Chapter 1176 A Sense of Existence
"Grandma is active on social media. Our appearance at such a public place will surely be spotted by others and
posted on the Internet. Since we've already gotten off work, why don't we head over now?"
Gareth did not respond but stood up. He had no intention of talking or paying attention to Elisa.
Elisa was not bothered because she was used to Gareth's cold attitude. She never had a sense of existence around
Gareth. She was depressed in the past, but now she couldn't care less and was at ease to be ignored by Gareth.
She stood up and walked out of the restaurant with Gareth.
Gareth gave Jeremy a call, who was headed to Wickam Manor too.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtAfter getting into the car, Elisa fastened her seat belt. Gareth didn't say a word throughout the journey.
Elisa was bored, so she took out her phone and scrolled through Twitter.
She couldn't search for any news about Nicole, but the pictures of her and Gareth walking out of Wickam Group
were posted on the Internet. There were also pictures of them eating together in the restaurant.
There was a multitude of comments under the post. Some suggested they were a perfect match; some opined they
should stay away from each other since they were divorced; some remarked their private affair shouldn't influence
the collaboration between their companies.
There were also people who felt sorry for Nicole because Elisa appeared as a love rival.
Elisa smirked as she deemed the comments as jokes. If she took them to heart, she might genuinely think Gareth
and her were a perfect match. Or, she would be upset at the nasty comments.
She did not expect her news to often become trending topics ever since the divorce, and she was astonished by the
impact. Nevertheless, she didn't deliberately hide the haters' comments because it could cause the situation to
spiral. Although hiding the comments could be a quick solution, the netizens who were active on Twitter would
notice her action. If she attempted to explain, it would only make matters worse.
Nicole's incident was the best example. Because she deliberately suppressed certain reports, the netizens created
various sarcastic memes to criticize her.
Elisa kept away her phone after scrolling through Twitter. It seemed like she had involuntarily made enemies. In the
past, Nicole didn't like her but would not mess with her. Moving forward, Elisa was worried that some people with
evil intentions would instigate Nicole to come after her.
If Nicole became her enemy, she would be a powerful one. In fact, Elisa was not intimidated by her, but she just

wanted to avoid trouble if possible.
Gareth focused on the road and did not intend to talk to Elisa. He had no idea what was on Elisa's mind. Soon, they
arrived at the manor.
Julia was surprised upon seeing their arrival. "Hey, you're finally here. Why don't you have dinner at home?"
Elisa's eyes flickered. Sure enough, Julia had seen the pictures of them eating together on Twitter.
Gareth answered calmly, "It wouldn't be a date if we ate at home."
Elisa was tongue-tied. She knew Gareth said it to coax Julia, so she did not retort to him. The most important
agenda now was to make Julia happy.
