Chapter 1668
When Love Comes Late
Elizabethâs hands clenched tightly, her whole body trembling with suppressed anger.
Her hatred for Kristian remained unabated, fueled by memories of his past transgressions.
But for now, she had more pressing matters to attend to.
The following day, Elizabeth arrived at Reputation Group with determination etched on her face.
Approaching the receptionist, she cut straight to the point.
âIâm here to see Andrew.
â
Maintaining a professional demeanor, the receptionist inquired, âDo you have an appointment? Without one, Iâm afraid I canât allow you to see him.

Elizabethâs expression hardened, her tone turning icy.
âI donât need an appointment to see Andrew Griffin,â she retorted.
âInform him that Elizabeth is here, and he had better come out to meet me, or there will be consequences.
â
The receptionist hesitated, sensing Elizabethâs unwavering determination.
After a brief pause, she offered a polite but firm response.
âIâm sorry, miss.
Mr.
Griffin is currently in a meeting.
Please take a seat and wait.
Weâll notify you when heâs available.
â
Elizabeth snorted in frustration but reluctantly complied, taking a seat.
Andrew was her ex-boyfriend, and their breakup had been contentious.
He had been controlling and possessive, which had ultimately led to their separation.
Reflecting on their past, Elizabeth quickly refocused her thoughts.
Last night, Kristian had spoken the truth-Seamarsh belonged to Matthewâs territory, and their influence there was limited.
After careful consideration, Elizabeth realized that Andrew might be the only person who could help her now.
She waited in the reception area for over an hour, her impatience growing with each passing minute.
Just as she was about to lose her temper, Andrew finally emerged.
Meeting his icy gaze, Elizabeth braced herself for his chilly demeanor.
His voice matched the frostiness in his eyes as he addressed her.
âWhatâs your game this time?â he demanded.
Elizabeth had grown accustomed to Andrewâs aloof demeanor.
If she hadnât needed his assistance this time, she wouldnât have subjected herself to his coldness.
She got straight to the point, stating, âIâve heard youâre investing in a big project in Seamarsh.
I want a role in it.
It doesnât have to be a lead, even a supporting role will do.
â
After a brief, chilly stare, Andrew responded brusquely, âYouâre not suitable.
â
Turning to leave, Andrew was stopped in his tracks by Elizabethâs firm voice.
âAndrew!â Elizabeth intercepted him, her tone laced with a veiled threat.
âDonât overlook the fact that you owe my mother a favor!â
