Chapter 26

“Does Elizabeth play golf?” Landon asked her.

Elizabeth shook her head. She was good at a lot of things, but golf? Not one of them. Learning it took patience, and she was never the patient type—unless it was about chasing Alexander.

Landon lit up when he heard she didn’t play. “Perfect! Joseph’s a golf pro. He can teach you!”

Joseph gave her a nod. “If you’re up for it.”

Seeing Declan so happy, she didn’t want to let him down, so she agreed.

The biggest golf course in Lisbun was on the outskirts. Joseph drove them all there. On the way, Declan and Landon were catching up, chatting away. Elizabeth sat in the front, snacking and making small talk with Joseph.

Outside the golf course, there were tons of luxury cars. She realized it was the weekend. It was a popular spot for wealthy young people to gather when looking for ways to pass the time.

Declan had already set everything up. When Elizabeth came out after changing, Declan and Landon were already playing. The sun was perfect, and the green grass was inviting.

Elizabeth wore a white and pink sports outfit, her hair in a ponytail. She had on light makeup that matched her outfit, making her look effortlessly stunning.

As she was about to head to the field, she suddenly heard someone say, “Alexander.”

She turned around, but there was no one in sight. Elizabeth thought she must’ve misheard.

“Mr. Stewart,” Elizabeth waved to Joseph, who was waiting for her.

“Just call me Joseph. ‘Mr. Stewart’ is too formal,” Joseph said.

“Alright.” Elizabeth agreed, and he started calling her by her first name too.

“Do you come here often?” Elizabeth asked.

Joseph nodded. “Yeah, got some social stuff here.”

“You really don’t know how to play at all?” Joseph asked.

Elizabeth nodded. She had no clue. But she was good at rock climbing, shooting, and skydiving.

“That’s good. Easier to teach beginners,” Joseph joked.

Elizabeth followed him, asking, “You came to my place just to thank me, right? No other reason?”

Chapter 26

“Worried that I might have feelings for you?” Joseph teased.

Elizabeth laughed, kind of admitting it.

Joseph handed her a golf club. “Don’t overthink it. Just have fun.”

He stood in the light, and for a moment, Elizabeth felt his energy.

Joseph patiently taught her golf. Elizabeth was smart and picked it up fast. Soon, she could play on her own. Occasionally, Joseph would come behind her to correct her posture, and every time, his ears would turn a bit red.

When Elizabeth saw him blushing, she couldn’t resist teasing, “Joseph, why are your ears red?”

Elizabeth was so stunning that any guy near her would turn red. A guy who didn’t get shy around her? That’d be weird.

Joseph cleared his throat, frowning a bit. He grabbed Elizabeth’s hand, trying to act cool. “In this position, you need to use less force.”

Elizabeth checked out Joseph up close. He was definitely handsome, with those long lashes. He and Alexander had different vibes. Joseph’s good looks were comforting, with a gentle touch. Alexander’s handsomeness was more rugged, with sharp features and a dangerous charm.

“Alexander, let’s try this position,”

Then that voice came again. Elizabeth looked up to the right, and when she met the man’s gaze, her heart skipped a beat.

Alexander, why is he here too? she thought.
