Episode 138
Following his gaze, she spotted the source of his attention. In the crowd, a strikingly elegant figure stood out. Elizabeth wore a simple white T-shirt and shorts, but her exceptional figure transformed the outfit into something extraordinary. Her hair was loosely tied back, exposing the graceful curve of her neck, and her serene face held a distant beauty, like the moon—lovely but untouchable.
With a knowing smirk, his cousin leaned closer. “So this is your type, huh? Gotta say you’ve got good taste!”
Albin yanked her closer and hissed, “Stop spouting nonsense. She’s married.”
The girl’s eyes widened, and she clapped her hands over her mouth in exaggerated shock. “Albin! Crushing on a married woman? That’s a one-way ticket to Trouble Town!”
But Albin was no longer listening. He watched intently as Elizabeth swiped a card at the entrance—she lived here!
In a swift motion, he transferred five thousand dollars to his cousin. “Go spend time with your friends,” he said distractedly, “but stay away from bars. I have urgent matters.”
His cousin blinked at the notification, her grin widening, “Wow, big spender! Alright, I’ll let you off the hook today. Go chase your forbidden love.”
Ignoring her commentary, Albin quickly dialed Elijah’s number. “I found where your wife is hiding!” he announced.
Elijah’s response was maddeningly indifferent. “Boring…”
Albin quickly shared the information, anxious that Elijah might hang up. “You won’t want to miss this—it’s right next to the bustling city center CBD, at Ripples Complex.” Ripples Complex—a name completely different from what Elizabeth had mentioned before.
Elijah’s finger hovered momentarily over the hang-up button before he changed his mind. “I’m on my way,” he said.
Half an hour later, an understated Audi rolled up beside Albin’s ostentatious Ferrari.
Albin’s eyes flicked over, his expression turning curious as Oliver stepped out of the driver’s seat to open the back door. Jogging over, Albin rapped on the car roof with a smirk.
