Chapter 84

Elizabeth glanced at Alexander, a bit surprised. At Lily's birthday party, Esme gave Lily fake rare saffron in front of all those infantry hip shots. Was that a huge deal?

Thabeth looked at me and realized that the more vulnerable one appears, the more sympathy they receive.

"I'm mutt here," Elizabeth said, not wanting to stick around.

“Elizabeth,” Alexander called after her.

Wanting to follow, but Erme changed her mind. “Alexander, everyone at the party last night was questioning me. I was so…"

Ekzabeth didn't lock the door and left.

Alexander honked, stopped his Lome, and had to chase after Elizabeth.

“What happened at the party?” Mesander asked as he helped Esme into the villa.

Exme, holding back tears, suddenly asked, “Alexander, did you change the villa password?”

She had tried many times at the door, but the password was wrong. If she tried again, the system would issue a warning, so she didn’t dare to try anymore.

“I changed it,” Alexander said calmly.

Esmir emitted a single word, “Why?”

He replied indifferently, “I’ve used the old password for years. Sudden changes always cause me to make mistakes.”

Esme bit her lip. She didn’t know what the old password was. Without the password, she couldn’t freely enter the villa, which meant she was still being kept out.

When would she finally become part of Alexander’s family? The Perry family.

When Elizabeth got home, Grant and Celine were waiting for her on the couch.

Elizabeth, holding her high heels, tried to sneak upstairs but got caught.

“Grandpa, Grandma, nothing to do today?” Elizabeth called out softly.

“Virne waiting for you?” Celine’s tone was serious.

Elizabeth cleared her throat and stood obediently in front of them.

They asked, “Why didn’t you come home last night? Where did you go? Did you see Alexander? Are you rekindling your old flame?”

Elizabeth was helpless in the face of her grandparents’ barrage of questions.

Elizabeth pouted, dropped her high heels, and sat next to Grant, feeling wronged. “Grandpa, I got hurt last night and went to the hospital. Alexander doesn’t like me. We have no feelings for each other, so how could we rekindle anything?”

Grand immediately asked, “Where did you get hurt?”

“Elizabeth, the Perrys must have backbone! Don’t cry over spilled milk. If you dare to rekindle things with Alexander, I’ll be…”

Celine snorted, pretending to be the first to jump down on Elizabeth.

Elizabeth watched Celine finish. Alexander had indeed been courting her lately. She felt reluctant. But she understood that Alexander’s kindness was all an act.

Chapter 24

She used to naively think Alexander was slowly accepting her, comforting and convincing herself, but not anymore.

Celine stood up, her expression serious. She glared at Elizabeth and said, “I’ve arranged everything with the hospital. You go report there immediately to study medicine!”

“Grandma, I…” Elizabeth wanted to play for a few more days.

Celine smiled, looking at Elizabeth with a meaningful expression. “Either show me the divorce certificate right now, or go report to the hospital. Your choice!”
