Chapter 5 Went to the Wrong Room?
- Gareth snorted coldly. "Elisa, what makes you think Grandma will always be on your side?"
- "As I thought. You suspect I tattled on you." Elisa continued to smirk and said, "It doesn't matter whether I tattled you. Isn't divorce more important to you? Mr. Wickam, can you confirm when you want to register our divorce?"
- Gareth glanced at her sharply. "Are you planning to send someone to inform Grandma when we divorce?"
- "What the heck are you thinking?" Elisa was speechless and turned impatient. "If you keep being afraid, we will never be able to divorce. So, Mr. Wickam, are you free tomorrow?"
- Gareth replied coldly, "I've already told you. My assistant will contact you when I am free! Get out of my car!"
- Elisa sneered in anger. "You think I want to be here? Gareth, you will pay for your arrogance one day!"
- After saying that, she did not spare him another glance and got out of the car. Seeing Gareth being impatient to leave, she scoffed and deliberately neglected to close the door. Then, she walked away leisurely and said, "I'm taking my leave first, Mr. Wickam."
- Gareth gritted his teeth. "Elisa!"
- Elisa smirked and did not bother to look back as she made a turn and left on a pedestrian path.
- Two hours later, Gareth arrived at his company.
- Suddenly, his phone rang. He answered it immediately.
- "Boss, she has left the hill, and I have followed her to her home. Nothing happened on the way, and she did not meet anyone."
- Gareth's expression darkened instantly. His eyes flashed with hatred for Elisa.
- His anger surged as he recalled how she behaved as if she wanted to have nothing to do with him.
- "You don't have to follow her anymore."
- The person on the other end was stunned. "Yes, sir."
- Then, Gareth hung up furiously. He did not wish to hear about Elisa anymore. It would only make him even more annoyed.
- Elisa headed straight to the bathroom after arriving home. She felt much better after a shower.
- Although she had also lived alone in the past, it was not as relaxing as she felt now. Previously, she was always thinking about Gareth, but now, she was free to develop her own career. At the same time, she could not help but feel a little depressed as she thought of the past. Why did I waste so much energy on that trash?
- As the night deepened, Elisa slept soundly despite being a light sleeper.
- On the other hand, Gareth tossed and turned in his bed.
- He had headed straight to the company after leaving Wickam Manor and worked for a while before deciding to rest. Unfortunately, he could not. As soon as he lay down, memories of Elisa's mocking smile appeared in his mind.
- Gareth opened his eyes abruptly. His expression was cold and stern.
- Then, he got up and ordered his assistant to gather people for an all-night video conference to arrange work.
- He did not sleep the whole night and looked terrible.
- Everyone saw how terrifying Gareth appeared on the screen and kept quiet. No one dared to even yawn.
- They all wondered who had dared to annoy him.
- …
- Elisa was at home reviewing some documents when she received a call from Charli. Through the call, she knew that Will wanted to see her.
- When she arrived at the agreed-upon restaurant, Elisa immediately spotted a handsome man sitting at the table, casually playing a mobile game.
- He wore a tailored high-end suit and exuded a deep sense of nobility. His eyes seemed gentle, and many did not know the ruthlessness hidden beneath those eyes.
- Noises of the mobile game sounded from his phone from time to time, clashing with his professional appearance.
- Will looked up when he heard footsteps.
- He saw a tall and slender woman with her long and straight brown hair tied in a bun and fringes curled slightly at the side of her head. She wore a light blue corseted dress, showing her alluring figure.
- She was slim with the appropriate amount of softness on the right part of her body.
- Furthermore, she had beautiful facial features, especially her almond-shaped eyes. They gleamed like crystals and exuded a sense of professional capability. One could not help but be mesmerized by them.
- However, Will was astonished to see that she was Elisa. He logged out of his game and smiled, "Mrs. Wickam, have you gone to the wrong room?"
