No Chance of Remarriage Get Lost (Elisa) -
Chapter 1246
Chapter 1246 Crumbling Smile
Nicole only regained her composure when Gareth stood in front of them. She smiled at Gareth and said, "Hi, Mr.
Wickham. I didn't expect to see you here. What a coincidence."
Everyone could tell the last sentence sounded fake.
Elisa's gaze fell on Gareth too. The latter didn't appear awkward at all and replied calmly, "Mm-hmm. We're
planning to do a project here."
Nicole was rendered speechless. Can't he think of a better excuse? There's only one village around this area. The
only potential project is the one we're looking at now. There are no other projects to be inspected. It's funny how he
blurted the answer brazenly.
On the other hand, Elisa also couldn't understand why Gareth came. Although she had a guess, she denied it as she
thought she was overthinking.
She decided not to mull over it, thinking Gareth's intention was none of her business.
"I see." Nicole's smile stiffened. Gareth's reply was so perfunctory that she was at a loss for words.
Gareth stood still beside the two and said nothing. Elisa glanced at him strangely. "Aren't you going to inspect your
project?"
She wasn't keen to have Gareth around because his presence would disturb their ongoing conversation.
"I'm not in a hurry."
Gareth answered briefly and stood still as if he didn't receive Elisa's implied meaning.
Both Eliza and Nicole looked at him in an odd manner, but he didn't feel out of place.
Nicole couldn't stand it anymore. She inhaled deeply and smiled at Elisa. "I've shown you the main areas. If you're
satisfied with it, you can contact me for further discussion."
Elisa nodded. "Sure."
Nicole had no intention of continuing the discussion at the moment. Besides, it was a collaboration between Benett
Corporation and Tabor Group, so she didn't intend to reveal too much information to Gareth.
"It's getting late. We shall leave." Nicole uttered naturally. Let's see how Gareth will react if we leave now. Will he
continue putting on the act?
Elisa nodded cooperatively. "Okay."
She didn't want to bother with Gareth. However, worrying that Nicole would notice something fishy and report it to
Julia, she hesitated before asking Gareth, "When do you plan to leave?"
"Stay and wait for me." Gareth's tone remained calm and indifferent, so Nicole couldn't catch anything unusual.
Despite being reluctant, Elisa agreed.
Nicole's expression stiffened. Suppressing her resentment, she feigned a natural smile and said, "I shall take my
leave first."
Elisa courteously said goodbye while Gareth nodded in acknowledgment.
When Nicole turned around with her back facing the couple, her smile crumbled immediately.
She held a glimmer of hope when she couldn't meet Gareth, but now that she had met him, she felt like her heart
was bleeding. The man she loved stood right before her, yet she dared not stare at him.
