“Really?” Jeremy threw shade at Vincent.
Vincent was on the brink of losing his temper, “Of course! I paid for her meal before I left the restaurant!
My only intention was to make her return the heirloom to me!”
Gareth looked at him indifferently, as if he had seen through Vincent’s heart. Still, he refrained from
commenting because he knew Vincent wasn’t ready for the hard truth.
Jeremy turned to Gareth, “What do you think, Gareth?”
“There’s no point in me saying anything since he’s unwilling to face reality.” He said coldly, as if he
didn’t want to talk about it.
Vincent burst out a cackle and chided, “I refuse to face reality? How about you?? What’s up with you
and Elisa?”
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtGareth creased his forehead. He was reminded of the tabloid stings, and suddenly the fury within
sprang to life.
The other two men noticed his mood change. Vincent was delighted to point out, “Don’t be a hypocrite.
Look at yourself. You’re attempting to win back your ex-wife, but I’m not. I’m entwined with Rachel over
my mother’s heirloom. We are in different scenarios.”
Gareth glowered, “I think Elisa is a good wife material.”
“Is it really because she is a good wife material? Tsk. Don’t lie to yourself, my friend. Your rationale
doesn’t make sense to us. In fact, we think marriage is expendable in your case. If you want a baby to
carry on your lineage, you can just find any woman, for that matter. But why do you insist on Elisa?”
Gareth uttered coldly, “I’ve said it. I think she’s a good wife material.”
“What a lot of crap! Why not Nicole? She’s clearly better than Elisa in all aspects.” Vincent bombarded
Gareth without holding back his tongue.
Jeremy sat aside quietly with a smile on his face. He was accustomed to Vincent’s artless and explicit
mannerisms.
Gareth glared at Vincent, “Don’t poke your nose in my business before you settle yours with Rachel.
You have feelings for her.”
“Cr*p! Bulls*it! How is it possible for me to fall in love with that tomboy?! No man in this world would
want her. A handsome and charming man like me has plenty of admirers. How could I possibly have
feelings for her?” Vincent snapped back at Gareth. He also didn’t reserve to sabotage Rachel’s
reputation.
Gareth pressed his lips into a line and ignored him.
Meanwhile, Jeremy uttered casually, “Look into your heart. You’re now behaving like the old Gareth.”
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmVincent was horrified at Jeremy’s words. He defended himself, “How could you say I’m like him?”
After he finished speaking, his mind was instinctually inundated with images of Rachel. He even
remembered the feeling of carrying her on his shoulder. She was weightless, as if she were a feather.
Thinking of this, Vincent got shocked in introspection. Dam* it! Why did he suddenly think of that
woman?!
Jeremy carried on, “You fool around with other women and leave them after a brief fling. But you are so
invested in understanding Rachel. You never stopped seeing her these past few years; you’ll look for
her almost every other day. You’ve never cared for a woman like how you care for her. Who knows,
your heart has changed over time and unknowingly fell for her?”
Vincent was at a loss for words.
He zoned out for a while before he shouted with disgust, “I’ll never spend my life with that tomboy! I
have no desire for tomboys!!”
