Chapter 1818 Barging Into the Room
Gareth noticed that Elisa was uncomfortable, so he acted as if he didn't want to stay in the room and inquired with
Maria about the availability of other rooms.
Elisa gave him a suspicious look and narrowed her eyes.
Maria knew Julia's intention and clearly understood why Gareth was acting this way.
She apologized and said, "Old Madam Wickam asked me to tidy up these two rooms. I wouldn't be able to get
another room ready in time. Is there something wrong?"
Elisa shook her head. She didn't want to bother Maria over this matter late at night. After all, she only had to
tolerate it for one night.
Even though their rooms were right next to each other and they had to share a balcony, she could ensure the doors
were locked at night.

immediately headed off to bed.
The corners of Maria's lips were lifted in a big smile the entire time. Seeing that "Madam" agreed to stay, she took
the other staff away, afraid that they would disturb their privacy.
This left Elisa and Gareth standing face to face, staring at each other.
Elisa squinted her eyes, yawning away her exhaustion. Gareth was met with a serious gaze from her as she spoke,
"I'll sleep in the room on the left. I'm locking the doors. If you don't want to be perceived as a pervert, please don't
wander around aimlessly."
Before Gareth could say anything, Elisa opened the door to the room on the left and went in. Her actions were swift
and decisive, exuding an air of confidence.
Gareth stared intently at Elisa's back as she went inside. His eyes gleamed with amusement. He had no choice but
to accommodate her indifference towards him; after all, he was the one who chose her.
He sighed and turned away, shaking his head as he pushed open the door to the room on the right. However, he
had a plan in mind.
It was a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to keep himself etched in her mind all night. There was no way he was going
to let this opportunity go.
Elisa was well aware of Gareth's intentions, so the first thing she did when she entered the room was lock the
balcony door and the main entrance. She stretched her hands to work out the fatigue before heading to the
bathroom to shower.
Out of the blue, the door to the balcony opened as soon as she stepped into the bathroom.
Gareth shook the keys, a mischievous grin spreading across his face.
The room was silent. Gareth glanced around and realized that Elisa was not in the room. She had gone into the
bathroom.
Gareth waited quietly on the bed for Elisa to get out of the shower. The sound of the water gushing in the bathroom
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmmade his heart swell with anticipation. He felt the heat rise in his body almost instantaneously. He swallowed his
saliva and scolded himself for not getting himself together. He couldn't even see her, but his mind raced at the
sound of the water falling in the shower.
The time he spent waiting for her to come out slowly became long and dreadful.
After twenty minutes, the water in the shower finally stopped. She took her time, applying lotion to her body. Gareth
stared at the shadow on the bathroom window, his throat feeling dry. He got up from the bed to pour himself a cup
of water.
Elisa stepped out of the bathroom, wrapped in a towel. His eyes widened as he took in her wet, glistening skin. She
looked incredibly alluring, and he couldn't help but stare.
They locked eyes for a moment, and the air between them was suddenly charged with electricity. Gareth felt his
heart pounding in his chest, and he knew that Elisa felt it too.
Gareth cleared his throat awkwardly. He couldn't get the image of her fresh out of the shower out of his head.
Elisa's mouth gaped slightly in shock as she saw Gareth standing before her. Her forehead creased in anger as she
hurried back into the bathroom to wrap herself in a bathrobe.
"Gareth Wickam!" she shouted, her jaws clenched and her eyes flaring red with anger.
