Chapter 225 She is Living Happily Now
Owen was very worried about Elizabeth's expression.
However, Elizabeth said with cold and calm expression, "Owen, I'm sorry about Harper."
"No, Elizabeth, I'm not here because of Harper." Owen hurried to explain, reaching out to grab Elizabeth's arm.
Elizabeth suddenly stepped back.
Many people in the company were watching.
Not far away, two female employees walked by, whispering to each other, "Isn't that Mr. Tudor from the Tudor family, the top family in Sunwillow City, and a relative of the Windsor family, Owen?"
"Isn't he Harper's sister's fiancé?"
"Oh my god, is he really involved with Elizabeth? No wonder Harper always called Elizabeth the homewrecker. I thought Harper was being unreasonable and wronged Elizabeth, but it turns out..."
The two women's voices were low, but Elizabeth and Owen could hear them.
Elizabeth said, "Can you let me go?"
Owen still didn't move.
Elizabeth really wanted to pick up a stone, smashing it on Owen's foot, but this was the company, and she couldn't make a scene, or it would attract more colleagues to watch.
Elizabeth could only say softly but clearly, "Mr. Tudor! Harper has called me the homewrecker several times, accusing me of ruining the relationship between Elodie and you. Mr. Tudor, you know, I have never sought you out, never! I finally found a job, please don't cause me any more trouble, okay? Please leave!"
Even after Elizabeth said this, Owen still didn't move.
"I've been in Pariz recently because Declan was sick. Elodie was practically raised by him, so Elodie and I were in Pariz taking care of Declan. I heard from my parents yesterday afternoon that you went to the Windsor Manor," Owen said urgently.
Elizabeth sneered, "What does that have to do with you!"
"It has nothing to do with me, but it has everything to do with you!" Owen said.
Elizabeth looked up at Owen, asking, "What do you mean?"
Owen then spoke earnestly, "Elizabeth, the Windsor family is very complicated and chaotic. I originally had more than a dozen cousins, and more than one uncle. Now, as you can see, I only have one uncle left, only one cousin, Alexander."
Elizabeth smiled coldly, "Why are you telling me all this? Mr. Tudor, can you get to the point?"
"What I'm saying is, the Windsor family is not as peaceful as it seems. My grandfather, my uncle, and my aunt won't sit idly by. They are so wary of Alexander, let alone someone like you who is not accepted by Alexander, a woman who was notorious in Sunwillow City six years ago? My grandmother was confused when she gave you the Windsor family heirloom, but for you, it will be trouble. It's trouble, you know that, Elizabeth!"
He added, "My mother called me last night and said, 'Owen, Alexander married Elizabeth, and your grandmother gave her the family heirloom.' When I heard this, I rushed back from Pariz overnight, just wanting to tell you to be very careful. In a powerful family like the Windsor family, anything can happen, do you understand!"
Elizabeth was silent.
She had to admit, Owen's concern was valid.
At least he was genuinely worried about her.
When Amara gave her the heirloom yesterday, Elizabeth didn't want it either. She also considered that Amara was confused, and what would the others think?
Wouldn't they hate her to death?
And at this moment, Owen's words further confirmed Elizabeth's thoughts from yesterday.
"Elizabeth, can I talk to you? If you don't want to do it in the company, afraid of being seen, we can go to a café outside, okay?" Owen asked urgently.
Elizabeth nodded.
She and Owen walked out the door together. Elizabeth instinctively glanced in the direction where Alexander usually parked. Coincidentally, she didn't see Alexander's car, thinking Alexander hadn't arrived yet, so she went to the café across the street with Owen.
"Ten minutes, I only have ten minutes," Elizabeth said, not wanting to keep Alexander waiting, nor did she want Alexander to know she was with Owen.
If Alexander found out, she wouldn't mind, but she didn't want to cause trouble for Owen.
"Okay, just ten minutes," Owen said.
Elizabeth and Owen ordered two glasses of water and sat down, then spoke in unison.
"Elizabeth, leave Alexander."
"Do you have any news about Samuel?"
Owen was silent, so was Elizabeth.
After a pause, Owen asked somewhat dejectedly, "Do you really want to know about Samuel that much? Is he that important to you?"
Elizabeth nodded without hesitation, saying, "Of course, in my heart, Samuel's place is the same as Alice's and my deceased mother's. He is my family, Owen. You once said you would help me find out about Samuel. Did you find anything?"
Owen shook his head apologetically, saying, "I'm sorry, Elizabeth. I was just about to start looking into it when Declan got sick. You know my relationship with Elodie, and Declan is also my mother's elder. For these reasons, I've been in Pariz with Elodie, so I haven't had time to help you. By the way, Clara is also in Pariz."
Elizabeth had thought of that.
Because recently, Clara hadn't come to trouble her.
Owen spoke, "Elizabeth, leave Alexander. As long as you're willing to leave him, I'll find a way to give you a large sum of money, a very large sum. You can take your daughter abroad, and it will be hard for him to find you. Trust me, Elizabeth, I won't play games with you anymore. I will never play games with you again in this life, and I don't want anything in return, nothing at all."
"Thank you for your kindness," Elizabeth said.
"Will you leave?" Owen asked.
Elizabeth answered decisively, "No."
Owen was silent, asking after a few seconds, "Why won't you leave him? Does he keep a close watch on you? But you can come out to work, and your daughter can go to kindergarten. That means you have a chance to escape. Elizabeth, are you afraid to run away? Do you think your life will have no support without Samuel?"
He continued, "Elizabeth, I can be your support. As long as you are willing, I am willing to die for you and your daughter in this life. As long as you are willing, I will take you far away, and I will ensure you and your daughter live without worries for the rest of your lives. We can go abroad, okay, Elizabeth? I love you. I want you to live freely, and I want you to be happy. As long as you are happy, I am willing to die for you."
Elizabeth was silent.
"She is living very happily now." A sharp voice descended like a bolt from the blue.
