Chapter 1652 Full of Contempt

Elisa stared at Linda and continued with a half-smile, "But I didn't notice Ms. Tabor's presence just

now. Nonetheless, I've said that Gareth and I are just putting on a show for our own benefit. It

doesn't bother me who he left with."

Elisa wasn't telling a lie when she said she didn't notice Nicole. Given Gareth's personality, he

wouldn't leave with a woman whom he utterly detested unless he had some important agenda. He

was no ordinary man. Elisa believed he could handle his matters well. On the other hand, Nicole

couldn't possibly harm him on his turf.

"Ms. Benett, are you free tomorrow then?" Linda asked cautiously.

Elisa was pleased to hear the question—it showed that Linda had taken the bait.

Elisa thought about it and answered, "I have a business meeting tomorrow morning… And my

schedule in the afternoon is yet to be confirmed. What about this, I'll contact you tomorrow after I'm

done with work."

"Sure." Linda nodded. A triumphant smirk flashed across Linda's face as Elisa lowered her head to check her phone.

Elisa Bennett, this time, we shall see who's the real loser.

"Let's talk here."

Meanwhile, Gareth and Aaron left the banquet hall and came to a garden. Elisa was still at the banquet, so Gareth

didn't want to go too far.

Little did he expect Aaron to tease him with a cold, contemptuous sneer. "Mr. Wickam, you were never afraid when

you were in Moranta, but why did you become so timid after coming back?"

At once, Gareth's eyes darkened and were filled with murderous intent! If Aaron hadn't hinted that he was aware of

the attacker in KKCD Casino, Gareth would have taken him down immediately!

Gareth replied coldly, "You should know how to choose your words carefully."

"Of course I do. You're a big shot in Bayswe. You were fearless in Moranta, let alone being intimidated by an

insignificant person like me back here. However, there's no free lunch in the world. I only have one simple condition

if you want me to reveal that person—compensate Tabor Group's losses in the form of cash, stop retaliating against

the corporation, and hold a press conference to clarify that Nicole has never betrayed you, but it was part of Elisa's

scheme."

"Also, I want you to visit Nicole's father in the hospital and submit a new proposal to Tabor Group. All

these should be captured by the media. I don't need you to complete all of them right now. As long as

you agree, I'll reveal that attacker's identity immediately."

Aaron looked right into Gareth's eyes when he said those words, while the latter listened silently and

stared fixedly at Aaron.

Gareth's frigid gaze sent a chill down Aaron's spine. Just as Aaron was about to continue, Gareth

snorted, "Who gave you the guts to make so many demands of me?"

Gareth's expression was filled with contempt. He thought Aaron would request him to stop retaliating

against Tabor Group but didn't expect so many conditions.

Ha! An equivalent exchange will never happen when it comes to me, let alone a bargained exchange.
