She didn’t know how to go on and if she should tell Jerry about it.
“Hmm?” It was the first time Jerry had seen his mother hesitate.
“What is it that you can’t tell me?”
Julia’s eyes flashed. In the end, she told Jerry what had happened.
Astonishment flickered across his eyes. “He wants to reconcile with Elisa?”
Julia nodded. “But I still feel like he’s tricking me somehow. Does he really like Liz? If he doesn’t, I don’t want him to
hurt Liz again.”
Jerry didn’t say anything, as if he was thinking about something.
Julia chattered on. “I’m worried, but I don’t know what to do. If I try to get them together as I did back then, it’s not
fair to Liz, but what if Gareth regrets it? Liz used to like him so much back then. She might have put it down for the

She paused for a moment and couldn’t help but continue, “Many times, things aren’t what I say they are. Many
things depend on themselves… Sigh.”
Jerry nodded. “That’s right. Mom, I think you shouldn’t interfere in this. Let the kids be. We can’t stop Gareth from
doing what he wants to do. At the same time, I don’t want Liz to feel wronged. If you keep playing matchmaker for
them, Liz will listen to you for your sake. It will put her in a difficult position.”
Julia couldn’t help but nod. She sighed and said, “Yes… I’m afraid of that, so I don’t dare to mess around. But now,
what I don’t understand is if Gareth is feeling remorseful. Don’t tell me he has other motives!”
Jerry’s brows furrowed. For a moment, he didn’t know what to say.
But he felt that his son shouldn’t have such a poor character.
He paused and finally said, “Just leave this aside and let it be.”
Julia opened her mouth and was about to say something, but she didn’t know what to say. The agitation in her heart
grew.
“Ah… this child causes so much trouble!” Old Madam Wickam couldn’t help but sigh. She didn’t say anything else.
Herry smiled and didn’t say anything.
…
After Gareth met up with Jerry, he returned to the office.
It was just that…
He didn’t work. He sat behind his office desk, and the scene of eating dinner with Elisa unconsciously appeared in
his mind.
It was as if he could remember every frown and every smile of hers.
In an instant, Gareth’s expression changed. When he came to his senses, his face was particularly nasty.

Gareth’s lips pursed tightly, and his gaze was cold.
He took a breath in as though calming his emotions before turning on the computer and preparing to work.
…
When Elisa reached home, she showered and got ready for bed.
But…
She never expected that her cell phone would ring as soon as she lay on the bed.
Looking at the caller ID, her features froze slightly, and she slowly answered the call.
“What’s up?”
In the past, she would call him ‘Mr. Darcey’.
But ever since what had happened, she called him ‘Will’ and said that she would treat him as a friend. She had no
way to call him ‘Mr. Darcey’ after that. She didn’t want to call him ‘Will’ so often either, as she felt that it was quite
uncomfortable.
“Can’t I look for you if nothing is up?” The magnetic and gentle voice rang in her ear.
Elisa’s eyes flashed slightly. She held on to her cell phone and didn’t say anything.
