Chapter 248 The Biggest Idiots
Elisa frowned slightly.
Meanwhile, Will’s heart trembled for a moment. Although she had held his arm when they attended a banquet together, he wore a suit then. It was not a direct skin contact as this moment.
He had never touched another woman like this. Thus, his heartbeat quickened.
On the other hand, Elisa seemed annoyed. “Mr. Darcey.”
She did not have to say anything else. Anyone would know what she meant.
Will did not let her go but looked away. Somehow, he was a little flustered and could not meet her gaze. “I’ll send you to your law firm.”
After that, he let go of her wrist, locked the car doors, and began to drive.
He appeared calm throughout the drive. No one but him knew how stiff and unnatural he was at this moment.
Elisa did not notice his unusual demeanor. She muttered softly, “I wonder if the news of you coming to meet me will soon be trending on Twitter.”
Will answered immediately, “No, it won’t.”
Elisa was a little surprised. She glanced at him but remained silent.
Will continued in a gentle tone, “It’s normal that you don’t believe me. I understand. But time will reveal my sincerity.”
“There is a saying that the heart is deceitful above all things.” Elisa did not hesitate to retort and was rewarded with a rare frown on Will’s face. She smiled and continued, “Mr. Darcey, we are not close and will never be. If you have any lawsuit in the future, I can represent you as long as I am free and it does not involve something corrupt or immoral. Other than that, I hope you will stop getting involved in my private life. It is bothering me.”
Will chuckled and said, “In that case, I won’t appear before you as Will Darcey anymore.”
Elisa frowned. He understood what I said, but why does he insist on going against Wickam Group and using me to infuriate them?
Is he looking down on Wickam Group or does he have nothing better to do?
Since Elisa pursed her lips and would not speak, Will stopped pressing the matter. He knew when to exercise restraint. Furthermore, he could bring it up again next time.
Once they arrived at the law firm, Will looked at Elisa calmly and said, “Elisa, since you didn’t bring your car here, would you like me to pick you up after work? If you don’t like seeing me, I can send my driver here.”
Elisa answered immediately, “My place is on Charli’s way home. She can send me back.”
Will sighed. “Alright, see you next time.”
Elisa pursed her lips. In the end, she did not tell him that they should never meet again. She knew it would be pointless.
Then, she got out of the car and went to her office straightaway.
Albert and the others noticed Elisa, but no one dared to say anything as soon as they saw her gloomy expression.
Jennifer blinked and asked curiously, “She seems like she’s in a bad mood. Could it be due to what happened yesterday?”
“Who would be in a good mood if Old Mr. Wickam criticized them like that?” Albert glanced at her. “Get back to your work. You don’t want to anger the boss and get yourself fired.”
“Hmph! Boss is not as petty as you!” Jennifer could not resist grumbling. She was still angry with Albert after saying that.
Albert smirked. “How am I petty? I’m a generous man! Ask anyone, and they will tell you how generous I am!”
“I think they will say you’re the biggest idiot.”
As the others joked around, Elisa had already reached her office. Charli was already there. She turned around and saw Elisa’s strange expression.
