Chapter 931:
But Jayden simply turned back to Elyse with a look of irritation. “Why didn’t you tellthat playing the violin
could be dangerous? You could have hurt your fingers all this time.”
Noting his accusatory tone, Elyse couldn’t help but scoff. “Please, it's a rare occurrence. I've never been injured
by a broken string.”
“Just because it hasn't happened to you doesn’t mean that it never will,” Jayden replied, a part of him already
wishing Elyse would give up the violin altogether.

That finally made Elyse snap. “Even if | get hurt, | can handle myself perfectly fine. | don’t need you to fuss over
me. If you're going to keep talking like this, you might as well never show up in front ofagain!”
Jayden'’s expression darkened at her threat. He only wanted her to be safe and healthy—what was so wrong with
that? He wished to stay by her side forever, keeping her away from harm, no matter how minor it might seem.
Meanwhile, Fiona watched their exchange, feeling increasingly neglected with every passing moment. She was
the one who had been injured, yet Jayden barely spared her a glance. Why did he only care about Elyse?
Numb with humiliation, Fiona stood up with her head hung low.
Her action caught Jayden’s eye. Still stinging from Elyse’s reprimand, he barked at Fiona, “What are you doing
just standing there? Are you giving up the competition? If so, we're leaving.”

Truth be told, he was eager to take Elyse away. Before anyone could protest, Jayden strode over and grabbed
Elyse’s hand. She frowned at him in puzzlement as he began to pull her away. Were they not competing after all?
“Stop!” Fiona shouted, her eyes brimming with tears. “I never said you could leave!”
She ran over, leaving her violin case behind, and grasped Elyse’s other arm. “You can’t leave!” she screamed.
“You have to stay and compete with me! | never gave you permission to go!”

Elyse shook her head helplessly. She knew that Fiona was having an emotional outburst. “Do you really think you
can compete in your current state?”
“Why not? Are you saying that | am no better than you? I'll have you know that I'm considered a promising talent
as well!” Fiona’s voice was filled with unmistakable despair as she practically panted, glaring at Jayden.
“I want you to see that | am not inferior to Elyse. If anything, I'm much better than her! You made a huge
mistake not choosing me. I’m going to show you today, and you'll regret that decision for the rest of your life!”
Jayden looked Fiona up and down, his anger and impatience palpable in the air. He wondered how he had ever
gotten entangled with someone so delusional. One thing was for sure: if Fiona’s rants caused any
misunderstandings with Elyse, he wasn’t going to let her off easily.
