Unrepairable Love Chapter 463
When Angela first met Alexander, it was at Lisbon University where he was giving a lecture. She was lost and ran into him; she was on the phone outside. He ended up giving her directions. After class, it started pouring, and she didnโt have an umbrella. Alexanderโs assistant handed her one.
โAngela, did I just see you bump into Mr. Tudor? Is he your target, right?โ her friend teased, poking her arm.
Angelaโs face turned bright red. โOh, stop it! Thereโs no way someone like me could be with Mr. Tudor.โ
Her friend just smiled and stayed quiet. Angela glanced at the elevator entrance, her heart racing as she thought about Alexanderโs touch.
Elizabeth went back to her room. She flopped onto the bed, staring at the moving sea outside the window, feeling drained. Kicking off her shoes, she was ready to hide under the covers and call it a night.
But then she got a text from Alexander:
Alexander: [Come out. Letโs talk.]
Elizabeth was annoyed. She didnโt have much to say to him.
Alexander: [I know you saw my message. Elizabeth, Iโm on the third door. Come see me.]
She wasnโt about to knock on a manโs door in the middle of the night, especially since they were divorced and practically strangers, even if they were at the same event.
Her phone buzzed again.
Alexander: [Elizabeth.]
She stared at the message, just her name. He didnโt say anything else. Her heart felt a gentle tug.
Over the years, the hardest thing was when Alexander called her. It always seemed like he had something important to say, but it was usually just silence, criticism, or complaints.
She turned over.
Alexander: [You and Ivan arenโt right for each other.]
Elizabeth: [Thatโs between me and Ivan,]
Alexander: [Iโm saying this for your own good. Heโs still young and lives on his familyโs money!]
Elizabeth: [Donโt act like this is for me. If you cared, why didnโt you treat me well these past three years?]
Her question left him speechless. For a moment, he didnโt know what to say.
Elizabeth pressed on: [Alexander, Do you know how hard these three years hurt? You dismissed my feelings!]
She gripped her phone tightly, feeling a flood of emotions. But after a while, she swallowed them all. No need, no point.
Elizabeth: [The best thing for us is to stay out of each otherโs lives.]
She sent the message. Suddenly, there was a knock on the door. She looked outside. Who is it? Alexander? Ivan? she wondered. She went to the door, about to look through the peephole. Then she heard a manโs voice, โElizabeth, open the door. I know youโre in there.โ
