Under normal circumstances, if Joseph dared to act so arrogantly in front of Gareth, he would definitely be met with a rebuke from the latter, who would scoff and say, “Get lost!”
However, Joseph was under Winslow.
Winslow also happened to be Elisa's uncle. In the end, for Winslow's sake, Gareth suppressed the surge of anger deep down.
“Let's go.”
In the end, Gareth compromised, but not because of what Joseph said. It was Thomas' comment that swayed him: They could not have Elisa come back to find no one here.
However, before leaving, Gareth had Thomas leave an informant behind, so that he would be the first to know when Elisa returned.
In addition, he had arranged a great number of people to rescue Elisa.
In Zovain, Kaylee yelled arrogantly at the housekeeper, “Get me Old Mr. Wickam! Tell him I have something to discuss with him!”
Kaylee was causing such a ruckus that even the housekeeper could not handle her.
Upon being contacted, Darren immediately arranged for a caregiver to stay close to Julia after hearing how much trouble Kaylee had caused. Then, he hurried back.
At that time, Kaylee was tied to a chair.
As for her, she showed indifference when she saw the old man appear before her. “I regret it now. I'm not giving you three days; I'm only giving you 24 hours. If you want that old woman to live, then get Gareth to come back immediately and marry me. Otherwise, that old woman will drop dead!”
If it were not for his personal experience of witnessing Julia fall into a coma for no apparent reason, and the harsh words previously spoken by Kaylee, Darren would certainly not believe it.
Right then and there, he believed it wholeheartedly.
