Chapter 492
Cole did not continue from thereon as he had clearly expressed his meaning.
If Gareth continued detesting Linda, it would only cause a greater hurdle for Will to
pursue Elisa.
After all, Gareth and Elisa had been husband and wife for several years and had lived
under the same roof.
If the two reconciled, Will would be devastated.
Cole could tell that Will was genuinely fond of Elisa, so he was trying to look out for
Will.
However, just as he thought Will would agree with his point, the latter uttered
indifferently, “From now on, you only have to glean information but don’t meddle with
my affair”
Cole was surprised.
“Mr.Darcey, you…”

In the past, he would follow Will’s instructions without asking much.
But this time, he was perplexed by Will’s indifferent response.
This was clearly an efficient shortcut.
Moreover, there was nothing Will wouldn’t do to go against Gareth all these years.
Cole’s suggestion this time was deliberately obstructing Gareth, so he reckoned Will
would be more than willing to accept the plan.
Will glanced at him and mumbled, “Elisa will be hurt if we do that.”
Cole was dumbfounded.
“Huh?”
Unlike his usual reticent manner, Will explained, “Elisa is determined to seek revenge
against Gareth.If you sow discord between them, it will only make Elisa even more
distressed.I don’t wish to see her get hurt”
Cole was speechless as he stared at Will in shock.
“Mr.Darcey, I didn’t know you liked Ms.Elisa this much.”

Will narrowed his eyes and did not respond.
Only then did Cole realize his comment was inappropriate, so he blurted in a fluster,
“Do you need me for anything else, Mr.Darcey?”
Perceiving the answer from Will’s silence, Cole then went out of the office, leaving Will
alone in the room.
The latter opened a photo album on his desk.
Seeing Elisa’s delicate face in the picture, he subconsciously placed his finger on her
face and stroked it gently.
The next day, Elisa took a day off from work to accompany Carle, but she didn’t stay
overnight this time.
Although Sheena implored her to stay so that Carle would recover faster, Elisa
refused to.
“I can’t be at his elbow twenty-four-seven.He only needs to know that I agree to be her
girlfriend for now.If I stay beside him every day, how am I going to end things with him
later on?”
Sheena and Rachel remained silent.

After hesitating for a moment, Sheena couldn’t help asking, “I don’t understand,
Elisa.Carle is such a decent and loyal man.He doesn’t even care about your past.Why
wouldn’t you accept his pursuit?”
Before Elisa could reply, Sheena continued, “I know you’re going to say that you don’t
want to impede on his life, but you should know that you’re the one he cares about the
most and wants to spend the rest of his life with.You think you’re impeding on his life,
but to him, the happiest thing on earth is to have you.Do you…really not have feelings
for Carle, even the least bit? Has he never moved you?”
Sheena was genuinely curious but not questioning Elisa.
They were friends, so she wouldn’t constrain Elisa in any way despite her love for
Carle.
Moreover, Elisa had sacrificed more than enough for Carle this time, so she couldn’t
manipulate Elisa and force her to do something that was not of her own will for the
rest of her life.
Sheena merely wanted to clear her doubt.
Gazing at Elisa, she repeated the question carefully, “Do you have feelings for Carle,
even if it’s just the slightest bit?”
