Bound Hearts: My Vows to My Disabled Spouse

Chapter 27 Bore The Brunt Of All The Accusations

Elyse arrived at the orchestra's studio punctually on a workday morning. As she walked into the rehearsal room, she immediately sensed the odd looks from those around her.

She headed to her locker to get her violin for practice.

But upon opening it, she found her violin vandalized. Its strings had been cut, and everything inside was splattered with red paint.

"Who did this?" Pulling the damaged violin from her locker, she turned to confront other orchestra members, her expression fierce.

She scrutinized each of them intently, yet no one confessed. Raising her voice, she accused, "So,

no one will own up to this? How despicable! Engaging in such vile behavior!"

"I did it. What are you going to do about it?" From the back of the room, Rebekah stepped

forward, her hands casually tucked in her pockets, facing Elyse with a composed air.

"Why would you do this? Just because we're competing? Isn't this a bit extreme?" Elyse

challenged her, fighting to control her mounting anger.

"It's not extreme. I simply can't tolerate a bitch like you as my rival."

Rebekah's lips twisted into a scornful smirk. "Everyone here knowsw

you're the tramp who betrayed her groom and ended up abandoned at her own wedding!"

As Elyse, still seething with anger, listened to Rebekah's words, confusion clouded her eyes. "Who

said that?"

"it's all over the internet! Don't you realize you're famous now? Thanks to you, our orchestra's getting attention. Everyone knows there's a promiscuous woman among

us..."

Rebekah's voice dripped with scorn as she surveyed Elyse disdainfully.zo.Nevelworm.cof Whispers erupted among the crowd, transporting Elyse back to the day of her wedding, where she was labeled with similar derogatory terms.

But was it true? No, it wasn't!

Grasping Rebekah's shoulder firmly, Elyse fixed her with a serious gaze. "I didn't betray anyone. I was the one who was betrayed. The online rumors are false, and I'll prove my innocence!" Rebekah hadn't anticipated Elyse's defiance, but she remained skeptical of her words. Shaking off Elyse's hand, she retorted, "Your explanations won't change anything. You need to clarify things with the online community."

Elyse bit her lip, realizing she had to, but she was unsure how to prove her innocence.

"Elyse, Wanda wants to see you in her office. She has something to discuss with you," a woman interrupted, adding to Elyse's mounting troubles.

Upon hearing that Wanda requested Elyse's presence, Rebekah took pleasure in Elyse's

predicament. "You've tarnished our reputation. Prepare to be dismissed. I refuse to compete with a woman of loose morals."

Ignoring Rebekah's smugness, Elyse clenched her fists and strode out of the rehearsal room toward Wanda's office.

Taking a deep breath, Elyse pushed open the door to Wanda's office.

Inside, Wanda sat behind her desk, engrossed in a file.

Elyse approached silently, waiting until Wanda had finished jotting down her name before

speaking. "Ms. Hopkins."

Setting down her pen, Wanda peered at Elyse with concern. "Have you seen the gossip online? Do

"I'm sorry. I haven't had a chance to check the internet, but I've heard about it from Rebekah,"

Elyse replied, shaking her head.

"Take a look for yourself," Wanda urged.mnoLWorm.@ oft)

Elyse retrieved her phone and tapped into the trending topics, discovering three entries related to

her.

The first one was,

Elyse selected the first hashtag.

The post claimed that Theo hadn't abandoned her at the wedding. Instead, he left after

discovering she had been unfaithful to him.

Online users, unaware of the truth, had rallied to defend the bride and vilify the groom. However,

the reality now was that the true victim was the groom. Though the post didn't disclose the

groom's identity, they accurately mentioned the bride's name- Elyse Lloyd.

She bore the brunt of all the accusations.
