Unrepairable Love

Chapter 391

In the end, it was Alexander who chucked the racket and coolly said, “I lost.”

“Mr. Tudor, throwing in the towel already? I haven’t even broken a sweat,” Kyle leaned against the net, smirking.

Alexander didn’t bite, just took a swig of water and shot a look at Elizabeth. Elizabeth was drenched, her face all red. She always felt there was something fishy between Kyle and Alexander.

“That’s it. I’m out too,” Elizabeth told Kyle. “I’m going to hit the showers and head home. Mr. Brooks, you can chat work stuff with my dad.”

“Need a lift home?” Kyle suddenly offered.

Elizabeth was caught off guard but quickly said, “Nah, I’m good. Thanks, Mr. Brooks.”

Elizabeth headed to the women’s locker room and took a quick shower. She changed into a fresh outfit. The top had a clever design with zippers both up and down. She habitually pulled the lower zipper down, showing off a little design.

Just as she was about to leave, she spotted Alexander at the door. He stood there, hands in his pockets, leaning against the wall, looking like a school kid. When he saw Elizabeth coming out, he lifted his head. Their eyes met, and Elizabeth popped a piece of candy in her mouth.

“Waiting for me?”

“Yeah, waiting for you,” he said straight up, not forgetting to check out her outfit.

Elizabeth cut to the chase, “What’s up?”

Alexander glanced towards the court for a second, then back at Elizabeth. “Stay away from Kyle.”

Elizabeth squinted. “In what way?”

“In every way.” Whether it was work stuff or personal, she should steer clear of Kyle.

“You know him well?” Elizabeth didn’t remember Alexander ever mentioning Kyle before. Elizabeth, just drop it. Trust me, stay away from him. It’s for your own good,” Alexander said seriously.

Elizabeth didn’t get it, but since Alexander made a point of saying it, she’d be more careful. “Got it.”

She was about to leave when Alexander suddenly called her back. Elizabeth looked puzzled.

Chapter 391

Alexander pursed his lips and pointed at her outfit. “The zipper.”

Elizabeth looked down and asked, “What about it?”

Alexander frowned, thinking, Doesn’t she think it’s too revealing? “Can’t you zip it up properly?” His tone was a bit grumpy.

Elizabeth ignored him and walked away without looking back.

Alexander watched her go, feeling all sorts of things. In his mind, Elizabeth had always been so rebellious. The obedience she showed during their marriage was all a front. No wonder the current Elizabeth was so determined; loving him had made her lose herself.

Nolan sent a text: [Mr. Tudor, Kyle is back.]

Pursing his lips, Alexander realized Nolan’s information had come too late; he had already seen Kyle. Kyle still looked the same as when they were younger, quiet and reserved, but his eyes were full of hostility when he looked at Alexander. It was like the whole world owed Kyle something.

Nolan: [Do u need someone 2 keep an eye on him?]

Alexander: [Yeah.]

Nolan: [Mr. Tudor, thr’s 1 more thng. Gabriel is on his last legs. Do u want 2 see him 1 last time?]

Alexander held his phone. He thought of what Esme had said to him, “Alexander, let’s put everything behind us. I don’t blame Gabriel anymore. Every time I see him, I remember that day and it scares me. Let’s not see him again, okay?”

Alexander glanced at Nolan’s text and put his phone away.
