Elisa did not want to overthink. She had enough on her plate, with everyone staring at her. She walked down the

path they had created.

What trick is Gareth trying to pull?!

The fierce gaze of the crowd felt like knives stabbing her. She didn’t have to look to know it was from the females in

the lobby.

Elisa’s calm expression suddenly turned rigid when she reached the doors.

This b*stard! No wonder the employees didn’t leave.

They couldn’t leave because the roads were blocked. No one dared to destroy the scene in front of them.

The place was filled with rose petals, from the door, down the steps, to the pavement in front of the building. A man

in a black suit stood in the middle of all that. He was surrounded by roses. There was even a phrase planted out in

roses; love of my life.

Elisa felt disgusted. She couldn’t understand why some women were crying out of jealousy.

Gareth fixed his gaze on Elisa and said softly, “You finally came out.”

Elisa felt the hairs on her arm stand up!

Gareth sure can pretend like we did not publicly divorce. What a toxic man!

Just as Elisa heard, none of the employees left. Even those that weren’t interested in gossip couldn’t go. No one

dared to ruin the scene.

Elisa was unhappy, and it was shown clearly through her expression. She ground her teeth as she looked at the

roses.

What a b*stard!

Gareth felt uneasy when he saw the unhappiness on Elisa’s face. The people behind her were also looking at him

with engrossed eyes.

Some of them were disinterested, but this was a matter of their boss! They couldn’t look away! It wasn’t often

someone influential like Gareth Wickam would bring flowers and confess to Elisa Benett in front of them. They

watched the scene before them, wondering what Gareth would do next and how Elisa would respond.

Elisa looked at Gareth coldly. She was able to shut down his advances, but he spoke first, “Grandma said you would

like this.”

Elisa was speechless. Wow. This man is on another level! How dare he use Grandma to pressure me! What if

Grandma is watching? I can’t be too mean; Grandma might get sad. It might even affect the stock market if things

get out of hand.

Elisa became angrier as she thought about these questions. She stepped into the sea of flowers and made her way

to him.

She ground her teeth and said in a low voice, so only he could hear, “Was there a need to go this far?”

The corners of Gareth’s lips lifted, making his handsome face seem softer. “Of course. I will do anything you like,”

he said coolly.

She inhaled sharply and was about to respond when a courageous employee shouted, “Mr. Wickam, are you

pursuing Ms. Elisa?”

Gareth’s eyes flicked to the speaker. “Can’t you see the battle between us?”

His words shocked both Elisa and the person that spoke.

He suddenly felt afraid!

It must have all been a façade!
