Chapter 1126 The Only Relative
"Huh..." Rachel made a disgusted sound and said, "Forget it! Please spare me the details! Going back to the Markee
family is the last thing I want in the world! I don't want to interact with them in any way. I can support myself
financially, work for myself, and advance my profession. I feel at ease not seeing them. Why should I expose myself
to ridicule by remaining there?"
"Forget about this for now." Eventually, Elisa spoke this phrase, to which Rachel retorted, "I'm going to blow dry my
hair. We'll talk later."
"Okay. Be careful, babes. Don't burn yourself!" Rachel reminded her.
"Okay."

"Goodnight."
And so, the two hung up the phone.
Elisa went back to her room to rest after drying her hair.
...
Three days had passed by.
For the past few days, Elisa had been going to the old mansion of the Wickam family every day.
At this moment, she was chatting with older people in the Wickam family's old mansion. They had just finished
dinner.
Gareth had initially wanted to stay in the living room, but after seeing the old housekeeper giving him a few
threatening glares, he had to go to his study. He needed to talk to Elisa.
But...
He knew that there was no chance in his current situation.
However, he couldn't stay in the study for over half an hour. He walked out, and Julia saw him and asked, "Where

"Going for a walk." Gareth didn't even turn his head and said these few words.
He usually went for a walk after dinner at night, and Julia didn't suspect anything, so she didn't say anything. She
turned her head and continued to chat with Elisa with a smile.
Elisa was in good spirits and showed no signs of her illness. Elisa had also noticed that her condition had improved
significantly, thanks to her pulse diagnosis.

They chatted for more than half an hour. Elisa smiled and said, "Grandma, it's getting late. I should go back."
Julia looked at the time and was a little surprised. "Oh, it's already past eight o'clock..."
Elisa smiled, and Julia reluctantly said, "It will be ten o'clock when you finish packing and returning. You have been
coming to see me for the past few days and have probably delayed many things. You don't have to accompany me
all the time. I know you are respectful to me."
Elisa smiled. "I don't have much to do recently. Maybe grandma is getting tired of me."
"Nonsense! How could I get tired of you? Now that you have taken over the Benett Group and become the board
chairman, there will be more things to do. You should also pay attention to work-life balance. When everything
stabilizes, it's not too late to come and see me."
Elisa's eyes were filled with gratitude. Grandma was good to her. It would probably be her life's regret if she
couldn't cure her. Her father had passed away a long time ago, and now...
