Falling For My Mysterious Wife by Cassidy Alfaro novel Chapter 87

Chapter 87

Jalen did not wait for Elaina to finish the surgery at the hospital, but he decided to come again tomorrow. Anyway, Nitzan’s birthday was the day after tomorrow. Jalen thought that it was not late to invite Elaina tomorrow.

When Jalen just got into the car and was about to go to the office, Alisha called him. “Jalen, are you free in the afternoon? Go shopping with me, okay? I haven’t been back for two years. New York has changed a lot.”

“Sorry, I have a lot of work to do in the afternoon,” Jalen refused. If it weren’t for the incident with

Elaina, he would have agreed.

After that incident, Jalen had a sense of disgust for the Lory family. Moreover, he knew that Elaina did not like Alisha. Inexplicably, he did not want to get too close to Alisha.

Alisha, who was on the other side of the line, did not expect to be declined. She was angry, but she did not lose her temper. Instead, she said, “Mr. Halton’s birthday is on the day after tomorrow. I’d like to buy him a gift, but I don’t know what he likes. So I…”

Over the phone, Jalen seemed to have seen the grievance on Alisha’s face.

For a moment, Jalen hesitated.

“Jalen, I’ve thought that we are still close friends, no matter how long we have not seen each other.

But now, it seems that this is just what I think,” Alisha said in an upset tone.

Jalen frowned. After quite a while, he said, “Where are you? I’ll go to pick you up.”

In the end, Jalen agreed. To him, Alisha could be counted as a friend.

During the years when Jalen lost his parents, apart from his grandfather taking care of him, Alisha, as a friend of his, had helped Jalen a lot. Therefore, Jalen could not be so ruthless to Alisha.

“I’m at home. Then I’ll wait for you, okay?” Alisha smiled.

“Okay.”

After hanging up the phone, Jalen drove to the Lory’s house.
