Chapter 2024 Shunned
She felt somewhat disrespected.
When she turned to look at Gareth, she realized he had already left without her knowing when.
For a moment, Kaylee felt somewhat defeated, but more than that, she felt resentment. What more do I need to do to not get hated? Also, there’s Elisa, who claims not to care, yet her actions reveal otherwise.
In Kaylee’s view, Elisa was being two-faced.
Kaylee, huffing and puffing, also entered the room.
When it was time for a meal, the group had already discussed and decided on what to eat and when in
their chat.
When Elisa left the house, she called out to Kaylee, saying, “Ms. Knapp, it’s mealtime. The restaurant is just downstairs. Would you like to join?”
Kaylee was waiting for something, probably hoping to bump into Gareth as they went downstairs together. Perhaps she was hoping for a serendipitous encounter, so she turned Elisa down.
Oh! N-No need. I’m still changing clothes. You go ahead first.”
Upon hearing that, Elisa didn’t insist. She knocked on Bella’s door, and they both went downstairs together.
As for Gareth, he had already left.
When Kaylee arrived, everyone was already neatly dressed and seated at the large round table except for Vincent and Rachel.
Vincent, being assertive, took Rachel to see the doctor. They would probably be back in a while.
When Kaylee saw Gareth sitting at the table, she felt a mix of slight resentment and a touch of helplessness.
“Have a seat,” Elisa said, effectively easing Kaylee’s awkwardness.
Kaylee also realized that her behavior prior was inappropriate. She gratefully glanced at Elisa, then proceeded to choose a place to sit down.
Elisa was sitting on the left of Bella, with the right side left vacant.
The empty seat to the right belonged to Gareth.
So, without giving it a second thought, Kaylee was about to sit in that spot.
