Chapter 1743 Why Is He Here
Elisa extended her courtesy too. However, Will was dismayed by her remark. "Won't you help me if I don't do you a favor?"
Elisa became awkward and quickly explained, "That's not what I meant. I-I'm…just giving you my promise like you did to me."
Will was disturbed to see Elisa's nervous expression. In fact, he understood Elisa's intention but still asked the question because he was uncomfortable.
He smiled. "I understand. But, Elisa, what if I ask for… Sigh, forget about it. I know you won't agree. I should stop talking nonsense."
Will's smile turned rueful.
Elisa was unsettled to see Will's response. Moreover, Will was in his current situation because of her.
She pressed her lips and spoke hesitantly, "I know your feelings for me, Will, but I think it's better for us to be friends than lovers. Let's go. I'll send you home."
Elisa pushed Will out of the room.
Suddenly, a wild thought came to Will's mind. He clenched his fists and mustered his courage before saying, "I've been feeling unwell recently and don't feel like going home because I feel depressed in the lifeless home. Can I go to your place? If you bring me there, Gareth might stop pestering you. Meanwhile, my mother will give up too if she sees me go home with you. Don't worry. I can't do anything to you, given my current state, let alone I have no intention of doing anything to you." Will made his intention clear.
Elisa trusted Will. "Will, it's not that I don't trust you. I have no issue with bringing you to my place. You don't have to tell me all this. I have extra rooms for you too."
"I'm hoping to get acupuncture treatment from you. It'll be even better if you have some foot bath therapy. I'm quite worried about my current condition." Will continued explaining.
Elisa nodded. "Don't worry. I understand. Let's go."
With that, Elisa pushed Will to her car. While they were on the way home, Rachel called again.
"Elisa, have you seen my message?" Rachel asked.
"Yeah, but it slipped my mind because I was busy with something else. Why are you in the bar at this hour? Come to my place. I have no time to go to the bar."
Elisa frowned as she had a hunch that Rachel must have gotten into some trouble. She wouldn't go to the bar just because she was annoyed with Vincent.
"Okay. I'm coming." Rachel replied, assuming Elisa was occupied due to Gareth and thought she was with him at that moment.
She planned to give Gareth a good scolding at Elisa's place to dismiss his thoughts of pursuing Elisa and take the opportunity to vent her anger.
To her surprise, she saw the wheelchair-bound Will upon arriving at Elisa's place. Startled, she pulled Elisa aside. "Elisa, why is he here? Where's Gareth?"
Elisa was confused. "You came here because you're troubled, aren't you? And the first question you ask is about Gareth. What's on your mind?"
Rachel answered, "Nothing. I just thought you were occupied because of Gareth. When I spoke to you over the call, I had a hunch that…"
