Chapter 1812 Lunch Delivery
Gareth waited beside Elisa bitterly and stared fixedly at her but was completely ignored.
On the other end, Bella sneezed non-stop. Elisa asked if she caught a cold. Bella rubbed her nose and
mumbled, "No. I feel like someone is cursing me behind my back."
Elisa chuckled and glanced at Gareth.
The two ladies continued chatting until Bella was home safely. She only felt relieved after entering her
room. Then, they talked for a while before hanging up.
Bella patted her chest, having a bad hunch…
The next day, Elisa woke up early for work. Gareth insisted on sending her to the office. Elisa couldn't
stop him, so she went along with him.

When they arrived at the office, Gareth was reluctant to let Elisa go. Elisa smiled and got out of the car
unhesitantly.
Seeing Elisa waving at him with a proud look, Gareth wore a rueful smile. He wondered if he should be
delighted because their relationship had eased or to be upset because he merely became Elisa's driver
and didn't achieve his motive.
Meanwhile, the first thing Elisa did was to find Bella to confirm yesterday's call wasn't about something
important.
After hanging up last night, Elisa couldn't fall asleep and kept thinking about it. She knew Bella wouldn't
call her for no reason. She was considerate and wouldn't disturb others late at night if it wasn't
something urgent. Nonetheless, Bella pondered upon it and decided not to tell Elisa.

"Nothing. I was just too excited after completing the proposal. Sorry about that. I hope I didn't disturb
you."
Elisa shook her head.
Bella heaved a sigh of relief. "Glad to know. By the way, please review the proposal so that I can make
amendments if needed."
Elisa stared at Bella, who appeared relaxed, for quite a while to confirm she wasn't telling a lie. Then,
she nodded and patted Bella's shoulder. "Okay. Do tell me if there's anything."
Bella patted Elisa's shoulder with a smile, assuring her that she was fine. As Elisa walked away, she
suddenly remembered something and turned to say to Bella, "Let's have lunch together today."
Bella smiled and hummed in response.
It was a busy morning. When Elisa checked the time again, it was already forty minutes past eleven in
the morning. Remembering she had asked Bella for lunch, she opened the food delivery app to place

an order.
Suddenly, there was an incoming call from Gareth. Startled, Elisa picked up the call to hear Gareth's
pitiful voice.
"Elisa, I'm here to send you lunch. The security guard wouldn't allow me to enter because I didn't make
an appointment. Please help me talk to him…"
Elisa was thunderstruck when she heard the usually imposing Gareth speak in a pitiful tone.
Not only that, he said this in public.
Elisa could already imagine the gossipy receptionists discussing Gareth's identity in their chat groups.
Resigned, Elisa instructed the security guard to let Gareth in.
Three minutes later, her secretary brought Gareth in. Elisa was rendered speechless, seeing him
carrying a handful of bags.
