Bound Hearts: My Vows to My Disabled Spouse

Chapter 216 Corrie Isn't A Threat

Mabel watched Glenda enter the bedroom with Lanny. After catching sight of the shopping bags on the couch, she felt a wave of depression wash over her.

The butler cautiously handed her an ice pack. Mabel, in a fit of anger, smashed it to the floor and snapped, "Just leave me alone!"

The butler, sensing her mood, obeyed silently, stepping aside.

Mabel's expression darkened. She was fed up with Lanny.

Sure, he'd given her and her mother some money, but he'd become insufferably arrogant. Mabel

was convinced she could make her own money.

Grabbing her phone, she marched into her bedroom.

Once inside, she scrolled through her contacts and dialed her agent's number, someone she hadn't contacted in a while.

The phone rang three times before her agent impatiently answered, "What's up?"

Mabel, despite her own frustration, knew she had to butter up her agent if she wanted to get back

into the entertainment business and earn some money. "Aylin, people must have forgotten about

my scandal by now, right? Can I come back to work in entertainment?".org

Worried that Aylin Watts could refuse, she added humbly. "I'm willing to start small, even with

minor gigs. I'l do anything, just give me a chance."

Aylin's response was unexpected. After a long pause, she softened her tone. "Mabel, you know

how it is. Your reputation now.... it's not good."

Mabel's heart sank. "But how? I still have fans, don't I?"

Aylin sneered. "Fans? Do you mean those million followers on Twitter? We paid for those. They're all fake. You've got less than a hundred real fans now!"

Mabel couldn't believe it. She collapsed onto the floor. "Less than a hundred? That can't be true!" Aylin, tired of the conversation already, was ready to end the call, but Mabel stopped her. "Wait, Aylin! You can't just ditch me! I need to make money. Tell me, what should I do to get a job? I'm willing to start over."

Aylin didn't want to talk to her.

Mabel was the worst artist she'd ever worked with. She'd become famous for her own songs, but she wasn't a great singer. On variety shows, she lacked humility and humor. And her acting? There was no point in even getting started!

In a nutshell, Mabel's performance in the entertainment business left a lot to be

desired.

She wasn't ultimately blacklisted, but her reputation had taken a hit.

If Mabel was given a position, their firm would take on the associated risks.

After giving it some thought, Aylin continued to believe that Mabel was a major headache. As

such, she had been barred internally by the corporation.

"If you really want to come back, you need to start writing songs again. That's how you got famous in the first place."

'And with that, Aylin hung up.

Mabel, hearing the suggestion, finally calmed down.

She was ready to write new songs, but the truth was, the songs she'd become famous for weren't even hers. They were Elyse's!

And Elyse had moved out. How could Mabel steal her works again?

Returning home, Elyse saw a message from Tracy, saying Morgan had fainted from hypoglycemia and been taken to the hospital.

Frowning, she quickly replied, "Is she okay?"

Tracy responded almost immediately, "Yeah, it's nothing serious. After some glucose, Morgan

went back to the film set. That one's a hard worker."

Relieved that Morgan was fine, Elyse put her phone away. When she turned, she found Jayden staring at her.

"I'm wondering when you'll stop giving me the cold shoulder," Jayden said.

"I'm not mad at you anymore." Elyse sighed.

Jayden didn't buy it. "How do I know that?"

Ignoring him, Elyse turned and headed back to her bedroom.

"Wait. Come to the study with me. We need to clear the air, Jayden insisted.

It was too obvious how Elyse felt. Her face would always be the first to express her unhappiness. It

was obvious to Jayden that she was still upset with him.

But he couldn't understand why she could be unhappy for so long. It had been a long time since Judy had disturbed her in this way.

"I'm not going anywhere with you. We can talk here." Elyse, clearly not in the mood, crossed her

arms.

Driscoll grinned at other staff in the living room and took a quick look at Jayden's expressionless face. They all walked away in silence

Elyse said unhappily, "They are all out. Now that we're alone, you can talk?"

Seeing that the other servants had left the room, Jayden said, "Corrie Bates isn't a threat to you. I'll never be with her."
