Chapter 436
โWe can get real tight,โ Kyle shot back.
Elizabeth chuckled. โNot interested.โ
โElizabeth,โ Kyle suddenly blurted out her name, making Elizabeth squirm even more. She thought, Iโm in disguise, and yet Kyleโs dead sure Iโm Elizabeth and Steve. Whatโs his deal?
โIโm not Elizabeth,โ she insisted, trying to keep her cover.
Kyle just grinned, cracked open a beer, and took a big swig. His Adamโs apple bobbed as he gulped, then he said, โSure, youโre not Elizabeth.โ
Elizabeth felt a wave of discomfort wash over her. She decided to go for another race. Since she was already here, might as well have some fun.
โAnother round?โ she asked Kyle.
Kyle shrugged, clearly not expecting her to want another race. โIโve been drinking.โ
Elizabeth sneered. She waved him off and headed down to the track. Kyle sipped his beer and watched her raceโฆ
He thought, Looks like Elizabeth really doesnโt remember me. I can never forget the first time I met her. Elizabeth, I know your secret. Kyleโs eyes lowered, and he smiled helplessly. He thought she was really clueless.
Elizabeth played until late before heading back. On the way, she spotted a 24-hour convenience store. Hungry, she went in to grab some food. She came out with her snacks and found a bench to sit on. There was a small, quiet plaza right across from her.
Elizabeth took a sip of soup, feeling warmth spread through her body. She propped her face on her hand, gazing into the distance and slowly chewing her food. A few cars zoomed by occasionally. It was already 2:30 in the morning. The sky was pitch black, no hint of dawn. Elizabeth took another sip of hot soup and leaned back on the bench.
Just then, she heard footsteps approaching. Someone was shouting, and another voice was trying to calm him down.
โWho does she think she is? If she dares to divorce me, Iโll kill her!โ
Letting go can be good too.
โCome on, couples have their ups and downs. Letting goโฆโ
โWho am I busting my ass for? Itโs all for her! Whatโs wrong with seeing other women?โ
Elizabeth rolled her eyes. She slowly turned her head and saw two seemingly drunk guys stumbling towards her. One had long hair and a scruffy beard, cursing, โShe needs to be taught a lesson!โ
โCouples should support each other. You need to sober up.โ
Hearing this, Elizabeth couldnโt help but take another look at the guy talking about mutual support. He seemed pretty refined.
Elizabeth looked forward again and smiled helplessly. She thought, They say birds of a feather flock together, but how did these two end up together?
Just as she was lost in thought, her foot got stepped on. She immediately pulled her foot back and looked up. It was the drunk guy. But the refined guy was already gone.
Elizabeth frowned and was about to speak when she heard the guy curse, โBitch!โ
Elizabeth stayed silent. This guy was drunk, and she didnโt want any trouble. She stood up, ready to leave. Suddenly, the guy grabbed her arm.
โWhat do you want?โ she asked coldly.
The guy pointed at her. โI think I know you.โ
โSorry, I donโt know you,โ Elizabeth shook off his arm and tried to leave.
The guy immediately blocked her way and said, โYouโre Elizabeth, the daughter of the Percy Family,โ
