Chapter 139 The Light of Her Life
Vincent was all smiles as he observed Gareth’s expression. As someone heedless, he had not noticed Gareth’s unusual behavior before this. It was Jeremy who reminded him to keep an eye on Gareth.
And so, he seized the chance today to tease Gareth.
Seeing that Gareth’s gaze was fixed on the screen, Vincent waited patiently.
“Miss Benett, you’ve been seeing Mr. Darcey even before the divorce. Is Mr. Darcey the reason why you divorced Mr. Wickam? Have you been two-timing Mr. Wickam?”
Gareth’s expression turned ghastly.
In the past, Elisa had always been obedient, and Gareth had thought that she was sensible. However, she immediately agreed to help Will when the latter discovered that she was Iris. Thereafter, she even proposed divorce when Will brought her to the banquet.
Gareth understood Elisa was determined to get a divorce.
He stared fixedly at Elisa’s gorgeous yet cold face on the screen.
“You can ask me questions. But I’m Iris too, and I reserve the right to sue you if your comments contain any elements of slander.”
Vincent curled his lips. “From here, your ex-wife looks domineering yet elegant. Her words are powerful. Even the reporters didn’t dare to ask reckless questions anymore, but… Oh, let’s continue watching.”
“Miss Benett, why did you and Mr. Wickam divorce?”
Gareth’s pupils dilated at once as he remained silent and gazed solemnly at the screen.
“Our love has faded.”
Gareth snorted all of a sudden when he heard the response. Ha! What a shrewd answer.
“Is it because of your cousin, Miss Linda?”
“Linda has saved Mr. Wickam’s life, so it’s natural for him to be kind to his lifesaver. Linda is a righteous woman. Despite being fond of Mr. Wickam, she has not disrupted our relationship. She even exhorted us to make up with each other. Our divorce has nothing to do with Linda at all.”
Vincent was amused. “Look, Elisa and Linda seem to have a good relationship, and it’s not as bad as you’ve described. Neither is Elisa that wicked. It doesn’t look like she’s going after Linda.”
Gareth pressed his lips and remained silent.
“Do you think Mr. Wickam will marry Miss Linda after the divorce?”
Gareth furrowed his brows as he instinctively thought that Elisa was going to make some harsh comments.
Nonetheless, his worry was unnecessary.
“Please don’t think of Linda in that way. Even before there was discord between Mr. Wickam and me, I often bumped into Mr. Wickam and Linda hanging together when I head out. Each time, Linda would try her best to exhort us to reconcile.”
“She was inconsolable when she knew Mr. Wickam and I were going to get a divorce. She blamed herself for causing our divorce. She repeatedly said that she should have stayed in a coma forever, and she had even thought of committing suicide.”
Following that, Rachel chimed in.
“Linda is too kind-hearted. Otherwise, she wouldn’t save Mr. Wickam’s life and ended up being in a vegetative state.”
Gareth’s eyes looked hostile. Is Elisa saying this to remind me that Linda was in a vegetative state because of me? No way. Their relationship is not that close and simple! Or, she thinks I’m annoying, so she deliberately used Linda’s vegetative state to stop me from pestering her? Amazing, Elisa Benett!
Thereafter, Elisa continued praising Linda.
Throughout the entire interview, she remained calm and open whenever Gareth was brought up. Nevertheless, she had not talked much about Gareth, and the topic mainly surrounded Linda.
It was as if Linda was the light of her life instead of him.
At that moment, Gareth actually hoped to remove Linda from Elisa’s mind.
