MainNovelChapter 1757:
She let her words settle before continuing. “But now, you're not alone anymore. You have me. You have people
who care about you. Even if you feel lost, even if you struggle to find meaning in all of this, you're no longer
paralyzed by fear. That's why this child is making you feel conflicted.”
Tracy stared at her for a long moment, then let out a soft laugh, eyes filled with something between amazement
and disbelief. “That's incredible. How do you understandso well?”
Elyse smiled, warmth in her gaze. “Peyton and | put our heads together. We wanted to help you, so we analyzed
everything.”
Tracy frowned slightly, intrigued. “But Peyton's a surgeon, isn't he?”
Elyse nodded. “He is. But he’s been studying psychology on the side.”
Tracy looked puzzled. “Why? Is he planning to quit surgery?”
Elyse hesitated for a beat before answering. “At first, he just wanted to understand Jayden better. He noticed
how much Jayden had buried himself behind walls, how unhealthy his mindset had become. So he started

want to handle it myself, settle everything before | cback to you. But in the end...”
Elyse pulled a tissue from her pocket and dabbed at Tracy's tears with gentle care. “It’s a good thing your plan
didn’t work out,” she murmured. “It gavethe chance to be here for you. Can you even imagine the weight of
that guilt if you had gone through with it? Tracy, you're the kind of person who stops to feed every stray animal
you see. If you had really done something like that... it would have destroyed you.”
Tracy broke down again, but this time, her sobs carried a different weight—one of release. The dam inside her,
the one that had held back all the pain, the fear, the uncertainty, finally cracked open. She cried until her chest
ached, until there was nothing left to spill.
