Unrepairable Love

Chapter 281

Esme looked amazing tonight. Maybe it was her illness that made her seem both sweet and fragile, stirring up a sense of pity. As soon as she walked in, she headed straight for Alexander. The crowd around Alexander parted for her. Standing in front of him, Esme smiled slightly and said, “Alexander.”

“What are you doing here?” Alexander was surprised. “Why isn’t Esme resting in the hospital?”

“I’m here to attend the event with you,” Esme replied.

“You’re not fully recovered,” Alexander said quietly.

Esme shook her head. “I’m fine.”

Since Alexander had divorced Elizabeth, Esme could now openly attend events with him. She wouldn’t miss a chance to make herself known!

“Ms. Tudor, who is this?” Molly asked, playing dumb.

Alexander glanced at Molly. “Do I really need to introduce Esme? The news about us has been everywhere.”

“Oh, a friend, right?” Molly smiled.

Esme looked at Alexander. Once again, he stayed silent when it came to introducing her. Esme hated this feeling.

“Alexander and I are more than just friends,” Esme said, raising her chin and looking at him, hoping he’d acknowledge her. “Alexander, tell them what our relationship is.”

Everyone looked at Alexander. All eyes were on him. Alexander frowned, feeling cornered. “This is an entertainment gala, not our personal stage. Why does Esme have to make a scene?” he thought. He glanced around, looking for Elizabeth. Elizabeth was facing away, eating as if nothing was happening.

“That bitch is causing trouble again,” Lila snapped.

Kieran laughed. “Even actresses curse?”

“I do more than curse. I even know martial arts,” Lila said, glaring at Esme.

Elizabeth was about to drink tea when Lila stopped her. “You just got divorced, and they’re already flaunting their love. Aren’t they afraid of karma?”

Kieran found Lila amusing. Noticing his look, Lila snapped, “Stay away from me.” Kieran was puzzled.

“How good can Alexander’s friends be?” Lila said bluntly.

Kieran felt wronged. “I’m really not a jerk.”

Lila ignored him. Elizabeth turned to Alexander and Esme. She saw Alexander say calmly, “My relationship with Ms. Russell is indeed more than just friends.”

Elizabeth crossed her arms, looking indifferent, feeling no emotional turmoil. Alexander met Elizabeth’s gaze. Her eyes were full of blessings and comfort. Alexander’s Adam’s apple moved as Esme happily took his hand.

‘Will Elizabeth no longer care about anything I do with Esme?’ Alexander thought, feeling a sharp pain in his heart. He suddenly pushed Esme’s hand away.
