Chapter 415 Why Is He So Uncomfortable?

Gareth’s cold gaze swept past him. “Why are you following me?”

Thomas was bewildered.

Should he not have followed?

But the next moment, it was as if he had come to his senses. In the end, he said with exasperation, “Alright, I’ll wait for you here.”

Gareth didn’t say anything. He glanced indifferently at the d*mn woman who didn’t notice him and sat in her spot. He made his way in.

As for Thomas...

He walked to the corner and sat down as deep frustration flickered across his eyes.

Mr. Wickam kept saying what he didn’t mean.

Mr. Wickam needed Thomas today, but he didn’t let Thomas follow him. Wasn’t it because he wanted Thomas to look after Ms.

Elisa?

Mr. Wickam kept saying what he didn’t mean. It was getting worse, and it was always exposed so clearly.

He had no other way. He could only observe in a corner.

...

Elisa kept her attention on Brandon. She didn’t know that such a scene between Gareth and Thomas had played out.

She looked at Brandon and said with a calm expression, “Can you let go of Anita’s son?”

Brandon’s eyes narrowed. “Is this all you want me to do?”

Elisa nodded. “Yes. That’s all. The slate will be wiped clean.”

Brandon’s lips twitched. It was as if there was a scornful smile on his face. “How can it be wiped clean?”

Elisa’s expression dulled as she looked at him, puzzled.

“What... do you mean?”

Brandon glanced at her indifferently. “Your father did me great kindness. Anita’s son doesn’t mean much to me, so the slate can’t be wiped clean. I don’t like to owe people favors. You can look for me in the future if there’s anything else.”

Elisa looked at him in surprise. Why is Brandon’s personality different from the rumors?

Perhaps Brandon sensed Elisa’s doubt. He asked with a calm expression, “Is there anything else?”

Elisa sized him up. “Don’t you need to verify my identity?”

“No.” Brandon didn’t look at her and wasn’t in the mood to speak with her any longer.

Since he already agreed, Elisa didn’t say anything else. She nodded. “Thanks.”

Brandon ignored her. She got up and left.

Everyone around them was extremely suspicious. They never thought that Elisa could stay by Brandon’s side for so long.

Brandon’s attitude toward her was even different from other women.

“What’s so special about that woman? Don’t tell me that they know each other?”

“If they knew each other, why would the man still pick up the dagger when she sat down? It was clearly to chase her away.”

Everyone started discussing fervently. Thomas didn’t walk away. He stayed at his spot and only left when he saw that Brandon didn’t have any intention of leaving.

But... when he reached the elevator, he saw Gareth walking out.

Thomas was a little surprised. “Mr. Wickam? You’re done?”

Gareth wrinkled his brows a little and ignored Thomas. He looked out.

Thomas coughed lightly and said, “Ms. Elisa has left, Mr. Wickam.”

Gareth’s expression froze. “What about him?”

“He’s still here.”

Gareth’s brows tightened and his expression was frighteningly dark.

He turned and walked back into the elevator.

Thomas knew that he was restless, so he didn’t make a sound as he followed.

They went back into a private room.

After going in and talking to other people, Thomas found out that Gareth had walked out with the excuse of looking for the washroom.

Thomas was slightly at a loss for words with Mr. Wickam.

Why couldn’t he let go? And why is he so uncomfortable about it?

If he is worried, he should protect her openly. Why does he have to think of all sorts of excuses?

Thinking about this, Gareth suddenly turned and looked at him.
