Chapter 509
Hearing Jerry’s words, Gareth can’t help but pull a long face.He shot a cold glance at
Jerry, “That’s my business.”
“Your business?”
Jerry appeared exasperated, “Are you not a failure to the Wickam family? Take a look
at what has become of Wickam Group ever since you divorced Liz.Do you have any
idea what other people say about you? I have no desire for fame and wealth but look
at how you treat is.Do you think you deserve her?”
Jerry rebuked and shamed his son viciously.
Gareth wasn’t angry with Jerry.
On the contrary, he thought it was cute that his father cared for Elisa and sided with
Elisa instead of him.
Jerry pressed on, “I will help you this time.But you should think about what’s next.You

finishing speaking, Jerry left the ward.Gareth sat still and didn’t bother to look at Jerry
at all.He just stared at the unconscious Elisa.His gaze gradually tainted with nuanced
sentiments.
An hour passed.
Two hours went by.
Rachel had woken up from a nap, but she still wasn’t allowed into Elisa’s ward.She
scratched her head irritably, “Is Gareth out of his mind?? Why hasn’t he left yet?”
Sheena batted her eyes, “I think…he’s in love with Liz”
Rachel gaped in astonishment, “He’s nuts! He used to despise and maltreat Liz.How
can he suddenly have feelings for Liz? I think he is secretly on to Liz’s project!”
“Project? What project?”
Sheena had no clue about the existence of the project until Rachel explained it to her.
Sheena zoned out.
Rachel’s explanation clouded her judgment, “Is that so…?”
Rachel argued again, “What then? Gareth Wickam is a fool! Liz is a good woman, but
he only cares about that b*tchy Linda Benett.Why would he suddenly fall for Liz? He
doesn’t deserve her at all!”
Sheena was stupefied.
Did she assume wrongly about Gareth? Time passed, and finally, Elisa woke up from
her coma.
A brusque bolt of shock and ache paralyzed her senses, causing her to gasp in pain.
Gareth stared at her anxiously.He saw that she was in pain and was going to comfort
her, but…he choked back his intention.
It was unusual of him not to spew mockery at Elisa.
All he did was stare at her stolidly.
Elisa sensed the cold gaze.She looked over and saw Gareth.
She fluttered her lashes in confusion.
Am I dreaming? Why am I seeing Gareth? Why was Gareth in her dream? But…the
throbbing ache and soreness in her body assured her that Gareth was indeed sitting

She scrunched her face and said in a hoarse voice, “Why are you here? Where’s
Rachel?”
She wanted to get up from the bed but was stopped by Gareth, “She is alive and
kicking.She is doing absolutely better than you.”
Elisa breathed a sigh of relief.
Although she didn’t like Gareth, she knew he wouldn’t lie to her.
Subsequently, she looked at him again, “Then…why are you here? Were you looking
for me? I can’t do anything about the project since I am in bad shape now.”
Gareth pulled his brows together.Her words upset him.
Then, he quizzed her, “Do you find it annoying to see me here?”
Elisa was flabbergasted.
Didn’t he already know? Elisa had just regained consciousness, and her mind was still
hazy.She was just curious to see Gareth waiting by her side.
Where were Sheena and Rachel?
