No Chance of Remarriage Get Lost (Elisa) novel Chapter 1962

As neither Elisa nor Gareth talked about it, an eerie silence fell between them.

Even though they had just escaped from the brink of death, they became distant again.

Elisa didn't understand why, but being as proud as she was, she wouldn't ask.

The air around seemed to have solidified.

An awkward atmosphere spread between them. Gareth tried to initiate conversation several times, but each attempt was cut short by her responses of “Mm,” “Oh,” and “Sure.”

Just at that moment, Rachel knocked on the door and came in.

With the addition of a third person, the atmosphere in the room finally improved.

With her hands behind her back, Rachel cautiously stepped in, sensing a somewhat off atmosphere between the two.

Tensions were running high.

Upon seeing Rachel arrive, Gareth made room for her to sit down.

She looked at him, whose chin was covered in stubble, and abruptly felt soft-hearted. “You should go take a shower and clean up. We're leaving this afternoon anyway. You should also take some time to rest.”

Gareth remained still, glancing at Elisa with hopeful eyes.

He was likely hoping for some kind of reaction from her, whether it was being moved or something else.

Alas, Elisa continued to bow her head, engrossed in her food and disregarding everything. It was as if she didn't care about what they were discussing at all.

With a deep sigh, Gareth told Rachel about some things to take note of, then left the room while constantly looking back.

After he left, Rachel chuckled and asked, “What happened? I heard that the two of you were crying in each other's arms at the scene. Now that you're both back safe and sound, why have you two started giving each other the cold shoulder instead?”

In an instant, Elisa snapped back to reality.
