After all, it was her payback. But she didn’t want to tell Rachel why she exacted revenge on Gareth as it was embarrassing. Despite her wishes, she still did not enjoy being teased for a misunderstanding.
Rachel didn’t second guess Elisa. Yet, she uttered in bewilderment, “Then… why did he do that? There were three of you in the video. Although it has no sound, he looked busy picking the roses.”
“Nothing out of the ordinary. It’s just because Grandma wants us to reconcile.” At that moment, Elisa could only tell Rachel it was grandma’s wish.
Actually…
Grandma intended to repair her bad reputation, but little did she know that it was Elisa’s doing that she reaped a bad reputation.
Elisa couldn’t explain to Rachel extensively.
Rachel furrowed her eyebrows, “But something seems off here?”
Elisa kept quiet.
Rachel said again, “Why did Gareth agree to pick roses for you?”
Elisa faked a chuckle, “How do you know he picked those roses for me and not someone else? Grandma’s narrative is misleading. Those roses belong to Grandpa and Grandma. They especially asked people to plant the roses in Wickam Manor.”
“Sounds legit…” Rachel sensed that Elisa’s explanation was dubious, but she also thought Elisa was right.
Elisa reminded Rachel, “Stop subscribing to scandals and rumors like this. They are baseless and a sheer fabrication of the truth.”
Rachel hummed and said nothing else.
Satisfied with Rachel’s discontinued inquiries, Elisa smiled and said, “I still have work to do. Come to my house tonight, and I’ll make something for you to eat.”
“Wow! Seriously?!”
“You bet.”
Rachel was thrilled!
