Elisa looked up immediately but did not know what to say.
Then, Gareth came to her sullenly and helped her open the door.
Julia saw Elisa standing stunned at her spot and gave her a little push. “Silly child, why are you in a daze? Go on and get into the car!”
Elisa sighed softly and smiled. “Grandma, it’s getting late. You should go back into the house. We will be heading home now.”
Once Julia returned to the house, Elisa could walk away and hail a taxi.
It seems I have to buy a car as soon as possible.
Meanwhile, Gareth remained petulant and did not speak.
One could not help but wonder if Julia could read Elisa’s intention. She chuckled and said, “I will go in once you leave. Quick, get into the car.”
Elisa was still a little hesitant, but Gareth had lost all patience and said gruffly, “Get in the car!”
Thus, Elisa had no choice but to get into the car. Gareth closed the door and turned to Julia, “You should return to the house.”
Julia frowned and said impatiently, “Enough with the nonsense. Get into the car!”
Gareth was rendered speechless.
Why does Grandma treat me differently?
Aren’t I her grandson?
Gareth did not say anything. He got into the car and drove away.
It was so quiet inside the car that they could hear their breathing sounds.
Elisa did not wish to talk to him. Once the car made a turn and went out of Julia’s view, Elisa said, “Stop the car.”
Her voice sounded like a command, prompting Gareth to scoff and said, “Where are you rushing off to? Are you running off to meet another man?”
Elisa sneered. “Why aren’t you stopping the car? Don’t tell me you are reluctant to divorce and want to bring me home.”
Screech!
The car stopped abruptly.
