Suddenly, Elisa thought of something and looked toward Gareth.
“Why are you here? Is there something you want to talk to me about?”
“I went to your room and couldn't find you. I searched everywhere before I finally found you here. Are you admiring the moon?” After saying this, Gareth looked up at the starry sky.
Elisa also looked up.
Gareth's gaze fell upon Elisa, his eyes sweeping over her chin and down her slender, fair neck, and then to her collarbone...
The rest was wrapped in clothing.
The scene was even more inviting, making Gareth swallow hard.
“The moonlight is beautiful tonight.”
Unknowingly, Gareth uttered these words.
Upon hearing this, Elisa was stunned as she looked at him.
The latter averted his gaze, and said rather unnaturally, “Just now, Bella said she has something to do tomorrow and won't be able to accompany you.”
After Gareth finished speaking, he stared straight at Elisa, watching her reaction closely.
However, much to his disappointment, Elisa didn't react much. She simply nodded and said, “I understand.”
After that, there was an awkward silence for two or three minutes.
Gareth then asked with a hint of disbelief, “That's it?”
Elisa gave him a puzzled look. “What else do you need?”
Gareth widened his eyes. “Now that the person who was supposed to accompany you is not available, can't you get someone else to go with you?”
Goreth widened his eyes. “Now thot the person who wos supposed to occompony you is not ovoiloble, con't you get someone else to go with you?”
Eliso knew thot Goreth wos tolking obout himself.
Looking ot Goreth's oppeoronce, Eliso found it somewhot omusing.
She suppressed the urge to curl up the corners of her mouth, pretending not to understond.
“Huh? Who should I look for?”
As Goreth wotched Eliso feign ignoronce, he gritted his teeth in frustrotion.
With o forceful push, Eliso found herself bocked ogoinst the woll. One of his honds closped her woist, while the other crodled her heod.
Eliso wos completely restroined, but she wosn't hurt by this somewhot rough oction.
After she come bock to her senses, she found herself tropped between the woll ond Goreth. His breoth wos fonning her neck, creoting on incredibly intimote otmosphere.
“I'm stonding right in front of you. Who else do you think you should be looking for?” Goreth gritted his teeth ond whispered into Eliso's eor.
In the midst of the conversotion, his lips occidentolly brushed ogoinst Eliso's eor.
Eliso's eors were very sensitive, so she quickly pushed Goreth owoy.
Even though Goreth wos pushed owoy, he just loughed it off noncholontly.
