Chapter 1247 Are You Worried About Me

She was worried that Gareth would detest being stared at by her and that it would arouse his suspicion.

Did he come because he was suspicious of something? Otherwise, why would he show up at precisely this hour?

Nicole took a deep breath and strode away. This man will belong to me sooner or later! When that time comes, I'll

be the only woman in his eyes!

After Nicole left, Elisa averted her gaze to Gareth. None of them moved, so Elisa asked, "Are you leaving?"

Gareth's visage became stern. Perceiving Elisa's unconcerned look, he seized her wrist and forcefully pulled her into

the car.

Elisa frowned sullenly. "What are you doing?" She couldn't break away from Gareth and could only allow him to pull

her into the car.

After closing the car door, Gareth stared at her with a darkened face. "Do you know who exactly Nicole is?"

At that moment, Elisa was seated in the passenger seat while Gareth was seated in the driver's seat.

Elisa answered calmly. "Of course, I know."

Gareth's expression turned more serious as anger surfaced in his eyes. "If you knew, why did you still meet her

when she asked you out?"

Elisa glanced at Gareth and hesitated momentarily before saying, "I'm very satisfied with the proposal, and I'm sure

she won't lay a finger on me this time."

Gareth laughed out of anger. Elisa furrowed her brows. Perceiving that Gareth was on the verge of flaring up, she

asked, "Are you worried about me?"

"Otherwise, why do you think I left my work and came here? Do I have nothing better to do?" Gareth answered

solemnly.

Elisa was startled as she did not expect him to admit it readily.

The next second, she regained her composure. He needs me to treat his stomach cancer and Grandma's lung

cancer. My life is important, so it's natural for him to be concerned about my safety. If this happened during the

years before we divorced, he wouldn't even care if I committed suicide.

Elisa smirked. "Don't worry. I'll protect myself so that I won't suddenly disappear while you and Grandma are still

under treatment."

Gareth's expression became more ghastly despite Elisa's assurance. Glaring at Elisa coldly, he pressed his lips and

remained silent.

Sarcasm flashed across Elisa's eyes. So, I was right.

She turned her face away, not wanting to spare a glance at Gareth. She gazed at the night sky and uttered, "It's

getting late. I'm going back first."

At that moment, she was sitting in Gareth's car. Just as she was about to get out of the car, Gareth locked the car.

Elisa frowned. "My car is here. I need to drive it back."

Gareth didn't bother to answer Elisa but started the car engine and sped away.

Elisa was thrown forward due to inertia. She quickly fastened her seatbelt and turned to stare at Gareth sulkily. She

said nothing, knowing that Gareth was annoyed because she had taken a huge risk.

Gareth knew that Elisa took the risk because of him, but Elisa thought Gareth was ridiculous.
