Chapter 710
Elizabeth turned around and saw Alexander and Magnolia standing behind her. Magnolia was really dressed beautifully today. For the first time, Elizabeth thought they looked like a perfect match. Alexander was wearing a black suit; it was obviously custom-made, fitting his body perfectly and making him look both noble and elegant.
Elizabeth smiled and greeted them, โMagnolia, Alexanderโฆโ
Magnolia smiled. โI thought you two knew each other, so I brought Mr. Tudor over to say hello.โ
Elizabeth couldnโt smile anymore. She and Alexander were more than just acquaintances; wasnโt Magnolia the one who knew best what was going on between them? Did she deliberately bring Alexander over to greet her? But why? Elizabeth couldnโt be bothered to figure it out.
Alexanderโs gaze at Elizabeth was intense, making Magnolia very jealous. It was always like this; wherever Elizabeth was, Alexanderโs eyes would always be on her, just like in college. Back in college, everyone said Alexander didnโt love Elizabeth. Magnolia didnโt believe it because the feelings in his eyes couldnโt be hidden. When Alexander married Elizabeth, Magnolia was even more convinced that she was right: Alexander did love Elizabeth. Until someone said that Alexander truly loved Esme, she was shocked. Magnolia couldnโt believe her judgment was wrong, because Alexanderโs gaze at Elizabeth was clearly full of love. Maybe Alexanderโs gaze was too intense, making Elizabeth feel a bit uncomfortable.
Since he wasnโt speaking, Elizabeth had to start the conversation. She smiled gently and said, โYou donโt look like youโve been well lately; you should take care of yourself.โ
โThank you for your concern,โ he replied politely.
Elizabeth smiled and then looked at Magnolia. โMagnolia, you two go ahead. Iโll just wander around.โ
Magnolia immediately nodded. โAlright.โ
She then looked at Alexander and said helplessly, โElizabeth is here on behalf of Lila. I didnโt invite her before. I thought she was your wife, and you two would come together.โ
Magnolia was smarter than anyone, but this excuse made her look like a fool. And Alexander wouldnโt buy it. Magnoliaโs words were just to deliberately tell him that Elizabeth didnโt have an invitation. Alexander also understood the implication in her words. But he didnโt respond and instead looked at Elizabeth again, clearly observing her emotions.
Elizabeth thought that Alexanderโs love was really quite obvious. In the past, when did he ever pay attention to her emotions?
At times like this, she was always the one being scorned, because she didnโt have an invitation but still came. How shameful she felt.
โBy the way, Elizabeth, when youโre wandering around, be careful; you might run into Kennedy,โ Magnolia smiled.
Hearing this, both Alexander and Elizabeth looked at her. Alexander asked first, โKennedy is here too?โ
Magnolia nodded. โI invited Kennedy.โ
โDid Kennedy come?โ Elizabeth immediately asked. She thought to herself, an invitation is one thing, but whether I use it is another. What kind of wordplay is she doing?
โKennedy recently designed a new set of jewelry that I really like,โ Alexander suddenly looked at Elizabeth.
Elizabeth was indifferent, wondering why Alexander was looking at her. After all, it was Kennedy who designed the jewelry, not her.
Magnolia looked at Alexander. โMr. Tudor, youโre interested in Kennedy too, arenโt you?โ
โYes,โ Alexander said directly.
โThen why did you buy my set of green jade? You could have saved the money to buy Kennedyโs new collection.โ Magnolia was a bit surprised.
Elizabeth caught the key point. So it was Alexander who bought Magnoliaโs set of jade. No wonder Magnolia sold it so readily, not even waiting for the exhibition to end.
