Mr. Carrerra had no regard for Gareth at all. His response had challenged Gareth's limits for his patience.
The taunting smile playing on his lips was enough to infuriate Gareth, who wanted to punch him, but Elisa held him back and shook her head at him.
"Don't be rash!" she cautioned him in a low voice.
It seems like he's alone, but we don't know if his people are hidden around us. There are only two of us here against him. If we start a fight, we can't win against them. On top of that, Gareth is still injured. I can't let his condition worsen!
Gareth nodded at her, but the worry in his eyes was apparent. At the same time, he motioned for her to get going first. Undoubtedly, she didn't listen to him.
She couldn't possibly allow herself to leave Gareth alone to start a fight. If we were to leave, we would do it together.
"Nothing at all. Be it in Moranta or Bayswe, and you are an outsider. Since you don't have any good reasons to meet me, we'll get going," Elisa replied coolly.
With that, she took Gareth's hand and left.
Since there were in public, Mr. Carrerra couldn't do anything to them.
Still, he followed them. Looking at the bag of groceries Elisa was carrying, he goaded her playfully, "Come on, Elisa. I'm a guest here. Don't you want to be my host?"
It was obvious that he was planning on sticking around shamelessly.
