Chapter 503 Gareth heeded the breach at the door and was startled when he saw the intruder was his father.
Jerry was surprised to see him, too, “I didn’t expect you would come.” Gareth looked away, deliberately ignoring him.
Jerry walked up to Elisa.
He let out a weary sigh when he saw the frail Elisa lying in vegetation, “Liz was fortunate to only break a rib after falling from such a height’ “Fortunate?” There was contempt in Gareth’s tone and eyes.
Jerry looked at him, puzzled, “What's the matter?” Gareth didn’t speak.

Nobody could've survived a freak accident, crashing from a high altitude in a car like Elisa.
Not only that, but she also protected her friend from jeopardy.
His gaze turned murky as he pined for Elisa.He always thought that Elisa was a selfish and opportunistic woman.He didn’t expect that she would choose to save her friend, Rachel.
Because of her intervention, Rachel was almost unscathed.
Was she the Elisa he once thought? After the divorce, she changed into another person.
She had beca stranger to him.
Was it because he hadn't known Elisa enough, or...because Elisa had been putting on a false front all this while? Gareth glowered as he ruminated on his thought.
His anguish spiraled.
He digressed as he noticed that Jerry was staring at him, “Make sure Grandma doesn’t know about this.” “Well, | have sorted out the mess.No one else should know about this.” Jerry asked Gareth, “What about you? Why did you cand see her?” Gareth didn’t respond.He pursed his lips and refrained from explaining.
Jerry carried on and said, “Although you were husband and wife, Liz only suffered a broken rib from the cliff crash this time.Since you've always put work above anything else, you should return to work now.” Gareth shot a cold gaze at his father.
Why was everyone treating him bitingly of late? The scorn in his father’s eyes was too obvious to overlook.

He uttered, “I know what to do.” Jerry was disappointed in his son.
Presently, Jerry was sitting opposite Gareth, where both of them sat facing Elisa in their respective position.
Jerry criticized again, “She has suffered enough bad reputation.Stop coming near her if you do not mean to marry her.Do you wish to see people shher for being the woman who stole Linda Benett’s husband?” The tension in the air was getting poignant.
The ward felt even colder all of a sudden.
But Jerry had no qualms about the escalating tension between them because he knew his son’s temperament.
“Liz won't want to see you when she wakes.You should leave at once.| will hire someone to keep her safe here.” Gareth darted a fierce gaze at Jerry, “Dad, | don’t need you to worry about my way of living.” “You'll be engaged to Linda soon, but you're still messing around with Liz. This is not you, and you shouldnt do this.” Gareth bit his teeth, withdrew his gaze, and pronounced, “I won't be engaged to Linda.” Gareth’s words frightened the life out of Linda, who had just arrived at the hospital and was standing outside Elisa's ward.
The father and son in the ward didn’t know Linda had overheard their conversation.
