Chapter 1658 Am I That Stupid
Wait a minute. Am I angry because Gareth is concerned about Linda? I shouldn't be bothered whether
Gareth still cares about Linda. Why am I angry?
Elisa was speechless when she realized her frustration, and she despised herself. Gareth was right—
she was indeed jealous.
Little did she know Gareth caught her subtle frown. He didn't believe Elisa. "Elisa, you can be true to
yourself, just like me. It's not difficult."
Elisa was at a loss for words and simply couldn't accept it because Gareth made her sound like a
coward.

three years with you. You're the one who initiated the divorce. I'm not cold-blooded like you. Of
course, I had feelings for you during the three-years marriage."
Elisa reached out her hand to push Gareth, but Gareth stood motionless like a mountain.
"Since you still have feelings for me, and I've figured out my own feelings too, why don't you give me a chance? Is
my intention lately not obvious enough?" Gareth questioned Elisa.
Sure enough, his intention couldn't be more obvious. He always cared for her, knew her preferences, and even
shielded her from the gunshot. He did all he could to restore their relationship. However, Elisa had been desperate
and deeply hurt, so she couldn't easily forget what had happened just because of Gareth's recent actions.
Elisa tightened her grip on Gareth's wrist, causing him to wince in pain, but he still stepped forward to Elisa
relentlessly. Finally, Elisa jabbed a needle into his neck.
Gareth stared at Elisa in disbelief as he didn't expect her to harm him. Perceiving Gareth's expression, Elisa uttered
aloofly, "I've told you we should keep a distance. Since you refused to listen, I'm not a pushover either."
Gareth didn't answer. Just as Elisa was about to leave, he covered his chest and frowned in agony. He didn't let out
a cry, but his distorted expression said it all.
Elisa halted her step when she saw Gareth's condition. Recalling the scene when Gareth shielded her from the
bullet, her heart softened, and she reached out her hand to feel his pulse. However, the next second, Gareth
grabbed her waist, seized her hand, and pinned her to the wall once again.
Before Elisa could realize what was going on, Gareth pressed his lips against hers and forcefully restrained her
hands above her head.
Elisa's heart jolted as she stared at the man in shock. She instinctively struggled to break away from him, but she
was not as strong as Gareth.

Elisa's face turned gloomy. She couldn't break away from him no matter how she struggled, yet she
couldn't bring herself to bite him. Suddenly, Gareth slumped onto the ground with his face turning
pale as a sheet.
Elisa glared at him threateningly. "Gareth Wickam, you used the same trick twice. Am I that stupid to
you?"
It was the first time Gareth forced himself upon Elisa, disregarding her feelings, which disgusted her.
Gareth didn't reply to her but collapsed onto the floor with his eyes closed. Elisa's heart skipped a
beat. "Gareth?" She called out to him.
Perceiving no response from Gareth, she crouched down to nudge him, but Gareth remained
motionless…
