As Gareth uttered these words, his gaze shifted accordingly.
In those dark eyes, a hint of grievance lingered.
Witnessing Gareth in this condition, Elisa felt a headache creeping in. “Gareth, that's enough. I've informed you about the severity of your current state. Asking me to let you drink less alternative medicine is like telling me to abandon your treatment altogether.”
After shooting Gareth a disapproving look, she didn't want to look at him any longer.
Even though this man was a magnate in the business world, the heir to Bayswe's top family—the Wickam family—and a mighty figure in Bayswe, Elisa didn't know what to say to him then.
Despite recognizing that Gareth was fishing for sympathy and portraying himself as the victim in her presence, she couldn't shake the strong aversion she felt toward him.
“Abandon treating me? That would mean I have no shot at life. Without a chance at life, how could I express these sentiments to you now, Elisa? Those medicines are genuinely bitter. I only skipped a brief interval. For the most part, I've been consistently taking them,” Gareth murmured, his lips tightly pressed, his voice husky, and his dark eyes saturated with an enduring darkness.
His current expression portrayed a mix of grievance and bitterness.
“Hah! You know that abandoning the effort to treat you means no chance at life, so do you think you can consume less alternative medicine?” Elisa didn't want to converse with Gareth any longer. She shifted her gaze away from him.
Following that, Gareth sighed. “Really, I've had enough of drinking alternative medicine. Three meals a day, and each time a big bowl. Elisa, the main issue is that you're not there when I'm taking the medicine.”
Elisa couldn't help but mockingly laugh, “Am I supposed to be a piece of candy? Am I supposed to be sweet to you all the time? Gareth, you never used to see me this way. Why are you saying this now? Really, with you men, it's always about what you want to do or not do.”
