Chapter 695
Elizabeth thought to herself, “This person even dares to handle explosives. Can I really believe anything truthful will come out of his mouth? He’s nothing but a fraud.’
Elizabeth sent a message to Felix, asking him to pay special attention to this person. It would be best to find out who he really is.
She wondered, ‘Let’s see who hates Alexander so much.‘
Elizabeth closed Base M, and her Instagram popped up with
a
new message:
[Lily is critically ill again after hearing about the incident with the Tudor Group.J
Elizabeth frowned, looking at the news on her phone, feeling uneasy
She then quickly changed her clothes and went straight to the hospital.
When she arrived, she happened to run into Alexander, who was on the phone, and his eyes bloodshot from exhaustion, ignoring her passing.
He stood at the end of the corridor, the intense midday sun beating down on him as if trying to pierce through him.
He rubbed his temples and then touched his stomach.
Elizabeth watched him for a while, for she had never seen Alexander so dejected.
She sighed and turned towards the emergency room.
Elara was sitting on a bench, her hands tightly clasped. Blake was nowhere to be seen.
“Elara,” Elizabeth called out.
Elara saw her and immediately burst into tears. “Elizabeth!”
“What happened to Lily?” Elizabeth asked her.
“Lily has always been in poor health. When she woke up today and saw the overwhelming news about the Tudor Group, she got worried that her heart couldn’t take it!” Elara kept crying, her voice choked with sobs.
Elizabeth listened, feeling equally distressed.
“This isn’t a big deal. Alexander will handle it well. Lily worrying about it is just unnecessary,” Elizabeth comforted.
“That’s true. It’s quite strange. she has always known Alexander’s capabilities, so this shouldn’t be a big deal. But when I came back after taking a call, her condition had worsened.”
Elizabeth comforted Elara, feeling puzzled by what she heard.
“Did anyone go into the room?” She asked curiously.
Elara quickly shook her head. “I don’t know.”
Elizabeth looked towards the emergency room. Could someone have gone in and said something provocative?

She then didn’t say much ort, as it was just her own speculation.
Footsteps approached, and Elizabeth looked over to see Alexander returning after hanging up.
When he saw her, he stopped in his tracks.
Elizabeth looked stunning today, her hair casually tied up, exuding an air of elegance and poise. Especially the way she looked at him, her gaze was complex, but her beautiful eyes remained unchanged.
Compared to the weary Alexander, the two seemed to form a stark contrast.
For the first time, Alexander felt that if he were to marry Elizabeth, would be him reaching above his station.
In essence, he felt unworthy of someone as outstanding and beautiful as Elizabeth.
Elizabeth stood up. Then Alexander looked at her and slowly stopped in front of her
Elizabeth greeted him, “Mr. Tudor.”
He nodded at her, his expression heavy.
“I came to see Lily. I saw the news that she was ill,” Elizabeth said, looking into his eyes, which were bloodshot, visibly exhausted.
Alexander nodded.
Elara watched them, feeling a mix of emotions. As the once close pair now seemed like strangers.
“I saw the news about the Tudor Group too,” Elizabeth said to Alexander.
Alexander looked up slightly, his throat moving. “It’s not a big problem.”
Elizabeth looked at him. And she could sense his helplessness.
Over the years, Alexander had never failed. But he had been framed this time. After all, the entire Tudor Group was being reorganized.
The person who framed him was no ordinary individual.
Elizabeth thought for à moment and told a white lie, “My dad said that if the Percy family can help in any way, we will do so without hesitation.”
