Chapter 1458 Don't BlAnyone Else "Please escort the others out of the casino first,” Elisa said, turning to face Mr. North.
"Of course,” Mr. North said, his tone respectful and deferential.
Mr. North gave a curt nod, indicating that he understood her instructions. He then turned to his subordinates and signaled them to leave the room.
Elisa's eyes were drawn to the washroom, where she saw Mr. Carrerra lying on the ground. He was unmoving, and his hands were tied behind his back.
"You're quite the philanthropist, aren't you?" Gareth said, his tone mocking and condescending.
Gareth's scornful remark was like a brick to her head, its impact knocking her senseless.
Elisa was momentarily caught off guard by his remark, her mind reeling with confusion.

She would definitely start setting him up on dates as soon as he returned home.
This meant that there would be no more opportunities for them to see each other in the future.
Gareth fell silent under Elisa's icy stare.
His words caught in his throat, unable to answer her questions.
She was right. What was he so upset about? He had achieved his goal, and he could be on his way back to his hcountry if he accepted the casino boss’ offer.

"I would be a coward if | left you here to face danger alone. You were the one who helpedget the Ganoderma Caligo, Elisa. | will not abandon you," he enunciated the last few words with conviction.

If only he could be honest with himself.
Elisa chuckled. "I understand your concern, but you don't need to feel guilty about leavinghere. | chose to stay because | have something important to do." "You should take the casino boss’ offer. It would be difficult for you to keep the Ganoderma Caligo safe with so many people after it," she advised him.
She had said all she needed to say and was about to walk away.
However, Gareth stepped in front of her, blocking her way.
His dark, fathomless eyes bore into her. "What do you have to do here?" The Benett Corporation was now hers, Linda was gone, and her true identity was coming to light.
Even Mr. Carrera's five subordinates were now under her control.
He was baffled by what else she could possibly be doing here.

They were now just two strangers who had once been married.
"Gareth, please stay out of my business and focus on your own. I'm leaving now. If you stay here, don't blanyone else if you lose the Ganoderma Caligo," she uttered, her voice cold and detached.
After giving him a stern warning, she walked past him, not even glancing in his direction.

Elisa was now under the protection of the casino boss and was well-respected by everyone in the casino.
"You..." His mind was a whirlwind of thoughts, but he couldn't find the words to express them.
