Chapter 652

“We’re still like we were in high school; every time I got hurt, you were always there behind me.” Alexander knew Elizabeth didn’t want to hear it. But he really wanted to say these words. Elizabeth had told him what was in her heart, but he had never been honest with her. Just like he had never told her that he loved her.

“Elizabeth, can you continue to be romantic and bright, and come quickly to me, please?” He wanted to reach out and touch her. But the moment Elizabeth turned to look at him, his hand froze in mid-air. The emotion in her eyes was so unfamiliar that it made him feel uneasy and helpless. What is love? Love is a hand reaching out but not daring to touch. Alexander began to care about Elizabeth’s emotions. And he was powerless.

“Come back to you?” She repeated his words, her voice very soft. “Do you really think a patched-up heart can be mended with just a few words?” Elizabeth looked into his eyes. She saw love in Alexander’s eyes, but there was no love in hers anymore.

“Coming back to you, I would only want to take revenge for the years of hurt you’ve caused me. I wish I could crush your company, take everything from you, and leave you with nothing.” She truly hated Alexander. How could she possibly forgive him? Even if he knelt a hundred times, it wouldn’t be enough!

“I can give you everything I have, as long as you want it.” Alexander’s expression became serious. Elizabeth laughed. “Alright, then transfer 15% of the Tudor Group’s shares to me first, let me see your sincerity.”

Alexander looked at her eyebrows and eyes. He wished she would ask for something. “You know me well, I’m serious about it. Elizabeth, if I give you 15% of the shares, would you really dare to take them?” Elizabeth looked at him. Alexander’s face was full of “take it all,” which made her fall silent. To Alexander, what did money matter? He had lost his beloved Elizabeth and a warm family that should have been his. He drank until he ended up in the hospital, and the only one by his side was his assistant. He missed the days when Elizabeth was by his side and missed waking up every day with her sleeping next to him. He missed the loving look in her eyes whenever she looked at him. He missed the warm scenes of her cooking for him and waiting for him at home. He missed everything from the past. He begged God to give Elizabeth back to him and begged Elizabeth to look at him again.

“I dare to take it,” Elizabeth answered him. Alexander nodded. He then called Nolan, “Nolan, I want to transfer…”. There was no expression on Elizabeth’s face when she heard him say he would transfer 15% of his shares to her.

The banquet was noisy, but Alexander’s voice was so clear. He didn’t care about the money! All he wanted now was Elizabeth. Before he finished the call, Elizabeth stood up to leave. “Elizabeth, what else do you want?” he asked. Elizabeth’s steps halted; she looked into the distance, listening to his words, only feeling irony. “I want everything, as long as it’s from you,” she said and then left.
