Chapter 56 Don’t Hold It Against Her Elisa got up and looked at Gareth. With a smile, she said, “Good bye, Mr. Wickam.” She sounded slightly wistful, as though they were never to meet again.
Nevertheless, he merely let out a cold snort and walked away without sparing her a second glance.
But...
As soon as he walked out of the building, he immediately came to a sudden halt, making Elisa almost bump into him.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtWhen she raised her head, she saw Will leaning against the wall, waiting for her with both his hands in his pockets.
Why is he here? Her eyes flickered.
He smiled at Gareth. “Hi again, Mr. Wickam.” Gareth’s face darkened even further as he returned a frosty stare. “Mr. Darcey, it's quite windy today — do take care.” It was a clear reminder to him, but Will did not seem to mind at all.
“Don’t worry about it — my body is quite strong and healthy.” After giving him another cold smile, Gareth left.
Will's gaze shifted to Elisa. “Congratulations on becoming single again,” he said with a loving look in his eyes.
Elisa's eyes flickered slightly as she placed the divorce statement into her bag. “Thanks.” She knew that Will was here to add fuel to fire.
Of course he was relieved she had finally divorced him, but he also wanted to annoy Gareth.
If his opponent was living a good life, it would be considered a disrespect to himself.
“What would you like to eat?” he asked, walking closer to Elisa.
She shook her head. “| ate before | came out just now, but thanks for asking, Mr. Darcey.” Upon hearing her reply, he arched his eyebrows, but he did not force his intentions upon her. Instead, he asked gently, “Are you going home? | can give you a lift.” She pursed her lips. Just as she was about to reject him, he had already grabbed her wrist and shoved her into the front seat of his car.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmSeeing that she still attempted to get out, he blocked her with a smile on his face. “You don’t have to feel pressured when you're with me. | won’t use you for my own benefit; even if | do, there’s genuine feelings behind that as well.” She smiled. “What a joke, Mr. Darcey.” Genuine feelings are the most worthless thing in the world. After the past three years, I've finally understood that | would rather believe in anything else apart from love. Perhaps others might find true love, but these two words won't happen to me ever again.
Since she no longer had the intention to get out of the car, Will closed the door and went to the driver's seat.
“Where are we going?” He turned on the engine, shifted the gear, and started driving.
Elisa was about to ask some further questions, but her phone suddenly rang.
Her eyes flickered with uncertainty when she saw that the caller was Julia, but after some hesitation, she finally picked it up.
“Grandma.” “Elisa, both of you" “We're divorced.” She pursed her lips.
“Oh...” Julia could not help sighing. “Well, it's for the better, so you won't be spending your time in pain. Don’t worry — | will find the best guy for you, who is a hundred times better than Gareth! | will find a man who would love his wife.” Elisa burst out laughing. “It's okay, Grandma. | don't have any intentions of that sort right now. You don’t have to worry about me.” However, as soon as she finished speaking, she suddenly heard Monica's loud yell. “What? Elisa divorced you?” From her tone, it seemed like she was in a call with Gareth.
Julia quickly covered the earpiece and explained exasperatedly, “Elisa, | know that you have suffered a lot because of this, but Monica's temperament is just like this. Don’t hold it against her.” While speaking, Elisa could hear that Julia was walking away, and she guessed that the latter was either walking to the washroom or back to her room.
When she heard what Julia told her right after that, she felt less guilty about the divorce.
