Chapter 1375 Self-Esteem Blow
Elisa glanced coolly at the man on the stage. Seeing his unwavering confidence as if she would agree,
she said coldly, "We're not acquainted enough for that."
Eden's eyes darkened, but he exuded an air of mystery with his mask on. Combined with his self-
control, nobody could sense the pressure he emitted.
While everyone wondered if the man would lose his temper and crack under pressure, Eden calmly
stepped down from the stage.
If anyone felt in the way, they immediately stepped back to make room.
In no time, he approached Elisa and Gareth.
Gareth still had his arm around Elisa's waist, and she could feel the cold aura emanating from him.
She could have been at least his date, brought along by him despite being the object of another guy's
desire in front of so many others. It most likely damaged his self-esteem.

She attempted to resist but didn't push away his arm. Despite feeling uncomfortable, she still had to
gaze at Eden right in front of her.
Eden, this time, didn't look at Elisa. Instead, his gaze settled on Gareth.
"Could I ask, Mr. Gareth, did you even give Miss Elisa a choice?"
Gareth's intense gaze bore directly into Eden.
The two men glowered at each other. Even though Eden wore a mask that concealed his true face, he
didn't fall short.
Moreover, he held a microphone in his hand, and everyone could hear every breath he took as he
spoke. His voice remained composed and unaffected by Elisa's rejection.
And Gareth...
The coldness emanating from him seemed to fill the entire hall. Even in the sweltering season, they felt
no need for air conditioning.

He naturally exuded a regal aura with a noble demeanor. Even without the microphone's suppression,
everyone could feel Gareth's presence.
Then, everyone heard Gareth say something awful.
"You're not worth it."
Though he didn't have a microphone, he stood close to Eden, and Gareth's voice transmitted through
Eden's microphone.
Many people looked up in question at the powerful presence.
On the surface, seeing another man lust after his lover could seem like a testimonial to her brilliance,
but it also made him feel inferior.
If one had enough power, who would dare to think such things?
However, speaking of Gareth's strength, it was already sufficient. Everyone there knew about Gareth's
situation.

Just by looking at them, it was evident that they were evenly matched, so there wasn't much
embarrassment involved.
But then again, others might not think he was embarrassed, but Gareth himself definitely felt that way.
A lot could be understood from Gareth's expression.
The smile at the corner of Eden's mouth remained unwavering. He chuckled lightly instead. "Not
worthy?"
Then, he turned his gaze towards Elisa, his intensity growing. "Elisa, do you know what consequences
you'll face for rejecting me today?"
Gareth's gaze turned icy, but this time he directed his attention towards Elisa, although he didn't
intentionally look at her.
Elisa paid no attention to Gareth. She looked at him calmly. "Do you think I care?"
"Do you think I would care?"
Everyone: "..."
Some were taken aback.
No matter how you spin it, this man could stand toe-to-toe with Gareth. Clearly...
