Unrepairable Love
Chapter 375
As soon as Elizabeth cracked her eyes open, there was Alexander, just hanging up the phone.
Man, what a small world.
Alexander saw her and didn’t even flinch.
Guess this was the quickest flight home.
Elizabeth wished she’d just gone for an economy seat.
Felix cleared his throat and stared out the window.
“Ms. Percy,” Nolan gave a slight nod, acknowledging Elizabeth.
Elizabeth just looked down and mumbled a response.
Then, silence. Awkward silence,
It was still pitch black outside. Elizabeth turned away, putting some distance between her and Alexander.
The plane took off, and Elizabeth tried to catch some Z’s. But Alexander and Nolan kept yapping about work, driving her nuts.
“Too noisy,” she grumbled, eyes shut, not even bothering to look at them.
Nolan looked up, “Sorry.”
Alexander just raised an eyebrow and kept going, “End this project entirely. Inform the team in Lisbun to sever connections with Louis and close down all his operations there.”
Hearing Louis’s name, Elizabeth shot up.
She turned to Alexander.
Alexander looked back at her. Her hair was a mess, and her collar was all crooked.
“Why not just off Louis?” she said, deadpan.
Alexander almost choked. He stared at her, shocked she’d say something like that.
Just say you did it,” she smirked.
Alexander was speechless.
‘Ms. Percy, you should rest,” he said, trying to be nice.
Elizabeth didn’t reply, just lay back down, twirling her fingers. She thought, ‘Louis is useless now. That stab wound ruined him. For
a guy, losing that function is like the end of the world.”
Elizabeth was beat and soon asleep on her side.
Alexander kept talking shop with Nolan, all serious.
15:29 Wed,
Chapter 375
When they finally wrapped up, Alexander noticed Elizabeth had fallen asleep facing him.
Thinking about all the ups and downs she’d been through because of him, he felt a pang of regret.
No going back now.
He couldn’t love Elizabeth, and she didn’t love him anymore.
Alexander looked down, a hint of sadness in his eyes.
They landed in Lisbun at 7 PM, and it was dark.
Elizabeth and Alexander walked out of the airport one after the other
“Alexander!” A sweet voice called out, grabbing everyone’s attention.
At the exit, Esme was there with a bouquet, smiling and waving.
Elizabeth glanced at Esme, threw on her sunglasses, and quickly walked past Alexander.
Alexander watched her go, his throat tightening.
He looked away and headed towards Esme.
Esme hugged him right away, “Alexander, I missed you so much.”
Alexander gently pushed her back, “How’d you know I was coming back today?”
“Nolan told me!” Esme beamed.
Alexander frowned. “You asked Nolan about my schedule again?”
He turned to Nolan, who looked apologetic.
Nolan couldn’t say no to her.
“If you won’t tell me your schedule, I’ll ask Nolan. What’s the big deal? Esme pouted.
Alexander didn’t respond, his attention caught by something in the distance.
Declan had come to pick up Elizabeth, and there was a refined–looking guy with him.
The guy reached out to shake Elizabeth’s hand, looking all nervous.
