At night, Gareth ate dinner with her as usual.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtElisa noticed that he was restless but continued eating without any concern.
Unexpectedly, Gareth’s phone rang again.
It was Linda.
She smiled as he furrowed his brows. “Isn’t she your savior as well as your girlfriend? Isn't it bad to not pick up the call?” He shot daggers at her mocking smile and snorted. “Who said | wasn't going to pick it up?” The smile on her face turned even more cynical. “| was just saying.” It sounded like she was provoking him.
He sneered and picked up the call.
Linda's gentle and caring voice cthrough before he could say a word. “Garry, have you eaten?” “I'm eating now.” Linda was surprised. “What a coincidence. How's work today?” He gave Elisa a cold look and was about to reply when Elisa spoke up with a smile. “Mr. Wickam, you shouldn't be using your phone during mealtimes, let alone making a phone call. How can my dear cousin forget her principles?” Linda was stunned.
Elisa! It's Elisa! She knew she wasn’t wrong. There was a taunting laugh yesterday. It must have been Elisa’s laugh! She must be having dinner with Gareth.
She immediately forgot the explanation with Gareth earlier and couldn't help but ask. “Elisa? Are you there too?” “Yeah, | have to work with Mr. Wickam every single day. It's exhausting.” She was implying that they were joined at the hip the entire time.
Wench! This wench! Linda was at a loss for words.

Linda widened her eyes. Her breath quickened.
She gripped the phone tighter as her voice becshrill. “Elisa, what are you saying?” Elisa chuckled. “I think you understand what I'm saying, Linda. But Mr. Wickam doesn’t like talking during mealtimes. Shouldn't you, as a girlfriend, be more mindful?” “Elisa, you...” Linda couldn't hold her temper back any longer. “Garry, is it true?” He kept silent.
Elisa watched him curiously. He didn’t look like he was furious, not even the tiniest bit.
Shouldn't he be outraged by my taunts? Or is this just the calm before the storm? She broke out in a smile. It didn’t matter to her. She wasn't just trying to vent her anger when she interrupted them. It was all part of her ploy.
