My Coldhearted Ex demands a Remarriage by Eva Blackwood

Chapter 246

Chapter 246 Elizabeth kept her composure, her voice steady.

“Mr.

Crawford, you’re overthinking things.

I’m married, and my actions represent more than just myself.”

Though she suspected the thugs might have been Alexander’s doing, she had no proof.

Speculation without evidence would only complicate matters, and the situation already felt like a web.

The waiter began delivering their dishes, momentarily interrupting their conversation.

Alexander, ever the image of refinement, placed several desserts before Elizabeth.

“Let’s not discuss unpleasant matters while dining,” he said with a gentle smile.

Elizabeth turned her focus to the desserts.

One souffle, shaped like a delicate camellia, caught her eye.

Its cream petals transitioned seamlessly from pale pink to white, accented with droplets of maple sugar.

As she took a bite, the elderflower strawberry filling provided a subtle tartness, perfectly complementing the souffle’s rich, creamy texture.

She savored the treat, gazing out the window at the city’s sparkling nightscape.

The lights of Orkset, on its path to becoming a first-tier metropolis, shimmered like stars.

Much of the city’s rise was owed to the Norris family, with Elijah playing a pivotal role.

As she admired the view, a reflection in the glass made her heart skip.

Turning abruptly, she spotted Elijah stepping out of a private room.

A woman in a white dress clung to his sleeve—a mask covering her face, a wide-brimmed hat concealing her hair.

Yet there was no mistaking her identity.

It was Sandra.

Sandra’s childlike mannerisms were painfully familiar as she leaned into Elijah, her movements playful and intimate.
