Unrepairable Love Chapter 325
โWere close? Nah, not really,โ Elizabeth kept munching, clearly not in the mood for chit-chat.
Alexander can be a jerk, but we go way back, Kieran said, his voice low. Elizabeth glanced up and gave Kieran a small smile.
Kieran grinned back and asked, โSo, can you help me out?โ
Elizabeth shot him down, โGet lost.โ
โDonโt be so cold-hearted,โ Kieran pleaded.
Elizabeth finished her last bite, then tossed her knife and fork aside. She grabbed her bag and headed out, with Kieran trailing behind. Just as Elizabeth was about to pay, Kieran quickly said, โPut it on my tab.โ
Elizabeth raised an eyebrow and then turned away, ignoring him. She went downstairs, and Kieran followed. โCan you help me get in touch with Lila? I feel like sheโs got something against me. I havenโt really talked to her much, so I donโt even know what I did wrong.โ In the elevator, Kieran crossed his arms and muttered.
Elizabeth felt too awkward to explain that it was because he and Alexander were buddies.
โMr. Getty, with all your charm, you canโt win over Lila? Come on, you got this.โ Elizabeth patted Kieran on the shoulder and then left him in the elevator as she walked out.
Kieran caught up, but Elizabeth was already in her car. She smiled at Kieran and said, โKieran, Iโm not gonna help you with this. Just give it up.โ
Kieran said angrily, โElizabeth, how can you be like this!โ
Elizabeth didnโt respond, knowing Kieranโs outburst was just frustration. On the way home, Elizabeth told Lila about it, and Lila couldnโt stop laughing.
โWhy would Kieran suddenly want to work with me?โ Lila was puzzled.
โYouโre gorgeous and talented. Who wouldnโt want to work with you? Anyone who says otherwise is just lying,โ Elizabeth snorted.
Lila pouted, โTrue.โ
Elizabeth laughed and said, โLila, keep it low-key!โ
Lila brushed her hair. โIโm meeting Joseph with my agent tomorrow. Elizabeth, Iโm doing this for you.โ
โThanks a bunch,โ Elizabeth clasped her hands together.
Lila said, โJust focus on driving. I have a night shoot to get to!โ
โTake care.โ After the pleasantries, Elizabeth hung up.
Chapter 325
Elizabeth thought of Kieranโs frustrated look and couldnโt help but laugh. She thought, To Kieran, arenโt women just objects? Turns out even the mighty Kieran has something he canโt handle.
Her phone suddenly rang. Elizabeth was about to head home, but after seeing the text, she drove straight to Base M. Elizabeth scanned her face and fingerprint to enter Base M.
Felix waved at Elizabeth from the lobby and said, โMs. Percy, three years ago, the Serenity Leaf entered the Lishun market. Later, it was bought by an anonymous merchant. I found the contact info for this merchant and reached out to him.โ
Elizabeth gazed at the beautiful Serenity Leaf photo, finding it hard to believe it was a medicinal herb.
โWhat did he say?โ Elizabeth asked Felix.
Felix scratched his head and replied, โHeโs not willing to sell the Serenity Leaf.โ
Elizabeth asked, โWhy? Is the price not right, or does the Serenity Leaf have special meaning to him?โ
โHe just said itโs not for sale, no matter the price,โ Felix repeated the manโs response.
Elizabeth frowned.
Felix asked, โMs. Percy, do you really need this Serenity Leaf? Can we use a substitute?โ
Elizabeth crossed her arms and stared at the large screen showing Serenity Leaf, deep in thought. โNo. It has to be this Serenity Leaf. This is what Grant wants to give to Celine, and I promised Grant.โ
Set up a meeting with him. No matter what, I need to get this Serenity Leaf. Elizabeth said firmly.
