Julia was being harsher to him today. There were a few times when Gareth couldn’t hold his ground.
If it was anyone else, Gareth wouldn’t have kept quiet. In other words, no one would dare to act like Julia.
He took a breath in and calmed his feelings before he looked at Julia and said, “I’m now willing to turn over a new leaf, but Liz doesn’t want to look at me, so I hope that you can help me out, Grandma. Don’t tell me that you want to see her become someone else’s granddaughter-in-law. You must have seen how Will is treating Elisa.”
Julia’s expression changed. What Gareth said hit her sore spot. He was right. She wasn’t willing to see Liz marry another man and become someone else’s granddaughter-in-law. She would be so envious!
But…
Her grandson was so disappointing!
In an instant, Julia was at a loss for words. She opened her mouth, but she didn’t know what to say. Gareth could see the grievance in her eyes.
But… Gareth was being so unusual today. She looked at him doubtfully again, “You really like Elisa? So you were moved by her when she treated you coldly and indifferently? Why have I never noticed that you like to be in pain?”
Gareth felt dumbstruck.
By not saying anything, he seemed to have agreed implicitly.
But… how would Julia find out? Gareth didn’t say anything or talk back to her. He also didn’t want to let her know why he wanted to reconcile with Elisa.
He would never like that woman.
Even if he changed his mind about Elisa, he wouldn’t have feelings for her. It was impossible.
