Gareth laughed in his rage. “That won’t do?”
Isn’t this what she wants?
Didn’t Elisa come here today for this reason?
Elisa’s gaze fell on Gareth, and she didn’t have the embarrassment of being caught. In fact, she
nodded at Gareth naturally.
“Will this do? How would you humble yourself and pick nine hundred and ninety-nine roses for my
sake? You might pick one or two roses reluctantly, but nine hundred and ninety-nine roses are too
much.”
Gareth ground his teeth. Elisa made him laugh in his rage again.
“How is it too much? Isn’t it just nine hundred and ninety-nine roses? Just treat it like a workout. Go and
do it now, you brat!”
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtElisa bent her head down slightly and didn’t say anything. She had come because of this today. Since
Gareth had the nerve to torment her, he had to bear the consequences.
Gareth’s face darkened, and he didn’t say a word. He didn’t intend to move at all.
Upon seeing him, Julia’s face fell. “What do you mean? You don’t want to do it? Liz has been the topic
of everyone’s discussion because of you. Do you have a conscience?”
Gareth’s expression was particularly terrifying. “Elisa is lying. There’s no such thing.”
“You’re avoiding it! Will Liz lie? Hasn’t she suffered enough for the past few years? Go and do it as
compensation to her!” Julia’s attitude was unyielding. She wouldn’t give up if Gareth didn’t go.
And she didn’t believe a word Gareth said.
Gareth was blown away.
A trace of ridicule flickered across Elisa’s eyes, but her heart felt warm because Grandma was always
helping her. How could she not feel thankful?
As for Gareth, he was in a foul mood.
Before he could say anything, Elisa looked at Julia and spoke with a gentle smile.
“I don’t want to trouble him, Grandma. It’s only natural that Gareth is unwilling to do these things, and I
can’t subject him to such injustice. Those at the company can discuss it as much as they want. At least
I haven’t lived in vain by being the topic of idle conversation. After all, some people don’t even make it
as the subject of worthless chatter.” There was a sad smile on the corner of Elisa’s lips.
She looked exceptionally woeful with such an expression.
Julia immediately held Elisa’s hand and her attitude was more resolute than before.
“This won’t do! You have to go if I say so! You brat, are you going or not?” Julia looked at Gareth with
slightly red eyes. He didn’t know if it was because of her rage or her resolve.
Gareth’s expression changed slightly. When Grandma was like that, she wouldn’t give up. If he didn’t
do it, Grandma would be ill from her rage.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmGareth’s sharp gaze was instantly directed at Elisa. Even if he didn’t say a word, Elisa understood his
expression.
He must have been saying, ‘are you happy that things have gotten this far?’
Elisa replied with a smile, “There’s no need. I won’t force you to do anything you don’t like.”
“Really?” Gareth suddenly smiled, but the iciness in his eyes was about to burst forth and flood the
entire villa with frost.
His tone sounded like he was asking a question. Upon further inspection, one would notice that it was
cold and sharp.
But Elisa was fearless. She nodded resolutely.
“Yes.”
“What do you mean by that?” Julia was displeased. At the same time, she looked at Gareth firmly, and
her voice was harsh. “You brat, let me ask you one more time. Are you going to do it or not?”
