Chapter 1297CHAPTER 1297 WHAT A PRACTICAL PERSON
"Are you simply enjoying the fun longer, or are you too afraid to meet me in person, so you're making
up all these acts?" Elisa let out a chortle as she mocked her, "Not meeting me is equivalent to being
shameless, don't you think?"
novelbin"You..." The caller turned hasty, but they kept their composure and snickered, "Hah..you see, I want to
test if you're a worthy opponent. If you can stay alive, I might allow you to meet me. I hope you won't
disappoint the expectations I have for you."
Elisa's eyes twitched. "I don't care about meeting your expectations. However, I'm a little curious about
the deep-seated hatred you have for me. Especially one where you'd resort to moving countries to kill
me."
Elisa had been trying to find out why but had been too busy recently. She didn't know who the caller
was, nor was she aware of her connections with this person.
"You don't have to waste your effort as you'll never figure it out, and you don't have to know. You only
need to know one thing." After a slight pause, the dainty voice chuckled, "Once I lose interest in the
game, your end will come."
"Also, don't try to track me down now. Anything you find out will be useless. I advise you to save your
effort and spend this time talking to me."
"I have nothing to say to you," Elisa muttered with an indifferent response. "You..." The caller laughed forcefully and replied, "What a practical person."
Elisa stared at Gareth's computer and put down the phone immediately without saying a word.
Gareth stopped tracking when the phone call ended.
As expected, the caller had robust protection. They came prepared with a plan in mind, so it would be
difficult to hack into their system.
After the call ended, the other party didn't call again.
Gareth shifted his gaze to look at her. "A mere argument?"
He was navigating through the system on the computer the whole time, and Elisa wore her earphones,
so he couldn't hear anything the caller said. He could only decipher what happened from the words that
emerged from Elisa's mouth.
Elisa froze slightly. "It seems to be so on the surface."
Gareth pressed his lips together in a hard line. His spiritless eyes betrayed no hint of emotions.
Elisa laid her handphone down and slowly looked at the man. "Once this matter is settled, you should
stay away from me. I'm afraid your presence around me would inevitably bring harm to grandma."
Gareth sneered at her comment. "Grandma doesn't know anything, but do you think grandma would
accept it if you suddenly become out of reach?" Elisa's brow furrowed in a tight knot, but she kept quiet.
A deathly silence surrounded the study room.
Both of them weren't saying anything.
After a pause, Gareth looked calmly at her. "You can't live alone from now on."
Elisa scowled in response. She wanted to refute him, but Gareth continued with a somber tone, "I won't
leave you to fend for yourself just for grandma's sake. Before grandma recovers, I won't leave."
Elisa clenched her jaws and asserted, "I can protect myself."
Gareth stared at her calmly. "How can you guarantee that?"
He knew how vicious the other party was.
Moreover, he knew that Elisa wouldn't let him help if he did not express his sincere wish to help her.
Elisa pursed her lips and didn't say a word more.
