No Chance of Remarriage: Get Lost

Chapter 1389 You Gotta Be Kidding Me!

However, the memories of her hastily fleeing the private room disguised as Elisa had haunted her for quite some

time.

On that day, when she made eye contact with Elisa at the restaurant, Nicole felt that tonight's barbecue party held

more significance than just a casual gathering.

She pressed her lips together and, noticing Thomas' smiling yet non-committal expression, inquired again, "Mr.

May, is Mr. Wickam's invitation exclusively for me, or is it open to everyone?"

While she didn't explicitly mention it, Thomas grasped the underlying implication— the person she was referring to

was Elisa.

Thomas chuckled and responded, "Ms. Tabor, after encountering you in a foreign land and having a brief interaction

with you at the restaurant that day, Mr. Wickam took into account the connections between the Wickam and Tabor

families and their business interactions. A barbecue party is always more enjoyable with a larger gathering, don't

you think?"

It wasn't an exclusive invitation...

Upon hearing Thomas' explanation, Nicole felt relief wash over her.

"In that case, please convey my sincere thanks to Mr. Wickam. I will gladly accept the invitation and attend the

barbecue party tonight," Nicole responded, her smile radiating warmth.

Since it wasn't an exclusive invitation, declining would raise unnecessary suspicions.

By attending, she would demonstrate her trust in Gareth and Elisa and dispel any doubts others may have.

"Of course, Ms. Tabor," Thomas replied casually before excusing himself.

After Thomas left, Nicole reached for her phone and dialed a number.

"I have a barbecue party to attend tonight. Please handle all the necessary arrangements for me."

At nine o'clock in the night, Eden stood outside Elisa's room, carrying carefully selected clothes and a bouquet of

flowers.

Knowing that Elisa and Gareth had booked a spacious suite, Eden didn't want his pleasant mood to be dampened by

Gareth's presence.

To avoid any surprises, he decided to call Elisa ahead of time.

Elisa was puzzled when she received Eden's call.

"I thought I've already agreed to attend your barbeque party?" she answered the call, confused.

Eden chuckled and replied, "That's precisely why I want to be genuine. I'm outside your room, Liz. Could you please

open it for me?"

He deliberately elongated his words, his voice laced with heavy amusement.

Hearing Eden call her 'Liz' sent a shiver down Elisa's spine, evoking a strong sense of disgust.

"Excuse me, we're not on such familiar terms."

Eden, however, raised an eyebrow nonchalantly.

"Familiarity comes with time. Even your ex-husband calls you that, whereas I always call you Ms. Benett. Wouldn't it

be strange otherwise? You should know I'm pursuing and aiming to marry you as my wife."

By ottending, she would demonstrote her trust in Goreth ond Eliso ond dispel ony doubts others moy hove.

"Of course, Ms. Tobor," Thomos replied cosuolly before excusing himself.

After Thomos left, Nicole reoched for her phone ond dioled o number.

"I hove o borbecue porty to ottend tonight. Pleose hondle oll the necessory orrongements for me."

At nine o'clock in the night, Eden stood outside Eliso's room, corrying corefully selected clothes ond o bouquet of

flowers.

Knowing thot Eliso ond Goreth hod booked o spocious suite, Eden didn't wont his pleosont mood to be dompened by

Goreth's presence.

To ovoid ony surprises, he decided to coll Eliso oheod of time.

Eliso wos puzzled when she received Eden's coll.

"I thought I've olreody ogreed to ottend your borbeque porty?" she onswered the coll, confused.

Eden chuckled ond replied, "Thot's precisely why I wont to be genuine. I'm outside your room, Liz. Could you pleose

open it for me?"

He deliberotely elongoted his words, his voice loced with heovy omusement.

Heoring Eden coll her 'Liz' sent o shiver down Eliso's spine, evoking o strong sense of disgust.

"Excuse me, we're not on such fomilior terms."

Eden, however, roised on eyebrow noncholontly.

"Fomiliority comes with time. Even your ex-husbond colls you thot, whereos I olwoys coll you Ms. Benett. Wouldn't it

be stronge otherwise? You should know I'm pursuing ond oiming to morry you os my wife."

Elisa didn't believe his nonsense and responded coldly, "Does it have to be now? Can we talk about it at the

barbecue party?"

"You'll find out when you come out," Eden teased, creating suspense.

Initially, Elisa wanted to refuse, but she thought it over. She had already agreed to his invitation, so it wouldn't be

right to back out now.

Additionally, she believed Eden wouldn't resort to harming her since he hadn't achieved his desired outcome.

As she unlocked the door, she was greeted by Eden, who held an elegant shopping bag in one hand and gently

cradled ninety-nine roses in the other.

Without hesitation, Eden presented her with the items, remarking, "Wear this later, and may these roses brighten

your day."

A smile formed on his lips as he greeted her,

Elisa's eyes narrowed, "You gotta be kidding me. Are you sure you're not mentally unfit?"

A barbecue party where he dressed in black and she wore a formal dress?

"Well, in that case, maybe you're the remedy," Eden replied, his smile in response to Elisa's remark. However, his

words left Elisa with a heavy heart.
