Unrepairable Love

Chapter 255

Alexander rubbed his forehead and said, “Yeah.” Elizabeth didn’t hold back and sneered, “You puder,” she handed the menu to Alexander.

Alexander glanced at his phone and said, “Weren’t you going to order non-spicy dishes for me?”

“I was joking,” Elizabeth laughed. He looked at her and said, “To line with anything.” Elizabeth ordered a few non-spicy dishes for him.

While waiting for the food, Alexander kept looking at his phone. Elizabeth sat across from him, watching him the whole time. She wondered if her staring made him look up. He seemed a bit confused. Elizabeth took a sip of tea.

She realized the day wasn’t as tough as she thought it would be. She used to think divorcing Alexander would devastate her. But it didn’t. Instead, she felt relieved and noticed they were more relaxed around each other now.

“Would you be sad if we got divorced?” Elizabeth asked. Alexander glanced at her and said, “No.” Elizabeth was silent for a moment, then smiled. Even though she expected that answer, hearing it felt harsh.

“I don’t seem as sad as I thought I’d be,” she said seriously. Alexander’s eyes darkened, and he gripped his cup tightly. “Ms. Percy, your heart left me long ago.”

Elizabeth smiled lazily. “True. The best way to get over someone is to fall for someone else.” Alexander felt inexplicably annoyed.

“Alexander, I used to be so foolish,” Elizabeth said, staring at him. “I thought I’d die if I left you.” Alexander snorted and said nothing.

“Now it seems leaving you only makes me more carefree!” she said seriously.

The waiter came in and started serving the dishes. Alexander spoke with a bad tone, “Ms. Percy, you’re always carefree, never letting yourself suffer.”

“Marrying you these years has been a big loss,” Elizabeth said sarcastically, sipping her tea. Alexander said nothing, looking at the spicy dishes, feeling his stomach churn. Is this even edible? he thought.

“Actually, I really like spicy food,” Elizabeth muttered. Alexander drank water and said, “I doubt it.” Elizabeth usually cooked very bland food.

“It’s because your stomach is bad that I cooked bland,” she said immediately. Alexander paused, feeling something strange in his heart.

“And I really love to have fun. I like seeing mountains and waters, and exploring the world,” Elizabeth raised an eyebrow.

“Including clubbing and playing with men?” Alexander added. Elizabeth nodded seriously. “Yes, including all that.”

“So her liking Alexander was serious and genuine.” For Alexander, she even stopped having fun.

“The most important thing,” Elizabeth glanced at Alexander, Alexander waited for her to continue. Thinking of this, Elizabeth felt a bit sad. She looked into Alexander’s eyes, her tone softening.

“I really like swimming,” she said gently. But to save Alexander, she couldn’t swim anymore. She hoped one day she could overcome her inner fear.

“Why did you stop swimming?” Alexander asked calmly. Elizabeth looked at him, gripping her utensils tightly.

“You don’t know?” she asked. “Should I?” Alexander retorted.
