Chapter 149 I Won’t Let You Suffer This Indignity!
I wouldn’t have minded her letting Elisa sit beside her. After all, there would still be another seat for me.
Now, this is just great! There’s no more seat beside her anymore!
Elisa felt awkward and wanted to get up to give away her seat. However, Julia grabbed her hand and would not let go. Then, she scoffed at Darren. “If it weren’t for the people around us, I wouldn’t have bothered about you. You can go wherever you wish.”
Meanwhile, Elisa did not know what to do.
Julia’s actions made her feel even more awkward, and she could sense Darren’s hateful glare at her. However, Julia was the star of the birthday banquet, so Elisa could not disobey her.
Gareth did not say anything but sat on Julia’s left. He turned slightly and saw Elisa’s hesitation.
He had never seen such an expression on her face ever since their divorce. Thus, he was dazed for a moment. She has changed. She has completely changed.
Meanwhile, Darren had a sullen expression. However, he did not wish to argue with Julia on her birthday, so he sat beside Gareth.
On the other hand, Rachel had not gotten to her seat. Elisa looked at her apologetically, but Rachel did not seem to mind. She met Elisa’s gaze and pointed to a distance. Then, Elisa glanced at where Rachel pointed and saw Carle and Sheena, prompting Elisa to nod with relief.
Linda also remained unseated. She felt indignant and unwilling to let the matter slide. Elisa has divorced Gareth. Why is Grandma being so nice to her? This is absurd!
Monica glanced at Linda and said, “Linda, come here and have a seat. Tonight…”
Linda wanted to shake her head and feign refusal. However, Julia suddenly interrupted Monica. “Monica, stop bothering Linda. You should let her get something to eat while you come over here and sit down.”
Monica’s expression changed slightly. “Mom…”
Everyone knew what Monica was planning, but Julia had ruined it in front of everyone.
It is all because of Elisa! It’s all her fault!
Darren’s face remained sullen, but he said calmly, “Let’s sit down for dinner first.”
Monica was startled and did not dare to speak anymore.
On the other hand, Linda was on the verge of losing her composure.
Everyone here knows I saved Gareth’s life. But why does Julia refuse to invite me to join her table?
Meanwhile, the crowd enjoyed watching the drama unfold.
They realized they could expect a good show whenever Elisa was around. Things always happen whenever she is around. Something exciting is guaranteed.
At this moment, Linda’s friend, Shirley, saw her and came over. “Linda.”
Linda saw Shirley and nodded with a smile. “Good to see you here. When did you arrive?”
“I’ve been here for a while. We haven’t seen each other for a long time. Want to come and sit with me?”
Linda finally found a way to retreat with some shred of dignity. Thus, she smiled and nodded, “Yes.”
Shirley felt indignant on Linda’s behalf, so she held Linda’s arm and whispered, “Linda, I can’t bear to watch and do nothing. They have gone overboard! How can Old Madam Wickam blatantly favor Elisa? Why don’t I put in a few words and get them to bring out yours and Elisa’s presents to compare them before everyone? Elisa’s present looked cheap. Who knows? Old Madam Wickam might favor you once she sees your present.”
Linda shook her head immediately. “No, she is my cousin. I…”
“What’s wrong with you? Why are you still defending her at this point? Did you see her help you even a little just now? She put you in a difficult spot! I don’t care. I won’t let you suffer this indignity!”
