Chapter 1758 Mustn’t Lose His Pride
Gareth remained silent. Bitterness welled up in his heart.
He couldn't believe Elisa thought his honest, heartfelt words were out of character.
But how could he deny it?
All he needed to do was follow Vincent's and Jeremy's advice. Gareth believed staying by her side, and their history as husband and wife would give him the necessary advantage over Will.
"Fine." Gareth nodded.
With his agreement, Elisa turned and headed to the kitchen.
Meanwhile, Will was being dragged away against his will. He started to fight back once he was in the car. Ignoring all of them, Will turned his wheelchair and rolled towards the door.
Even if it meant falling and hurting himself…
Mrs. Darcey glared at his antics. "You maintained your pride while Elisa was around. And now you're throwing everything aside to go back to her. Do you think your pride will remain intact after everything?"
Before Will could say anything, Mrs. Darcey continued to taunt him, "Look at the pitiful state you're in, Will!"
Her words were like a stab in the heart.
She was right. He was in a pitiful state. He was confined in a wheelchair. Surrounded by so many bodyguards, he could do nothing but submit.
In his current state, there was no way he was on par with his love rival. He could deny it all he wanted. As long as he was stuck in this wheelchair, he was inferior.
And now, even his own mother was ridiculing him. Will was ladened with sadness and self-pity.
"I was doing fine with her. Why did you have to interfere? You call me pitiful, but you're the one who made me this way!"
Will laughed bitterly. He compared himself stuck in a wheelchair to Gareth, tall and disdainful.
He remembered when Gareth brought up he and Elisa were husband and wife. Just that alone, Gareth would always have a special place in Elisa's heart.
Gareth must be with Elisa right now. Going back there would only be humiliating!
Will experienced a sorrow that he had never felt before.
And his mother?
She completely disagreed with Will. "What do you mean you were doing just fine?" She snorted. "You and Elisa aren't in a relationship. She is still entangled with her ex-husband. What does that make you, Will? Wake up! I'm not interfering. Can't you see I'm trying to guide you back to the right path?"
Mrs. Darcey grew agitated when she saw Will in anguish.
Of all people, why did he need to fall for Elisa, a divorcee?! There was nothing wrong with being divorced. But Gareth and Elisa were still clinging on to each other.
Losing control of his emotions, Will screamed at her, "I don't need you to guide me back to the right path. I'm not a child. I know what I'm doing. Can you stop trying to interfere?"
"Fine! I won't interfere. I'll sit by and watch Elisa brainwash you. Will, even if Elisa is the only one capable of healing your legs. Can't you treat her as a doctor? Do you really need to…"
"Stop! I don't want to listen to this. We're going home."
Will cut his mother off. His eyes were like shards of ice. He knew he had little choice now that he was in the car.
Even if he did not understand before, he understood now.
He mustn't lose his dignity around Elisa!
