Chapter 1036:
Seeing Elyse deep in thought, Louise spoke up, feeling somewhat helpless. “Maybe you should take tto
understand your feelings more clearly.”
Elyse remained contemplative for a moment before looking up at Louise. “You're quite insightful for someone
your age.”
Louise responded with pride, “I always get perfect grades. Acting as your life coach is easy for me.”
Elyse eyed the ever-so-proud Louise with amusement, gently tapping her nose. “You're quite something, trying
to be my life coach at your age! Have you even been in love?”

“I may lack the experience, but my knowledge is vast! Trust me, letbe your life coach—you won't regret it,”
Louise declared, puffing up like a proud peacock.
Elyse couldn't help but chuckle, shaking her head in fond disbelief. “I appreciate the offer, but | think I'll pass on
your wisdom for now.”
Louise's expression faltered for a moment, feeling as though her advice had fallen on deaf ears. Still, she was
quick to recover, her eyes sparkling with curiosity. She cautiously asked, “So, what are your feelings toward your
ex-husband these days?”
Elyse blinked, caught off guard by the sudden shift in conversation.

“If he were confirmed dead, what would you do?” Louise pressed on, her tone more serious now.
Elyse hesitated. “If he really is dead...” She trailed off, realizing a difficult truth she had been avoiding.
Her mind waded through a sea of emotions, and for the first time, she acknowledged how much she couldn't
bear the thought. The very idea that Jayden might be gone made her heart sink like a stone tossed into a deep
well. Inwardly, she clung to the hope that the news was false, a cruel lie spun by Kaelyn.
She pressed her lips into a thin line. “Could you help me, Louise? Could you use your connections to find out if
Jayden Owen really died in that conflict?”

Louise, sensing the weight in Elyse’s voice, nodded. “So, his nis Jayden Owen.” She paused, her tone
softening, then smiled. “Don’t worry. I'll help you.”
Elyse, surprised by how readily Louise agreed, raised an eyebrow. “You're willing to helpjust like that?”
“Of course! I'm a loving princess, after all. If your request is reasonable, I'll always do what | can to help,” Louise
replied proudly.
In truth, Louise harbored her own reasons for hoping Jayden was alive. She could see the torch Elyse still carried
for him, even if she wouldn't admit it openly. Louise reasoned that as long as Jayden drew breath, Elyse’s heart
would remain out of Edward's reach.
If the opportunity slipped through her fingers, she'd have no one to blbut herself if Elyse and Edward ended
up together.
