Chapter 1775:
Jayden pulled her closer. “Meant to be indeed. Who else could you possibly end up with besides me?”
Elyse’s face flushed, leaving her momentarily speechless.
Jennie, resting her chin in her hands, sighed dreamily. “I can’t handle this! Other people's romances are always
the most heartwarming.”
Camille pouted in jealousy. “So adorable! When will it be my turn?”
Brook shot her a pointed look. “Stick to your studies, not love stories.”
The evening was filled with cheerful conversation and laughter. Brook, especially, was in high spirits—now that
Corrie was out of the picture and he had Jennie by his side, his life felt complete.
Happiness was unmistakable. As the dinner wrapped up, Brook's phone suddenly rang. Zoe's nflashed on
the screen.
The moment he answered and heard her voice, his tipsiness evaporated. His face turned serious.
Reassuring her, he said, “Don’t panic. I'll arrange for someone to track down Uncle Jordy. He's probably just
hanging out with his friends, had a few drinks, and lost track of time.”

After ending the call, Jayden, noticing the change in Brook's demeanor, asked, “Aunt Zoe? Something wrong?”
Brook exhaled sharply. “She said Uncle Jordy left to meet sfriends in the afternoon and hasn't returned.
She's tried calling and texting, but there's no response.”
Jayden’s brow lifted. “So, he’s gone off the radar?”
Brook nodded. “Yeah. She’s worried and askedto look into it.” His expression darkened. “The timing feels off.
| can’t shake the thought that Corrie might be involved.”
“Need backup?” Jayden offered.
“I've got this covered. You and Elyse should head home,” Brook replied, shaking his head. He knew Jayden
wasn't particularly close to Jordy.
Jayden gave a small nod. “Alright, but call if you need me.”

Brook returned the nod before leaving with Jennie and Camille.
As they watched him go, Elyse turned to Jayden, her voice laced with concern. “Do you think Corrie and Jordy
meeting means they're plotting something to split up Brook and Jennie?”
Jayden exhaled, a hint of frustration
in his tone. “It's possible. Caris'en
