Bound by love: Marrying my Disabled Husband by Devocean

Chapter 972:

At the Moon Palace, the office lights flickered against the evening sky, casting long shadows in the hallways.

Edward emerged from the conference room, rubbing his aching temples in frustration. The remnants of Charlie's

gang had resurfaced, attempting terrorist attacks to disrupt the peace and stability of the city.

With Jayden’s help, Edward had finally dealt with Charlie and most of his men, a longstanding nuisance. He had

looked forward to a peaceful life, but now it seemed chaos was returning.

Deeply irritated, he muttered wearily, “Getsfood. I'm starving. Those old men hold endless meetings

and never get anything done. The first thing I'll do when | take power is fire them all.”

The butler replied, “Please head to the dining room. Your meal has been prepared.”

Edward nodded and made his way to the dining room. As he took a few bites, a thought struck him. “Has Elyse

eaten yet? She isn’t skipping meals because of Louise, is she?”

“Elyse has eaten. It was Louise who didn’t want to eat. Elyse comforted her and convinced her to eat as well,”

the butler replied. After a moment, he added cautiously, “Sir, perhaps you should check on Louise later. She

seems genuinely upset.”

After finishing his meal, Edward hesitated briefly, then nodded and headed upstairs.

Louise was lying on her bed, engrossed in a book. Hearing the knock, she frowned and asked impatiently, “Who

is it?”

Edward cleared his throat and replied, “It's me.”

“Edward!” Louise's excitement was palpable. She put down her book, jumped out of bed, and ran barefoot to

open the door. Upon seeing Edward, she immediately embraced him tightly.

Edward, exasperated, pulled her off. “What's wrong with you? You're not a child anymore. Stop being so clingy.”

Hating the distance his words created, Louise retorted, “I don’t care! You're my Edward, and | will be with you

forever.”

She was determined to marry him and wouldn't allow him to keep his distance. Louise pouted, prompting Edward

to say helplessly, “I've been really busy lately. | have to practice the violin for the tour and handle political

matters. | can’t always look after you. Can you take care of yourself?”

Louise frowned, crossing her arms defiantly. “So, you're busy forbut free for Elyse?”

Edward stroked his chin, realizing that Louise was quite perceptive.

Seeing Edward remain silent, Louise's smug smile returned. “See? | knew it. You treat us differently. I'm your

childhood friend, yet you favor her over me. You're such a jerk!”
