Chapter 937:
Holding his arm to steady him, Elyse looked at Jayden with pleading eyes. Jayden exhaled sharply, his irritation palpable, but he nodded reluctantly.
Turning back to Fiona, Elyse asked, “How long do you need the room?”
Fiona, unabashed as ever, responded, “I’ll stay until your tour ends.”
Elyse frowned, puzzled. “What does my tour have to do with your situation?”
“That’s none of your concern,” Fiona retorted brusquely. “I just want to see the tour through. You’re going to help.”
Despite her frustration, Elyse managed to keep her composure. She resignedly booked a hotel room for Fiona.
With her immediate needs met, Fiona’s demeanor brightened considerably. “Take me there now. I need to ensure it’s suitable.”
Elyse escorted Fiona to the hotel and didn’t leave until Fiona confirmed she could secure a room.
Standing at the entrance, Fiona watched Elyse and Jayden disappear into the distance, a frosty smile playing on her lips. “Elyse, you must feel pretty smug for snagging Jayden’s heart, huh? Enjoy it while it lasts, because I’m going to make sure you lose it all.”
Her goal was clear—to destroy the man who adored Elyse and the career she cherished. She wanted to witness Elyse fall from her pedestal, stripped of her fame and influence.
With a satisfied sigh, Fiona turned and headed up to her room.
The moment she stepped inside, she eagerly dialed Kaelyn’s number.
Kaelyn was lounging in her study, half a bottle of wine already gone, her cheeks flushed from the alcohol. When her phone rang, she lazily swiped to answer, her voice slightly slurred. “What is it?”
Fiona’s tone was deferential. “Kaelyn, just like you asked, I’ve attached myself to Elyse. I’m staying at the hotel she arranged for me.”
Kaelyn raised an eyebrow, then poured what remained of the wine into her glass, adding ice and swirling it around. “That’s a start, but not enough. I want you to get into the concert hall. Watch her during rehearsals, keep tabs on her every move,” she said, her tone casual but firm.
Fiona couldn’t help but wonder why Kaelyn wanted her so close to Elyse, but Kaelyn had promised that Elyse would fall hard. Trusting her once more, Fiona swallowed her doubts.
This time, Fiona was fully aware of Kaelyn’s frightening tendencies, making her more cautious and eager to please her.
