But Gareth didn't see it that way. He pressed his lips together and said, "Why not? Of course, it's necessary to defend your innocence. Elisa, I..." Elisa's intense expression took Gareth by surprise. It was a reaction he had never seen from her during their long acquaintance.

A faint trace of amusement glimmered in Elisa's eyes as she responded coldly, "You already sentencedto a capital offense back then, Gareth. Letask you, even if you investigate now and prove my innocence, what difference would it make? Do you think | need your attempts at redemption? Do you believe | want your money or to continue a loveless marriage with you?" A loveless marriage was even more terrifying than death itself! She had foolishly believed that she could touch Gareth's heart and spend their twilight years together, finding comfort in each other's presence as they aged. But what had it all cto? "I understand that you no longer care about it, but after everything we've been through, I'm compelled to seek the truth, Elisa. | cannot falsely accuse an innocent person, nor can | let a guilty person evade justice,” Gareth's expression turned serious and resolute, his eyes filled with icy determination.
Elisa found his determination cringe-worthy, "That's your business; it has nothing to do with me. Now that you have the antidote, control over Mr. Carrerra with the poison, and have obtained the Ganoderma Caligo, you can continue on your own path. At the stime, I'll choose a separate one." With these words, Elisa sidestepped Gareth and left.

Did he expect Elisa to boldly push open the door and stride into the adjacent private room? To his surprise, it was Nicole's private room! Uncertain of Elisa's intentions, Gareth decided to follow her nonetheless.
Elisa entered the room ahead of him.
As she pushed the door open, she immediately drew the attention of Nicole's two subordinates stationed by the entrance. They were about to attack Elisa when she swiftly stepped back, seized their wrists, and forcefully yanked, causing them to collide forcefully with each other.
The commotion instantly caught Nicole's attention.

She clapped her hands, and several men in black suits emerged from the restroom.
These were individuals Nicole had prearranged, ready for such a situation.
They had been strategically placed, one step ahead of the game.
Since the confrontation had escalated, there was no need for secrecy anymore.
However, one question lingered— Since Elisa chose to chere, how could she not have anticipated this? Undeterred, Elisa showed no fear as she took out her phone and played a video she had copied from Winslow.
Despite the absence of sound in the video, Nicole and Elisa stood close together, able to see the images on the phone's screen with absolute clarity.
