Chapter 226 However, she was unaware that the closer she got, the stronger the scent was, and the darker Gareth’s face became. He was still standing at the door without even taking off his shoes.
As she was about to reach him, he yelled, “Don’t chere!” What on earth is she wearing? It stinks! If Linda could hear his thoughts right now, she would be trembling with fury.

She stood at the sspot and looked at him in shock. “Garry, | didn’t want to ruin your relationship with Elisa back then, and | tried to make you guys like each other more. But... now that you are enemies, | know it's impossible for you to be together. Do you know that | met you and fell for you way before she did? You also once mentioned that you'd marry me. H-Has everything changed?” She smiled self-deprecatingly. “It seems like I'm the only one with wishful thoughts. | won't get the wrong idea anymore.” With that, she wiped her tears away and smiled at him. “And | won't be causing any trouble in the future. | shouldn't have had any expectations in the first place.” Then, she turned around and walked upstairs slowly, waiting for Gareth to call her back.
However, when she was halfway up the stairs, he still did not make any moves. She wanted to turn around and look at him, but she did not dare to do so. She was betting on him giving in to her.
Apart from that, she started counting down internally.
Five. Four. Three. Two.
Her pace beceven slower. Just when she was about to reach the last digit, he suddenly said, “I'm busy with a lot of stuff right now, so | don’t have any more energy to marry you. The company is also in a mess. You know what would happen if we got married now.” Linda's eyes lit up. It's enough that he gavean explanation! She immediately turned around to look at him. “Garry, you are still willing to marry me, aren't you?” As soon as she finished her question, she could not control herself anymore and started walking toward him, but he still had a tight frown on his face.
“It's not the right time, and the media is keeping close tabs on us. Wickam Group can't afford to have any more scandals. Please don’t chere again, Linda.” Standing rooted to the ground, she blanched when she heard that. She thought he was trying to explain things to her, but it seemed like an excuse to chase her away now.

However, Gareth was not an average man. He merely shot a cold glance at her before saying, “Pack your things and leave. | have other matters to deal with.” With that, he turned around and walked out without a second glance at her, leaving her in a state of shock.
How could he? How could he leave like this? She wanted to chase after him, but her rational mind told her that there was no further discussion to be had. If she pestered on, he would be even more annoyed.
