Unrepairable Love Chapter 421
The flick of a lighter caught her attention. Elizabeth glanced up to see Alexander, head down, lighting a cigarette. He blew out a smoke ring, then pulled the cigarette away, looking weary. The vibe was somewhat spooky.
Elizabeth frowned, wanting to say something but holding back. She dropped her gaze and looked to the side. Alexander felt a pang in his chest. Back in the day, whenever he smoked, Elizabeth would make him put it out immediately. Now she just frowned and kept quiet.
โGot nothing to say?โ Alexander suddenly asked.
Elizabeth looked up, her eyes narrowing. โWhat should I say?โ
Alexander was stumped. He just stared at Elizabeth, his eyes growing complicated. Heโd never really looked at her like this before. Now he noticed how stunning she was, a knockout at first glance. Her eyes and brows held a fierce beauty. They locked eyes, but eventually, Elizabeth looked away first.
She was always like this, unable to handle Alexanderโs stare. From high school till now, it never changed, even after they divorced and she said she didnโt love him anymore. But whenever they locked eyes, Elizabeth would always look away first, unable to handle his gaze.
Alexander chuckled softly and took another drag of his cigarette. Elizabeth probably felt annoyed at herself for looking away first, so she grumbled, โSmoking all the time will make your breath stink.โ
โReally? I donโt smoke that much. You know that.โ Alexanderโs tone was calm.
Elizabeth looked at him quietly, then turned her gaze to the distance. โI donโt know.โ
Another awkward silence. After a while, Elizabeth seriously told Alexander, โAnyway, thanks for the Serenity Leaf. Itโs a rare and important herb for my grandma. When her research succeeds, weโll thank you properly.โ
Alexander just stared at her, letting the cigarette burn out slowly. He didnโt say a word.
