Chapter 327 Something Wasn’t Right
“Elisa.”
Elisa’s footsteps stopped. She had a bewildered expression.
At the time, Linda felt like something wasn’t right. She made Yara push her out.
At the other corner, Elisa had already turned around, and she looked at Gareth. “Mr. Wickam.”
Linda’s expression changed slightly. She signaled to Yara at once to stop.
Elisa turned and saw Gareth’s cold gaze. She was slightly puzzled.
“Grandma hasn’t slept in two days.”
Elisa’s expression dulled and her eyes were filled with worry. “Why?”
Gareth glanced at her coldly. “It’s all thanks to you.”
Elisa’s face paled as she looked at Gareth, baffled. “What do you mean?”
Gareth answered indifferently, “When the dinner ends, follow me back to Wickam Manor.”
Elisa’s brows furrowed tightly, but she pursed her lips and didn’t say anything in the end.
Linda, who was just around the corner, instantly had a nasty expression on her face.
Why? Why did Garry ask Elisa to go back to Wickam Manor? Why!
If Old Madam Wickam wasn’t feeling well and couldn’t sleep, they could just get a doctor. Why did Elisa have to go back with him?!
Even if Old Madam Wickam liked Elisa, Elisa and Garry were destined to be irreconcilable.
Why couldn’t Garry let her go?
Linda almost couldn’t control her expression, but when she suddenly saw Elisa walking over, she quickly got herself together and had a professional smile on her face as she looked at Elisa.
But Elisa didn’t even glance at her. She picked up her cell phone and walked to a corner.
The call went through very quickly.
The other party’s gentle yet haggard voice rang out. “Liz.”
Elisa’s brows furrowed slightly. “Have you been feeling unwell recently, Grandma? I thought you were feeling fine. Why haven’t you been able to sleep?”
Julia suddenly chuckled. “I have! I’ve been sleeping soundly every day.”
Elisa wrinkled her brows. She didn’t say anything. It was obvious she didn’t believe Julia.
Julia said cheerfully, “Have you been busy recently, girlie? Do you miss Grandma?”
“Of course. I’m coming to see you tonight.”
“Tonight?” There was bewilderment in Julia’s voice. “Tonight won’t work.”
“Huh?” Elisa thought that Grandma wasn’t feeling well.
But before she could think about it anymore, Julia said, “Tonight definitely won’t work. With your personality, you won’t stay the night even if you came. How long would you stay with an old lady like me? Since you have the next two days off, come over earlier in the day and chat with Grandma!”
“But your health…”
“I’m in great health! Who has been telling you nonsense?”
“Grandma…”
This time, before Elisa could finish, Julia interrupted her unhappily. “You don’t believe me, do you?”
“That’s not it!”
“If not, listen to me. Grandma is in great health. Furthermore, there are many people at home who are taking good care of me. If I was really feeling unwell, wouldn’t they call the doctor? Even if you come and see me, would I be able to recover?”
Elisa furrowed her brows. She still felt that something wasn’t right.
But Julia’s voice was exceptionally firm. Elisa wasn’t too sure at the time.
Before she could ponder any further, Julia said, “Your Grandpa is asking me to go to sleep. Liz, if you want to come and visit Grandma, come tomorrow!”
Elisa was speechless.
She knew that she couldn’t get any answers from Grandma, so she could only sigh. She answered respectfully, “Alright, Grandma. Rest well. I’ll come and visit you tomorrow.”
