Jeremy beamed a smile. There was no need for him to say some more since Vincent was in denial.
Meanwhile, Gareth was perturbed by Jeremy’s unwitting words. Jeremy’s voice kept playing back in his
head, “Look into your heart. You’re now behaving like the old Gareth.” Now, he could perceive the
subtle changes in Vincent’s feelings for Rachel. His abhorrence for Rachel gradually converted to love
each time he lamented about her.
What about me?
Am I in love with Elisa?
He flustered at his thought. His eyes were filled with repugnance when he recalled the tabloid stings.
How could he have feelings for a deceitful woman like her?
Both Will and Carle were fooled by her.

Elisa went home after having dinner with Will. Although she wanted to see Brandon immediately, she
knew she had to make an appointment with him first. Also, she had to dig up on the past to better equip
herself lest Brandon wasn’t forthright with her.
But… her phone rang just as she was switching on her computer.
At this point, she dreaded receiving calls from Carle, but when she saw that it was Sheena, she was
slightly relieved.
“Sheen?”
“Ellie, you’re on the trending searches again.” Sheena sounded worried.
Elisa was startled, “Again?”
She went into Twitter as she spoke. She was unnerved after watching a suggestive video of her and
Will, “We didn’t have physical contact at all. The person behind the video deliberately filmed us from an
ambiguous angle.”
“I know… but the tabloids are all over you now, saying you’re a crafty woman playing Will and Gareth
for your own gain. I’m worried if Carle reads it…”
Elisa pursed her lips, “Carle has read about it and called me, but I didn’t explain anything. I told him I
won’t allow any stumbling blocks to hamper my revenge. I won’t hesitate to get rid of any potential
setbacks or stumbling blocks before it spoils my plan, including him.”
Sheena was dumbfounded, “Oh my god. How could you tell him that?!”
“I’m trying to protect him. This is the best I can do to prepare him for what is to come before the truth
breaks him. Perhaps… the tabloid stings are a timely wake-up call to show him that I’m a deceitful
woman who plays among men. That way, it will be easier for him to move on.”
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmSheena sighed deeply, “We have known each other since we were little. We have been friends for a
long time, Liz. Do you think he will believe you’re the wicked woman you claimed you are? Instead of
hating you for driving him away, he would take your dismissal as a cry for help. His affection for you
may spiral. He will then become even more protective of you.”
Elisa bit her lower lip and was lost in thought. Her eyes were filled with remorse and gloom.
Still holding the phone, Sheena paused before speaking again, “I’ll rush to him after this. Let me go and
check up on him.”
“Thank you…” Elisa’s voice dwindled in abashment. She couldn’t help but feel bad for the sorrow and
inconvenience she had inflicted on her friends who were trying to help her.
“Stop dwelling on it. After all, we have no control over our emotions and feelings. Carle still loves you,
just like me; I know he loves you a lot, but I still can’t stop pining for him. There’s no explanation for
one’s feelings and emotions. Nobody should be blamed. I can only say that Carle and I are not meant
to be.”
