Chapter 719
Natalia looked up and said, โIโm quite surprised too. I always thought sheโฆโ
She had always thought that Elizabeth was just a useless pretty woman who only thought about love. But unexpectedly, Elizabeth had hidden depths.
โDo you get along well?โ Elliot asked again.
โWhat makes you think that?โ Natalia asked with a helpless smile.
Elliot thought for a moment and said very seriously, โShe was very protective of you just now.โ
Speaking of which, Elizabeth had said she would give Natalia the five-billion-dollar jewelry. Didnโt that mean she loves Natalia very much?
Natalia didnโt dare to speak, for she didnโt know if Elizabeth loved her. She only knew that she didnโt have the Percy familyโs blood in her. But the Percy family treated her very well.
Meanwhile, Blair, after learning that Elizabeth knew Kennedy, was like a deflated balloon, completely enveloped in gloom. She didnโt know what to say, and the onlookers around her all lowered their heads.
Someone said, โWerenโt you going to do the thing you just promised? Are you still going to do it?โ
Everyone exchanged glances and laughed. The atmosphere seemed to improve a bit, but most people had their own thoughts.
When Elizabeth came out, she saw a black Pagani parked at the entrance. She raised an eyebrow at the license plate; she didnโt need to look inside to know it was Alexander.
โMr. Tudor,โ Elizabeth said, standing by the car as the door automatically opened. โWhatโs up?โ
Alexander appearing here must mean he was waiting for her, and she didnโt bother to beat around the bush with him.
โGet in the car,โ Alexander said.
โI have things to do at the research institute,โ Elizabeth said.
Alexander was silent for a moment, then said, โJust get in first.โ
โNo,โ Elizabeth shook her head and took two steps back.
Alexander looked at her, his eyes complicated. She didnโt even want to get in his car.
Alexander sighed and didnโt force her, instead saying, โDonโt forget our agreement.โ
Chapter 719
Elizabeth smiled. โThatโs just Mr. Tudorโs one-sided agreement. I havenโt decided whether to go or not.โ Until she decided to go, it was all his one-sided agreement.
Alexander then chuckled lightly, tapping the steering wheel casually. โWinter, itโs really cold.โ
Elizabeth was silent. She could hear the sarcasm in his words.
โIf youโre afraid of the cold, donโt wait for me. You might catch a cold, Mr. Tudor.โ Then she walked away.
Alexander watched her departing figure, feeling both amused and helpless. Elizabeth had come in her purple Pagani today, which looked really cool. And she was a very skilled driver.
As Alexander watched her car leave, his phone rang. Nolan called. โMr. Tudor, thereโs an issue at the company. Please return quickly.โ
Alexander replied, โAlright. Cancel all the meetings tonight; I have plans.โ
Nolan continued, โMr. Tudor, the company resumed normal operations this afternoon. Thereโs a lot of work to handle. Are your plans tonight very important? We have a video conference with our international partners to reassure them. Should we cancel it?โ
Alexander looked up, his tone calm. โIโm going to see Elizabeth.โ
Nolan froze. Although it wasnโt the best time for Alexander to see Elizabeth, he believed Alexanderโs considerations.
โGot it.โ Nolan didnโt say anything more and hung up.
Alexanderโs eyes were deep. Work was important, but right now, Elizabeth was more important.
