Chapter 1978 The Formal Meeting
The call to Julia was quickly answered, but it was Maria picked up the phone.
“Ms. Benett, I'm so glad you finally called. Madam Smith will definitely be delighted when she wakes
up!” There was a hint of excitement in Maria's voice.
With a smile tugging at her lips, Elisa asked, “Is Grandma resting now?”
“Yes, ever since you were taken away, Madam Smith hasn't had a good rest. It was only after knowing
you were safe that she could finally rest.”
Elisa nodded, instructing Maria to take good care of Julia. Then, she assured that she would visit Julia
later with Gareth.
After finishing the message, she finally hung up the phone.
At the same time, she was also reflecting on herself.
Grandma is already in such an old age, yet we're still causing her to worry about me. From now on, I
need to consider the consequences when taking action. It's not just about thinking of my safety, but
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtalso considering those whom I care about and those who care about me.
Thinking about this, Elisa couldn't help but anticipate that today's gathering should be quite interesting.
When it was almost time to get off work, Rachel sent over the address.
They went to the large food stall they often visited, with Elisa bringing along Bella.
By the time Elisa arrived, Rachel and the two guys were already there.
The three individuals, dressed in incredibly lavish attire worth seven-figure, sat at a street food stall. No
matter how one looked at it, the scene was undeniably odd.
Yet, there was a strange balance that made things look rather normal.
Perhaps it was because, even though this place was a street-side food stall, it was kept very clean. It
didn't look dirty, messy or anyone making a racket nearby.
Apart from Gareth, all were unfamiliar faces, which made Bella seem somewhat restrained.
Elisa pulled her to sit down and began introducing everyone one by one.
“Allow me to make the introduction. This is Rachel, a very good friend of mine.” Elisa stood up and
started introducing Rachel to Bella.
With a light heart, Bella raised his wine glass, her smile radiant.
“So you're Rachel. Elisa often mentions you.”
Rachel also liked Bella very much, and stood up to return the toast.
The two of them sat together, feeling as if they had met each other too late.
It was all because Rachel really liked the scenery, culture, and charm of Juxshire, and Bella was
originally from Juxshire.
This was also why Bella's character was gentle.
It was not because she was afraid of inviting trouble or timid.
That was simply the characteristic of the people from Juxshire.
The girls there spoke softly and gently.
However, after spending so much time with Elisa in the company, Bella had shed her naivety and some
of her gentleness. She had become efficient and decisively assertive.

That was no wonder Rachel liked her.
Seeing the two of them chatting so comfortably, Elisa finally felt at ease.
Next up was to introduce Vincent.
With a sense of self-awareness, Vincent stood up holding a glass in his hand, and began to introduce
himself.
“Hello, I am Vincent Shane. I work as a lawyer. I am a friend of Ms. Markee.”
Upon hearing that, Rachel on the side rolled her eyes so hard, they could have almost reached the sky.
Elisa and Gareth exchanged glances, seeing the hint of laughter in each other's eyes.
Bella sarcastically drawled, “Oh——” with an exaggeratedly long tone.
And just like that, they had officially met each other.
Rachel had already ordered the dishes, and they were served one by one.
Beside them was the menu. Rachel picked it up and handed it to Bella.
“Take a look and see if there's anything else you'd like to add. Elisa doesn't need anything else, I've
already ordered everything she likes.”
Upon hearing this, Elisa smiled, her lips pursed.
