Chapter 359

Chapter 359 Crossed In no time, Gareth carried Elisa into the car carefully while the latter didn’t think anything was wrong. After all, many eyes were watching them, so Gareth wouldn’t possibly drag her into the car violently.

Moreover, Julia could be watching the live stream too. If she knew Elisa fell into the water and Gareth just sat aside and did nothing, he would’ve wasted this chance.

In fact, she could had swum back on her own just now. However, she decided to continue hiding the fact that she could swim because the opponent might harm her in the same way again. It was a way of protecting herself.

After closing the car door, Gareth shot a cold glance at her. “Don’t act stupidly in front of me next time.”

Elisa’s eyes fluttered. She opened her handbag and realized that her phone was spoiled as a result of having been soaked in water.

She squeezed a smile at Gareth. “May I borrow your phone?”

Gareth wore a sarcastic smile and replied, “Remember to compensate me with a phone.”

Then, he took out his phone from his pants pocket – water was still dripping down the phone.

Elisa was tongue-tied.

Actually, Gareth could have changed in the resting lounge, but he didn’t do so and left directly as he wanted to get back to the hotel as soon as possible. The hotel was nearby.

Elisa frowned and looked at Thomas. “Mr. May, may I borrow your phone?”

“Sure.”

Upon receiving the phone from Thomas, Elisa immediately sent a message and deleted the message history before returning the phone to him.

Thereafter, there was a pin-drop silence in the car.

This time, Gareth didn’t carry Elisa. Wearing Thomas’ jacket, Elisa strode into the lift. The moment she got back to the room, she went straight into the bathroom to change.

When she came out of the bathroom, Gareth was already sitting on the couch in the living room. She could tell that he had just taken a shower too.

Gareth gazed at Elisa aloofly, “Did someone push you into the water?”

Elisa’s eyes were crystal-clear. She smiled and asked, “Do you think someone is coming after me?”

“You should know if someone pushed you.”

Elisa smirked and did not respond. Nonetheless, Gareth could tell that indeed, someone was coming after Elisa. He recalled the scene and thought Elisa wouldn’t be so careless to fall into the water herself.

Moreover, Elisa was a shrewd woman. But who would choose to attack her here? Why didn’t Elisa say anything just now?

Gareth’s eyes were filled with coldness.

Elisa probably thought it was unnecessary to tell Gareth anything. After all, their relationship was not genuine, so it would be useless to talk to Gareth about the incident. As such, she would rather remain silent and investigate the matter on her own instead of troubling Gareth.

Perceiving Elisa’s calm and nonchalant look, Gareth’s countenance became more frigid. He didn’t intend to meddle with her affair, so he went to Thomas’ room.

He looked at Thomas indifferently and asked, “What did Elisa do with your phone just now?”

Thomas let out a soft cough. After all, he had to respect Elisa’s privacy.

Gareth ordered coldly, “Find it out.”

She must have sent a message to someone to tell that person about the incident. Was it Will?

At that moment, Gareth was crossed. Thomas had no choice but to take out his phone.

Before this, Gareth used to communicate with him via text messages. He was worried that he would accidentally delete some messages, so he installed an application that would allow him to restore deleted messages.

So...
