Chapter 944
"But we didn't make it, Thalia." Elizabeth's eyes reddened as she looked at Thalia.
"Elizabeth, you and Alexander just had a misunderstanding. You should be together," Thalia said, feeling sorry for Elizabeth.
Marriage was very important for a woman. But Elizabeth's marriage ended so abruptly. What a pity.
She didn't even know after it ended whether Alexander loved her or just liked her.
The funny thing was, Alexander clearly liked her, but because Esme saved him, he decided to marry Esme. That's the saddest part.
Elizabeth curled up in the corner, feeling a deep, indescribable pain in her heart.
In the past, when she talked about her and Alexander, she felt regret and sadness.
But now, when she talked about Alexander, she felt full of regret. Because everyone said she and Alexander were a perfect match, and we all thought they should have made it to the end. Even now, everyone said Alexander once liked her.
Elizabeth was confused.
"Elizabeth, don't be sad," Thalia patted Elizabeth's shoulder.
When Elizabeth looked at Thalia, her tear-filled eyes blurred her vision. Elizabeth sniffled.
Stripped of her high-society demeanor, Elizabeth was just an ordinary person at this moment.
But Thalia genuinely admired Elizabeth.
Although she wasn't Elizabeth's close friend, whether it was Elizabeth's attitude towards friends, marriage, or her medical skills just now, Thalia admired her deeply.
Why did someone as good as Elizabeth have to be treated like this by life? Thalia couldn't understand.
"I'm going to the restroom," Elizabeth stood up, wanting to touch up her makeup.
Thalia clearly saw Elizabeth's body trembling as she stood up.
Elizabeth walked to the restroom, rummaging through her pockets to take some medicine to counteract the effects of alcohol.
Her phone rang in her pocket, but she didn't hear it.
Elizabeth reached the restroom and looked at her haggard reflection in the mirror, feeling a pang of heartache.
She looked terrible.
She looked like she had just gone through a breakup.
Strange, she hadn't even been in love.
Elizabeth wanted to wash her face to wake herself up but realized she still had makeup on, which was inconvenient.
She could only lean against the wall alone, trying to feel better.
The music outside was still deafening, and Elizabeth found it annoying.
Her phone rang again in her bag, and this time Elizabeth heard it.
She took out her phone, her first thought being whether Declan was looking for her again.
She had told Declan that she'd come back home after this reunion.
When she opened her phone, she found several unread messages and missed calls, all from Alexander.
He had sent her many messages.
Alexander: [Changed venues?]
Alexander: [Is the party going well? Are you being targeted?]
Alexander: [Elizabeth, if you need me to come, send me a message. Don't handle it alone.]
Alexander: [You don't even reply to messages, just making me worry here.]
Alexander: [Fine. Not replying, huh? What about our three-month contract?]
The messages were sent at short intervals, just ten minutes apart.
Further down, there was a longer gap, about an hour.
Alexander: [Elizabeth, I finally understand how you feel.]
Elizabeth stared at this message for a long time.
What feeling?
The feeling of waiting for someone who didn't come home?
Alexander had just called her.
Elizabeth opened Facebook and replied with an emoji.
Elizabeth: [Tired. Drank too much.]
Alexander immediately replied: [Where are you? I'll come pick you up and take you home.]
Elizabeth stared at this message, and tears started to fall.
Maybe it was the alcohol, but she felt so wronged.
