Elisa was speechless when she heard that.
Grandma once said that she wouldn't force us. Yet, now she's privately asking Gareth to pursue me!
Gareth looked at her indifferently. "I know."
"What do you know? When are you visiting her?" Julia asked regrettably. "I was already sleeping, but I had a nightmare about Elisa avoiding you completely. In the dream, she was very annoyed by you and despised you greatly. I don't understand how you can be so useless in relationships; you are so successful in running a business, yet you are a nobody in front of Elisa!"
Elisa remained speechless while Gareth's face darkened further.
His lips were pressed into a grim line as he remained silent. The speaker was still on, and he didn't seem to have any intentions of turning it off.
"Hey, say something! When are you going to visit her? If you lose such a good woman, I'll disinherit you! Oh, how infuriating!"
Julia clenched her phone tightly. Initially, she was lying on her bed. She grew more agitated whenever the topic was brought up, so she sat up to scold him.
Gareth pursed his lips before replying slowly, "I'm at her place now."
There was a brief silence before she exploded, "You rascal! Have you started telling lies? Is this how you talk to your grandmother now?"
"I'm serious," Gareth replied calmly. He was starting to feel better listening to Julia's reactions.
"Do you think I'll believe you? It takes some time for you to reach Elisa's place!" Julia let out a snort. "You'd better pay her a visit tomorrow, or you'll have to explain to me!"
"I said it just now – I'm already at her place now," he repeated patiently.
Elisa felt a sense of foreboding premonition.
Sure enough, Julia snorted out laughing from her anger.
