"You can't blame him for this; I was the one who asked him to bring me here," Gareth's lips tightened as he withdrew his gaze from Thomas.
He continued, "Grandma, do you really think it is worth going through all this trouble?" he said exasperatedly.
Julia's emotions surged as she exclaimed, "If you don't want me to go back and forth, then do as I say. Have you done it? If not, you have no right to complain about my efforts."
She glared at Gareth with her beady eyes as she reprimanded him.
Julia was exasperated with Gareth and had no intention of wasting time with Gareth.
She glanced around, not seeing Elisa anywhere, and promptly asked, "Where is Lis?"
Gareth quickly responded, "She's in the other room. I'll go get her."
Despite Gareth's frustration, Julia's presence gave him a reason to find Elisa.
Julia gave Thomas a knowing look as they arranged the full meals meticulously together.
Meanwhile, Gareth had arrived at the doorstep of Elisa's room.
Elisa sat at her computer, ready to begin a task, when there was a knock on the door.
She knew it was Gareth who had come to call her for dinner.
Elisa eagerly flung the door open, only to be surprised by the unexpected sight of Julia delivering the meal.
Elisa was met with Julia's warm smile as she stepped out of her room into the living room.
"Lis, come and have dinner. You must be famished," Julia said affectionately as her eyes gleamed.
Elisa briefly glanced at Gareth before making her way toward Julia.
