Chapter 21

About half an hour later, the car drove into the old town, meandering into an old residential area.

Elizabeth got out of the car and stared at Alexander for a few seconds before suddenly asking him, “Are you free?”

Alexander glanced at her and arched an eyebrow, “What for?”

Elizabeth looked at him calmly, “If you’re free, come upstairs with me.”

Alexander squinted his eyes, “Don’t you know what it means for a woman to invite a strange man upstairs?”

He looked at her overly calm and beautiful dark eyes and chuckled inwardly. She’s just a kid; what does she know?

Reality slapped him hard.

“If you have time, come upstairs and exercise with me,” she said.

Alexander was stunned.

Samuel thought to himself, “What? Did my mind just go into the gutter?

Samuel incredulously asked, “Wait, exercise? What kind of exercise? Are we talking about the kind that makes you break a sweat?”

“Oh, you’ll sweat a lot,” Elizabeth looked at him, “So?”

Alexander chuckled at himself. So, Elizabeth was trying to seduce him?

He had thought she was different, that she was simple-minded without complicated thoughts.

But it turns out she was quite cunning, even at a young age.

“Fine.”

He wanted to see just how daring Elizabeth was.

Samuel started to question life itself, muttering, “Alex, you really agreed! She’s so young, you, you, you …”

He wanted to say, “You’re worse than a beast.”

However, Elizabeth’s next words startled him, “Do you want to join? Three would be more …”

“No!”

Samuel was shaken, and under Alexander’s amused gaze, quickly shook his head, “No, no, I don’t like to exercise.”

Especially not a three-person exercise.

Oh, my God! I’ve lost my innocence.

Is it that he’s too innocent, or are young girls these days so aggressive?

Exercise as soon as they meet; that’s terrifying!

After Alexander got out of the car, Samuel didn’t even bother to look at them and bolted away.

He didn’t think Alexander would actually do exercise with Elizabeth, but the fact that Alexander was willing to play along with her antics was surprising enough.

“So, where to now?”

Alexander was strikingly handsome, dressed in a tailored black suit. His lean figure resembled a tall and elegant bamboo shoot, a real head-turner.

This caused passersby to sneak glances at him.

“Follow me.”

With a mischievous glint in his eyes, Alexander chuckled softly, “Alright, let’s exercise.”

He emphasized the word “exercise.”

Elizabeth seemed pleased with Alexander’s enthusiasm.

She led him up to the sixth floor using the stairs.

The building was old; its walls were yellowed and the staircase dark and cold.

Alexander frowned, clearly uncomfortable. When he saw Elizabeth taking out her keys, he looked puzzled.

“Your place?”

“My Grandpa’s home,” Elizabeth answered as she unlocked the door.

That explained it for Alexander. Everyone had been wrong about Elizabeth. She had been living in Metro City from the start, not coming from a rural area.

No wonder he always felt something was off about her. But that was none of his business.

Opening the door, a musty smell hit them.

Alexander coughed lightly before observing the interior.

It was a simple, yet tidy three-bedroom apartment.

But it felt empty, almost forlorn.

Alexander thought, was this where Elizabeth had grown up? A sudden curiosity rose in him.

Elizabeth closed the door and looked Alexander up and down for a moment.

“Your physical condition is not bad, how much do you charge?”

Was she treating him like a gigolo?

Alexander was a bit disappointed. So little B turned out to be a little naughty, he too could misjudge people.

“How much do you think I’m worth?”

Alexander deliberately stepped closer and lowered his head to ask her.

Elizabeth couldn’t help but turn her head slightly and step back.
