At the same time, Gareth was not pleased with Mr. Lynch, believing that Mr. Lynch was trying to take advantage of Elisa.
Mr. Lynch's face darkened when he heard Gareth's firm refusal.
However, he remained kneeling. His eyes, filled with emotion, were still fixed on Elisa.
Although Gareth interrupted her, it was because he was concerned for her.
She helped the Lynch family with the goal of bringing down Norman.
Therefore, she needed them to be healthy and well so that they could go to court.
He would be in a better state to go against Norman if his body and mind were at ease.
But adopting Stacy…
It wasn't what she had thought about before.
"You don't have to worry about that. I told you before that you just need to focus on recovering while I take care of Stacy. If you're worried, I can give you some money and help you find a job once everything is over."
She was confident that Mr. Lynch would get better.
If he recovered, he wouldn't have to worry about being unable to take care of Stacy anymore.
She also wouldn't have to adopt her or get involved in their family's affairs.
"Ms. Benett, I know you have everything planned, but I'm still worried about Norman. He's ruthless, and he'll never let me go. He tried to take everything from me, including my wife. He even had her killed. He thought he could get away with it because I had nothing on him, but I had been recording our conversations all along. Even with your help this time, I'm still uneasy. Ms. Benett, I beg you to help me care for Stacy. Please."
He started to bow down to her as he spoke.
A loud thud echoed through the room when his head hit the floor.
Elisa looked at him silently, her face growing more serious.
Gareth was growing increasingly annoyed as the scene unfolded before him.
