Chapter 1664 I''m Not in the Mood to y
Elisa fixed her gaze on Gareth, remaining silent.
Gareth recalled Thomas'' advice on feigning vulnerability before Elisa, but he wasn''t sure how to
execute it. He was worried that she would see through his facade if he suddenlyined about pain
from his injuries.
But if he disregarded Thomas'' suggestion, his visit would be in vain...
Caught in a mental struggle, Gareth hesitated. However, Elisa broke the silence, asking, "Mr. Wickam,
is there something else you wanted to say?"
"Yes!"
Elisa''s question provided an opening for Gareth to proceed. He continued, "When I woke up, I had
difficulty breathing and felt a heaviness in my chest."

"Is that so?" Elisa maintained a skeptical expression.
Gareth nodded, maintaining hisposure as he looked Elisa in the eyes, "Of course! If you don''t
believe me, you can check for yourself."
Once bitten, twice shy. Elisa had learned her lesson and wouldn''t fall for Gareth''s act again, especially
not now that he was fully conscious and not in a state of confusion or weakness.
She smirked, "Well, Mr. Wickam, when you scolded those men earlier, you sounded perfectly
composed and strong. You didn''t sound like someone struggling with health issues. You know what…
you don''t have to pretend, for my sake. If you''re looking for someone of wife material which will also
appease your grandmother, then go ahead and advertise for a bride based on her preferences."
"But there''s only one Elisa Bt in this world. You''re exceptional in medicine and have everything my
grandmother loves. Plus, starting from scratch with someone else would be a waste of time."
Gareth pursed his lips, realizing Elisa wasn''t falling for his act.
After all, he couldn''t bring himself to act stubborn and shameless.
Elisa countered, "If that''s the case, go ahead and stick to your requirements and search for a bride.
There are countless women in this city, and I''m sure you''lle across at least a few who meet your
standards."
"By the way, let me rify something. We never had the level of familiarity that you im. Don''t speak
like we went through a long adjustment period and getting to know each other. We didn''t!"
"Mr. Wickam, if you don''t have any other important matters, please leave. I have a lot of things to
attend to."
Elisa had run out of patience and didn''t want to continue the conversation with him.
Gareth had put in the effort toe here, and leaving without aplishing anything made him
reluctant.
He approached her and suggested, "Let''s find other partners since those morons are unwilling to
cooperate with you. We''ll head to Foris City tomorrow, and my cousin''s wedding is just around the
corner."
"Didn''t Grandma say there''s still over a month left?" Elisa frowned, recalling Julia''s mention of the
wedding date.
Elisa didn''t want to be fooled by Gareth again.
"Meet and have a good time with the coborators; time will fly by. This time, you can be assured that
those three won''t be around to bother you."
Gareth reassured her, trying to convince her.
Elisa shook her head. "Fine. Let me know when it''s time to go to Foris City, but count me out on the
''fun'' part. I''m not in the mood for parties or enjoyment."
She had many things to handle, and there had been no progress on her mother''s side. Thinking of this,
Elisa remembered her uncle Winslow.
Winslow had always treated her well, and since her return to the country, she had been so busy that
she hadn''t even had time to call him.
"If you don''t want to party and have fun, let''s meet with the coborators and attend the wedding..."
"But there aren''t that many coborators to meet, right?"
Although Gareth was there to support her with the coboration, but as Elisa had mentioned, there
weren''t many coborators to meet.
