Unrepairable Love
Chapter 488
The airport wasn’t that far, but Alexander just couldn’t seem to get here. It felt like it was slipping further and further away.
Elizabeth’s flight time was creeping up, and Alexander still couldn’t even see the airport.
Holding back tears, Alexander grabbed his phone again..
The rain outside was coming down hard, like it was punishing someone with a
guilty
conscience.
No replies to his texts, no returned calls. When Alexander dialed again, all he got was, “This number is no longer in service.”
‘She’s really leaving; she even canceled her number,‘ Alexander thought, barely able to believe it.
Elizabeth had that number since middle school. The first number she saved was Alexander’s.
Back then, Elizabeth was so innocent. She sat in front of him, smiling. “Alexander, this is my phone number. Memorize it.”
“Phone numbers change all the time. I’m not memorizing it,” he said.
Elizabeth frowned and said seriously, “If you memorize it, I won’t change it!”
Alexander laughed. “Really?”
Elizabeth nodded. “Yeah!”
On their wedding day, Elizabeth was so happy. But Alexander had thrown the divorce papers at her, shattering all her happiness.
Alexander still remembered her expression, from shy and happy to confused and then disbelief. Finally, she lowered her head, her hands trembling as she held the divorce papers.
Elizabeth had said countless times she would make Alexander fall in love with her. And he had answered countless times that she
wasn’t worthy.
Alexander felt a deep pain in his heart.
The car sped up again, rain pounding on the windows. Alexander didn’t even notice a tear falling from his eye. And it was only for
Elizabeth.
In this lifetime, Alexander would never shed a tear for anyone else.
At that moment, Alexander finally understood his own heart.
He had unknowingly grown used to Elizabeth. From the moment she agreed to the divorce, from the moment he lost control and kissed her, he had left his heart with Elizabeth, leaving it in that villa, now empty without her.
Suddenly, there was a loud bang on the windshield. As Alexander looked up, the windshield shattered. The next second, the car came to an abrupt stop.
Alexander was thrown forward, his forehead hitting the steering wheel.
Soon, the car’s hazard lights were flashing, with only the windshield wipers moving back and forth in the pouring rain.
Standing in front of the car, Alexander called Nolan, but Nolan didnt answer.

Chapter 488
Alexander let out a bitter laugh and slammed his palm on the hood
All those times he had hurt Elizabeth while doting on Esme now fell like karma, coming back to him bit by bit,
He picked up a stone lodged in the glass and got back into the car.
Looking at the time, Alexander shook his head helplessly. Elizabeth’s flight was taking off in half an hour. She was probably going through security and getting ready to board now.
Even if Alexander rushed over in half an hour, it would be too late. Besides, he couldn’t get there now. The car was broken.
For the first time, Alexander felt this was karma. He had never believed in such things before. But now, he had to believe.
Alexander was frustrated. He reached for a cigarette, but when he opened the drawer, Elizabeth’s driver’s license fell out.
