Chapter 1967 A Little DisappointedIf a person seeking help were to block his path, he might just put an end to their pleas himself.
So, just based on these, it made Elisa believe that Gareth would meddle in other people's affairs...
It was really difficult.
“Of course.” Gareth spoke, his gaze fixed on Elisa's side profile. “I agreed to take her with me because
she volunteered to impersonate Hannah.”
Realization dawned on Elisa.
So, he did all that because of me then?
Gareth looked at Elisa, wanting to speak but hesitating.
In the end, he asked, “Are you still unhappy now?”
Elisa shook her head, her expression serious as she said, “I've never been upset because you wanted
to take her away. I just—” Elisa didn't finish her sentence, leaving her thought that Kaylee was quite
strange unspoken.
Because it was merely a speculation, she didn't want to cause harm with unfounded accusations.
And so, changing the subject, Elisa said, “I just don't like being interrogated and doubted. If you trust
me, then don't question me.” Gareth knew she was talking about the things that happened before they set off. He realized he had
been too impatient.
“I've believed in you from the very beginning. We've weathered so many storms together, how could I
possibly not trust you?”
Elisa nodded, and the misunderstanding between the two was finally resolved.
Sometimes, sitting down quietly and having a conversation could solve many problems.
Often, people carry themselves with a temper coupled with pride and arrogance.
So, things would become complicated.
Sitting down and having a calm conversation like this would save a lot of trouble.
Gareth just felt a bit disappointed.
He was disappointed that jealousy was not one of the reasons Elisa was upset.
That's okay... there will be a change in the future.
Elisa didn't know that Gareth was currently pondering on how to make her jealous in the future. If she
knew, she probably wouldn't have forgiven him so quickly.
After resolving the issue, the two didn't continue their stroll but instead chose to return home. When Elisa woke up early the next day, a surprise was waiting for her.
When the door was knocked, Elisa and Gareth were having breakfast.
As usual, Gareth prepared the breakfast, but what was different this time was that Elisa had prepared
some medicinal diet.
That was something that was prepared for Gareth every day when the two of them were stranded in
the small fishing village. The medicinal diet was for the maintenance of his health.
His wounds hadn't fully healed, and they were further aggravated by the incident in the small fishing
village.
Just as Elisa was about to finish her meal and was watching Gareth take his medicinal meal, the
doorbell rang.
Without thinking, Gareth got up to open the door, but Elisa held his hand and gestured for him to sit
down.
Immediately after, she went to open the door.
Gareth stared at the spot where their skin had just touched in a daze.
novelbinThe moment Elisa opened the door and saw the person on the other side, they both froze.
One didn't expect that it would be Elisa who opened the door, while the other didn't expect that the
visitor would be Kaylee. Kaylee had changed out of her ethnic wear and slipped into a designer winter outfit. It wasn't the latest
trending style but a design from a few years back.
Elisa had sharp eyes. The clothes she's wearing are probably mine. It must be the clothes I left behind
in the house. She sure helped herself to my clothes.
When Kaylee saw Elisa, the sweet smile that had been plastered on her face gradually faded, freezing
at the corners of her mouth.
She simply blurted out, “Elisa.”
With that, she didn't wait for Elisa's response and started to squeeze her way into the house.
When leaving, she even bumped into Elisa. It was unclear whether the bump was intentional or not.
Despite her skinny figure, it hurt when she bumped into Elisa.
