Chapter 874

โ€œNo,โ€ Alexander answered honestly.

โ€œWhere have you taken her?โ€

Like Dream City, a place even she hadnโ€™t noticed. She was too curious about how he and Esme had been so in love for those three years. I only met her in Dream City. I havenโ€™t taken her anywhere else, Alexander could even swear to it.

โ€œElizabethโ€ฆ understand? Three years, you two.โ€

โ€œThree years, nothing happened between us.โ€ If he had to say he gave somethingโ€ฆ it was nothing more than a bit of money and patience.

โ€œEsme is now in a mental hospital because of you. What are you planning to do next?โ€ This was also a question Elizabeth was concerned about.

Alexander chuckled, โ€œI spared her life, as a matter of respect for Henty.โ€

โ€œElizabeth, I wonโ€™t let her die. But the suffering you endured, I will make her go through it all. That was his plan.โ€

Elizabeth didnโ€™t ask any more questions. She had nothing else to ask.

โ€œNow itโ€™s my turn to ask you a few questions.โ€ Alexander looked at her, his gaze intense.

Elizabeth shrugged, letting him ask whatever he wanted.

โ€œAfter our divorce, have you liked any of the men youโ€™ve been with?โ€ His eyes were sharp.

Elizabeth raised an eyebrow. Typical Alexander. He always asked tricky questions. Did he remember how many men she had met? She couldnโ€™t even remember herself.

โ€œYes, I quite liked Ivan,โ€ Elizabeth replied casually, looking down. She could feel the atmosphere around them sour immediately after she said that.

Alexander sneered. She was deliberately provoking him.

Was he the kind of person who was easily provoked? He wasnโ€™t. He had a much better temperโ€ฆ never. But undeniably, even if Elizabeth was trying to provoke him, he felt very angry.

โ€œJust because Ivan is your friend, I couldnโ€™t be with him,โ€ Elizabeth glanced sideways at Alexander, then lowered her head to continue playing on her phone.

โ€œYou still have some conscience,โ€ he replied.

Elizabeth immediately laughed, not even looking up. โ€œYou were quite conscientious when you were with my best friend.โ€ He could feel that Elizabethโ€™s words were harsh.

โ€œDo you know?โ€ Elizabeth suddenly looked up. Their eyes met, and Alexander waited for her to continue.

โ€œThe person I loved was with my best friend. At that time, I really wanted to die,โ€ Elizabeth frowned, unable to help but complain. Looking back now, she really didnโ€™t know how she got through it. She didnโ€™t dare go home to her parents, nor could she go and yell at Alexander. She bore it all alone.

Alexander looked down. The dim light around them made the guilt in his eyes almost overflow. โ€œElizabeth, Iโ€™m sorry.โ€

โ€œYou know, I donโ€™t want to hear it,โ€ Elizabeth turned away, not looking at him anymore. The damage was already done, and no amount of apologies could change that.

Elizabeth lay on the back of the sofa, lowering her eyes and rubbing her stomach. So hungry. Tired and hungry. This Christmas had been really rough. Elizabeth closed her eyes, still holding her phone. Elizabeth swallowed, thinking how nice it would be to have a pizza right now! Then she fell asleep.

Elizabeth turned over, the space around her empty. Elizabeth slightly opened her eyes. She was in Alexanderโ€™s room. Elizabethโ€™s hand grasped the familiar touch and scent of the silk quilt. She saw her phone and realized it was almost noon.

Looking at the sunny day outside, Elizabeth felt a bit dazed. She sighed and quietly got up.
