Chapter 119

Elizabethโ€™s eyes were red, her hands hanging by her sides, looking a bit lost. "That went outside for some air," Elizabeth said softly, not even trying to lie.

โ€œYour grandpa is fine now,โ€ Alexander told her.

Elizabeth approached Alexander, her eyes full of apology. โ€œSorry for causing trouble.โ€

โ€œWhat are you talking about?โ€ He frowned, not liking her tone. Even though they were planning on having dinner, he was still her husband, in a sense. He couldn't just stand by when her grandpa was in trouble. Just like how Elizabeth attended Lily's birthday banquet, didn't she?

โ€œAbout the divorce,โ€ Elizabeth started.

Alexander interrupted, โ€œNo, no, let's talk after your grandpa gets better.โ€

Elizabeth looked up, her eyes watery, resembling a frightened fawn, pitiful and delicate. She bit her lip and lowered her head in shame. Alexander's mood shifted. He raised his hand, his fingertips landing on her lips, signaling her to stop biting.

โ€œI didnโ€™t do it on purpose,โ€ Elizabeth explained softly.

Alexander was taken aback. โ€œWhat?โ€

Elizabeth said weakly, โ€œI was afraid youโ€™d think I was playing tricks to avoid the divorce.โ€

Alexander fell silent. Last time they were getting divorced, Lily suddenly visited. He had misunderstood her then. Elizabeth really held grudges.

Alexander tapped her forehead. โ€œGo see your grandpa,โ€ he reminded her.

Elizabeth nodded, then asked, โ€œTogether?โ€

โ€œNo. I have a meeting this afternoon. You come see him later,โ€ Alexander said gently. She didnโ€™t try to keep him any longer. Elizabeth responded with a hum.

As Alexander was about to leave, Elizabeth suddenly hooked his sleeve. Alexander turned, his gaze falling on her pretty face. She looked at him gently and said softly, โ€œThank you.โ€

Compared to her, Alexanderโ€™s emotions were really stable; past dealings with the media were something Elizabeth needed to learn for a long time. Alexander bent down slightly, his gaze level with hers. Seeing her so obedient, he inexplicably wanted to tease her. โ€œIs that all you have to say?โ€

Elizabeth met his eyes. โ€œWhat?โ€

Alexander straightened up with his hands in his pockets, casually saying, โ€œTreat me to a meal or something. Just saying thank you is too insincere, isnโ€™t it?โ€

โ€œThen, when grandpa gets better, Iโ€™ll treat you to a meal,โ€ Elizabeth said.

Alexander smiled. โ€œAlright.โ€

โ€œAnd then, weโ€™ll apply for the divorce,โ€ she added.

Alexander fell silent. Once again, he felt that in this game of marriage, it was Elizabeth who wanted the divorce more.

โ€œElizabeth.โ€ At the door of the hospital room, Declan called her. His voice was cold, lacking its usual affection.

Elizabeth turned to look at Declan and immediately said, โ€œDad.โ€

Alexander took a step back, respectfully saying, โ€œMr. Percy.โ€

โ€œThank you for accompanying Elizabeth today. But I hope you wonโ€™t contact each other in the future.โ€ Declan glanced at Alexander, raising his face, his tone not very good.

Both Alexander and Elizabeth were stunned. Elizabeth tugged at Declanโ€™s arm. โ€œDad,โ€ she called softly.

โ€œWhat are you calling me for? Havenโ€™t you been hurt enough by him?โ€ Declan disregarded Alexanderโ€™s face and questioned. โ€œElizabeth, youโ€™re a girl and need to know what wellโ€ฆrespect is.โ€
