Chapter 453

Chapter 453 She’s Not Worthy of It “So... no one actually cared, and allowed her to do whatever she wanted. B-But I didn’t expect Elisa to be so capable and carry out the proposals so perfectly.”

As much as she didn’t want to admit it, it was useless to hold back anything given the current situation. Moreover, this matter was not a secret. She reckoned Gareth would have known it already.

Gareth still didn’t say a word. Panicked, Linda continued, “The requirements in the contract are clearly to deter Elisa. Everyone thought it was impossible to ask for such a great investment from Darcey Group. L-Little did I know...”

Linda pretended as if she didn’t know how to continue from there because she had already spoken all that she wanted to say.

She was waiting for Gareth’s response to see if he would agree to replace Elisa with a more experienced person.

Narrowing his eyes, Gareth turned to look at Linda. “So, you hope that I’ll take over this project, and replace Elisa with someone more experienced?”

There was a slight change in Linda’s expression. The request that she was about to raise was stuck in her throat – because both she and Elisa were young.

Although everyone in the company thought she was more experienced and important than Elisa, she had just joined the company not long ago too. So, she most likely couldn’t win their trust either. The staff merely respected her due to her status. If it wasn’t for Norman, she didn’t know how others would receive her.

There was a moment of silence in the car as Linda gazed at Gareth anxiously. Truth be told, this proposal was amazing. As much as she didn’t want to admit it, she had to agree that Elisa’s proposal was perfect, which made her green in envy.

At that moment, time seemed to have stopped in Linda’s car. On the other hand, in the van, Will looked at Elisa with a smile and asked, “Do you think Gareth will take over this proposal?”

Both of them got into the car from the other side, so Will wasn’t seated in the driver’s seat. Instead, they were sitting next to each other in the middle row.

Elisa smirked. “Who knows.” Her countenance looked calm and indifferent.

Will let out a laugh. “I bet that Gareth will accept it and ask you to be in charge. Would you believe it?”

Elisa laughed in spite of herself. “Hopefully. If that happens, our collaboration will be completely secured.”

As soon as she said that, Gareth’s voice came forth. “The proposal is great. I’m willing to take on the huge investment.”

Linda’s eyes lit up as she gazed at Gareth and gasped, “Garry, do you mean it?”

Just as she anticipated what Gareth would say next, she was hit by a bolt from the blue.

“However, the person in charge can only be Elisa.”

Linda was dumbfounded. “You...”

What did he just say? Did my ears fail me?

Gareth kept the proposal away aloofly and didn’t intend to return it to Linda. “I’ll ask Thomas to go find your father tomorrow.” He uttered.

Staggered, Linda shook her head in disbelief with her eyes widened. “Garry, a-are you trying to take revenge on Elisa? If anything goes wrong, her reputation will be ruined forever...”

Gareth sniggered. “You think I’ll use hundreds of billions to seek revenge on her?”

Elisa could guess what Gareth was going to say next even though he didn’t say it.

I bet he’s going to say, ‘She’s not worthy of it.’

Meanwhile, Will switched off the phone screen and stopped listening in on the conversation. Then, he turned slowly to look at Elisa.
