Chapter 1014

"Alright, Alexander's driver is here. I'm sorry, Owen. I need to go." Elise quickly figured out an excuse to leave when she reckoned it was time to go.

"No worries. Being able to see you is enough to make my day." Owen pretended to see her off with a heavy heart but was actually happy that she was leaving on the inside. After all, he was tempted to seize his chance and execute his plan after learning about Smith Co.'s involvement in smuggling firearms.

"I'm happy that we met each other today. Anyway, I promise we'll see each other again. Bye." Elise left as soon as she finished her sentence. However, she was quickly disgusted by the promise she made as she justified her actions. Upon exiting the café, Elise made a few turns around the area before finally reaching Alexander's driver.

While Raymond was the driver, Alexander was sitting right beside him. "Hit the gas pedal, Raymond," Elise said as she removed the necklace. Deep down, she couldn't wait to leave the place because she couldn't stand Owen's flirtatious attitude. In the meantime, Alexander looked at her in an ambiguous manner as if he was going to make fun of her. "Why are you looking at me like that?" Elise felt uncomfortable with how Alexander was looking at her.

"Oh, nothing. I just realized how good of an actress my wife could be." Alexander responded in a deadpan manner.

"Seriously? Your wife just had a date with another man, yet you're here making fun of her. Shouldn't you have been nervous instead?" Elise tried to guilt-trip Alexander.

"Well, my boss is indeed the first man who sends his wife on a date with another man in this world." Raymond joined the conversation and chuckled.

"You could always leave and return to Africa if you think your job is too easy!" Alexander rolled his eyes upward in an annoyed manner.
