No Chance of Remarriage Get Lost (Elisa) novel Chapter 1857

Chapter 1857 Between You and Me

This time, Gareth wasn't up for complying with Elisa's request to slow down; instead, he pressed down on the gas pedal, picking up speed.

He kept going until they reached the pier.

Elisa glanced at him, her lips sealed. She didn't immediately step out of the car, but her frustration was palpable.

Observing Elisa's pouty face, Gareth couldn't help but find it amusing. He was on the verge of tucking the hair strands behind her ear, but she skillfully evaded his reach.

Gareth's arm hung there for a beat, awkwardly suspended.

He retracted it with a sulky expression and said apologetically, "I noticed some folks were arriving. If you had left the car partway, it might've seemed suspicious. It would be better if we both get out together when we reach the pier. That way, it won't attract too much attention, and no one will start unnecessary probing, don't you think?"

Elisa remained silent, but her demeanor had softened a bit; there was a hint of warmth in her expression.

With the chilly tension dissipated, Elisa unbuckled her seatbelt and stepped out of the car.

Gareth followed suit.

Even though it was still early, a few had already arrived.

They were hanging around and passing the time nearby. As soon as they saw Elisa, they excitedly huddled around her and chatted animatedly.

"Ah, Ms. Benett, you're here! I can't believe that we are going on this fancy cruise!"

This tima, Garath wasn't up for complying with Elisa's raquast to slow down; instaad, ha prassad down on tha gas padal, picking up spaad.

Ha ratractad it with a sulky axprassion and said apologatically, "I noticad soma folks wara arriving. If you had laft tha car partway, it might'va saamad suspicious. It would ba battar if wa both gat out togathar whan wa raach tha piar. That way, it won't attract too much attantion, and no ona will start unnacassary probing, don't you think?"

"Ah, Ms. Banatt, you'ra hara! I can't baliava that wa ara going on this fancy cruisa!"

"You might find it hard to believe, but this is my first time on such a luxurious cruise; it looks awe-inspiring." The girl who spoke sounded a bit shy.

The girl next to her nodded in agreement.

"Yeah, thanks to Ms. Benett, we get to experience it for the first time!"

The girls playfully bantered back and forth, making Elisa uneasy.

And to top it off, she had just stepped out of the car, and her stomach, which had settled after its earlier upset, was starting to act up again.

The girls' animated chatter was starting to make Elisa feel queasy.

Sensing her discomfort, Gareth stepped up to help her out.

Using his height advantage, he interjected and skillfully guided Elisa out of the crowd.

The girls looked at Gareth, perplexed.
