Chapter 1399 Anger
Elisa immediately grabbed a napkin and started to dab at the juice stains on Nicole's dress. "I'm
incredibly sorry, Ms. Tabor. I've ruined your clothes. I think you had better come with me to my room to
change. I have some clean clothes that you can wear. After you've changed, we can come back and
yell at Gareth!"
Gareth had done well.
Nicole was now convinced that Elisa was trying to get her to slip up. But if she refused, wouldn't that
also look suspicious?
She hesitated before agreeing, "I'm sorry for troubling you, Ms. Benett."
Elisa promptly brought Nicole to her room.

As for Gareth.
Eden had arrived where they were. Gareth stepped towards him.
Eden smirked at Gareth. "Why, look here. Does the great Mr. Wickam have something to say to me?"
"Stay away from her." Gareth glared at Eden. He didn't care who Eden was. Whoever he was, he was
nothing in Gareth's eyes.
Eden chortled as if he had heard the funniest joke. "I seem to remember the both of you being
divorced."
"And so what?" Gareth sneered at him.
No one could tell him what to do.
Eden did not take Gareth's warning to heart. He continued smirking. "There's a big difference between

being married and divorced. If you're still married, you'd be considered her husband. But now that
you're divorced, what are you?"
Eden had no problems showing his disregard for Gareth.
Gareth narrowed his eyes. Eden had touched a sore point.
Eden saw every flicker of expression in Gareth's eyes.
Before a fight could break out between them, Thomas appeared. As Gareth had ordered, Thomas had
brought him a deck of cards. Realizing Elisa and Nicole were absent, he asked, "Where did Ms. Benett
and Ms. Tabor go?"
Did Ms. Benett make her move?
If she did, Mr. Wickam wouldn't be standing here alone. Then he noticed Eden standing close by.
He immediately understood.
There were some complications. Elisa was dealing with Nicole, while Gareth was handling Eden.

"She left with the other girl. They probably went back to her room. Mr. May, was it? Could you pass a
message to Elisa for me? Let her know I'm ready."
Eden grinned. He appeared gentle and friendly.
But Thomas remembered Elisa's warning. He also recalled that he had not told Eden his last name.
It's safe to say Eden has probably looked into them.
"It's time for your medicine, Mr. Wickam," Thomas remembered what Elisa had said about Eden's
reason for being here and wanted to get rid of him.
But he wasn't dumb, and Eden wasn't someone he could order around.
It wasn't time for them to confront Eden yet.
However, Gareth wasn't someone to back down from a fight.
Thomas knew Gareth better than anyone. If he couldn't persuade Gareth, Thomas had no choice but to
use Elisa's name. "Think about Ms. Benett, Mr. Wickam. If she manages to get the truth out of Nicole,
wouldn't Nicole become furious with the humiliation?" He said in a low voice.
