NovelEnglishChapter 53 To the Wall After hearing that, Julia had completely lost her temper. “Monica! Listen to what you’ve just said! Get
your *ss upstairs!”
Monica frowned upon hearing that. This time around, she, too, defied Julia’s wishes and continued to
speak to Elisa darkly, “Elisa, I’m sure you know the ugly truth without me saying it out loud. Now, you
have two choices.”
Elisa arched her eyebrows. “Go on.”
Her nonchalant reply angered Monica further. However, the latter believed that Elisa would start
panicking when she hears what she had to say.
“First, finalize the divorce. From now onwards, you will be strangers to us, and we won’t give you a
single cent. Second–”
“Save your breath. I’ll take the first option,” Elisa interrupted decisively, making Monica almost lose her
sanity.

“Grandma, it’s not early anymore, and I don’t have intentions to stay for too long. Have a great
evening.”
Julia nodded. “Sure. Take care on your way home.”
“Elisa Benett, contact the media for a public apology right away and tell them today was a prank! Clarify
that this has nothing to do with Wickam Group and that you are not having a divorce!”
However, Elisa arched her eyebrows upon hearing that. Knowing that this was Monica’s second option,
she could not stop chuckling. “Mrs. Wickam, didn’t you say that I had two choices? If that’s the case,
why do you ask me to apologize? I put so much effort into getting a divorce. If I apologize now, how can
I proceed with it?”
“You–”
Smiling, Elisa rose from her seat. “Mrs. Wickam, I hope that we will never meet again. In the past, I
tolerated everything because you are older than me, but from now onwards…”
Her beam became wider as her voice trailed off nonchalantly.
“Elisa Benett!”
Julia heaved a sigh. It had been difficult for her to be their middleman. She looked at Elisa before
saying once more, “Take care.”
This time around, Elisa nodded and immediately turned around to leave.
She knew that Julia was in a difficult position. Even though the latter took pity on her, it was Wickam
Group that had been affected the most.
Nevertheless, unexpected to her, just as she opened the door, she saw a figure standing right outside.
The man’s sharp gaze sent a shiver down her spine.
She took a step back involuntarily to give way to him.
As soon as Monica saw her son, her anger slightly abated, but she still fumed angrily, “Gareth, keep an
eye on Elisa! She defied my wishes just now! The scandal between you guys has already been made
public – isn’t that enough? This time around, you have to make Elisa apologize in public. Get out of
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmhere and discuss this among the two of you!”
Julia was speechless upon hearing that. She heaved a sigh and decided to stay out of their matters.
Things are already at the worst point.
After seeing Elisa, Gareth did not even budge. His stern gaze lingered on her, but upon seeing her
unfazed look, he smiled sarcastically before dragging her away from the house with a darkened face.
It was against her wishes to be dragged away by him, so her expression immediately changed. “Let me
go!”
However, her words fell on deaf ears as he pulled her to a deserted area before letting go of her
abruptly, making her stumble.
She quickly stabilized herself so that she would not fall over.
With a frown on her face, she said, “You’re sick.”
That was all she had to say to him before she turned around to leave, for she could not be bothered
saying anything else.
“Elisa!”
Gareth’s cold voice rang from behind her back, but she had no intention of stopping for him.
With a dark look on his face, he quickly chased after her and pulled her arms again. Without waiting for
her response, he pushed her to the wall immediately.
