No Chance of Remarriage Get Lost (Elisa) novel Chapter 2264

As Gareth's top assistant, Thomas had experienced numerous storms and challenges alongside his employer over the years. He had become skilled at handling complex situations with finesse.

However, in Gareth's presence, Thomas often felt the intense pressure of walking on eggshells, like a mouse in the shadow of a formidable cat. This tension was so palpable that Thomas, and others like him, rarely dared to meet Gareth's intense gaze directly.

Deep in his thoughts, Gareth didn't need a reminder from Thomas about returning home. He longed to go back more than anyone, haunted by the frustration of their near-misses—Elisa leaving just as he arrived.

However, with his grandparents still in Moranta, Gareth couldn't justify abandoning them to rush back.

"Get out," Gareth said tersely, his mood clearly sour.

Recognizing the volatility of the situation, Thomas wisely chose not to push any further and exited the room.

Julia entered the room shortly after and immediately sensed the heavy atmosphere. She observed Gareth's brooding expression and Thomas' tense demeanor.

"What happened?" she asked Thomas, seeking an explanation.

Knowing Gareth's foul temper, Julia knew he wouldn't be honest even if she asked.

Thomas hesitated but began to explain, "Ms. Benett and Will had a meal together, and then Mr. Wickam..." He trailed off, but Julia quickly understood the situation.

After giving Thomas a knowing look, prompting him to leave, Julia turned her attention to her grandson.

Only Julia and Gareth remained in the room.
