Chapter 1405 Pretending Not to Notice
Elisa's expression remained sullen. She warned, "Since you insist on behaving like this, I'll be upfront.
I'll never be yours."
"All right. I was only joking. Don't take it too seriously." Eden was still acting. His teasing tone carried a
hint of hurt.
Elisa rolled her eyes and did not say a word.
Unbeknownst to her, Gareth was at the back. Eden did this deliberately for Gareth to see.
Gareth's eyes gleamed threateningly as he watched them leave.
He felt the urge to step forward and interrupt them for a moment.
However, Elisa had said those words clearly. She did not want him to get involved. That was why she
urgently pushed Eden away.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtBased on his recent interactions with Elisa, he knew she would not change her mind easily once she
decided on something.
Meanwhile, Aaron received news about Nicole from his subordinate. "Mr. Fawler, Gareth detained Ms.
Tabor at Moonlight Coast."
Aaron frowned upon hearing that and ordered the man before him. "Get her out of there."
Nicole was the woman he loved, and he was confident she would one day be his.
Therefore, he would not tolerate anyone bullying her while he sought to win her affection.
Aaron walked out of the place he was detained and did not expect to see the person who had come to
visit him before. It was the stern-faced Mr. Osborne.
He was dressed differently from before.
Mr. Osborne wore a pink suit that contrasted jarringly with his purple hair. However, his devilishly
handsome face made everything work.
Aaron was concerned about Nicole and ignored Mr. Osborne. As he was about to get to the car, Mr.
Osborne blocked his way. "Mr. Fawler, are you going to stop playing your role?"
Mr. Osborne came to the hotel to find someone and did not expect to bump into Aaron at the entrance.
He was surprised that Nicole no longer confined Aaron in the small, dark house.
"Step aside," Aaron ordered coldly and was not in the mood to talk to him.
Mr. Osborne tsked and sneered, "Why are you in a rush? Did something happen to the woman you
like?"
Aaron's gaze darkened upon hearing him. "Why do you keep minding other people's business?"
Mr. Osborne noticed Aaron's mood and smiled. "We always used to hang out and have fun. Since you
disappeared for a few days, I must find out what happened to you. After all, we are friends, right?"
Aaron remained impatient. "Arrange a few of your people to go with me if you care about me."
"Okay."
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmMr. Osborne answered immediately without a hint of hesitation.
Then, Mr. Osborne called his subordinates and arranged for them to leave with Aaron.

Meanwhile, Gareth appeared before Nicole.
Nicole did not dare to move out of fear of the effect of the needles on her body. She remained in the
same position for a long time and felt stiff and numb.
Her eyes glimmered with hope when she saw Gareth coming to her. "Gareth, I don't know anything.
You believe me, right?"
Yet, Gareth pretended not to hear anything.
Elisa's hunch had always been accurate based on what he observed recently.
He recalled how Elisa deliberately tricked Nicole into revealing some things.
"Is that so?" Gareth narrowed his eyes.
