Chapter 462
"Why are you so against me? Is it just 'cause I'm friends with Alexander?" Ivan blocked Elizabeth's way.
Elizabeth nodded. "You know why. Plus, I'm not into younger guys."
Dating someone as mature as Alexander was already draining, let alone someone younger and less mature.
"Is it my fault I'm younger? I was just born a few months after you." Ivan spread his hands, still blocking her path and walking backward.
Elizabeth sighed. "Ivan, watch out. There's someone behind you." This place was packed, and walking like this wasn't safe.
"Ouch." Ivan groaned, holding his stomach.
The spot where Ivan got hurt stung, but his heart hurt even more!
Elizabeth looked at him with disdain.
Ivan watched her walk away. Just as he was about to follow, someone blocked his path.
Ivan frowned, annoyed, then turned and plopped down on the sofa. "What do you want?"
Alexander stood in front of him, looking down. "What are you trying to do?"
Ivan spread his hands. "Nothing, just having some fun."
"Having fun with Elizabeth?" Alexander leaned in, placing his hands on either side of Ivan, his eyes blazing with anger.
Ivan's eyes reflected Alexander's figure.
Ivan lowered his lashes slightly, looking even more composed.
Ivan thought, 'I'm not playing with Elizabeth; I'm genuinely interested in her. Besides, she saved me. Isn't it normal to be good to her?'
Ivan smiled and asked, "Alexander, why are you so against me getting close to Elizabeth?"
Alexander frowned, his tone harsh, "It's not about resistance; you two just aren't a good match. Leave her alone."
"We're not a good match? And you are?" Ivan stared directly into his eyes.
Their eyes locked, and Alexander's gaze was ice-cold.
Ivan was the first to look away.
In their group, everyone had a certain level of respect for Alexander because, despite his young age, he was the most accomplished among them.
"So, you really want to go after Elizabeth?" Alexander squinted, his tone dangerous and questioning.
Ivan said nothing.
Alexander straightened up, his eyes cold. "You'd better think it through."
After all, Elizabeth was his ex-wife.
He would never allow his ex-wife to end up with one of his friends.
Alexander gave Ivan a long look, then left in frustration.
Alexander tugged at his suit collar and bumped into a young girl as he entered the elevator.
The girl looked delicate, like a gust of wind could blow her over.
She seemed about to fall, and Alexander grabbed her arm, giving her a cold look.
The girl met Alexander's eyes and shivered.
She opened her mouth, hurriedly trying to apologize.
But Alexander had already entered the elevator and quickly pressed the button.
The elevator doors closed.
She watched as the elevator stopped on the third floor.
The third floor was for VIP luxury rooms. The rooms on this cruise ship were ranked by level. She lived on the first floor, the worst rooms.
There were many others like her living in the worst rooms.
She had given everything to get on this cruise ship.
"Angela Holland, what are you doing?" Suddenly, someone called her from behind.
She turned around to see another young and pretty girl.
"Nothing." Angela smiled slightly, unconsciously touching her arm.
The place where Alexander had grabbed her still felt warm.
She raised her arm and gently sniffed it. Unfortunately, there was no scent left.
