Chapter 349 Why Does He Reject Them?
In the past, he would call her Mrs. Wickam, but now, he could not. The two of them had divorced, so he
did not dare to take that risk.
However, he also wished to get on Elisa’s good side, so he called her ‘Iris’.
Gareth furrowed his brow.
That name made him annoyed and angry. It also filled him with frustration.
Elisa gave a nod and smiled. “Good evening, Mr. Lowell.”
Mr. Lowell’s expression stiffened a little. It seems I have addressed her wrongly… I should have called
her by her surname. But… I could only remember that Elisa was called Iris at the time. I couldn’t
remember her surname.
He felt a sense of panic upon seeing Gareth’s expression. But he calmed himself and turned to Gareth
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtwith a laugh. “Mr. Wickam, what brings you to this banquet? It’s rare for you to come to Southdale, so I
must show you my hospitality. Will you be free tomorrow? Please let me bring you around.”
“If it is to discuss a business venture, next time.”
After saying that, Gareth did not want to continue chatting with him and left straight away.
All Elisa could do was smile and nod at Mr. Lowell before Gareth dragged her away.
Elisa took a deep breath. I must not lose my temper. I can’t stoop as low as this uncivilized brute!
One day, I will trample him under my feet and force him to apologize!
Elisa continued to focus ahead and pretended that Gareth was not beside her.
She noticed something unusual.
Before their divorce, she always looked forward to banquets even though they were only pretending to
be a loving couple. Her anticipation was not due to the chance to dress up beautifully. In actuality, it was
because she could finally attend something with him.
She could finally stay close by his side and hold his arm…
Furthermore, Gareth would always behave lovingly with her at the banquet. Although she knew it was
fake, she could not help but feel delighted and excited.
But now, even though Gareth stood beside her as before, enveloping her with his powerful aura, all she
wanted was to leave. She wished she could kick him away.
Elisa could not resist smiling.
Does this mean I have completely let go of him? Does this mean I no longer feel sad as before?
She used to have trouble sleeping, had no appetite, and was depressed. She was sick of living that way.
Gareth glanced sideways and was surprised to see a genuine smile on her face.
His expression froze.
What… What is she thinking?
Does it mean she is happy to stay by my side?
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmGareth smirked mockingly and continued to lead her through the crowd.
Due to his special status, many people were eager to approach and greet him. They feared missing out.
Elisa felt there was something wrong with Gareth today.
Why doesn’t he send those people away?
Elisa remembered how selective Gareth was about the person he talked to. If he was not interested, he
would not even give the person a chance to speak.
What is he doing now? Why does it seem like he is willing to humor everyone?
It doesn’t matter what they say. He stays and chats with them.
What the heck?
Is something wrong with him?
Elisa looked at Gareth as if he had gone crazy, causing his expression to darken instantly.
The moment they were alone again, Elisa looked at him with annoyance. “Mr. Wickam, I know you’re
tough, but I’m wearing a pair of twelve centimeters high heels! Can I rest for a while?”
