NovelEnglishChapter 177 It Was Just Wishful Thinking Will glanced at his assistant, and the both of them entered an empty room. His assistant proceeded to tell him what had happened at Old Madam Wickam's birthday banquet.
Will narrowed his eyes but didn’t say a word.
His assistant told him every detail for fear of leaving out something important. He didn’t presume to know which detail was more or less important and told Will what had happened with no embellishment.
Will chortled, “Gareth thought he could win her back?” His assistant was surprised. “Gareth wanted to win her back? How is that possible? He had never showed any interest in Ms.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtBenett. You could even say he was disgusted by her.” “Gareth isn't the type to be forced to do anything he doesn’t want to do. Even if Old Madam Wickam had made him do it, he totally could have carried her in from the back entrance. So why did he do it in front of everyone?” Will smirked.
From his time spent with Elisa, he knew that she was completely done with this relationship.
If it weren't for her shoes, she would not have let Gareth touched her. That was the only reason she allowed that to happen.
His assistant smiled, “Mr. Darcey, why are we sitting here plotting when we are sure that there is no chance that Ms. Benett will take him back. We just need to follow our original plan.” “It might not be that easy.” Will narrowed his eyes.
His assistant stared at him in surprise.
“Have someone observe and look into Elisa’s and Carle Semoa’s past.” He ordered.
Previously, his initial investigation on Elisa only showed Carle as her friend, but now he wanted to look deeper into it.
“Understood, sir.” His assistant nodded.
Meanwhile, Elisa and Carle had both returned to their room.
Rachel exited the toilet only to see Elisa in low spirits. She stumbled over and said in disgust, “What's going on with you? You haven't drunk half as much as we did and now you've stopped? No! You must drink more!” “I'll drink with you. Elisa has a headache.” Carle was frustrated.

They enjoyed themselves a bit more before deciding to leave. Elisa felt fine. She hadn't drunk anymore after that, and her headache had subsided significantly.
Rachel swayed from side to side as she walked. Elisa and Sheen held an arm each to keep her from falling over. “You lousy drunkard! You have no sense of control. Why did you have to drink so much if you couldn't hold your liquor! And now all of us will have to look after you!” Sheena scolded teasingly.
“Looking after me is a privilege! | wouldn't just allow anyone to do that! Elisa, I'm staying over at yours tonight!” Rachel declared.
“I've talked to the family driver, and we'll take all of you home.” Carle said in exasperation.
Carle sent them home and walked Elisa and Rachel upstairs to their apartment before returning to the car.
Sheena was sitting at the back, leaning against the seat with her eyes closed. She opened her eyes when she heard the door opened only to see Carle back in the passenger seat.
Sheena stared at his handsome profile and asked softly, “Carle, do you have a crush on Elisa? Will no one do except her?” Carle froze and chuckled, “Yes, but Elisa only sees me as a friend. It's just wishful thinking on my part.” “Wishful thinking...” Sheena repeated. Wishful thinking huh... That's what she was doing too.
