Bound by love: Marrying my Disabled Husband

Chapter 1552:

Elyse quickly offered him a bottle of water. “How’s it feeling?”

“I’m over the moon!” Nick burst out, his eyes glistening with emotion.

“I never imagined performing for such a large audience!”

“You did even more than that,” Elyse gently said. “You reached audiences worldwide!”

She could relate to his emotions; her own success at the Swan Cup had overwhelmed her similarly.

“You really showed them, Nick,” she added warmly. “You’re even more talented than you realize.”

Overcome with emotion, Nick dabbed at his eyes. “I’m so thankful for my violin. I’m thrilled I kept at it. I adore it, and I’m eagerly anticipating my next chance to perform!”

Fresh from their stage performance, Nick and Elyse slipped away from the bustling finale. The grand closing number featured a full ensemble cast, leaving them free to change in the dressing room before joining the audience to watch the remainder of the performances.

Settling into his seat, Nick’s eyes sparkled with excitement. “I can’t believe how big the stage felt! So many people were watching me. Did I keep my cool?”

Elyse half-listened to his enthusiastic chatter while tapping out a message to Jayden on her phone.

Her face brightened as Jayden’s reply confirmed he’d landed and was already en route.

The event still had a good portion left to run, so despite missing her performance, Jayden would be able to catch the remaining performances with her.

Within thirty minutes, Jayden materialized in the audience section.

Nick had regained his composure by then, though Jayden’s appearance caught him off guard. Quickly recovering, he offered a casual greeting. “Hey, are you here to catch the performances?”

Jayden acknowledged with a nod, his gaze drifting to Elyse. “I came here mainly for her performance, but I missed it, so I’ll just watch the rest with her.”

“There’s a recording. It doesn’t matter,” Elyse said.

The trio fell into comfortable silence as they watched the remainder of the performances. As the final curtain drew near, they prepared to leave.

Just then, Elyse’s phone lit up with a message from Louise.noveldrama

Jayden glanced at her screen and said, “Looks like Louise wants to invite you to dinner.”

Elyse gave her phone a playful shake and corrected, “She also invited you. You can come with me.”

Nick excused himself, having already made plans with Celeste. When Elyse and Jayden located Louise’s designated meeting spot, Elyse was taken aback to find Edward waiting instead.

His stern gaze fixed on Jayden as he stated, “The upcoming event is quite formal. To avoid you from offending others, I’ll lead the way.”

Confusion flickered across Elyse’s face. What she thought was a simple dinner with Louise seemed to be evolving into something else entirely.
