Chapter 831
Elisa frowned lightly, then snickered.
Gareth is quite excellent at acting now. I could barely find anything suspicious about him.
Elisa did not voice out her thoughts. But Rachel seemed to have guessed them. She continued, "It was
just Vincent and me that time. He need not put on an act, then. He could have continued working and
pretended that nothing had happened. He wouldn't have made an effort to see you."
Elisa pursed her lips. She was reluctant to discuss this further. She merely spoke calmly. "It's all right.
He can do whatever he wants. I do not want to partake in any of his business anymore. He shouldn't
meddle with mine, either. He can do anything he wants as long as it isn't against our agreement."
There was nothing she feared at this moment. He could not blackmail here anymore. Moreover, she
knew that Gareth would not do something like that. Although he was stubborn, he still kept to his
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtprinciples.
She did not want to pay attention to this man. So she spoke calmly, "This matter has nothing to do with
me. He will leave me soon anyway. Why don't you get some rest? I reckon that you hadn't gotten much
rest either."
Rachel nodded immediately without any hesitation. "Great. Then I shall sleep for a while now."
Rachel stopped the conversation.
Elisa lied down. She did not want to care about Gareth any more.
Vincent, however, watched Gareth as he stood in the living room. His face was now more sullen.
Vincent walked towards Gareth's side and spoke softly, "Look, why are you reluctant to say out loud
that you care for her? Do you know whom you look like now?"
Gareth's face darkened. He didn't say a word and wanted to leave, but he didn't go this time. He went
to the sofa and sat down.
Vincent looked at him and spoke helplessly. "Everyone has seen your concern for Elisa today. Why do
you still hide it from her?"
Gareth stared back at him coldly. "I've told you before..."
But this time, before Gareth could finish speaking, Vincent raised his arms helplessly and said. "It's all
right... You can do whatever you want. Have a rest here first. I will make you some instant noodles. I'm
hungry now anyway."
Vincent headed to the kitchen as soon as he finished speaking.
Gareth sat on the sofa alone. Rachel and Elisa had gone to bed and showed no signs of getting up.
A little while later, the delicious aroma of food wafted from the kitchen.
Vincent walked out of the kitchen with two bowls of noodles.
He glanced at Gareth and spoke, "Come on, have some food first."
Gareth did not talk. He got up and went to the washroom to wash his hands. Then, he went to the
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmtable.
He would not have the chance to see Elisa anytime soon. But he was indeed hungry from not eating
since morning.
Vincent sat opposite Gareth and watched Gareth. At the same time, he picked up his chopsticks and
ate. After a moment of hesitation, he finally asked, "How long are you going to keep this up?"
Gareth glanced at him coldly without an answer.
He was clearly reluctant to discuss this matter.
Vincent had no choice but to pick up his chopsticks too. He did not intend to hear Gareth's answer this
time. He merely said, "Just tell her that you like her if you do. You do not have to say anything extra to
her or expect any benefits from liking her. Other people, including Elisa, should know your feelings
towards her now."
