“Buy whatever you want after dinner. This mall belongs to the Norris Group, and I’ve made sure the management knows nothing like the previous incident will happen again.”
Elizabeth immediately grasped his intention; he was referencing the previous incident with the pen. Her voice softened involuntarily as she said, “Let me know when everything is settled.”
“Yes, I’ll report back to you,” Elijah said, nodding.
Upon hearing the word “report,” Sandra’s face turned even paler. Elijah easily lifted Sandra and carried her out. As they left, she glanced back and saw Elizabeth calmly sipping coffee at the table. This time, she employed the same methods to take Elijah away, but in the end, she had lost completely.
After their departure, only Camille and Elizabeth were left in the room. Camille gave a thumbs up and said, “Not a single curse word today, yet it felt oddly satisfying. It’s like being the main character in a drama, gracefully revealing the mistress’s underhanded tactics.”
She replayed the scene in her head and said with a hint of regret, “But you’re still too kind-hearted. You shouldn’t have let Elijah take that manipulative woman to the hospital. She always claims her heart is acting up; I doubt it was anything serious.”
“I never intended to harm Sandra. Plus, if his heart isn’t with me, merely keeping him close won’t change that. He chose to send Sandra to Izrosa. For now, I’ll let her be,” Elizabeth said, fiddling with the black card in her hand, its gold lettering catching the light.
Camille’s gaze fell on the card. “Where a man’s money is, there his love is too. Don’t hesitate to use his money now. When you mentioned you’d leave with nothing, I almost lost my breath hearing that.”
With that, she rolled her eyes and pinched the bridge of her nose. Elizabeth tucked away the card and stood up. “Let’s go, find somewhere better to eat.”
Following a satisfying meal, Elizabeth gave in to Camille’s insistence and joined her for some shopping. They strolled past an elegantly decorated lingerie shop. Camille cast a playful look at her. “Do you want to check it out?”
