Bound Hearts: My Vows to My Disabled Spouse

Fell Out With Kaelyn

Theo was relaxing in the study, leaning back in the plush chair with his eyes shut. Kaelyn, carrying her purse and wearing high heels, pushed the door open. <

"Theo, I was really surprised to get your message," Kaelyn said with a gentle smile. "Now that I'm here, what do you want to do?"

She reached out to touch his face, but Theo abruptly opened his eyes and tilted his head away, avoiding her hand.

Kaelyn gave an awkward smile, pulling her hand back. "What's the matter, Theo? You seem upset."NôvelDrama.Org owns all © content.

Theo gazed at her face for a moment before speaking. "Kaelyn, after that mudslide, how did you manage to save me?"

"Why bring that up?" Kaelyn looked stunned but kept her smile. "You know it was traumatic for me. I'd rather not think about it."

Theo's voice was cold. "So, you're not going to tell me? What about all the comforting words you gave me back then? Do you still remember them."

Kaelyn fought down the panic rising in her chest and replied, "Of course I do."

Theo stared at her for a long moment before bursting into laughter. "Kaelyn, you've been lying to

me for two years. Are you going to keep lying now? Do you think I'm that gullible?"

Kaelyn shot back, "I haven't lied to you. You're the only one for me."

Theo snapped, his anger flaring, "The one who actually rescued me back then was Elyse, not you! You claimed her deed as your own. I've always seen you as my savior, caring for you so deeply that I even walked away from my own wedding!"

Kaelyn's fists tightened, her nails digging into her palms. Had Theo<<< discovered the truth? Was it Elyse who told him?

Gritting her teeth, she remembered the details of that day. When Elyse carried him down the hill, they were the only two around.

Since Elyse and Theo were both had passed out, Kaelyn had taken the opportunity to whisk Theo away.

He was soon at the hospital and his fever had subsided. As for Elyse, she was found and taken to the hospital the next day.

Had she foreseen the turn of events, she might have taken Elyse's life.

would see her side.

Tears brimming in her eyes, Kaelyn felt herself crumbling. "Theo, you don't really think I saved

you, do you?"

Theo looked at her, his gaze growing icy. "That night, when you were there for me, you whispered something. I'll believe it's you if you repeat those words."

Kaelyn fought for composure. "That day was traumatic for me. I can't bear to remember it."

Theo's laugh was sharp and scornful. "Elyse spoke those words. How foolish of me to assume you were my savior just because you were there when I woke up."

Kaelyn wanted to explain, but Theo turned away, no longer willing to hear her out.

"Kaelyn, don't come near me again, I warn you," he said, his

expression dark and unwelcoming.

Kaelyn's words faltered. She realized he had sided with Elyse.

Her smile faded, she fixed her gaze on Theo and challenged, "Do you ever regret abandoning the wedding for me?"

The mention of the wedding struck a nerve. "How dare you bring that up?" Theo clenched his jaw

Kaelyn defended herself, "It was indeed Elyse who carried you down the hill, but I helped too. I

was the one who rushed you to the hospital when you had that high fever."

"Enough! I don't want to hear any more of your excuses!" Theo shouted, slamming his hand on the table. "You're the reason I can't marry the woman I love. You should be grateful I haven't hurt you!"

Kaelyn, her voice breaking with sobs, pleaded, "But I truly love you. I love you more than Elyse ever could. Why won't you believe me?"

Theo burst out laughing, his voice tinged with anger. "Your love? 1 treated you well, yet you betrayed me with other ment I'll never trust you again!"

"No, please don't push me away. My love for you is real." Kaelyn tried to approach him, tears streaming down her cheeks.

"Fuck off!"

In a fit of rage, Theo threw the pen holder from the desk. A pen struck Kaelyn on the forehead, and blood trickled down her face.
