Chapter 1417 Insomnia
Henry looked down after his rant and dared not meet Mr. North's gaze.
Mr. North sneered, "I don't understand why Joseph chose you as his confidant. It doesn't matter
whether you believe it or what your opinion is. What can you do even if you discovered their
relationship?"
His eyes were filled with disdain for Henry.
If their boss had not assigned Joseph to a different mission overseas, Mr. North would never want to
bring someone like Henry with him on a mission.
Henry fell silent.
But he had already developed a firm prejudice toward Elisa.
…
Meanwhile, Elisa finished brewing medicine in the hotel suite and watched the four men finish it.
Seeing their anxious expressions, she explained, "The four of you had taken medicines you shouldn't

have. Therefore, your conditions are worse than Terry's. I will prescribe medicine for you to be taken for
some time. You will stay in this hotel and rest for a few days. Then…"
Terry and the others interrupted her anxiously before she could finish speaking. "Ms. Benett, are you
not going to let us work for you?"
Elisa was stunned for a moment.
Still, she understood what they were getting at. They were afraid that their master would find them. At
least working for Elisa and Gareth would give them some protection.
Elisa shook her head. "That has never been my intention. I have seen your sincerity and am willing to
be your friend. It's time for you to rest. This is the most important part of your recovery."
Then, she turned to Thomas and instructed, "Thomas, can you order some meals for them? After they
have eaten, make sure they rest. I'm heading to the other room."
No one had any objection to Elisa's instruction.
After that, Gareth and Elisa entered the opposite room.

Gareth still thought about what was left unspoken just now.
This time, he did not seek Elisa's opinion or her affirmation. Instead, he said, "I've asked Thomas to
arrange a private flight tomorrow. You will take Ganoderma Caligo with you and return first."
He arranged everything without consulting her.
Although Elisa knew Gareth wanted her to be safe, she refused to abandon him at such a critical
moment. She would not be a coward.
Elisa frowned and appeared stern. "I'm not leaving. I haven't discovered Eden's purpose or attended
the casino's gathering. Also, there's the matter with Nicole…"
Although Nicole refused to admit to anything, Elisa believed her instinct was right.
Furthermore, Nicole would be burning with hatred for Elisa after what happened today. Nicole would
surely show up if the casino planned something for the gathering.
Gareth had a cold and stern expression. He was also firm in his stance. "I will deal with those things.
Elisa, why must you be so stubborn?"

He frowned and appeared impatient.
Although Gareth was not intimidated by those people, he knew they were disadvantaged in a foreign
land.
Meanwhile, Elisa did not want to argue with him during such a critical period.
She denied what he said. "Gareth, that's not being stubborn. Everyone is different, and I know what I
should do as I have a detailed plan."
Then, she turned her back on Gareth and entered her room before he could say anything.
Neither of them could sleep that night.
Likewise, Eden was also unable to fall asleep.
He had hidden his spies close to Gareth and Elisa. They reported to him that Mr. Carrerra's people had
been forced to leave.
It seemed the owner of KKCD Casino knew about Elisa's true identity and had gotten involved.
Eden furrowed his brow. How can there be something that I'm unaware of?
