Chapter 175
Alisha failed to slap Elaina in the end. Before Elaina could reach out to stop her, Jalen acted first.
“Jalen…”
His sudden appearance made Alisha flustered. She was afraid that he would be angry, and she became very nervous.
Elaina also looked at Jalen. He had just walked over from ahead, so she assumed that he might go around the corner.
She thought he did that for fear of being discovered by Alisha.
He tried to approach Elaina and feared that Alisha would find out about it at the same time. He was a terrible man in Elaina’s eyes!
But what annoyed Elaina the most was that she failed to control her feelings.
She knew what kind of person Jalen was but was still tempted by him and almost…
Just thinking about it made her angry, and she wanted to slap his face to vent her anger.
Jalen still grabbed Alisha’s wrist. He exerted a lot of strength, and she couldn’t stand the pain.
“Jalen, I…” With red eyes, Alisha decided to find an excuse to explain to Jalen first.
However, before she could finish speaking, Jalen released her and said in an affectionate tone that sounded like he was blaming her, “Dr. Gainsford is Grandfather’s guest. It is a little impolite of you to treat her like this.”
Alisha was stunned and could not believe her ears.
But she quickly reacted and looked at Elaina. “I’m sorry, Ms. Gainsford. I was too emotional and shouldn’t have done that to you.”
Elaina didn’t say anything and looked at Jalen.
She finally knew this was how this man explained to her.
At that moment, she felt out of breath, as if there was a heavy burden on her.
