NovelEnglishShe knew her place.
She was suitable for the position. But she was not worthy of it.
Elisa was not interested in having anything to do with Gareth any more.
Vincent took a glance at Elisa and started ruminating in his thoughts.
He had always thought that he was pretty charismatic with women. But what happened to him today...
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtVincent had forgotten that his skills had worked on those women because they had feelings for him. Swere obsessed with his looks, swith his body, and swith his money.
So he had never been serious with women. Many new women would cwith just a snap of his fingers.
“Don't... don't get upset. | know that you are unhappy right now. But I still think that you should tellwhat happened. That way, I'll be able to help solve the misunderstanding between you two.” “There is no need to solve our misunderstanding. Moreover, there has never been a misunderstanding between us.” He had told her that she was not worthy. What else is there to misunderstand? He was suddenly at a loss for words.
Vincent was considered a charismatic person. But... no matter how good one is, there is always someone better. And this someone better was the woman beside him.
He could not even cup with any frivolous joke in her presence.
There was an awkward silence in the air.
Vincent stopped talking and concentrated on his driving.
Elisa had no mood to talk to him either.
However, his phone rang not long after they drove past two streets.
It was Old Madam Wickam. Vincent turned on the loudspeaker and connected the call.
“Grandma.” The car was not Vincent's, so it did not connect to Vincent's phone Bluetooth.
Julia's voice was heard immediately. “Vince, have you picked Elisa up yet?” Elisa pursed her lips quietly.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmVincent laughed, “Yes, I've picked her up. Grandma, I'm on loudspeaker now. You can talk to her if you want to.” Then he glanced at Elisa and said, “Con, talk to Grandma.” Gareth was beside Julia when the call cthrough. He could hear their voices loud and clear.
Julia held her phone tightly and spoke anxiously, “Elisa, why did you leave so suddenly just now? Are you better now? Did that rascal bully you? Tell me, Elisa. | will help you teach him a lesson!” Julia sounded very concerned about Elisa. Elisa could hear it in her voice.
Elisa answered gently, “I'm fine, Grandma. You don’t have to worry about me.” “You have never acted this way. How can | not worry?” “I know...... Grandma. | acted too rashly just now,” Elisa spoke softly. But her face was clouded in an indiscernible emotion.
It was not appropriate for her to act that way in front of Old Madam Wickam earlier.
But she was so overwhelmed with her feelings that she lost control of her composure.
Julia quickly answered. “I know. | know everything, Elisa. Sometimes it's hard to control our feelings. But I'm worried about you.
Will you still cand visitwhen that rascal isn’t here? I'm a bit anxious now. Can you tellwhat happened?” Elisa's lip tightened into a thin line. Finally, she said, “It's nothing, Grandma. You don’t have to worry about me. I'll still go and visit you.” MMMWWLIIOIfIO&1 MMMWWLIIOIfIO&1 mmMwWLLIOfiflO& 1 MMMWWLIIOIfIO&1 MULL TO £2 E1061 mmMwWLIiIOfiflO&1
