Unrepairable Love Chapter 524
โJust kicked her out like that? Arenโt you worried sheโll come back with her family?โ Alexander asked Elara, barely paying attention as he watched the news.
Elara snorted. โYou think itโs funny, donโt you? If I hadnโt shown up, what would you have done?โ
โIโd have done the sameโthrown her and her stuff out, maybe even less politely,โ Alexander replied, still scrolling through his phone for info on Sheldon and the research institute where Elizabeth worked.
Elara shot him a glare. โIf you were that kind of person, I wouldnโt have found her in this room.โ
โShe was only here for a few minutes,โ Alexander said, finally looking at Elara. โWerenโt you not coming?โ
โI just finished a dinner meeting and was passing by. I have something to tell you about Elizabeth,โ Elara said, pouring herself a glass of water.
โJadeite Tower?โ Alexander interrupted.
Elara was stunned. โHow did you know?โ
โKieran came by,โ Alexander said matter-of-factly.
Elara laughed. โKieranโs always got the latest scoop.โ
โSo, whatโs your plan?โ she asked.
โHer inauguration ceremony needs to be grand,โ Elara reminded him.
โI know,โ Alexander replied.
โBut it canโt be too over the top. Elizabethโs still pretty resistant to you,โ Elara said.
Is there still a future for Elizabeth and Alexander? Even if they donโt end up together, could they at least be friends? They shouldnโt be at odds like before! Elara thought hopefully.
โI know, thanks, Mom,โ Alexander said politely. He didnโt mention his plans to leave the hospital. If she knew, sheโd definitely be upset.
โAlright, since you know, Iโll head back,โ Elara said, looking busy. But Alexander had no idea what she was busy with.
The room finally quieted down. Alexander asked Nolan to find out whoโd be at the inauguration ceremony tomorrow. Thereโd be several big names from the research institute, some of Sheldonโs friends, and a bunch of reporters. Alexander started to form a plan.
The next day, Elizabeth woke up to encouraging messages in the family group chat.
Celine: [I canโt be there, but I wish you the best.] Grant: [If Celine isnโt going, I wonโt either! But I sincerely wish you well!] Rose: [Thereโs a major jewelry exhibition in Lisbon, so Iโm super busy. Sorry! I wish you all the best in your new role.] David: [Iโve been running between the office and the hospital, but Iโll come if I can. This is your first big role, and I wish you all the best and hope you meet people who will help you!]
Elizabeth smiled at their messages. It was good that everyone was busy; if they were all free, it would mean something was wrong at home.
Elizabeth: [Got all your blessings, thank you everyone! Iโll be back soon!]
After sending the message, Elizabeth quickly got ready.
At Jadeite Tower, Sheldon had arranged a grand setup for Elizabeth, with the entire reception hall filled with news about her and the research institute. Elizabethโs personal photo matched the instituteโs theme, and just looking at her picture made people feel good. The photo was taken when she joined the institute. She was wearing a lab coat and smiling slightly at the camera, a very standard ID photo, but still beautiful.
Elizabeth was backstage doing her makeup, and Sheldon had ordered coffee for her, taking good care of her. Elizabeth looked at the questions the reporters were going to ask and already had answers in mind. Seemingly ordinary questions, but each one was actually quite tricky!
