Chapter 363

Chapter 363 Are You with Elisa Now?

“I’m fine.” Gareth’s tone was much gentler when speaking to Linda.

Elisa lifted her brows and continued eating. At that moment, her heart did not ache the slightest bit. Instead, she found it ridiculous.

How lucky am I to be able to hear the conversation between my ex-husband and my slutty cousin? Both of them are on a call. I can’t believe I’m sitting here listening to two of them being lovey-dovey. Should I call myself a shameless home-wrecker?

Linda was relieved. “Thank god! I was so worried that you guys were injured. How did Elisa fall into the water?”

Gareth paused for a while and lifted his eyes to see Elisa eating her food with her head lowered. Elisa quickly dismissed her sarcastic look.

Gareth’s expression became more solemn as he answered calmly, “She was being stupid.”

Elisa’s hand, which was holding a spoon, froze. He doesn’t want Linda to worry about me, huh?

“But... Elisa is not a careless person. It might not be an accident. Thank god you were there, Garry. Elisa can’t swim. If you weren’t there, I’m afraid she would...”

Linda sounded as if she didn’t dare to imagine the outcome.

Elisa’s face darkened. She thinks I can’t swim.

Perceiving Elisa’s calm and indifferent look, Gareth’s expression turned colder, but his voice remained gentle. “Don’t overthink.

She’s just a troublemaker.”

Elisa lifted her head immediately and stared at Gareth speechlessly. Are there any hurtful things that he wouldn’t say?

Linda sighed in exasperation. “Garry, I know you might appear hostile on the surface, but you’re kind deep down. Although you and Elisa have divorced, you’re a dignified man, so of course, you would save her. Don’t worry, I won’t overthink. In contrast, I’m so thankful that you saved Elisa today. Thank you, Garry.”

Linda put it in such a way that it was as if Gareth had saved Elisa because of her.

Elisa smirked. Linda has changed her approach. Before this, she pretended to be an innocent girl who insisted on not ruining their relationship. Now that she has become Gareth’s partner, she’s pretending not to care about Gareth being involved with other women.

Elisa laughed in spite of herself. My cousin is too generous!

Gareth’s face darkened. On the other hand, Linda, who was waiting for Gareth’s reply, was stunned to hear the laughter. Despite the soft volume, she could tell that it was Elisa’s laughter!

Rationally, Linda knew she should have pretended to not hear it, but she couldn’t help asking, “Garry, are you with Elisa now?”

Gareth answered steadily, “No.”

“Huh?”

Linda was doubtful of his answer. Did I hear it wrongly? I clearly heard Elisa’s laughter which was filled with sarcasm!

Gareth darted a warning glare at Elisa and continued, “I’m eating. Take care of yourself and don’t worry about those unrelated people.”

Elisa nearly rolled her eyes at Gareth. However, Linda’s doubt was not dismissed. Something is fishy! I have to send someone to look into it!

She inhaled deeply and pretended to buy Gareth’s words. “Alright. Take care of yourself too, Garry. I won’t disturb you since you’re eating.” She hummed with a smile.

“Sure.” Gareth’s voice was even gentler than just now. However, his eyes turned sulkier when he observed Elisa’s unaffected look.
