Chapter 1983 Unusual Emotions Gareth stared at Elisa's retreating figure, shaking his head helplessly.
Right after that, he called the cleaner to return and tidy up while he got ready to head to the office.
When Elisa arrived at the company, the receptionist seemed somewhat surprised.
After all, it was rare for Elisa to be late. They even asked if Elisa was feeling unwell.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtUpon hearing that, Elisa was somewhat at a loss for words. Did she just ask if | have a headache after my hangover? She omitted the reason, simply stating that she wasn't feeling well that day, The receptionist, with a concerned look on her face, kindly advised Elisa to take a good rest.
As Elisa agreed, she touched her nose, feeling a bit guilty. What's going on? However, before getting on the elevator, she overheard some juicy gossip while the receptionists were chatting.
“The college student who was previously dismissed by Kaylee started his job today. Apparently, he was specially recruited by Ms.
Wickam. Not only is he very capable, but he’s also tall and handsome...” After listening halfway, Elisa chose not to continue indulging the girl's crush.
After pressing the elevator button, she went upstairs. As she pa*sed by the department where Mike worked, she made sure to take a look at him. He's quite a handsome young man. What's this? Has someone finally found love? When Bella came to give the report, Elisa couldn't help but ask about Mike's situation.
Bella simply said that she happened to run into someone and lent a hand, and then he was invited to the company.
Elisa knew things weren't as simple as they seemed, but she just smiled and didn't ask any further. In the company, every senior executive has their own rights. It's not like everything is up to me.
Admitting someone out of the ordinary is no big deal, especially when that person wasn’t some sort of relation but an outstanding student. Naturally, Elisa wouldn't have anything to say about it.
Bella felt grateful that Elisa didn't dig deeper into the matter, yet she couldn't help but think of Kaylee’s situation. “Kaylee must have heard that Mike has come to the company, and she’s going wild on social. media. She's insinuating that she wanted this person to join the company, saying things like he’s your old flame and such...
Elisa raised an eyebrow, not particularly concerned about such matters. If she truly has the courage and evidence, she is more than welcome to dance her way to me for confrontation or whatever she pleases. Yet, she could only vent her emotions on social media, hiding behind the screen to express her feelings like a pitiful creature.

Bella's mouth twitched slightly. When it comes to being aggressive, Elisa takes the cake. In just a few words, Kaylee's behavior is called clownish.
i “By the way. Mike?” Elisa teased, giving Bella a meaningful look.
Bella spread her arms and shrugged. “I simply wanted to retain talent for the company. | ran into this situation by chance and lent a hand, so here he is.” Elisa nodded with a smile. Perhaps even Bella herself hadn't noticed the way Mike looked at her. It was so intense Well, apart from that scumbag of a fiancé, Bella's romantic experience is virtually non-existent. Moreover, from past lessons, it's clear that Bella's judgment of men isn't quite sharp.
Elisa didn’t want to force things along, so she decided to just let nature take its course.
Bella packed her things, ready to leave. As she was about to go, she remembered her grandmother's words “Grandma has invited you over for dinner today. Are you free?” After some thought, Elisa nodded.
