Chapter 737

Alexander couldn’t have come here on purpose, could he? After all, Alexander was right there when Elizabeth was on the phone with Ivan today. A hint of surprise flashed in both Alexander and Kieran’s eyes, especially Kieran, who was not only surprised but also a bit speechless. How did he end up in this situation again? Being stuck between Alexander and Ivan, this situation was really hard to handle.

Elizabeth silently bit down on the beef in her mouth, her gaze lightly resting on Alexander. Alexander looked at Elizabeth. After a few seconds of silence, he walked straight towards her. Ivan stood up. Since Alexander and Kieran came together, Ivan had no reason to remain seated.

“Alexander, Kieran,” Ivan greeted politely. Elizabeth felt a bit guilty. Ivan was quite brave. He really dared to give up his circle of friends for Elizabeth, who might not have a future with him. From the moment he decided to pursue Elizabeth, he should have known Alexander and Kieran would only grow more distant from him.

“What a coincidence, mind if we join you for dinner?” Alexander directly pulled out the chair next to Elizabeth. Neither Elizabeth nor Ivan said anything, so Alexander sat down directly and then looked at Kieran. He said lightly, “Sit down, Kieran.” Kieran was speechless. Kieran had no choice but to sit down; if he didn’t, it would seem disrespectful to Alexander. But if he did sit down, it would also be quite disrespectful to Ivan.

Kieran sighed. He really wanted to step out and take a phone call, even if it was someone saying there was a problem at the company. Unfortunately, there was no issue at the company, and he couldn’t leave. Ivan noticed Kieran’s dilemma and said directly, “Kieran, sit down. Let’s all eat together and make it lively.” Kieran had no choice but to sit down in the end. Alexander sat next to Elizabeth, and Kieran sat next to Ivan.

The four of them took their seats, and the waiter came to take their order. Kieran joked to lighten the mood, “Is Ivan treating us?” Ivan nodded. “Sure. It’s on me.” Elizabeth kept her head down, eating, not looking at them.

Seeing Elizabeth constantly cutting her steak with her head down, Alexander poured her a glass of wine and asked, “Elizabeth, want some wine?” Elizabeth shook her head, declining. Alexander said nothing, took the glass back, and drank it himself. After all, Kieran was driving, so Alexander could drink.

Elizabeth glanced at Alexander, her brows slightly furrowed. She wanted to remind Alexander not to drink, but then she thought it was none of her business. So she couldn’t be bothered about Alexander. Even if he got a stomachache, that was his problem.

“What were you guys talking about?” Kieran asked Elizabeth. Elizabeth said, “Kennedy. Ivan said he wants to sign Kennedy.” Kieran said, “Why is everyone suddenly wanting to sign Kennedy? I’m kind of looking forward to seeing who Kennedy will choose.”
