Chapter 1139
Married at First Sight
âElisa, are we considered friends now?â asked Remy as he tilted his head.
Elisa looked at him and then focused on driving again. She answered with a smile, âWeâre friends, and weâre also neighbors.â
Remy looked quietly at her side profile. She was a bright girl, and her beauty was known.
âThen can I ask you a personal question?â
âGo ahead. Iâll answer you if I think I can, but please forgive me if I canât. Everyone has the right to protect their privacy.â
Remy smiled and asked, âWhat kind of men do you like? Besides Mr. York.â
He naturally knew about Elisaâs pursuit of Zachary.
After all, he had a good relationship with both York Corporation and Zachary himself.
In addition, Elisa was very high profile when she pursued Zachary in the past.
Remy could not have not known even if he tried to.
Elisa fell silent.
âElisa, Iâm sorry. Iâm just curious. I think youâre a very nice girl. Itâs not your problem that Mr. York doesnât like you; itâs just that he had met his type of girl.â
Remy quickly apologized, thinking that he had uncovered Elisaâs scar.
âItâs okay. Iâve long given up my feelings for Zachary. Whether it was before this or now, Iâm able to face him openly. He didnât do me wrong eitherâhe never liked me, nor did he accept my feelings, let alone make any promises.
âIt was just an unrequited crush between me and Zachary, but I donât think it was wrong of me to pursue him. Itâs normal for an outstanding man to be liked by many girls, just like how a fine lady will have many pursuers.
âItâs much easier for a woman to approach a man than for a man to approach a woman. I simply pulled down the veil between us and did what many girls wouldâve done but didnât. have the courage to do so.
My actions didnât bear any fruit, but I donât regret it.â
Elisa chuckled as she continued, âI know many people were curious whether my cousin and I would become enemies because Zachary likes her instead. I donât have a good temper, so many people wondered if Iâll plot something against her.
âIn our circle, no one said it to my face, but they were waiting to watch a show. Unfortunately, I let them down.
âI was disappointed when Zachary chose Seren over me, but I also have my pride. Since he didnât choose me, I accepted it, let it go, and didnât cling to him. Itâs not like I, Elisa Stone, am going to be single forever. Zachary isnât the only good man in the world after all.
âBesides, Zachary has many shortcomings. Even Seren was hurt by him. Honestly, I think sheâs more suitable for him. If thereâs a conflict between me and Zachary, weâre definitely going to fight because weâre proud. I canât be calm, and I wonât stop until I fight it out with him.
âSeren is much calmer when she handles conflicts between them. Even at the time, when she was the angriest when Zachary confessed his identity, she managed it much better than I would have.â
At this point, Elisa tilted her head to look at Remy, who was also looking at her. Their eyes met for a while, then Elisa focused on the road ahead again. She was driving and could not be distracted.
âI think other men of the Yorks are good too, but I wonât consider them anymore. They wonât consider me as well because I pursued Zachary in the past.
âRemy, are all your brothers married? My mom said I should consider oneâs family of origin. for marriage. Your familyâs values are as good as the Yorks.â
Remy smiled and answered, âIâm happy that you fancy my brothers, but my older brothers are all married, and my younger brothers are all younger than you. I suppose you wonât like younger men.â
Only the first, second, and fourth sons of the Johnsons were married.
Elisa did not pay attention to FC Manor, so she believed whatever Remy said.
The two of them chatted and soon arrived at Wiltspoon Hotel. Elisa did not want to park her car in the basement, so she took one round in front of the hotel entrance and found a spot. She parked her car there.
When she got out of the car and saw a luxury car next to her. She froze.
It was Cliveâs car.
