Chapter 1933 Reconciliation


    The owner brought a tter of perfectly grilled barbecue to their table,den with a variety of delights


    from eggnt and bell peppers to potatoes,mb skewers, and bacon.


    Elisa deftly retrieved two disposable forks, offering one to Gareth.


    He epted it with some hesitation, his eyes fixed on Elisa, who e nodded toward the barbecue tter.


    “Give it a try! This is the barbecue ce Rachel and I found. It''s quite clean and not as greasy as some


    other ces.”


    Elisa''s insistence on cleaning the table was driven by her concern for Gareth''sfort.


    Upon hearing her words, he nced around and noticed the tidy and weing atmosphere.


    Unlike the greasy food stalls he remembered, this cecked the half-naked men and rowdy patrons


    engaged in drinking games. It was indeed cleaner and more pleasant.


    Gareth nodded appreciatively and picked up a piece of bacon, savoring it.


    The bacon, expertly grilled by a skilled chef, offered a unique and delicious vor.


    Gareth enjoyed the meal, and this seemed to please Elisa. They relished their food,plemented by


    a bit of wine.

    It wasn''t the fancy red wine from a high-end hotel, but rather a bottle of inexpensive yet satisfying beer,


    spicy and invigorating.


    For Elisa, the experience brought back memories of her university days.


    Surprisingly, Gareth, who had never tried this type of drink before, didn''t resist it.


    Elisa observed this with care, taking note of his reaction.


    Time seemed to stretch on during this meal, and eventually, Elisa found herself inebriated.


    Gareth gazed at her as she mumbled in her sleep at the table, his expression tender and affectionate.


    He gently brushed a strand of hair from her cheek, speaking softly as if talking to himself. “When will


    you be able to fully ept me?”


    After paying the bill, he lifted Elisa and carried her into a taxi.


    His own car would require Thomas to be awakened and summoned to drive it home, serving as a form


    of payback to Thomas for theckluster date idea.


    Despite the freezing weather, Thomas had little choice but to oblige withoutint.


    Upon arriving home, the taxi couldn''t drive into the residential area.


    Gareth opted to carry Elisa as he proceeded toward the residential area, his precious cargo on his


    back. With each step, he moved forward with the determination to cherish this moment forever.


    Laying on his back, the inebriated Elisa was a stark contrast to her usual sober self.


    Now, she was lively and talkative, her words flowing without pause.


    Her favorite topics were her university experiences with Rachel, andter on, her marriage to Gareth.


    “Did you know? Back when Rachel and I were in university, we tried every delicious food around


    campus. But then... then I got married.”


    Gareth inquired with a smile, “And what about after marriage?”


    Elisa''s demeanor suddenly shifted to agitation. “After marriage? There''s no happiness after marriage at


    all! I truly regret it.”


    Even though he knew Elisa was intoxicated, Gareth chose to apologize.


    “I''m sorry...”


    Just as he thought he wouldn''t receive a response, Elisa, leaning on his shoulder, whispered, “It''s


    okay.”


    Gareth''s heart skipped a beat.


    Elisa appeared drunk, yet somehow, she remained conscious. She continued, “I''m very happy today.


    Thank you.”


    He paused for a moment and, under the moonlight''s gentle glow, replied, “You''re wee.”


    With that, Gareth carried Elisa on his back all the way home.
