Chapter 1887 We Are a TeamGareth pulled Elisa's hand to drag her away. He refused to let her suffer mistreatment.
However, Elisa stood still and stared at Anna.
By now, Anna had gotten over the initial shock and looked at Elisa suspiciously. She asked, "Are you
sure? You're not playing with me, right?"
Gareth wanted to speak, but Elisa beat him to it. "I'm sure about it. Can he register now?"
Anna nodded proudly. "Of course."
She glanced firmly at the person handling the registration.
As expected, the person did not dare to disobey and added Gareth's name immediately.
Elisa breathed a sigh of relief when she saw Gareth's name on the list.
She looked away and found Anna watching her.
Still, she was not afraid and met her gaze squarely.
Anna mouthed a few words inaudibly. "I'll be waiting for you."
She gave Elisa another firm glance and left.
The crowd of onlookers dispersed after Anna left. However, a little girl approached Elisa tentatively.
Elisa remembered her. She stood at the side all this while and looked at Elisa worriedly.
Despite her young age, she scrunched her face like a worried old lady.
Elisa stooped down to her level and smiled as she patted the girl's head.
"What's wrong? Is there something you want to tell me?"
The little girl gulped and hesitated before whispering, "Miss, you must be careful during the warriors'
tournament."
Elisa's gaze darkened slightly. The little girl ran away before Elisa could say anything.
Elisa stood up and watched the little girl run away. She considered the matter and fell into deep
thoughts, completely ignoring Gareth, who was standing beside her.
Gareth snorted with dissatisfaction, causing Elisa to emerge from her thoughts and stare at him.
"Even a kid could see it was a ploy. How could you agree to it so easily?"
Gareth was fuming. He was angry that Elisa agreed to Anna's condition despite knowing it was a trap.
Furthermore, he was furious that she ignored him. Gareth looked so childish that Elisa could not help but laugh.
However, her laughter angered him even more.
He left the village chief's house without another word.
Still, he deliberately slowed down when he noticed Elisa had not followed him.
Elisa knew he was waiting for her and caught up with him.
She looked at him and fluttered her lashes innocently. "All right, Mr. Wickam. Are you angry with me?"
Gareth squinted and replied coldly, "Why would I dare to be angry with you? We… are a team. How
could you decide without discussing it with me? Don't you respect my opinion?"
novelbinElisa was stunned. She knew she had angered Gareth.
Thus, she stopped teasing him and answered solemnly, "I know I was wrong for not discussing the
matter with you, but I have a good reason. It was necessary for our goal. Furthermore, I'm perfectly
able to decide for myself."
Gareth was still furious after hearing that.
He was angry that Elisa agreed to Anna's unreasonable request despite being able to reject it.
Elisa understood what he was angry about. However…
Elisa asked, "Gareth, what kind of person do you think I am?"
Gareth looked at her and was confused by her question.
"Why do you ask?"
Elisa smiled.
