Chapter 362 How Guilty Should the Ex-wife Be?

After Gareth went back to his bedroom, Elisa walked up to the couch and opened the bag to see a

phone box and medicine below it.

Elisa was surprised. She took out the medicine and was stunned to realize that it was an ointment to

treat bruises. She recalled that she had lifted her gown during the banquet, so Gareth had seen her

leg. I can’t believe he’s so attentive.

Elisa didn’t bother with the ointment and went back to her bedroom after setting up the new phone to

contact Charli.

Charli soon picked up the call.

“Elisa?”

Elisa’s eyes glistened. “Charli, my phone was spoiled after being soaked in water. I just replaced my

phone card.”

Charli asked worriedly, “What exactly happened?”

Elisa pressed her lips. “I’m not sure about the exact situation. I stepped outside alone, and someone

pushed me into the water.”

Charli snorted and grumbled crabbily, “I have to replace out who the culprit is! I’ve already sent someone to

look into the matter. I believe it won’t take long to catch that person. Luckily you informed me earlier.”

Elisa mumbled, “The culprit most probably got a scapegoat, but there’s still a chance of replaceing some

clues. I’m leaving this matter to you, Charli. Thank you.”

“Don’t mention it. You don’t have to thank me.” Charli seemed to be displeased.

Elisa smiled. “How are you now? Is everything okay?” Charli’s worried voice emerged again.

“I’m all well. Don’t worry about me, Charli.”

“Okay. Be more careful from now on and try not to go out on your own.”

“Alright.” Elisa still wanted to say something to Charli, but a frosty voice came forth from outside the

door. “Come out for dinner.”

Elisa thought that what she wanted to say wasn’t too important, so she said, “Charli, I have some other

matters to attend to. Goodbye.”

“Alright, go ahead. Take care.”

“Thanks.” Elisa was touched.

After hanging up the call, she walked out of the room. Gareth had already arranged the meal boxes on

the dining table. Elisa washed her hands and sat down across from Gareth. At that moment, Gareth

had already started eating. Elisa thought the scene was rather surreal.

Although there was no deadly feud between Gareth and her, they had divorced after all, yet they were

under the same roof now and their interaction was even more intimate than when they were married…

Truth was, Gareth had never eaten with her at home during their three years of marriage. He would

only appear at the dining table when Julia threatened him. But now…

Ha. I guess it’s because of Grandma. Otherwise, he wouldn’t have brought me along for this business

trip.

At that thought, Elisa picked up the cutleries.

Suddenly, Gareth’s phone rang. He frowned upon seeing the incoming caller ID. Elisa instinctively

thought he hated being interrupted while having a meal.

Gareth was reluctant to answer the call, but remembering that Elisa was sitting across from him, he

involuntarily picked up the call and put it on speaker.

Before Gareth could say anything, an anxious voice came forth. “Hey Garry, is everything okay? I saw

you walk out with Elisa in your arms. Did you rescue her? Are both of you okay?”

Sarcasm flashed through Elisa’s eyes. So, it’s her. She definitely sounds gentle and thoughtful. Her

fiancé is involved with her cousin, who is also her fiancé’s ex-wife. Not only isn’t she displeased, but

she’s actually worried sick. How guilty should the ex-wife be?

Elisa lifted her eyes and noticed the complicated emotions in Gareth’s eyes.
