Chapter 430 It Was Not Within Her Power
Gareth looked at her coldly. “I don’t want to force you to a dead end, but if you keep disregarding your
chances, don’t blame me for what I’m about to do!”
Elisa sneered mockingly. “Whatever.”
She knew Gareth would always side with Linda, and Linda would use Gareth’s authority against Elisa
in the future. Thus, it was no different from Gareth acting against her.
However, Elisa did not care anymore.
She did not wish to be bothered by him. At the same time, the mockery in her gaze became even more
obvious.
Faced with her mocking glare, Gareth suddenly lost the courage to remain here. He had spoken so
many cruel words to her that he had nothing to say anymore.
Thus, he stormed out of the house without another glance at her.

Elisa looked at the closed door and felt a brief sense of hesitation. What had happened just now felt
like a nightmare and a hallucination.
She leaned against the wall and felt on the verge of collapse.
Then, she took a deep breath. It felt like the tiredness she had washed away during her bath returned
again. She climbed onto the bed weakly and lay down.
Elisa felt confused that night.
It was not because she could not let go of Gareth or was sad about his engagement. She just felt that
life was tedious and wondered when he would finally stop bothering her.
She was not sure whether Gareth would act against her. However, she had considered this carefully. If
Gareth dared to harm her, she would not hold back.
Worst come to worst, she would drag him down with her.
Soon, it was time for the meeting that was held once every three days.

The purpose of this meeting was to determine who would attend the collaboration meeting with Will.
Elisa went in and sat quietly in her seat. She planned not to take part in this discussion and let the
others say whatever they wanted.
The shareholders were split into three sides. One of them took the middle ground while the other two
kept arguing with each other.
In the end, everyone looked at Elisa.
Elisa looked at them calmly and asked, “Why are you all looking at me?”
Norman felt irritated. It’s because you play a key role in this problem. Otherwise, why would we want to
look at you?
After a brief pause, Norman said, “Elisa, you know this project involves the significant interest of the
company. Thus, we need someone with more experience to handle it. Do you have any objections?”
“No,” Elisa answered straight away. But her confident demeanor prompted James and Jessie to smile.

Although she did not object, it did not mean she was backing down. Her confidence showed that Will
would not proceed with the project without her.
Furthermore, everyone knew what Will had done recently.
He appeared reserved, but he liked Elisa. Furthermore, Elisa was skilled. After all, she prepared the
proposal. Her capabilities reminded everyone of her father. There was nothing that she could not do.
Norman had a bad feeling about this. But since Elisa agreed readily, he had nothing else to say.
Thus, he adjusted his emotions and smiled at Elisa. “I’m glad you understand. Marisa Morgan shall
bring you to meet with Mr. Darcey. She will lead the team while you assist her in persuading Mr.
Darcey. This is part of your duty.”
In other words, he was forcing the responsibility for the success of the project on her.
If Elisa failed, it meant she was incapable.
Those who supported Elisa frowned and understood what Norman was implying.
On the other hand, Elisa gave a vague smile and nodded. “Sure, but it is not up to me whether the
project would succeed. I believe my abilities are nothing compared to Ms. Morgan.”
James and Jessie smiled upon hearing her.
