Chapter 118 The Important Thing
The scowl on Linda’s face now looked worse than before, but she managed to keep her composure. “Mom, things may not have been as I thought it were.”
“What happened?” Rose knitted her brows, and her eyes flashed with concern.
Linda helplessly dragged Rose into her room and recollected everything that had happened to her.
Rose listened with a frown, “That can’t be, even if there are top secrets in the company, he shouldn’t be upset with you, since you’re seeing each other now.”
Linda drew a light breath, “I thought it was because I violated his private space, but Mom, it feels like he hates me now.”
“Don’t say that!” Rose was shocked to hear that!
After all, Rose was not there when they were dating. It was no surprise that she knew little about their relationship.
Linda pouted her lips, “There are too many coincidences this time. I’m not sure if Elisa is doing this intentionally. Every time I go out with Gareth, she would somehow be there with Will. Mom, this is not a good sign.”
“You mean…” Gloom soon took over Rose’s face.
“If she’s the same submissive housewife that she was in the past, the one who, even at the verge of divorce, couldn’t help but beg for Gareth to turn back. Perhaps Gareth doesn’t think much of it, but she has changed too much.”
Rose kept the frown on her face. It was clear that she had noticed the same thing.
Linda continued as if she was trying to analyze the whole incident like a detective.
“Elisa has kept her poise since the beginning, the way she looks at him now is different, she doesn’t look at him lovingly anymore. That hurts Gareth’s ego, after all, he is used to how she looked at him.”
“And when Garry noticed that she doesn’t care about him anymore, combined with the fact that he was upset when he saw her next to his biggest rival, Will Darcy, he completely lost it. Men are possessive creatures, and even when he doesn’t want her anymore, he cannot handle it when someone else takes her.”
Rose acknowledged her, “You’re right, coincidentally, Elisa became the spotlight of the banquet. She embarrassed him by announcing the divorce and went up against him in court, winning the case for Will. That triggered a response in Gareth.”
“That’s right!” Linda gritted her teeth. She never used to pay much attention to Elisa, only taking her as a pawn. However, … She might need to start taking her seriously now.
She continued with furrowed brows, “So, does Elisa really want to split up with him, or… Is she just trying to catch his eyes?”
“My girl, anyone could see how much Elisa loves Gareth. Do you think she’d let him go?”
“But whatever she is doing right now, even if she’s managed to grab his attention, he would hate her to his deathbed!” Linda uttered disgruntledly.
Rose shook her head, “Well, who do you think Gareth has his eyes on right now?”
Linda’s heart skipped a beat. She clenched her fists and yelped nervously, “What do I do now?”
“Sigh…” Rose heaved a sigh, “Perhaps I should tell you what I wanted to talk about, it may be helpful.”
