Chapter 1084:
Jayden shook his head dismissively. “Don’t worry. I've already talked to Garret. Currently, our opponents are in
disarray. With Corrie hospitalized and Brook detained, they're just a disorganized group. They pose no real
danger.”
Elyse, curious, inquired, “So, are you suggesting this conflict might end soon?”
Jayden nodded confidently. “Possibly. Unless someone else takes charge for them, it should conclude before
long.”
Elyse let out a sigh of relief. “I hope no one steps in to take control. We might finally get back to a normal life.”

it was crucial that it happened here. Otherwise, everything would be meaningless.
Before they set off, they stopped at a supermarket to pick up ssnacks and water, then hit the road. As night
fell, they still had five hours of driving left. Elyse’s back ached from prolonged sitting, and she massaged her
lower back while yawning. “Let’s find somewhere to rest. | can’t sit any longer. My back is really hurting.”
After a moment, she added, “And you've been driving all this time. You must be tired as well.”
Jayden looked around. “We'll need to drive a little further. There's a residential area ahead. We'll check there for
a hotel.”
Elyse nodded, clearly eager for a break. She was finding it increasingly difficult to remain seated.
After exploring the area briefly, Jayden located a hotel that seemed decent. He parked the car in the nearby
open-air lot and reached for Elyse’s hand, but she quickly withdrew hers. Jayden raised an eyebrow, visibly
annoyed by her reaction. He was not going to let it slide.
She had initiated a divorce, but he had not consented to it. He was adamant about maintaining their connection.
Thus, he firmly grasped her hand, showing control, which made her wince in pain.
He then eased his hold slightly. “Behave yourself.”
“Book a room with twin beds,” Elyse demanded, her expression grim.

Jayden shook his head in refusal. “No, we're going to share one bed.”
Elyse gritted her teeth in frustration. “I put up with sharing a bed with you at Garret’s place, but now in a hotel,
you still insist on sharing?”
Jayden confirmed with a nod, “You will share a bed with me. Don’t think about sleeping separately.”
Elyse was left speechless, boiling with anger but unable to voice a reply.
Upon their arrival at the hotel, the receptionist behind the desk shot several curious looks toward Elyse. The
gaze made her feel uneasy, though she couldn't quite identify the cause. Feeling anxious, Elyse stepped closer
to Jayden.
