Chapter 1749 There’s The Door Goodbye
"It's none of your business. This is between Elisa and me. As the only son of the Darcey family, you
need to think about carrying on the family line. Rumor has it Mrs. Darcey has been arranging blind
dates left, right, and center for you. I wonder if your dates would care to hear about your current
situation.
"Besides, so what if Elisa and I don't have feelings for each other anymore? She is still my wife. You,
on the other hand, who are you? What are you to her?"
Gareth hit a sore point in Will. Will didn't know what to say.
Although he sounded as easygoing as ever, Elisa could sense his anger.
They'd spent so much time together that she had become more perceptive to his emotions.
Just like Gareth never considered Will a serious competitor.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtThroughout their interactions, Gareth never looked Will directly in the eye.
As Elisa had suspected, Gareth didn't see Will as a rival.
She took a deep breath to compose herself. "Will and Rachel are both my friends. It is perfectly
reasonable for them to be here in my house." Elisa looked Gareth in the eye, ensuring he understood
every word she said. "As for you. You're the only one without an invitation. This is trespassing on
private property. I'd like you to leave, Mr. Wickam."
Elisa bit out his name. She was furious. This wasn't the first time Gareth had spoiled her good mood.
Why couldn't he just leave her alone? Let them both move on with their own lives.
Gareth stared at Elisa's flushed face. Memories of her blushing cheeks filled his mind. But this time,
she was angry.
"Why?"
Gareth's question didn't make sense.
What did he mean to ask? "Why are you treating me this way?", or "Why did you invite him?" or maybe,
"Why won't you let me in?"
Elisa had no intention of answering him, regardless of what he was trying to say.
Her gaze was distant and cold as if he were nothing more than a stranger to her. This was Gareth's
biggest fear.
He could handle hatred or disgust, but he couldn't bear to see Elisa look at him so coldly.
Because it meant she no longer cared for him.
"There's no 'why'. Leave."
"Don't look at me like that."
They were at an impasse. Gareth refused to leave while Elisa stared at him, refusing to let him in.
Gareth stared back at her.
Why was she looking at him like that? It was as if she was trying to erase everything they had between

"I came looking for you as soon as I was released from the hospital, and this is the welcome I get?
Don't let him stay here, please?"
Gareth's earlier demanding manner dissolved. He now resembled a kitten left out in the cold and wet.
The abrupt change left Rachel dumbfounded.
It was the first time she had ever seen Gareth so distraught.
But that wasn't enough for her to feel empathy for him.
Rachel went back to looking indifferent.
Meanwhile, Elisa gestured towards the door, "There's the door. Goodbye."
Elisa could not be more straightforward.
Elisa reached out to close the door, but Gareth didn't budge.
Her impatience showed.
Realizing Gareth was not planning on moving at all, Elisa shoved him.
