After Death, Love Unveiled

Chapter 138

Aubrey looked at Adair in confusion.

Adair responded, "I'm just asking."

She was curious to see what Lysander's fiancée looked like. Although they had not met yet, she already felt a hint of jealousy toward that woman.

Although they had not met yet, he was already a little jealous of that woman.

Just as Adair finished speaking, Elara came up from downstairs.

Adair was stunned to see Elara appear.

Elara was also surprised and had not expected Adair to be there, What are you doing here?"

Adair replied, "I was going to ask you the same thing!"

'Did Evelyn bring her here?' Aubrey wondered, glancing between the two women in confusion.

"Do you know each other?" He enquired.

Elara responded with a slightly exasperated tone, "She's my colleague. A particularly annoying person."

As she spoke, Elara thought about how, initially, she had no issues with Adair.

She reasoned to herself that it's normal sometimes not to get along with everyone-not everyone is going to like each other,

after all.

But in Elara's view, the real issue was with Adair's behavior. Ever since Elara had started working with Evelyn, whenever Jase spoke to her and Adair noticed, she would go out of her way to give Jase trouble, always making indirect, pointed remarks. Adair, noticing Elara's tone, replied sharply, "I find you annoying too!"

Elara replied dismissively, "I can't be bothered with you," and then walked directly over to sit beside Lysander.

As she watched Elara sit down next to Lysander, Adair could not help but recall how, just moments ago, she herself had been harshly glared at by Lysander. Since then, she had not dared to get too close to him again.

To her surprise, Elara not only sat beside Lysander but even leaned on him naturally. Adair had half-expected to see Elara get pushed away, but Lysander did not react at all.

Curious, Adair asked, "Do you two know each other?"

Elara said, "I do. Why? If not, then why am I here?"

She looked at Lysander. "What game is this? I want to play, too."

"Go ahead!" Lysander replied, already feeling uninterested.

He handed his phone to Elara, and the next moment, he naturally pulled her into his arms.

Adair was speechless.
