Chapter 305 A Good Show Was Just About to Start “Garry, it’s me.”
The voice was still as gentle as before.
There was a trace of a smile on Elisa’s lips as she looked at Gareth. “Look, Mr. Wickam.
You owe my sister a huge favor. She’s worried about me, and she was afraid that I
couldn’t close the deal, so she came over personally. Do you still want to bring up such a
request in front of her? It won’t look good for anyone, would it? Linda would be sad.”
“She’s your cousin, and she treats you like a sister. You would go so far as to make use
of her?” Gareth’s cold face was spiteful, and his voice icy.
But Elisa didn’t care at all. She smiled cheerfully and said, “Don’t you know that I am a
vain person who wants to reach her goals at all costs? Everything I’m doing right now is
considered nothing. I think you better restrain yourself for my sister’s sake, Mr. Wickam.”
Gareth’s gaze was so sharp as if he wanted to send her to the gallows.
Elisa chuckled and stepped back a little, keeping a distance between the two of them.
It looked like the both of them were discussing the partnership in an ordinary manner.

Nothing more than that.
“Garry?”
Linda called out again from the outside when she didn’t hear any response for a long
time.
Gareth glanced at Elisa coldly as if warning her not to talk nonsense before he said in a
gentler tone, “Come in.”
The door opened suddenly.
Elisa lifted her eyes and saw Linda being pushed in by her assistant, Yara.
Linda glanced at Yara and smiled at her gently. “Wait for me outside. I’ll go in alone.”
“Alright.”
Elisa walked behind Linda and her back was facing Gareth. It seemed as though she
was looking at Linda with a silently hateful expression, but in the next moment, she
smiled and said, “Sis, I didn’t think that you would be worried about me closing the deal.”
Why did this sound like Elisa was acting coy? But upon close observation, Linda could
clearly hear the sarcasm and annoyance in her voice.
A sneer streaked across Linda’s face. How did Elisa have the nerve to show her
strength?
The result of displaying her strength would stop her from reaching her goals!
It was Elisa who had sent her a text message today.
—Elisa: ‘Dear sister, I’m at my ex-husband’s office now. He came looking for me. Do you
think you have won? I’m the only one in his heart. Even if I don’t want him, I won’t let the
two of you get together happily.’
Linda had been busy at the time when she realized that the text message had been sent
half an hour ago. She dropped everything and rushed here immediately.
Linda smiled. “That’s only natural. After all, you just joined the company, and you may
not do everything well. It’s only natural that I have to help you out.”
She wasn’t surprised that Elisa came to close the deal.
Elisa didn’t say anything else. She pushed Linda into the room.
Gareth sat at his office desk. Watching the two sisters interact, his face was dark, and he

Seeing the situation, there was a sliver of a smile on Linda’s face. She knew that Gareth
was definitely unhappy with Elisa’s appearance.
The next moment, she pretended to speak in a slightly awkward manner. “Did… I disturb
the two of you?”
Elisa stood behind Linda, and she looked at Gareth with curved lips. Her expression
seemed like she was provoking him.
What she wanted was for Linda to dig a hole of her own accord. Now that Linda had said
that she wanted to help her out as soon as she came in, she couldn’t change her mind.
As for Gareth, he owed Linda a favor to begin with. With Linda around, it would be easy
for Elisa to close the deal. At the same time, she wouldn’t have to agree to his absurd
conditions.
Because it was impossible for Gareth to bring up such a request in front of Linda. It
would make him seem like he… couldn’t let go of an old flame, and this would make
Linda feel worse.
That was the reason.
The curve on Elisa’s lips deepened. A good show was just about to start.
