Gareth’s gaze was fixated on Elisa until she completely disappeared from his sight. Then, he got up
and walked out of the room without any further instructions to the team.
Thomas also followed suit. Shooting a glance at his watch, he said, “It’s getting late. You guys should
get back to work.”
He quickly followed Gareth after receiving no reply.
However, everyone in the room seemed sluggish after that episode.
They exchanged glances with each other until someone broke the silence.
“Let’s just listen to her instructions from now on. Otherwise, we might get into trouble.”
Darell’s face darkened. I’ve entirely lost my authority and pride. Gareth gave me such a hard time
because of that bimbo!
Taking a deep breath to hold his anger back, he walked out of the room in large strides.

Gareth’s actions had alarmed the entire company. Rumors spread like wildfire. By the time the
information had gone around, it turned to something akin to ‘Gareth almost proposed to Elisa in front of
everyone.’
In no time, such a rumor spread outside the company and even appeared on the trending page on
Twitter.
Elisa was working when Rachel called her.
Before she could say a word, Rachel squealed. She moved the phone a few inches away from her ear
and waited for Rachel to calm down.
“What’s wrong, my overreacting friend?”
“What happened between you and Gareth? Did you get back with him?”
Elisa was dumbfounded upon hearing that.
Though she had no clue what was happening, she continued typing on her laptop. As more words
showed up on her screen, she asked, “What are you talking about?”
“You’re on the trending page, sis!”
“The trending page?” She stopped typing.
“Yeah! You can see the discussions on Twitter. Why does the entire thing seem exaggerated?”
A frown appeared on her face as she stopped working and opened Twitter.
The first post on the trending page was straight to the point.
‘Gareth begged Elisa to marry him again.’

Speechless, Elisa clicked it.
She cringed when she saw the entire post.
—-xx: ‘My relative is on the management team in Wickam Group. In one of the meetings where Mr.
Wickam and Ms. Benett were around, they flirted with each other lovingly. Mr. Wickam even promised
to organize Ms. Benett the most lavish wedding ever. He even said he would kneel to get her
forgiveness, so he could marry her again.’
—-xx: ‘Oh my gosh! Someone I know is also there, and they told me the same thing. On top of that, I
heard that Ms. Benett is rather cocky. She does whatever she likes in the company. She even wanted
to fire some experienced employees with the claim that they weren’t capable enough. I can’t believe it!’
After that, many people started writing fanfictions about Gareth and Elisa’s conversation with the plot of
marrying each other again.
