Gareth’s expression seemed to have turned colder. “How long are you going to try to be brave?!”
Upon hearing the fury intertwined in his voice, Elisa looked at him in slight surprise. “What’s wrong with
you?”
Gareth’s brows instantly furrowed.
He also wanted to know what was wrong with him!
Elisa couldn’t understand the reason for his behavior. She said calmly, “I can eat by myself. You may
leave.”
After that, Elisa sat up, and her actions were very smooth. If Gareth hadn’t personally witnessed how
her spotless and perfect shoulder had been mutilated, he would have doubted if Elisa had actually
been injured.
She ate with ease with one hand. Gareth felt that if he stuck around, it would make him seem like he
was just hanging out. He didn’t say a word as he got up and left.

Elisa looked at his figure. Although she wasn’t surprised by how moody he was, she felt that his
temperament was worse.
But, of course, this was Gareth’s personal matter. It had nothing to do with her. She ate in an
unconcerned manner.
Although her shoulder hurt, she could withstand the pain. She didn’t feel like her injury held her back.
After she finished eating, she got up and put everything outside.
Gareth was sitting in the living room. He laughed in rage when he saw her actions.
He opened his mouth and wanted to say something, but Elisa ignored him. After putting the things
down, she returned to her room like a regular person.
Gareth closed his eyes and took a deep breath in. In the end, he got up and walked out.
She was excellent and didn’t need his care. There was no need for him to stay there.
After he walked out, he went to Vincent’s suite.
Rachel happened to come out at this time. Upon seeing Gareth, she asked subconsciously, “Where’s
Liz?”
“She’s in the room because she was injured. You can go and look after her.”
Rachel was stunned.
Her expression changed abruptly. “Injured?!”
Vincent’s expression darkened, and he immediately looked at Gareth. Although he didn’t say a word,
he clearly meant to express, ‘I thought we weren’t allowed to tell her!’
Gareth didn’t look at Vincent at all. He said indifferently, “She was stabbed by a dagger, but her injury
has been bound.”
Rachel couldn’t be bothered about anything else. Gareth handed her his room card, and she left
immediately.
Only the two men were left in the suite.

Vincent’s face darkened slightly, and he said in a displeased manner, “Are you hurt? Why can’t you
take care of her? Why did you have to tell Rachel?”
If Gareth didn’t tell Rachel, she wouldn’t have noticed, and Vincent wouldn’t have said anything.
Gareth sized Vincent up and sneered. “Rachel is just taking care of Elisa. Can’t you bear to part with
her even for a while?”
It seemed to have struck a nerve with Vincent, and his expression suddenly turned nasty. The next
moment, he said adamantly, “I’m respecting Elisa’s wishes! She clearly said not to inform Rachel so
that Rachel wouldn’t worry!”
Gareth scoffed. “Do you think I believe you?”
“Who cares if you do? Even if you don’t believe me, this is a fact! Now that Rachel is going over, Elisa
will resent you even more! I don’t think you have to confess to her! Just hold it in! You’re going to die of
old age alone!”
Gareth’s cold gaze fell on him. “I’ve said that I’m not interested in her.”
