No Chance of Remarriage Get Lost (Elisa) -
Chapter 361
Chapter 361 Like A Hedgehog
“You can beg me.”
Elisa was rendered speechless as she gazed at Gareth. “Gareth Wickam, is there something wrong
with your brain?”
Gareth’s expression turned gloomy. “If it wasn’t for me, you would have drowned in the water. My
phone was even spoiled because of you. Shouldn’t you beg for my forgiveness?”
Elisa smiled. “Given the situation, you shouldn’t accuse me of being ungrateful. I know you didn’t
rescue me for my sake, but because you didn’t want Grandma to worry. Even if you didn’t rescue me
today, some other kind soul would.”
To think about it, she would have appreciated anyone else who saved her, even if that person had his
or her own motive. After all, that person would have been her life-saver.
However, she just couldn’t bring herself to thank Gareth. Whatever. Indeed, I’m a petty person.
Sure enough, Gareth’s face turned sullener, but Elisa continued staring at him fearlessly. “Would you
only buy me a phone if I beg you?”
She knew Gareth wouldn’t allow her to head out today, and she thought it was unnecessary to provoke
him at this moment.
It could be dangerous out there. Linda was a maniac – she would even stage a car accident with
herself being the victim. There was nothing she wouldn’t do. So, it was indeed risky for Elisa to go out
at night.
Truth be told, Gareth was still unhappy about Elisa.
“Why didn’t you tell me?”
Elisa was startled for a moment before she realized what he was talking about. She put on a faint smile
and asked, “Would you believe me if I told you?”
Gareth didn’t know how to respond. Elisa smirked when she perceived his response. He clearly
remembers that he never believed what I said in the past.
Gareth closed his eyes and mumbled, “I’ll get someone to buy a new phone for you. Call Grandma and
tell her you’re safe. She has been looking for you.”
Elisa said nothing and immediately walked to the home phone to call Julia.
Soon, Julia picked up the call. “Hello.”
“Hey Grandma, it’s me, Elisa.”
There was a slight pause at the other end of the line before Julia asked anxiously, “Hey Elisa, is
everything okay? I saw you were drenched just now. What happened?”
It was very quiet in the room. Gareth was standing not far away from the phone. Even though Elisa did
not put the call on speaker, he could still hear Julia’s voice.
Elisa sat down in front of the phone. The expression on her fair face softened into a gentle grin. “I stood
too close to the water and accidentally fell into it. I’m fine now, Grandma.”
“I don’t believe that you’re fine! Please be more careful next time and don’t linger around those
dangerous places, okay?”
“Okay. Don’t worry, Grandma. I promise it won’t happen again.” Elisa spoke gently while Gareth
became more frustrated.
It is as if this woman can easily switch between personalities. She’s extremely gentle to Grandma, but
she’s like a hedgehog when facing me, defensive and invasive.
Elisa continued talking with Julia for some time before she hung up the phone.
Just then, someone knocked on the door.
“Mr. Wickam.” Thomas’ voice came forth, which surprised Elisa.
Gareth regained his composure and went to answer the door. Thomas passed a white, high-quality bag
to Gareth. “The one on top is for Ms. Elisa.”
Gareth said nothing and closed the door after receiving the bag.
Elisa was perplexed. It doesn’t look like dinner. Could it be…
Gareth cast an aloof glance at her and opened the bag to take out his stuff. Thereafter, he ignored her.
