Chapter 796

Soon, a familiar figure, Alexander, appeared outside the door. Elizabeth looked at him in surprise. She slowly stood up but accidentally fell due to her lack of strength. Fortunately, Felix was quick and rushed over to support her. Elizabeth tightly grabbed Felix’s arm and instinctively leaned into his embrace. Her legs were weak, and she couldn’t stand steadily. She had just taken her medication and should feel better in a while.

Alexander quietly watched the scene. He saw Felix gently holding Elizabeth’s waist and saying, “You should sit down. Why are you getting up?”

Elizabeth glanced at Alexander and smiled, “Mr. Tudor is here. I should at least get up and be polite. After all, he has invested so much money.”

Alexander remained silent.

“Mr. Tudor, why are you here?” Elizabeth asked.

Alexander pursed his lips, took the flashlight from the security guard, and signaled the guard to leave. He walked in, shining the flashlight around, his voice cold, “I happened to be passing by and heard there was a power outage. I came to check.”

Elizabeth smiled, her gaze at Alexander gradually showing emotion. Was he just here to check? Or was he here to see her? The security guard had clearly said, “She’s here!” Moreover, the guard’s tone had been somewhat excited when he said it. It seemed they had been looking for her for a while. In other words, he was worried about her, right? But Alexander was too proud to admit it.

“You’ve checked, and I’m fine. Mr. Tudor, aren’t you leaving?” Elizabeth continued to ask.

Alexander remained silent. The flashlight once again fell on Elizabeth. Elizabeth slightly turned her head. Felix immediately said, “What are you doing? It’s hurting her eyes!” The strong light of the flashlight shifted to Felix, and Alexander’s gaze darkened, “You look really young, like a college student.”

“What do you mean?” Felix immediately asked.

Elizabeth looked at Alexander with a cold expression.

“You two are not suitable,” Alexander suddenly said. He didn’t believe in pure friendship between men and women. Moreover, Felix’s earlier gesture of supporting Elizabeth clearly showed that this had been going on for a while.

Elizabeth laughed. Felix was quickly speechless, “Mr. Tudor, you can be jealous, but please be rational.”

“Felix, aren’t we quite suitable?” Elizabeth raised an eyebrow. In the dim light, her face looked particularly enchanting.

Felix was at a loss for words. Alexander quietly watched Elizabeth.

“Felix and I could date,” Elizabeth smiled at Alexander, “What do you think, Mr. Tudor?”

Alexander’s grip on the flashlight tightened. Felix sensed the tension between the two and said, “How about I step out? You two can talk? I’ll take you home later?”

Before Elizabeth could speak, Alexander said, “If you have any sense, you won’t come back.”

Elizabeth snapped, “Felix is my subordinate. It’s not your place to order him around, Mr. Tudor.”

Alexander sneered and immediately asked, “I’m a shareholder of the institute now. I have something to discuss with you. It’s reasonable to ask Felix to step out, isn’t it?”

“Mr. Tudor, what can’t be discussed during the day? It’s nine o’clock at night. Do you think it’s appropriate for a man and a woman to talk alone?” Elizabeth questioned him.

“What, are you scared?” Alexander tilted his head, a smirk forming on his lips.

Elizabeth admitted that Alexander looked very handsome like this. But at this moment, Alexander’s smile also made him look like a madman. It seemed as if Alexander might do something crazy at any second.
