Semua Bab Regretful Tears Won't Bring Her Back: Bab 281 - Bab 290

Albert didn't have an old-fashioned mindset. He hadn't asked anyone from the Walker family to pursue Liesel back then because the news of her and Jacob's divorce hadn't gotten out yet. Who knew that Elijah would get to Liesel first? At that point, there was nothing else Jimmy could say. Although it was rather frustrating, Jimmy could only keep these thoughts to himself."That was a call from my friend. Do you want to meet my friends sometime?" Elijah did not hesitate to explain his connection with the Walker family. Of course, Liesel had no objection. She smiled at him with a nod. "Just let me know the time and place."Elijah cleared his throat lightly after hearing her agree. "But you might have to meet Tobey," he intentionally said. Liesel's eyes twitched. Tobey? He was the same man who initially invested in Shifter Corporation.To her, Tobey was a hypocritical and dangerous man. Although he truly did make an investment, he was also rather malicious.Although Tobey invest

After fastening the seatbelt, Elijah chuckled a few times from the side as if he were laughing at Liesel. She raised an eyebrow. "Are you laughing at me?""No." Although Elijah denied it, his gaze said otherwise. Although he already fastened the seatbelt for her, he did not move away. The right hand on the safety belt suddenly moved to her waist.The waist was a sensitive spot for Liesel, which Elijah rarely touched. This time, she did not move away and was merely startled by the warmth of his palm.Liesel's hair was pushed to the back, and her face was revealed. Anyone who got close to her would know how delicate and youthful her features were. Even her skin was flawless. Her cheeks were slightly pink yet cool from the wind.She was quietly trapped in Elijah's embrace without any resistance, seeming rather obedient. For a moment, he felt as if time had stopped in that peaceful moment.Elijah slowly bent his head and pressed his mouth gently against her soft lips. Liesel did n

The attendant couldn't help but look at Liesel. She was quite different while next to Jacob. She usually put on rather elaborate makeup when she was with him, making her seem rather unapproachable. However, the current Liesel was somewhat gentle and calm and did not seem aloof at all. There was no way she could have faked her elegance. One could only say that she had such natural beauty. The attendant went into a daze just by looking at Liesel. He then accidentally noticed Elijah's disdainful expression. His dark eyes were as cold as ice. The attendant came to his senses instantly and dared not to look at Liesel any longer. He looked downward and said respectfully, "Mr. Hardin. Ms. Sharp. This way, please."He led them to the private room Elijah usually booked. The attendant knocked twice on the door as a signal before pushing the door open. Once Elijah led Liesel inside, the attendant shut the door.Elijah and Liesel stood in front of the door and did not walk inside further.

Tobey nonchalantly snatched the cigarette from Jimmy. "No one's allowed to smoke in this room today." He even intentionally threw the cigarette far away. Jimmy laughed in exasperation. "Can't you be more compassionate? Am I not permitted to smoke just because I'm single?"Tobey poured red wine. He hummed in response before saying indifferently, "You can't."Jimmy became more frustrated and even wanted to take out his lighter to light a cigarette, which earned a glare from Elijah. "Liesel doesn't like the smell of cigarettes. Control yourself."Jimmy really did stop lighting his cigarette. It was rare to see such an uncertain expression on his face. He was slightly caught off guard by Elijah's words.As soon as Elijah entered the room earlier, he had mentioned that Liesel didn't like the smell of cigarettes. Jimmy clearly didn't think much of what Elijah said. "This… Fine!" Jimmy slowly put the lighter away. He wasn't an ignorant person. If Liesel didn't like the cigarette smell

Liesel wanted to use the washroom. However, since everyone else had done plenty of drinking, Jimmy was occupying the bathroom in the private room at that moment. Liesel informed Elijah that she wanted to use the bathroom outside. Although he drank a lot, there was no sign of him being drunk. His gaze still remained alert. "I'll go with you." Elijah set down his utensils and was about to get up. "No need." Liesel hurriedly held him back. "I don't need you to accompany me to the washroom. Do you still think I'm a child?"With that, she hurriedly left the room as if she was afraid Elijah would follow her. As soon as she left, the phone she left behind on the table rang. Elijah cast a glance at the phone number on the screen. It was so familiar that he could even recite each digit. He pursed his lips. His icy gaze was filled with mockery and hatred toward the phone number. He let the phone ring a few more times before swiping the screen to answer the call. He held the phone by h
