Unrepairable Love Chapter 282
Esme froze for a second, reaching for Alexanderโs arm but missing. Elizabeth quietly observed Alexander. He dusted off his clothes and glanced at Elizabeth.
โHenry,โ Alexander called out to Henry, who was approaching. Henry nodded and walked over to Esme.
โEsmeโs still sick. Take her back to the hospital. Too many people are here; something might happen,โ Alexander instructed.
Esme looked between Alexander and Elizabeth, who was chatting with Lila nearby. Esme bit her lip and pointed at Elizabeth, asking Alexander, โAre you sending me away because of her?โ
โNo,โ Alexander replied coldly.
Esme laughed, her eyes reddening. โAlexander, do you really mean that?โ
Alexander frowned. โEsme, just be good.โ
Esme laughed through her tears. โIsnโt it because Iโve been too good that you treat me like this?โ
Alexander ignored her and signaled Henry to handle it. Henry, though supportive of Esmeโs pursuit of love, knew this wasnโt the right time for a scene. Too many eyes were on them, and the media could get involved. Recently, the Russell family had worked hard to suppress news of Alexanderโs affair and Esme being the other woman. Both the Tudor and Russell families couldnโt afford another scandal.
โLetโs go. Iโll take you back to the hospital,โ Henry said, taking Esmeโs hand.
Esme shook her head. โIโm not going back!โ
Desperate, Esme asked Alexander, โYouโve divorced Elizabeth. Why canโt you give me a status? We love each other. Isnโt today perfect to make it official?โ She grabbed Alexanderโs arms urgently.
People nearby glanced over, curious. Elizabeth also looked over. Esme hugged Alexander tightly, facing Elizabeth. Her eyes met Elizabethโs with hostility. Elizabeth felt a sinking sensation watching them.
โWhat is Esme doing?โ Kieran asked, confused.
Lila crossed her arms, angry.
โIt seems to be raining outside,โ Elizabeth said suddenly.
Lila looked outside. โJust a light rain. Itโll stop soon.โ
Elizabeth nodded and walked to the window, lost in thought.
โYour ex-husband is being lovey-dovey with a bitch, and youโre looking at the scenery?โ Lila shook her head, baffled. Lila wondered if Elizabeth really didnโt care or was just pretending.
โWhat else should I do? Join them?โ Elizabeth laughed.
Lila pouted, โWhy not? Go join them.โ
Elizabeth sighed. She was just joking, but Lila took her seriously.
โAsk Alexander who heโd choose between you and Esme!โ Lila suggested.
Elizabeth pouted, โHeโd choose Esme. Sheโs his first love.โ
โSo what? He was married to you for three years. Youโre beautiful and stunning. He must have had feelings for you!โ Lila insisted. โRemember, in high school, he was more into you!โ
Elizabeth nodded, thinking Lila had a point. She looked at Lila, blinking. โThen why doesnโt he love me?โ
Lila was stunned.
