Chapter 672

“Forget it,” Ivan gestured to Elizabeth not to rush forward.

“Why does Alexander get to do this?” Elizabeth questioned.

Ivan frowned. “He’s doing it on purpose, you know it well. Rushing up there now would just play into his hands.”

But Elizabeth couldn’t swallow this grievance. She thought, Why should I eat the dessert Alexander sent? If I don’t eat it, then he won’t let me leave? What kind of domineering behavior is this?

“Take all these desserts away,” Elizabeth ordered coldly.

The waitstaff remained unmoved. Then Elizabeth was really annoyed, her hand, pointing at the desserts, slowly clenching into a fist.

Ivan seemed to want to take them away, but Elizabeth stopped him. Elizabeth was defiant. They only listened to Alexander, didn’t they?

“Give it to me.” Elizabeth took the dessert from Ivan’s hand.

Ivan wanted to step forward again, but Elizabeth was already heading upstairs with the dessert. Ivan wanted to follow, but Elizabeth turned and said, “Ivan, if you’re going to me, then don’t follow me.”

Ivan immediately stopped in his tracks. Because he did indeed want to stop her.

Elizabeth went straight upstairs, and despite the waitstaff’s attempts to dissuade her, she pushed open Alexander’s private room door.

Inside the room, Magnolia was sitting in front of him. They seemed to be discussing something serious, and the atmosphere was heavy. Elizabeth’s arrival made the atmosphere even more tense.

Elizabeth stood at the door, holding the dessert, her gaze sweeping over Magnolia and landing on Alexander. Alexander had anticipated she would rush up. But he was surprised that she brought the dessert.

He pondered, ‘So, does she want to eat it in front of me?’

Alexander raised an eyebrow, looking at Elizabeth indifferently. Elizabeth walked towards him step by step, standing in front of him. Alexander met her eyes. Her gaze was so calm that it was impossible to tell what she was thinking.

Magnolia felt something was off, but didn’t know how to make an…

“Did you send this?” Elizabeth spoke, her voice low, making the atmosphere even heavier.

Hearing her words, Alexander squinted. “You don’t like it?” he asked.

Elizabeth smiled. “Why should I like something sent by a stranger?”

“So?” Alexander placed one hand on the back of the chair, looking at her arrogantly.

Elizabeth smiled. “Keep your trash,” she said, and then directly smashed the dessert into his face.

At that moment, the room fell silent. Only the sound of the plate hitting the floor and shattering could be heard.

Magnolia stood up in shock, staring at Elizabeth, full of astonishment. She thought, Is she crazy? She actually humiliated Alexander in front of everyone.

The waitstaff exchanged glances and quickly turned to leave. Alexander’s hand on the back of the chair slowly clenched into a fist, his eyes covered in cream, unable to open. His mouth twitched, and then he let out a muffled laugh. He seemed to be stunned for a few seconds, then raised his hand, slowly wiping the cream from his eyes. When he opened his eyes again, his thick eyelashes were covered in cream, trembling slightly.
