No Chance of Remarriage Get Lost (Elisa) novel Chapter 151

Chapter 151 The Surprises They Prepared
Julia chuckled. “Is that all? That’s nothing to be curious about. Elisa and Linda are both intelligent young ladies, so I believe they understand me well and have prepared the best gifts for me. Thus, it wouldn’t be right to compare, isn’t it?”
She felt it would be unfair to compare the gifts.
At this moment, Linda rushed to Shirley and tugged her hand. “Shirley.”
Then, Linda turned to Julia with a smile and said, “You’re right, Grandma. It is only Shirley’s idea, and it is unnecessary to compare the gifts as such. She suggested it because she was curious, so please don’t take any offense.”
Linda seemed to plead for forgiveness for Shirley’s words. In fact, many of the guests could not help but wonder if Julia had blatantly favored Elisa.
Could it be that Elisa’s gift is so bad that she is trying to save Elisa from embarrassment?
Julia felt frustrated as she watched Linda feigning innocence. However, Julia trusted Elisa and knew she would not disappoint her.
Thus, she turned to Elisa and said, “Elisa, I’m quite curious. You and Linda grew up together like sisters, so I believe that both of you think similarly. Should we bring out Linda and your gifts for everyone to see?”
All these years, Julia had always been pleased with the presents Elisa had prepared. Thus, she believed she would love Elisa’s present for this birthday too.
Linda was surprised. Old Madam Wickam is protective of Elisa. Why would she let Elisa bring out her present? Does this mean she is confident about Elisa’s present?
Linda sneered in secret. She was eager to watch Elisa being humiliated and Julia being embarrassed for siding with Elisa.
“Grandma…” Elisa was surprised, but she quickly recovered her composure. She realized Julia wanted her to win and put Linda down a few notches.
Grandma…
Elisa suddenly felt conflicted. She planned this, hoping to cheer Julia up.
However, it turned out Julia did not wish to have a birthday celebration. That was why Darren did not dare to anger Julia.
At this moment, Elisa feared she would make Julia even more depressed. What should I do if Grandma’s condition worsens?
Thus, Elisa felt immense regret and hesitation at this moment.
Gareth naturally noticed her troubled expression. He frowned slightly as he compared her to Linda and felt she had no reason to panic.
What is she thinking?
“Liz?”
Julia saw that Elisa remained silent and thought she did not wish to compete with Linda.
Rachel, who sat only two tables away from Elisa, also noticed Elisa’s hesitation. Thus, Rachel said, “Liz, since everyone thinks you and Linda think alike, let’s bring out the presents. It would cheer up Old Madam Wickam.”
Elisa still seemed conflicted. She looked at Rachel and saw her nodding encouragingly.
After a moment of hesitation, Elisa finally turned to Julia and nodded with a smile. “I was worried that my present is not as good as Linda’s and feared I would disappoint you. However, since you would like to see it, I will bring it out for you. Please know that I have prepared it with a sincere heart.”
Rachel breathed a sigh of relief upon hearing that. Thank goodness for Elisa’s quick thinking. The crowd started doubting her when she seemed hesitant and dazed just now. So if Old Madam Wickam becomes furious when Linda brings out her gift, the crowd will likely suspect Elisa is the one who schemed this.
Since Elisa said those words, it will resolve the crowd’s suspicion. From her words, she merely seems like a competitive person who is worried about being embarrassed if her gift is not good enough.
Julia chuckled. “Why would I be disappointed? Butler, bring out Elisa and Linda’s gifts. I would like to see the surprises they prepared for me.”
