If Gareth genuinely cared and wanted to please Julia, why didn't he heed her objection and refrain from divorcing Elisa? Why did he insist on divorcing her anyway?
Gareth remained silent. Elisa's words cut through him like a knife, reminding him of his mistake.
Julia's fondness for Elisa was evident, and Gareth had witnessed their interactions firsthand, getting to know Elisa's true nature.
Elisa wasn't an irredeemable and malicious woman.
So, there must have been some misinformation from Linda. Their marriage...
Observing Gareth's silence, Elisa found it somewhat amusing yet ironic. "Gareth, you're not seriously considering remarrying me, are you?"
Gareth's wandering thoughts were brought back by Elisa's words, and he caught her expression. Elisa's indifference towards remarriage was unmistakable.
Gareth was aware that Elisa thought it was a joke. But that was how she perceived it, not him!
During their three-year marriage, Gareth had never made any effort to express his affection towards her. Following their divorce, Elisa no longer believed in the possibility of Gareth's feelings changing overnight.
Men could be despicable because they often realize their regrets only after losing something. Since their divorce, Elisa had stopped underestimating herself. She felt a newfound sense of liberation.
Only a fool would consider remarrying him!
Gareth's expression turned cold and severe.
Apparently, Elisa could sense the shift in his emotions through his demeanor. Finally, he parted his tightly pressed lips. With unwavering conviction, he began, "Elisa, it's because I didn't truly understand you before, but now I've come to realize..."
Before Gareth could finish his sentence, Elisa interjected, her tone dripping with coldness.
