Chapter 1965 Apologize
After a while, he finally spoke, “I'll explain the situation between Kaylee and me in detail when we get
back. The story is a bit complicated.”
Elisa remained silent, staring at him with an unconcerned expression.
He took a deep breath, mentally preparing himself before saying, “She has been kind to both of us, so
could you perhaps not reject her?”
Elisa couldn't help but laugh in exasperation. She retorted, “You think I'm rejecting her? What did she
just say?”
The air around them seemed to freeze due to their argument.
Elisa appeared somewhat displeased.
“She said she felt guilty for coming between us and that you said if she were to come back with us, you
would drive me away...” At that point, Gareth appeared somewhat aggrieved and hurt. Then, he asked,
“Is that true?”

Elisa met his gaze in a neither supercilious nor obsequious demeanor. “Do you think I'm that kind of
person?”
Gareth shook his head. “I know you're not that kind of person, but could you possibly help take care of
her in the future—”
Before Gareth could finish speaking, Elisa directly interrupted him, “She saved my life, and I am deeply
grateful. But what I, Elisa, detest the most is anyone who uses favors or anything else as leverage.
Gareth, you really don't understand me.”
After speaking, Elisa turned around and got back into the car.
Elisa and Rachel shared a car, while Vincent, Gareth, and Kaylee occupied the other car.
During that period, Gareth tried to strike up a conversation, but Elisa completely ignored him.
Kaylee, on the other hand, was constantly apologizing and being overly attentive.
When they reached the service area, she even took the initiative to get water for Gareth and such.
It was just a pity that Gareth wasn't in the mood to drink any water.

Kaylee could sense Gareth's attitude toward her had become more distant and polite.
Their relationship, which was never close to begin with, was now becoming more distant.
Is it because of Elisa? Kaylee's gaze was gloomy.
Throughout the journey, everyone remained mostly silent, making the atmosphere somewhat awkward.
By the time they arrived, it was already midnight.
During the car ride, Gareth arranged accommodations for Kaylee.
She was arranged to stay in one of the properties he owned, and he assigned Thomas to send her.
As she was leaving, Kaylee seemed rather reluctant, constantly turning around to look at Gareth.
However, she also knew she had no other choice.
She clenched her teeth. I'll replace Elisa one day!
Gareth couldn't care about all of that because he had to apologize sincerely to Elisa.
Gareth walked home, assuming his fingerprints had already been erased.
He tried nervously, and to his surprise, the door actually opened.

With a faint smile, Gareth finally let out a sigh of relief.
The room was quiet, and the lights were off when he stepped inside.
Only the light in Elisa's room was still on.
So, Gareth took a deep breath and strode forward.
Elisa was taking a bath when there was a gentle knock on the door.
Gareth thought she was still angry. He originally planned to go straight in. When he placed his hand on
the door handle, he realized the door was not closed.
Therefore, he tentatively stepped inside.
Just then, Elisa exited the bathroom wrapped in a bath towel.
They faced each other, staring at one another.
Gareth opened his mouth in surprise.
Elisa grabbed the pillow next to her and threw it, quickly retreating back to the bathroom while cursing,
“You pervert!”
The sound of Elisa putting on her clothes came from the bathroom, causing Gareth's imagination to run
wild.
It was only then that Gareth realized his mistake and quickly apologized, “I-I didn't do this on purpose.”
