Chapter 888 Pretends to be Virtuous
"I understand your feelings and know you don't want to hurt anyone. I'm not asking you to sabotage
Elisa. I'm just resentful about them reconciling. I can't be with Gareth anymore, but I'd rather you be
with him than Elisa. You don't know how conniving she is. She doesn't like him at all. She's just…"
She paused dramatically to pique Nicole's interest.
Nicole looked at Linda, waiting for her to continue.
Linda sighed, "Elisa has a motive for getting closer to him. Why do you think we had a fallout? Why
would I want them to divorce?"
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtNicole's forehead creased. "Why?"
"When Elisa's father was still alive, I accidentally overheard their conversation one day." Linda snorted.
Nicole listened attentively.
Linda let out another snort. "Neither the father nor the daughter is up to any good. They had been
plotting to sabotage Gareth's career after the marriage. Though Elisa and Gareth seemed loving on the
surface – the media even referred to them as the model couple – it was all planned by Elisa's father
without Gareth's agreement. Judging from your family background, I'm sure you can check if this is
true. You'll find out eventually."
Nicole was stunned to hear that. Is that true?
Before this, she only read the news about them. Though she knew some insider information, she didn't
know as much as Linda.
To her, this was a rather inconceivable notion.
She remained silent and pretended to be polite, allowing Linda to continue.
In fact, she was curious regardless if Linda was telling the truth or not, and Linda knew that.
With hatred in her eyes, Linda continued, "We all know each other. I've loved Gareth for a long time,
but he never returned the feelings. He's just feeling guilty toward me because of that incident. I thought
feelings could be nurtured, but… I know his attitude toward Elisa because I've been in touch with them
fairly often. I don't care if you believe me, but I'm determined to help you. I will never allow her to hurt
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmGareth again! I won't let her plan succeed!"
"What plan?" Nicole blurted out.
Initially, she didn't want to be influenced by Linda, so she didn't want to say anything.
However, Linda didn't answer, as though her reply depended on Nicole's decision.
Sarcasm was thick in Linda's eyes. I know you care a lot! Your calm facade must be fake! If you're
genuinely kind, that person wouldn't ask me to speak to you.
"I'm sure you heard the rumors online."
