Chapter 824

Elizabeth merely smiled at his words and let them pass. She went to freshen up. Alexander didn’t bother himself further and went downstairs. Elizabeth tied her hair up, wearing a white dress, looking very elegant.

When he came downstairs, Elizabeth was standing in the kitchen, looking troubled. Elizabeth asked, “Sandwiches and milk, is that okay?”

“Sure.” He was more than happy to have someone make breakfast.

“We were photographed coming home together yesterday. I tried to have it taken down, but it didn’t work. Mr. Tudor, could you have someone take it down?” Elizabeth suddenly asked Alexander.

Alexander looked up. “What?”

“It’s just a piece of news,” he replied.

Elizabeth smiled, “I still care about it. After all, it was with my ex-husband, not a new boyfriend.”

If she had gone to the bar with a new boyfriend and come home with him, that would be understandable. But with her ex-husband? Wasn’t that just telling the whole world that she got back together with that jerk, Alexander?

“If you put it that way, then this news should stay up even longer,” Alexander’s tone was indescribably cold.

She still wanted to be seen with other men? If she went home with another man, it would be Alexander who would be upset. He would never allow such a thing to happen.

Elizabeth was about to fry some eggs. Hearing Alexander’s words, she smiled and asked, “Could it be you who posted the news? I heard a high price was offered.”

“Why would you think of me like that? Am I that despicable?” Alexander immediately retorted.

Elizabeth didn’t hesitate, “Don’t you know yourself?”

In fact, he was. Alexander was speechless. Her tongue had indeed become sharper. Elizabeth toasted two slices of bread and made two simple sandwiches. The milk was also heated.

At the dining table, the two of them rarely ate breakfast together in silence. Elizabeth was browsing news comments about Esme on her phone. Everyone seemed to have a poor impression of Esme, saying all sorts of things. Some reporters went to the Russell Family to interview them, but no one from the Russell Family showed up. Henry was running between the hospital and the company, so busy that reporters couldn’t get him. No one knew how Ellen was doing.

Elizabeth was about to drink her milk when this thought suddenly popped into her mind, and she was stunned. She actually thought of Ellen out of nowhere—strange. Her phone suddenly rang. Elizabeth drank her milk; it was a message from Felix.

Felix: [Do you have time to come to Base M? The Snow Tear is ready.]

Elizabeth: [Great!]

Finally, it was ready before the end of the year. Elizabeth put down her phone and started eating faster.

“Christmas is coming up, do you have any plans?” Alexander suddenly broke the silence in the living room.

“Just going to spend it casually. I’ll have a meal with some friends,” Elizabeth said.

Alexander pursed his lips, “Have you made plans?”

Elizabeth looked up, about to say she hadn’t. But hearing Alexander ask like that, he must be planning to ask her out. Elizabeth lied, “Yes.”

“You promised me last night to give me three months. Elizabeth, there’s no need to lie to me.” He saw through it clearly.

Elizabeth was speechless. He was really hard to deceive.

“First, take my Facebook and phone number off your blacklist.” This was his first condition.

Elizabeth smiled, “You only said three months, you didn’t mention this.”

“Three months is an opportunity. Since you agreed to give me a chance, isn’t it reasonable to unblock my phone and Facebook? If you really don’t want to, then forget about the three months. Anyway, no matter what, I’ll always be around you.”
