Chapter 1696 Gareth Isn’t As Good As Will
Linda stared back innocently.
Maintaining her composure, Elisa smiled slowly. "I'm a woman of my word. But Will might still be
recovering. I'll have to call him to confirm."
Linda laughed easily. "That's so kind of you, Elisa! Thank you for being so willing to help me."
Elisa smiled widely at Linda, "You're welcome."
Nothing further was said.
Linda continued acting like a sweet, innocent girl.
She knew Elisa wouldn't actually introduce her to anyone. But as Elisa was the one to bring it up, Linda
was determined to build a connection with Will. Once they had a connection, she wouldn't need to rely
on Elisa anymore. Her current appearance was nothing less than a beauty. Who knows, after talking to
Will a few times, he might fall in love with her.

He answered almost immediately.
"Elisa, finally." Will sounded gentle and sweet. He sounded in much better health than when she last
spoke to him.
Elisa blinked. She remembered what her mother had told her. She pursed her lips shut. "How are you
feeling?"
"Recovering. Not bad." Will coughed.
"Not bad?" Elisa frowned.
"Yeah."
He coughed again.
Elisa frowned. Something didn't feel right. "What's wrong?" She asked.
"I'm honestly fine. I just had a tickle in my throat." Will smiled.
There was a slight pause when Elisa noticed Linda was listening closely. Elisa asked lightly, "What are
your thoughts about the Western Suburbs project? I met a new friend recently."
Elisa emphasized the word 'friend'.
She knew Will well enough to know he would pick up on it.
"What's up?"
"It's Melinda Garner, heiress of the Garner family. She's just returned. Her family wants her to take over
some company projects, but… You know how it is. She's just returned, and few are convinced of her
abilities."
Will stayed quiet. He waited for Elisa to continue.
"She needs a project to prove herself, which was why I thought of the Western Suburbs project. She's
right next to me. If you'd like, maybe the both of you could have a chat about it."
"Cough…"

Will started to cough.
Elisa hid a smirk. His coughs earlier were involuntary, but this one wasn't.
He understood what she wanted of him.
He knew she wasn't the type to introduce anyone to him. This was a game.
Elisa asked urgently, "Are you okay?"
Linda listened with barely hidden anxiety.
What was wrong with Elisa?!
Why did she inquire about his health after asking the crucial question?
Before she could dwell on it any further, Will spoke up.
"I'm fine. I think it's just a cold from leaving my window open. I'll be okay after a few days."
Linda grew antsy with anticipation.
Actually…
She had put all of her attention on Gareth in the past, but the truth was, there wasn't much difference
between Will and Gareth. In fact, Will was better than Gareth.
Gareth was divorced, and right now, he was consumed with thoughts of Elisa.
But Will Darcey had never been married!
