Chapter 373 Why Can’t I Go Back?
Gareth averted his gaze to the draft again. The gown had a creative design, and he had never seen
such an outstanding quality of design. Every detail of the gown was dazzling not because it was
embellished with many pearls, but because it was a very special gown itself, especially the design at its
chest and waist. Truth be told, Gareth even had the urge to make Elisa wear the gown to see the actual
appearance.
“Answer me.”
Elisa nodded. “Yeah.”
Before Gareth could say anything, Elisa quickly added. “She’s busy and could only make one design.”
While saying that, she dismissed the sarcasm in her eyes. This wedding gown…
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtHer eyes were filled with complicated emotions as she had yet to reconcile herself to her grievance.
Gareth pressed his lips and did not utter a word. However, his eyes continued staring at the design. For
some reason, he found the simple yet elegant style rather familiar…
A moment later, he suddenly examined Elisa with his sharp eyes while Elisa closed her eyes to rest,
pretending to not have noticed his gaze.
Once again, silence was restored in the car. As much as the two might seem to be enemies to each
other, no one could stand in between them. In fact, Thomas thought Linda seemed to be out of place
when she was with them.
They didn’t head back to the hotel directly because it was lunchtime. After arriving at the restaurant,
Gareth had no intention of moving after sitting down on his chair. Thomas passed the menu to Elisa
and said with a smile, “Ms. Elisa, why don’t you order the food?”
Elisa darted a glance at Gareth before receiving the menu. After thinking about it, she named a few
dishes and passed the menu back to Thomas. “I’ll leave the rest to you.” Thomas nodded.
Originally, Gareth’s expression was still gloomy, but Thomas could clearly observe that his expression
softened after Elisa made the order. Truth was, most of the dishes Elisa ordered were Gareth’s favorite
dishes. Nonetheless, his mood lightened up not because of the food that was ordered, but because…
Thomas let out a soft cough and continued browsing the menu.
Soon, the dishes were served. The three people ate in silence, and the atmosphere was rather
peaceful. After lunch, they returned to the hotel.
After getting out of the lift, Elisa turned to look at Gareth and asked, “Are there any schedules this
afternoon? Did you go to meet the venue designer this morning?”
“Yeah.”
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmElisa nodded. “Then… Can we go back already? Our local suppliers are the better option for the
remaining parts.”
Gareth shot an indifferent glance at her and mumbled, “I have some other matters to attend to.”
“I see. Alright then, I’ll go back first.” Elisa answered in an understanding manner.
Gareth, who was originally relaxed, pulled a long face at once. “No way.”
Elisa was confused as she gazed at the man. “I’ve completed my tasks. Why can’t I go back first?”
Thomas sped up his pace – all he wanted was to be an invisible man and return to his room.
“We still need to work on the venue’s design. You’ll be in charge of that from now on.” Gareth replied
coldly.
Elisa was at a loss for words. If I hadn’t mentioned leaving just now, he wouldn’t have asked me to be
in charge of the venue. That is an ad-hoc task!
Thomas, who silently slipped back to his room, came back to Elisa with a pile of documents in his
hand. “Ms. Elisa, these are the proposals for the venue’s design.”
After saying that, he scurried back to his room as if he had never appeared, leaving Elisa speechless.
