Chapter 1916 ReunionWasn't everything just fine a moment ago? Why is she suddenly distancing herself from me again now?
A woman's mind is truly like the weather in June, changing at a moment's notice. Even strong women
are no exception.
The car continued to move slowly until it entered Wickam Manor.
Gareth wanted to get out of the car first to open the door for Elisa, but a tender hand stopped him.
Gareth lowered his head, looking at the fair hand, then shifted his eyes upward to look at Elisa.
“Don't get out of the car just yet. I'll go to in first and fetch you a piece of clothing.”
Gareth wanted to refuse, but Elisa had already gotten out of the car.
Watching her retreating figure, Gareth suddenly relaxed completely, leaning back.
A feeling as if he had found reliable support surged within him.
Gareth found himself amused by his thought. Looking at the spot on his hand where Elisa had just
touched, he chuckled softly.
Up front, the driver wished he could bury his head under the steering wheel. Did I just witness the
sweet daily life of my boss and her husband?
Before long, Elisa returned, carrying a woolen coat in her hands. It was worth mentioning that the color was also black.
Seeing that, Gareth smiled more widely.
However, before he could say anything, Julia's voice came from the door.
“This little rascal. Isn't a man supposed to be brave? Why is he afraid of catching a cold and hiding in
the car?” Julia muttered continuously, criticizing Gareth.
But the moment Gareth truly stood before her, alive and unscathed, her tears just wouldn't stop flowing
down her cheeks.
“Grandma, I'm back,” Gareth said with a roguish smile, spreading his arms wide.
Julia walked over unsteadily, her gaze fixed intensely on Gareth.
It appeared like she was afraid that it was all just a dream she was having.
Ever since Gareth and Elisa disappeared, she had been unable to sleep night after night.
She constantly dreamed of a young Gareth grasping her hand and asking, “Grandma, why haven't you
come to pick me up yet?”
When she woke up, there were always tears in the corners of her eyes.
Julia looked at Gareth, landing a punch on his chest. Despite the old lady's frail health, her punch was still quite forceful, especially since Elisa had been
taking great care of her.
Her health had been improving steadily. Naturally, her strength also improved.
Gareth winced in pain, clutching his chest.
Elisa quickly stepped forward to intervene. “Grandma, he's still injured.”
It was then that Julia finally returned to her senses.
At that moment, the elegant old lady, who had lived a life of wealth and privilege for most of her years,
couldn't help but burst into tears.
Gareth naturally felt his heart aching too. He reined in his usual demeanor and said earnestly, “Don't
worry, Grandma. I've returned safe and sound, right? I've even brought Elisa back with me. You should
be happy.”
Elisa also went over and hugged Julia, whispering softly, “It's okay, Grandma. We're back now.”
Julia wiped her tears, nodding rigorously. “Good. It's good that you're back. Everything is fine now that
you're back.”

in this life. All I hope for is that you live well. That's all I wish for.”
After saying that, Julia turned to Gareth, her tone full of pride as she spoke. “You little rascal. You didright this time. If you don't save your own wife, are you even a man?”
Upon hearing that, Elisa felt somewhat embarrassed.
Gareth looked at Elisa leisurely and composedly.
