Chapter 346 Scoundrel! She did not expect Gareth to behave so obnoxiously.
If Gareth wished to, it would be easy for him to exclude her and force her to leave Benett Corporation.
She knew she could not let him keep threatening her with her weakness.
Gareth looked at her mockingly. “You acted against me many times, but I was kind enough not to
expose you on the account of my grandmother. If you still don’t know your place, don’t blame me for
retaliating!”
Elisa was rendered speechless.
She clenched her teeth and said, “Fine, I’ll go then! But don’t you still need to contact them first?”
Gareth did not say anything, but Elisa knew he acknowledged what she said. Since he did not object,
Elisa drove the car back to the hotel.
The most important thing now was to find that team of designers.
If they could convince the designers to work with them, they would not need to go through other bridal
boutiques.
However, it seemed Gareth was deliberately messing with her. As soon as she parked the car in the
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇthotel’s ground floor, Gareth sent her the phone numbers of the designers.
“Call them yourself.”
After saying that, Gareth got out of the car and entered the hotel.
Elisa was fuming.
She gritted her teeth and could not even be bothered to shout at him.
She needed to get hold of Gareth’s weakness soon so that he would stop threatening her this way. She
had enough of his constant threats.
However, she decided to give in this time.
She took out her phone and began to call the numbers.
…
Time flew by that afternoon.
Elisa did all she could and managed to secure a few designers.
She did not insist they go to the company, but they needed to complete the collaboration first. Later,
someone will discuss their employment benefits.
Elisa gulped down a whole bottle of water to clear her parched throat. Then, she gave Gareth a call.
He picked it up quickly.
Elisa explained everything to him.
However, Gareth asked flatly, “Where are you?”
“I’m in the hotel.”
She noticed Gareth was not around when she returned to the hotel.
“Thomas will pick you up.”
Elisa frowned. “What for?”
“He will tell you.”
Gareth hung up right after that.
Elisa felt it would be much better to communicate with Thomas than Gareth. As she was about to put
her phone down, Thomas called.
Elisa answered it straight away.
“Ms. Benett.”
“Hi, Mr. May. Where will you be sending me?”
“I’ll take you to a stylist. Gareth has already chosen an evening gown for you.”

Thomas cleared his throat and answered, “There’s a banquet…”
Elisa furrowed her brow immediately. “Am I to attend as his date?”
“Erm…”
“Is he insane? Does he not know that our situation makes it inappropriate for us to attend together?”
How can he expect me to accept this?
He’s crazy!
Elisa continued to curse Gareth in her mind.
Thomas cleared his throat again before saying, “This time… Gareth wants to bring Old Madam Wickam
out to help with her recovery. If you attend tonight’s banquet with him, she would believe that Gareth
has changed for the better about you.”
Elisa’s expression darkened. “Does he take her for a fool? Tell him he should find his own way to cheer
Grandma up. Don’t drag me into this. I’m not going.”
Thomas did not know what to say.
He had told her everything he needed to. But if Elisa refused to go, he had no other choice.
Thus, Thomas sighed helplessly and said, “Ms. Benett, if you refused to go, Mr. Wickam will…”
Thomas could not bring himself to finish his sentence.
Elisa’s expression turned vicious.
That scoundrel!
