Unrepairable Love
Chapter 371
Louis was on his knees, writhing in pain. “You!” He jabbed a finger at Elizabeth, his whole body buzzing like he’d stuck it in a socket. He couldn’t get a word out, and his body was totally on the fritz.
Elizabeth had just wanted to give him a little lesson with a silver needle. But then Louis had to go and drop the Serenity Leaf. So, she figured, why not just stab him outright? Louis was such a loser!
Elizabeth yanked the dagger back and shoved the door open. The bodyguards outside gawked at her, totally stunned. Elizabeth flashed a sly grin, her fingers lightly brushing the faces of the two guards.
‘Man, folks from Nyxonia sure got the looks. Even the bodyguards are hot!’ she mused. Elizabeth made a quick exit.
It wasn’t until the bodyguards saw Louis sprawled on the floor that they snapped out of it. “Stop!” they yelled. Elizabeth turned and blew them a kiss. “You ain’t catching me. If I were you, I’d save Louis first.” With that, she bolted for the emergency exit.
One of the guards barked, “I’ll check on the boss, you go after her. Alert everyone, she took out the boss!” Soon, alarms were blaring all over the hotel. Elizabeth casually ditched the dagger in a random trash can. She took the emergency stairs down to the twentieth floor, then hopped in the elevator to the first floor.
The lobby was packed with people who’d gotten the alert, blocking her way. Elizabeth strutted towards the exit. “Hold up!” someone shouted, “We need to check you!”
Elizabeth turned and replied in perfect foreign language, “Sorry, no Nyxonian language.” They gave her the once-over. “What’s up? Need a band? My boyfriend’s outside; we’re off for dinner,” she added in the same language. “Probably not her,” someone muttered. Elizabeth smirked. “Get lost,” a guy snapped.

Elizabeth nodded and quickly turned to leave. Just then, a huge dude yelled, “That’s her!” Elizabeth glanced back; it was the bodyguard from Louis’ room! She picked up the pace. The crowd behind her started chasing. Elizabeth dashed outside.
At the hotel entrance, she scanned the area and spotted a black car parked nearby. The folks in the car noticed her too. Elizabeth was about to make a run for it, but the bodyguards closed in. She was cornered.
Just as she was about to be trapped, a car came screeching towards them. The headlights were blinding, and it was barreling down like it had no brakes. Someone yelled, “Move!” The car was about to plow into them.
As everyone scrambled, the car screeched to a halt in front of Elizabeth, and the door swung open. Elizabeth peeked inside and froze. It wasn’t Felix. “Get in!” Alexander’s voice was icy and sharp.
Elizabeth glanced back; someone shouted, “We’ve been duped!” No time to think, she jumped in the car. They sped away from the hotel entrance. Elizabeth looked back; the crowd was left in the dust.
“Why you?” she asked, staring at Alexander behind the wheel.
