Chapter 1118:
Defeated, Elyse handed the violin back to Anthony and departed in silence. Jayden and Edward guided Elyse to a
secluded café.
Upon entering and selecting a table, Elyse rested her head upon it, her posture radiating disappointment.
Having never played that special violin, Edward lacked understanding of its significance to her. Noticing her
frustration, he suggested, “If you need a good violin, I'll buy one for you.”
Elyse simply waved her hand dismissively, maintaining her silence.

Jayden crossed his arms, his demeanor composed. “She doesn’t want you to buy her one.”
Edward rolled his eyes, irritation creeping into his voice. “You can’t read minds. How would you know that?”
An enigmatic grin appeared on Jayden’s face. “Is there any other reasonable explanation? | know her better than

Edward's anger surged. “How could you possibly claim to know her better?”
“At this moment, | do,” Jayden replied coolly.
Edward found Jayden'’s arrogance insufferable. “No, your insight is shallow. You don’t genuinely know her.”
Jayden scoffed, a hint of pity in his gaze. He decided to end this pointless discussion with Edward.
Despite their dispute and the resulting silence, Elyse remained slouched over the table, her posture unchanged.
Unable to endure it any longer, Jayden shattered the stillness. “Let's move on. If the owner refuses to sell, we
can’t compel him. And if you truly cherish it, I'll arrange for someone to create one for you using identical
materials.”
Edward joined the appeal. “It's merely a violin, Elyse. Don’t be so disheartened. Whatever you desire, we'll

“You both don’t comprehend,” Elyse gradually lifted her head, her expression reflecting profound misery. “I feel
as though that violin was destined to be mine, yet it's been snatched away from me.”
Jayden appeared troubled. “You genuinely care for it? I'll find a solution. | promise I'll secure it for you.”
Edward shot back, “What can you possibly accomplish?”
Jayden regarded Edward in silence. Edward inexplicably grasped the expression in Jayden’s eyes, and a silent
understanding formed between them.
Elyse remained unaware of the covert schunfolding around her, resting her chin on one hand and dejectedly
sipping her coffee.
