Chapter 90 Restrain Yourself
The doctor, perplexed by their relationship, earnestly advised Elliot, “You can’t just indulge yourself and
disregard her health. You need to exercise restraint. It's better for both of you.”
Elliot nodded.
There was a specific reason for the events of last night.
He had never intentionally harmed Corynn since the first tthey were intimate. This instance had been an
exception.
As soon as the doctor departed, Jason fixed a stern glare on Elliot.
“Knowing she was drugged, why didn’t you take her to the hospital?” Jason's fists clenched in frustration. Ellict
had numerous options, yet he chose to remain entangled with Corynn.
Elliot admitted inwardly that his motives were undeniably selfish.
He simply desired to remain connected with Corynn. Even if he couldn’t be with her, he resolved to stay
entwined in her life indefinitely. Allow Corynn to be with Jason?

That was unthinkable for him.

He stared directly into Jason's angered eyes and declared, “Yes, | want to stay entangled with Corynn! | am her
man. She has always been mine.”
Provoked by his words, Jason struck Elliot in the face once more.
Tasting the bitterness of the confrontation, Elliot taunted, “You can’t protect her.”
Jason's irritation flared at Elliot's mockery, his breathing quickened.
Elliot sneered, “Every time, you arrive just a little too late. Do you really think Corynn would be safe without

Jason retorted angrily, “Corynn was never yours to begin with. Besides, she and | love each other. You're just
history!”

into who was behind setting her up,” Elliot continued, his tone light, patting Jason on the shoulder as if to
reassure him.
To Jason, Elliot's smile seemed patronizing, as if he viewed Jason merely as a caretaker.
Feeling suffocated by the situation, Jason didn’t want to engage in further argument, yet he couldn't just walk
away.

Watching Elliot walk away, Jason clenched his fists, resolutely determined.
He wouldn't give Elliot another opportunity to get his way!
Elliot approached his car, where Kaden held the door open for him.
Taking the dossier Kaden handed him, Elliot quickly reviewed the contents and asked, “What did the

The phone number Elliot had Kaden investigate was registered to an ID card belonging to a farmer in the
trail of clues.
“They said that a woman instructed them to set up an ambush in the hotel in advance, and that another woman

Kaden hesitated, clearing his throat, uncomfortable with the details.
Putting the documents down, Elliot decisively said, “Let's go to the Willis residence.”
