Chapter 102 Don’t Lower Your Standards!
Shirley glared at her angrily. “What did you eat? Your breath smells bad!”
Rachel laughed. “Alright then. We shall just wait and see.”
Elisa pulled Rachel away. She did not want to take heed to those two women. She merely observed the jade bracelet in her hand. She seemed to have taken a fancy over it.
Linda noticed Elisa’s interest in the bracelet. Grandma was closest to Elisa. They always spent time together. This must be Grandma’s liking since Elisa was so keen on it.
She smiled. “Elisa, you…”
Before she could finish speaking, Elisa handed the bracelet to the salesperson. “Please wrap this up.”
The salesperson acted quickly to Elisa’s wishes. Although she did not quite like Elisa, the commission for this bracelet was quite a sum. She went to pack the bracelet hurriedly.
Shirley glanced at Linda. “Linda, we should just leave since we are not welcomed here. Let’s go!”
Linda shook her head helplessly. She looked at Elisa and said, “Elisa, I will be having dinner with Garry tonight. Why don’t you join us? We should have a proper talk and solve our misunderstandings. Even if you both couldn’t be spouses anymore, you shouldn’t be enemies. Isn’t that right?”
Elisa snorted. Linda had always said that she wished to help her and Garry solve their misunderstanding so they could get back together. But now, she claimed that she wanted to help solve their misunderstanding so they could be friends again. She was indirectly stating that there was no chance for them to get back together again.
Since that was the case, she should grant Linda’s wish, shouldn’t she?
Rachel scoffed. Just as she wanted to rebut Linda, Elisa grabbed her hand. She smiled at Linda, “I appreciate your kindness, but I don’t think I should interrupt you and Garry dating.”
Linda’s expression changed. This good-for-nothing Elisa! So she was waiting for the moment to get her revenge!
Many people were castigating her for being a mistress in a relationship. They said that she had forced Elisa to leave. After all, Elisa and Garry had a very steady relationship in the past. Now that things have taken a sudden turn, they suspected that there must be a third person interfering with their relationship. So, many of them attacked her for being a mistress.
She could only try hard to find ways to change this situation. She must create illusions of Elisa being the third person instead. But now that things finally seemed to be slightly on her side, Elisa actually said that she and Garry were dating.
Although she often went out with Garry, she could not expose their relationship. She wanted to establish an innocent image of herself.
Elisa’s statement, however, was ruining her efforts.
Linda sighed helplessly. “Oh, Elisa. You must have been mistaken. Although Garry and I indeed had some contact with each other a few years ago, we stopped when you married him. We are just friends.”
Elisa smiled. She did not continue speaking.
Shirley, however, gritted her teeth and snarled. “Why should we continue talking to her, Linda? Let’s go!”
Linda looked at Elisa helplessly. Just as she was about to say something, the salesperson spoke to Elisa. “Ma’am, are you paying by card?”
Elisa nodded and took out her bank card.
The salesperson quickly took the card and swiped it.
Linda sneered. She did not talk anymore. She put on a sad face, pulled Rachel away, and left.
Shirley’s dissatisfaction could still be heard. “Linda! Can you stop lowering your standards? She does not deserve to be treated so kindly!”
