Chapter 362

As soon as they rolled into the venue, they noticed everyone was rocking masks. Elizabeth and Felix shared a look. They were just here for the auction, not this social scene. They found a low-key spot in the corner, plopped down, and braced themselves for a long half-hour.

Just then, someone outside hollered, โ€œLouis!โ€ Elizabeth swirled her wine glass, glancing outside with zero interest. Everyone had masks on, except Louis. โ€œWhyโ€™s he mask-free?โ€ Elizabeth wondered aloud. Then they saw the organizer hand Louis a mask, and he slapped it on quick.

Elizabeth then spotted another dude next to Louis. This guy was all suited up, tall and lean. Elizabeth squinted. His mask covered half his face, making him hard to ID. The guy felt Elizabethโ€™s stare and looked her way. Their eyes locked, and Elizabeth froze. The guy slipped one hand in his pocket and grabbed a champagne from a waiter with the other. He looked at Elizabeth and frowned a bit. Elizabeth bit her lip and gripped her wine glass tighter. This guy looked like Alexander! Elizabeth quickly looked away. Alexander snapped out of it when Louis called him.

โ€œFelix,โ€ Elizabeth suddenly said.

Felix nodded. โ€œWhatโ€™s up?โ€

โ€œCan I borrow your coat?โ€ Elizabeth asked.

Felix was confused but handed over his coat. Elizabeth threw it on, mainly to hide the butterfly tattoo on her back. If that guy was really Alexander, she didnโ€™t want him recognizing her.

โ€œI gotta take a call,โ€ Felix told Elizabeth.

Elizabeth nodded and watched him leave. Her mask today was a full-face one, like a cute little fox, super pretty.

Probably because she was too pretty and had a killer figure, she quickly caught the eye of other guys. As soon as Felix left, someone came over. The guy greeted Elizabeth in the local lingo. Elizabeth got it but didnโ€™t want to chat, so she smiled and said, โ€œI ainโ€™t from Nyxonia, so I donโ€™t get it. My bad.โ€ The guy paused and then switched to English, โ€œYou are very beautiful.โ€

โ€œThanks,โ€ Elizabeth nodded, being polite. The guy had a drink with her and then bailed. But right after, another dude came up. Elizabeth was getting kinda annoyed.

โ€œHey, Iโ€™ve been watching you since you walked in. Youโ€™re gorgeous, just my type.โ€

People from Nyxonia were straight-up like that, no beating around the bush. Elizabeth just thanked him.

โ€œWhere are you from?โ€ he suddenly asked.

Elizabeth frowned. She glanced at Louis. Feeling cautious, she lied, โ€œIโ€™m from Lindell Harbor.โ€

The guy replied, โ€œPeople from Lindell Harbor are very beautiful.โ€

โ€œAre you here for work or fun?โ€ he asked again.

Elizabeth was surprised. โ€œYour English is good.โ€

โ€œYeah, I have a buddy who teaches me English. Iโ€™m into it!โ€ His English was a bit choppy, but Elizabeth got it.

โ€œMy nameโ€™s Ronald Hernandez,โ€ Ronald said.

Elizabeth nodded and smiled gently. โ€œIโ€™m Emily.โ€

โ€œCan you take off your mask?โ€ Ronald asked bluntly.

Elizabeth was taken aback. โ€œSorry,โ€ she shook her head.

Ronald sounded bummed, โ€œAlright.โ€ Ronald probably figured out Elizabeth wasnโ€™t up for chatting, so he left without much fuss. Elizabeth sighed in relief. They were too direct, and she wasnโ€™t feeling it. She just hoped the half-hour would fly by.

Seeing Felix still wasnโ€™t back, Elizabeth got up and headed to the reโ€ฆ
