Chapter 511

Alexander won’t let Esme go, and neither will the Tudor family. In the silence, Elara heard Alexander say, “Elizabeth is gone.” Thinking of Elizabeth’s determined back when she left, Alexander felt deep heartache.

“Gone?” Elara asked, confused.

Alexander nodded. “I tried to stop her, but she didn’t stay. She went abroad.”

At this, Elara chuckled, understanding. Elizabeth was going abroad.

“Celine had an accident,” she told Alexander. “So, Elizabeth didn’t leave.”

Alexander was stunned. “Celine had an accident? What happened to her?” he asked, wondering what had happened while he was out cold.

Elara said seriously, “The rain was too heavy that day, and there was a car accident on the way back, a chain collision. Celine was involved.”

Alexander was shocked and asked, “Is Celine seriously hurt?”

“The news hasn’t been released yet, but according to insiders, it doesn’t look good,” Elara said with a complicated expression. Elara had met Declan and wanted to ask about the situation, but Declan ignored her and ran off when he saw her. Elara felt helpless, knowing they had wronged the Percy family, and felt too embarrassed to ask further.

“And Elizabeth?” Alexander’s expression grew more complex. Elizabeth and Celine had the best relationship, and Elizabeth was also Celine’s favorite. If something happened to Celine, what would Elizabeth do? Could she handle the pressure? Alexander thought.

The phone on the bedside table rang again. Elara said with a tone of irritation, “During the days you were unconscious, Esme kept calling and texting you. She even called me. I answered once and told Esme not to contact you again. But she didn’t listen and came to the hospital twice to see you, and I refused her.”

Elara added, “Alexander, as your mother, it’s my responsibility to educate you. I’m warning you once again, cut ties with Esme completely! You must handle this cleanly!”

Elara was so stern that Alexander didn’t dare disobey. Even if Elara hadn’t said anything, Alexander would have cut ties with Esme himself. He hated deception the most, and Esme had played him.

Alexander picked up his phone and scrolled through the messages. Most of them were from Esme.

Esme: [I really know I was wrong. I’m sorry; I love you.]

Esme: [Alexander, forgive me. Even if we can’t be partners in the future, I still want to be your friend. Please, give me another chance, okay?]

Esme: [I didn’t mean to deceive you. I just wanted you to notice me]

She had sent many messages. But no matter the reason, deceiving him and her best friend Elizabeth was still her fault. Alexander deleted all the messages from Esme.

“Elara, has Alexander woken up?” Kieran’s voice came from outside the door.

Alexander looked up to see Kieran walking in with a lot of things, dressed in a black suit.

“Alexander, you’re awake?” Kieran nudged Alexander’s arm and smiled. “You sure slept long enough!”
