Unrepairable Love Chapter 360
Alexander hustled over to where Elizabeth had been sitting just a second ago. But when he got there, she was already MIA. He scowled and scanned the area. A waiter approached and asked, โNeed anything, sir?โ
โYeah, whereโd the lady who was here go?โ Alexander shot back.
The waiter pointed outside. โShe just bounced!โ
Alexanderโs eyes darted outside, catching a glimpse of Elizabeth hopping into a car. He bolted after her, convinced it was her. Just as he was about to jump into his own car, Nolan showed up. โMr. Tudor, whatโs the deal?โ
โI think I saw Elizabeth,โ Alexander said, ice-cold.
Nolan looked confused. โMs. Percy? No freakinโ way. I just saw her at the hospital before swinging by here. Sheโs probably still there.โ
Nolan followed Alexanderโs gaze and got serious. โMr. Tudor, we have other things to handle. Letโs not waste time.โ
Alexander went quiet. Nolan was right; Elizabeth should be at the hospital.
โMr. Tudor, your arm?โ Nolan asked, eyeing Alexanderโs injury.
Alexander shook it off. โItโs nothing.โ
โDid our stuff get delivered?โ Alexander asked.
Nolan nodded. โYeah, Mr. Tudor, Serenity Leaf is at the auction site.โ
โLouis is all about Serenity Leaf, so let him snag it at the auction today,โ Alexander said, cool as a cucumber. Louis wanted it, and Alexander had it. But Louis was too principled to take gifts. So, Alexander sent it to the auction house, letting Louis win it fair and square. This way, Louis could take it without feeling weird and remember Alexanderโs generosity. Alexander wasnโt cheap when it came to valuable things. It showed he was serious about their partnership.
โI havenโt even had my coffee yet!โ Felix whined from the car.
Elizabeth glanced back and sighed. โSmall world, Alexanderโs here.โ
Felix was shocked. โMr. Tudorโs in Nyxonia too?โ
โYeah, here for some business,โ Elizabeth said, nonchalantly.
Felix pouted. โYou and Mr. Tudor, always running into each other. Itโs like fate or something.โ
Elizabeth shot Felix a cold look, her eyes full of disdain.
If Felix said one more word, she was ready to deck him.
Felix chuckled. โI picked up the dress. You can try it on later. Everyone at this auction is high society. They might look low-key, but theyโre all rocking luxury brands. Even the plain dresses are custom-made.โ
Elizabeth leaned on her hand, staring out the window, barely listening.
Felix kept going. โI also borrowed some haute couture jewelry. Boss, youโll be the most stunning woman tonight!โ
Elizabeth glanced at Felix, feeling a headache coming on. โWhy so flashy? Weโre here to win Serenity Leaf.โ
โTo win Serenity Leaf, you gotta go all out. Oh, and tonightโs auction is a masked one,โ Felix added.
Elizabeth perked up. โWhat do you mean?โ
Felix explained, โHalf an hour before the auction, thereโs a masked cocktail party. Everyone mingles and socializes. After that, everyone gets a number and heads to their auction rooms for the bidding.โ
Elizabeth was surprised. โWe donโt sit together?โ
โNope,โ Felix shook his head.
Elizabeth smirked. โSo many gimmicks?โ
