Unrepairable Love
Chapter 832
I’ve been feeling unwell lately, so I’m taking a break,” Alexander gave himself an excuse. People like Declan, who prioritized their careers, rated work and one’s attitude toward the company highly. If Alexander said he wasn’t working because he was pursuing Elizabeth, Declan would definitely look down on him. But this made it tough for Kieran, who knew the truth.
Alexander glanced at Kieran, signaling him to hold back. Kieran took a sip of coffee and a bite of dessert. He had a message on his phone. Kieran lowered his eyes and smiled.
Lila: We’ve started filming, but I have to fly back tomorrow night for an event. It’s the end of the year, and I have a lot of annual meetings to attend, so I’m very busy.
Lila had now learned to share her daily life with him, and he felt honored. “Being unwell means you should rest well; after all, you’re still young,” Declan said. Alexander nodded. “Thank you. You should take care of yourself too.”
“Elizabeth didn’t come home at all last night. Young people these days just don’t take care of themselves,” Declan sighed. Alexander paused. Bringing this up suddenly, Declan must have seen last night’s news. “Elizabeth was with me last night,” Alexander confessed directly. Declan looked at Alexander and smiled. It was because Elizabeth was with Alexander that he was even more worried. Alexander saw the deep meaning in Declan’s eyes and didn’t respond further.
Kieran noticed the awkward atmosphere. He took a sip of coffee and asked, “Mr. Percy, now that we’ve secured this project, will the Percy Group reach new heights next year?”
Declan smiled, “I don’t ask for new heights, just that everything goes smoothly.” The Russell Group’s future next year is uncertain. If the Russell Family can’t hold their position among the top four families, new candidates might be selected,” Kieran said. Declan shook his head. If the Russell Family falls out of the top four, the Percy Family won’t compete. How many more wars can I work? The future of my position is for Elizabeth. The competition among the top four families is intense, and I’m afraid Elizabeth can’t handle it.”

Alexander and Kieran exchanged a glance. The heirs of the top four families were all men; except for Elizabeth. If no one protected her, Elizabeth would be bullied. In the workplace, many people already looked down on women. “Aren’t we here, father?” Kieran laughed heartily. Declan looked at him and laughed along. Declan was happy to hear Kieran say that. But Declan felt that Elizabeth shouldn’t need a man’s support.
Wyatt received a call, said he had something to attend to, and left early. Soon, only three people were left in the restaurant. Seeing no outsiders, Declan smiled and said, “Mr. Tudor.” “Yes,” Alexander was extremely polite in front of Declan. Declan wasn’t quite used to it. “Do you want to remarry Elizabeth?” Declan asked. Alexander nodded. Declan sighed, “Are you confident you can make Elizabeth happy?” Alexander was about to speak. Declan continued, “I’m not stopping you. But you hurt Elizabeth so deeply, how can I trust you to take care of her again?” Alexander’s face darkened.
