Chapter 671

Nolan was also a bit surprised, his hand still on the door. He froze for a second, then nodded.

He then hurriedly went upstairs, holding a gift box.

Elizabeth quickly looked away. Would Nolan tell Alexander she was here when he delivered the gift?

She felt a bit uneasy, worried that Alexander might come down to greet her.

But then she thought about him being with Magnolia. How could he leave her alone? So she felt much more at ease.

"Do you have plans this weekend? There's a ski resort nearby. Want to go together?" Ivan suddenly asked Elizabeth.

Elizabeth looked up. "Sure." She loved it, but Lila was usually too busy, and Felix didn't know how to ski, so she was too lazy to go alone.

If someone went with her, she would be thrilled.

"Then, shall we go on Saturday?" Ivan inquired.

Elizabeth shook her head. "I have plans on Saturday. How about Sunday?" She had to attend an event for OpulentCrest Jewelry on Saturday, for she wanted to see that set of jade jewelry.

"Alright, whatever you say." Ivan was quite accommodating.

Elizabeth just smiled at him and said, "Ivan, you're too accommodating."

"A guy trying to pursue a girl has to be a bit accommodating. If he isn't, there must be something wrong with him."

Ivan's words did make some sense.

Elizabeth smiled. "Got it."

Seeing her smile, Ivan seemed to understand what kind of man Elizabeth liked.

"Hello," A waiter suddenly came over to greet them.

Elizabeth looked up, puzzled.

"This is a dessert from a gentleman for you." The waiter placed a dessert down.

Elizabeth stared at it for a while and thanked the waiter.

Ivan wanted to ask who it was from, but seeing Elizabeth's silence, he knew it.

Although Alexander couldn't come down to greet her, he still wanted to show he was there.

Elizabeth pushed the dessert aside, not intending to eat it.

Alexander's gesture was meaningless.

Soon, the waiter came again. "Ma'am, that gentleman has sent you another dessert." She placed another one down.

Elizabeth frowned.

She didn't eat it was because she just didn't want to eat something Alexander ordered. Didn't he understand?

"Excuse me, I don't like it. If he orders again, don't bring it to me." Then Elizabeth pushed the dessert away again.

The waiter smiled and left without saying anything.

Elizabeth's face turned cold, and she lost her appetite.

"Let me take you home." Ivan understood her mood.

Elizabeth nodded, but before she could stand up, she saw the waiter coming over with another dessert.

The waiter blocked her way. This time it was a male waiter.

He said, "Elizabeth, would you like to try it? Our desserts are actually quite good."

Elizabeth's face turned completely cold. "If I don't eat it, will you not let me leave?"

"Elizabeth, we don't have that right. But..." The waiter hinted.

Elizabeth smiled. "Alexander won't let me leave?"

The waiter looked at her silently, which answered her question.

Elizabeth nodded. "Tell him to come down."

"Elizabeth, if you take a bite, you can leave," The waiter said.

Elizabeth smiled. "Just tell him to come down and watch me eat."

"We're just doing our job." The waiter answered.

Elizabeth looked upstairs. She seemed ready to rush up, but Ivan held her back.
