Chapter 427 An Infuriating Headline
Elisa looked at him with confusion.
Will’s smile faded, and he looked at her solemnly. “Liz, I mean what I told you, but you never believe
me. You are truly the only woman in my heart.”
He looked at her with deep affection and devotion.
Elisa’s gaze remained calm. She slowly extricated her arm and looked at him. “Will Darcey, it doesn’t
matter what you say. I won’t believe a word. Even if what you said is true, I still won’t be with you. I will
never be with you in this lifetime.”
Will’s eyes flashed with hurt. He sighed helplessly and recovered his cheerful demeanor. Then, he
smiled and said, “It seems the time is not right yet. You should head home and have an early rest.”
He let her go without a fuss and seemed unaffected by her rejection. Elisa suddenly could not continue
with what she wanted to say.

experienced a failed marriage, and I don’t wish to waste any more energy on this matter. Furthermore,
we are not suited to each other and are not meant to be.”
After saying this, Elisa did not linger but got out of the car and left.
Will watched her walk away. His lips gradually curved into a smirk. He muttered, “Liz, you can’t escape
me.”
He was not in a hurry to leave but got out of his car and lit a cigarette.
Wispy cigarette smoke surrounded him. After a while, he looked up slowly and saw Elisa had turned on
her living room light. Since she had gotten home, he snuffed the cigarette and tossed it into the
trashcan before leaving.
…
The night grew deeper.
Gareth was already home for some time.
He was still in an irritable state as he was about to announce Linda and his engagement to the public.
Furthermore, he feared Twitter was already full of discussion about it.
He turned on his phone and logged into Twitter.
However, he found something else trending other than the news of his engagement. The atmosphere
of the room immediately turned tense.
He surged with fury as he read the trending headline.
Then, he clicked in and saw an infuriating post.
—Conifers: Mr. Wickam is about to get engaged with his ex-wife’s cousin, while Mr. Darcey
passionately pursues Mr. Wickam’s ex-wife. Did they plan this?
The posts following it were even worst.
—Slippy: Why do I keep feeling that Mr. Darcey is serious this time? I wonder if he manages to woo
Elisa.

—Will Darcey: When was I ever unserious about pursuing Liz?
—Mr. Darcey Is My Hubby: My goodness! Hubby, you respond to the post! Ahhh! You are really serious
about it!
—Will Darcey: If you can see how serious I am, please help me so that I can win Liz’s heart.
—Sweet Autumn: Ahhh! Elisa is so lucky! I support Elisa and Mr. Darcey! Ahhh!
Gareth could not stand reading another word and furiously threw his phone onto the coffee table.
He still had mixed feelings after agreeing to his family’s request today. Furthermore, he was under a lot
of pressure. He even thought about…
Heh… Everything seems pointless.
Gareth got up in a bad mood and went to the bathroom.
Even the cold shower could not calm him down. Thus, he left the bathroom, put on his clothes, and
rushed out of the house.
At this moment, Elisa finished her bath and planned to go to bed. Unexpectedly, someone banged on
the door.
