Ex-Wife's Revenge (Alaricka) novel Chapter 147

Chapter 147

She focused on the messages on her phone, busy replying to the ones Tamika sent her.

After a while, she realized the elevator doors seemed to have been open the whole time, and no one came in.

Her heart suddenly skipped a beat.

Something like this happened in the middle of the night, and Alarieka didn’t even have the courage to look up.

She thought of herself as being reborn, and maybe there really were ghosts and monsters in the world.

Her palms were sweaty, she kept her head down, moved her feet slowly, and reached out to touch the elevator, getting ready to find the close button and press it.

“Alarieka.”

A deep, cold voice sounded in the quiet room, and Alarieka’s mind went numb. Her body even gave an involuntary shiver.

She suddenly looked up.

Kieran was standing at the elevator door, holding the door and looking down at her.

Behind Kieran was a blinding white light. He stood with his back to it, and the shadows made his face look sharper and more intense. His narrow dark eyes looked deep and cold, watching her without any

emotion.

At that moment, seeing Kieran was like seeing a ghost.

Alaricka instinctively still wanted to press the elevator door.

But there were still a bunch of people behind Kieran.

They were all in suits, respectfully following behind Kieran, looking at her and Kieran with hesitant and curious eyes.

Someone behind me asked hesitantly, “Mr. Argent, why aren’t you going in?”

Alarieka quickly stepped back, shrank into the corner, and made enough room for them to come in.

Kieran stared at her for a moment, then stepped inside.

I didn’t know if it was on purpose or not, but Kieran wasn’t standing next to her at first. He got pushed to her side by the people behind them.

Noticing Kieran’s arm against hers, she frowned and scooted into the

corner.

Then Kieran was pushed over again.

That crowd was packed together on the other side, and there was this empty space around Kieran.

But Alarieka had nowhere left to retreat.

Alarieka:

Alarieka stared straight ahead in silence, and the elevator had been really quiet, you could even hear some people breathing.

There was still some smell of alcohol.

She looked at Kieran’s clothes suspiciously, then looked at the people around.

This was an office building. Did these people really need to drink while talking business in an office building?

Someone started talking about work, and the whole elevator was filled with conversation.

Kieran grunted from time to time, his deep voice coming from above Alarieka’s head.

After the conversation ended, someone hesitantly asked, “Mr. Argent, who is this?”

Kieran answered simply: “Sister.”

Everyone laughed, “So she’s Mr. Argent’s sister. No wonder, this Ms. Argent really was pretty.”

She kept her head down, so these people couldn’t see her face clearly, and most likely took her for Clarissa.

Kieran didn’t deny it either.

The elevator finally arrived, and Alarieka waited until the crowd got out before she ran out.

The next moment, a force grabbed her wrist: “Where are you running off to?”

The person walking ahead quickly turned around to look at her and

Kieran.

Alarieka pulled at the corner of her mouth: “Of course I was going

Kieran’s voice was low: “I’ll take you.”

So many people were watching, Alaricka felt really uncomfortable: “No need.”

Kieran pulled her over to him and said in a low voice, “You didn’t have a choice.”

Someone spoke up at the right moment, smiling and saying, “Mr.

Argent and Ms. Argent had a great relationship. The brother and sister got along well.”

Alarieka gave a fake smile.
