Chapter 255 We Have Plenty of T“Did | cat the wrong time?” Gareth did not close the door when he chere, so when Elisa arrived, she immediately saw Gareth and Linda intimately close.
Linda's expression froze, but she soon put on a smile and said, “Elisa, you're here. Please cin!” She looked at Elisa defensively and wondered how much of their conversation did she hear. Linda was unable to argue for herself during the banquet. If Elisa contradicted Linda again, Linda's image would be completely ruined.
Gareth turned to Elisa with a stern gaze. His gaze seemed to contain conflicting emotions.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtElisa pursed her lips. Naturally, she heard Linda and Gareth’s conversation about the banquet. However, she did not care what Gareth thought about it and had no plan to bring up the matter.
She glanced at Gareth and smiled. “Mr. Wickam, | heard you are working overttonight. That's why | cto see Linda. | didn’t expect you to forgo overtfor Linda's sake and chere. Sorry for disturbing your ttogether.” Elisa placed a fruit basket on the table as she spoke.
Linda was relieved that Elisa was not going to talk about the matter from the banquet. She glanced at Gareth and found him staring sternly at Elisa.
That cheered her up. She thought Gareth was annoyed with Elisa.
Thus, she tugged Gareth’s arm and said worriedly, “Garry, | only have a minor injury, so you don’t have to chere often and delay work. It would makefeel bad.” Elisa watched how close Gareth and Linda were and smirked.
Initially, Gareth wanted to pull his arm away, but Elisa was here, so he decided not to. Instead, he said in a gentle tone, “Work is not as important as you.” Elisa was rendered speechless.
How romantic those words are.
Linda was surprised. Gareth had not spoken to her like this for stime. She did not expect him to speak so tenderly.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmThus, she was touched by his words and shook her head. “Garry...” Her eyes began to well up with tears. If Gareth continued to speak, she might burst into tears.
Elisa gave a slight smirk. “Linda, even a little thing like this moves you to the verge of tears. Gareth has done so much for you. It seems you will be crying all your life.” Her words were full of mockery but she made it sound casual. Linda turned to Elisa and said awkwardly, “I'm... I'm sorry.” She quickly let go of Gareth’s arm and did not dare to grab onto him as before.
Just now, she was able to cling to Gareth by pretending to be caught in the heat of the moment. But Elisa’s words forced her to feign realization. Otherwise, it would seem like Linda deliberately held onto Gareth’s arm. She did not want him to suspect her.
Damn you, Elisa! Why do you keep ruining things for me? Unfortunately, Linda did not know that even if Elisa was not around, Gareth would never let her touch him.
Meanwhile, Gareth looked at Elisa coldly but did not say anything.
Elisa said casually, “I should have cto see you earlier, but | heard Gareth is always by your side, so it didn’t seem right forto visit. However, | still ended up interrupting both of you by accident today. Linda, since someone is always here to take care of you, | won't chere to bother you anymore. I'll see you again after you're discharged from the hospital.” Linda's eyes gleamed, and she nodded eagerly. Then, she smiled and said, “Elisa, you are busy with work every day, so there's no need to chere to see me. We have a lot of tto meet in the future.” Her words carried a deeper meaning and implied Elisa was unwilling to visit her.
However, Elisa pursed her lips and did not seem to care about Gareth’s murderous gaze. She looked straight at him.
