Gareth’s face darkened upon hearing that.
As Elisa made her way to the passenger seat, Thomas interjected before she took more than two steps, “Mr. Shane’s seated in the passenger seat.”
Elisa was speechless upon hearing that.
She remained silent and walked back to Thomas, who still kept the door open for her.
Why is Vincent going to Phoenix Bridge?
She wanted an excuse to avoid sitting next to Gareth, so she tried to take the passenger seat.
Yet, it didn’t go as planned.
After getting in the car, Vincent turned around and beamed at her brightly. “Good afternoon, Ms. Benett!”
He was joking when he addressed her as ‘Ms. Benett.’ Since everyone was doing the same, the weight of ‘Ms. Benett’ was equivalent to ‘Mrs. Wickam.’
Elisa frowned and ignored him, but Vincent took delight in her response.
“Come on. We’ve known each other before this – don’t ignore me! It’s so awkward!”
Gareth also got into the car and sat right next to Elisa.
Though there was some space between them, he exuded such power that made her feel uneasy.
“Since we already know each other, do you still feel awkward?” Elisa asked coolly.
“Of course!” Vincent replied without hesitation. Before he could continue, Gareth shot a hard look at him. Upon receiving such a look, he quickly turned around and spoke to Thomas instead.
Elisa and Gareth ignored him, but he had a great time chatting with Thomas without stopping.
The car continued on until they reached a restaurant.
