Unrepairable Love
Chapter 624
Ivan got out of the car and saw Alexander, which was expected. But seeing Alexander leave so quickly did surprise him a bit. Is the Percy Family really so heartless that they refuse to let Alexander in?
“Ivan, what are you doing here?” Elizabeth was a bit surprised. Declan’s birthday wasn’t even mentioned to Ivan.
“He wants to pursue you, how could he not come?” Alexander directly answered Elizabeth’s question.
Ivan smiled. “This is a great opportunity. Mr. Tudor is here, how could I not come?” To be honest, that’s exactly what Ivan was thinking. Coincidentally, Alexander was thinking the same thing. He didn’t say anything because he saw Elizabeth’s hesitation. Today is Declan’s birthday, and he didn’t want to make things difficult for her or ruin Declan’s birthday. He wanted to pursue Elizabeth, and there was plenty of time for that; he could take it slow. As for what Elizabeth said, Alexander would keep it in mind.
The car drove away, and he watched the Percy Family house fade into the distance through the window. He knew deeply that the harm he had caused Elizabeth would take a lifetime to make up for. If he couldn’t get her to come back to him in this lifetime, then he wouldn’t marry anyone else; that was his bottom line.
“Mr. Tudor, what if Elizabeth agrees to have dinner with Mr. Shawn?” Nolan was a bit nervous for Alexander.
“Only friends would be introduced to the parents.” Alexander looked down at his phone, the screen illuminating his face. And his eyes were still red. Compared to the years of anxiety and entanglement, today’s conversation was the most heartbreaking for him.
He put down his phone and looked out the window. “Nolan, why didn’t anyone remind me back then?”
Nolan was silent for a few seconds and glanced at Alexander. “Mr. Tudor, your status is right there. No one would go against Alexander’s choices or his way of doing things.”
Alexander frowned. He didn’t know when he started to hate that phrase. These words that elevated him so high felt like knives pushing him forward. He rubbed his temples, feeling so frustrated that he just wanted to drown his sorrows in alcohol.
When Nolan dropped him off at home, he specifically reminded Alexander, “Mr. Tudor, if you’re going out to drink, remember to eat something, or you’ll get a stomachache.” He didn’t know if Alexander heard him, but he only heard the sound of the door closing.

He returned to the car, looking at the empty villa, and smiled helplessly. In the past, when Nolan asked where to go, whether to return to the villa, Alexander seemed to be avoiding something and didn’t even want to mention it. Now that he was back in this house, how did he feel?
Alexander collapsed onto the sofa, looking at the empty living room. He thought he should have been used to this terrible environment by now, but he found that the longer he stayed, the colder it felt. This house had no warmth at all.
Alexander pondered, ‘How did Elizabeth spend these three years alone? How did she get through those nights of power outages, storms, and heavy rain?’ Thinking of this, Alexander hated himself even more. He had hurt Elizabeth so deeply. He was a complete bastard.
Alexander kicked the coffee table hard, and the empty room immediately echoed. And he couldn’t hold it together anymore. He then got up and went to the bar, opened a bottle of wine, and drank it in one gulp. His throat tingled, and he looked at the wall behind the sofa, thinking again of that sunset painting. He wanted to make another one and hang it there for the wall was too empty.
