Bound by love: Marrying my Disabled Husband

Chapter 1579:

Stunned by his harsh words, Corrie acted impulsively, grabbing his arm, trying to pull him toward the door.

Camille, her anxiety peaking, exclaimed, “Brook, where are you going? I get uneasy when you’re not around.”

Brook assured her gently, “Don’t fret. I’ll be back in a jiffy. Elyse and Jayden are here, so you’re in good hands until I return.”

Comforted by his words, Camille nodded meekly, her demeanor softening.

The door snapped shut, and Elyse and Jayden shared a knowing glance. They seemed to read each other’s thoughts before their attention shifted to the tearful Camille.

Elyse scratched her head, wondering if Camille was aware that she was merely an actress hired by Brook.

Such was the quality of Camille’s performance that Elyse almost bought into the illusion of her undying love for Brook.

Elyse extended a tissue to Camille.

“Thank you,” Camille whispered, gently wiping her tears, her face etched with deep sorrow.

After discarding the tissue, she fixed her gaze on the lounge door with anticipation and affection.

Elyse, with a troubled expression, leaned closer to Jayden and whispered, “Do you think she’s deep in love with him?”

Jayden matched her hushed tone. “How can she fall so hard, so fast? It hasn’t even been a full day, and she’s head over heels?”

Elyse mulled it over and nodded slowly. It was clear: Camille was not just playing a part; she was living it.

Meanwhile, outside the lounge, Corrie punched the air to vent her frustration. Spinning around, she confronted Brook.

“What’s gotten into you? Hooked up last night and now it’s a lifelong commitment? Planning to rush order a wedding dress for tomorrow?”

Brook replied, deadpan, “The wedding dress is on order. Did you think I was joking? I’m dead serious about marrying her.”

Corrie was dumbstruck. She shoved Brook, her voice rising. “You’re marrying her? And what am I? Chopped liver? Who am I supposed to marry? How do you see me?”

Brook, visibly annoyed by her shove, pushed back. “You know where you stand with me. You can tell if I have feelings for you or not. I’d advise you to tell everyone you want to end things with me—save yourself the embarrassment.”

Corrie’s fury ignited at the notion of breaking off their engagement. “End it? How dare you! Why would you be with me if you didn’t care?”

“Are you really that naive or just acting? Our relationship was my grandpa’s doing, right? Weren’t you the one who begged me to agree to it?” Brook sneered, reminding her of their bitter past.

Their relationship was nothing more than a strategic alliance, cold and calculated. Brook was acutely aware of Corrie’s ulterior motives.noveldrama

When Enzo issued the directive to bring in Elyse for an abortion, reluctance hung heavy in the air; no one stepped forward, and Brook was no exception. Despite their rocky start, Brook had never contemplated harming Jayden’s child.
