasing Tracy.

Elyse scanned the crowd for Jayden. "Help me! Jayden!"

Jayden's gaze lifted, and their eyes locked. He offered her a reassuring smile, and she felt a wave

of relief wash over her.

Suddenly, a loud bang echoed through the space. The door to the wedding banquet hall flew open as a group of men dressed in black, form-fitting clothes stormed in. They moved with precision. Some secured the only exit while others squared off against the Kennedy family's bodyguards. These were Jayden's men.

A chuckle escaped Elyse's lips. Jayden had come through for her.

The men in black formed a protective circle around Elyse and Tracy, facing down the Kennedy family's bodyguards.

Shaun watched the unexpected arrivals in shock until a man in a wheelchair rolled forward and halted in front of Elyse.

With a struggle to keep his composure, Shaun demanded coldly, "What do you mean?"

Jayden replied in a calm, even tone, "I have vowed that no one would disrupt Tracy's wedding. Now that she wishes to leave, I will ensure her safety."

Shaun fixed his gaze on Jayden and demanded in a commanding tone, "Do you intend to challenge the Kennedy family?"

Tracy shook her head, her expression a mix of sadness and helplessness. She hadn't expected Jayden to go to such lengths for her. She spoke with a hint of bitterness. "The Kennedy family is one of the three powerful families in Liverton. Standing up for me like this could provoke their retaliation!"

Jayden twirled the ring on his finger, his eyes twinkling with mischief. "The three powerful families of Liverton are merely adequate. What of it if they unite against us?"

He looked up at Lowell and Shaun, his voice laced with disdain. "Having seen you in action today, I'm not impressed. You're just a bunch of laughable figures."

Both Lowell and Shaun glared at Jayden, stung by his words. No one had ever dared to mock them so openly. Jayden's public rebuke made < them lose face among the assembled guests. "A bunch of laughable figures? Let me show you the consequences of crossing me." Anger was plain on Shaun's face as he commanded, "Get her!"

His bodyguards surged forward, but Jayden's men were quick to respond, shielding Tracy and Elyse.

Jayden turned his attention to Lowell and Dolores, the silent spectators. He said with a sneer, "Won't the Ruiz family intervene? Surely, you've orchestrated this drama, hoping to see Tracy depart and the wedding called off?"

Dolores shot Jayden a look, her gaze dropping to his legs before she rolled her eyes dismissively, as if his disability made him unworthy of her attention.

Lowell's eyes flickered. "I don't understand your accusations. My sister relinquished her former

lover and allowed this marriage out of generosity."

Jayden merely smiled at this, turning to Elyse with a mischievous grin. "There's no point in further talk. Take her and go. I'll handle everything here."

Elyse surveyed the chaos before her and grasped the situation. Taking Tracy's hand firmly, she declared, "Let's go. I'l take you out of this damned place!"

Tracy dabbed away the tears at the corner of her eyes and met Elyse's gaze resolutely. "Okay, I won't marry this jerk!"

As they raced through the wedding venue, the hotel staff by the entrance watched in

astonishment as a woman, clutching the bride's hand, sprinted out. The hem of Tracy's pure white dress swept the petals scattered on the floor behind her.

"My motorcycle!" Elyse exclaimed as they burst out of the hotel. Scanning for a quick escape, her eyes landed on the silver motorcycle parked by the roadside.
