CHAPTER 47 The Biggest Beneficiary

  Alfie's POV

  I told James about the incriminating recording that Lottie had in her possession against Lewis. The reason I had contact with James was because a few days ago, he came to my house to take Lottie away.

  That day, he asked to have a private conversation with me, and I didn't refuse because I felt that I needed to explain something to him. I led him into my living room and poured him a cup of freshly brewed tea.

  He looked at me carefully as he held the teacup. Despite having experienced various grand occasions, I found myself getting slightly nervous under his scrutiny.

  "Are you dating Lottie?"

  I knew I shouldn't deceive him and be honest, but I also knew that Lottie hadn't told him about her revenge against Lewis yet. She must be hiding something, so I nodded in admission.

  "It was you who initiated the breakup?" His expression wasn't very happy when he asked that.

  I immediately shook my head. "I like Lottie but It was she who broke up with me."
