Chapter 278 Distinguish Personal and Work Affairs
After the woman got out of the car, she didn’t walk in Gareth’s direction. Instead, she walked to the back, and her delicate brows furrowed slightly. Gareth felt like something was wrong, so he got out of the car.
He realized that the car behind her was going too fast. After it crashed into her, she only crashed into him because of inertia.
The owner of the third car had gotten out of his car. With one look, he was a greasy, middle-aged man with a big belly. Seeing Elisa’s pretty appearance, the rage he was mulling over suddenly disappeared. He smiled gently. “So, it was a pretty lady who was driving. It’s only understandable that you would brake so suddenly.”
Elisa wrinkled her brows. “So I’m at fault for your tailgating?”
“It’s clear that you slid and crashed into my car after crashing into the car in front of you. You see, my car and the car in front of you are of considerable cost. Even if you sell your little BMW, it’s not enough to compensate us. Why don’t you come with me, and I’ll pay for all your expenses this time?”
Gareth’s expression became unbelievably sharp in an instant as he directed it straight at the man. The middle-aged man suddenly shivered, and his gaze fell unconsciously on Gareth. When the man realized who Gareth was, his expression changed. The next instant, he respectfully walked over while flattering Gareth. “Wow! What a coincidence that I met you here, Mr. Wickam. This is the greatest achievement of my lifetime! I’m Jasper Marshall from Hythe Group.”
Elisa’s figure froze in an instant. Mr. Wickam?
She looked over subconsciously. Astonishment streaked across her eyes when she saw that it was Gareth.
She had been behind the black car, but she didn’t take notice of the car plate. When she looked over again, it really was his car.
Elisa was a little dazed. Was this an ill-fated relationship?
A never-ending ill-fated relationship?
Gareth stared at the man, ignoring his intentions. His pointed glance was as sharp as a blade. In a flash, he looked at Elisa as obvious impatience flickered across his eyes.
The skirt she was wearing wasn’t from him.
Elisa was still feeling a little awkward from his kiss that day. She averted her eyes as she took out her cell phone to call the police. But before she could make the call, she suddenly noticed that a traffic police officer nearby was already making his way over. Elisa immediately spoke up. “Hello, officer. I have a dashcam. Please help us determine who is at fault.”
The traffic police officer nodded in agreement. After checking, he immediately assigned blame.
Jasper was fully to blame.
Dark malice streaked across the man’s eyes. He looked unconsciously at Elisa, whose shapely body couldn’t be hidden. He would make this woman his own one day.
There wasn’t a woman he couldn’t conquer!
But he sensed a murderous gaze from his side. The man thought that Gareth was impatient, so he said at once, “Alright, alright. I’ll admit that I’m at fault.”
If it wasn’t for Gareth, he would have thought of a way to make Elisa admit fault because, from how he saw it, Elisa couldn’t afford to compensate them.
Soon, the cars were shifted to one side so the insurance company could tow them away.
Elisa was about to get a cab when her cell phone rang. She answered the call.
“Where are you?” Carle’s voice sounded exceptionally gentle.
Elisa didn’t answer. She asked, “Is something wrong?”
“Semoa Group is in some trouble for a recent case. Can I talk about it with you?”
Elisa’s eyes shook a little. Although she was avoiding Carle, it didn’t mean that she couldn’t distinguish her personal and work affairs.
