Chapter 2041 Reminiscence.


    Gareth also realized he had crossed the line and smiled sheepishly as he pulled his hand back.


    The atmosphere suddenly became somewhat awkward.


    “You…”


    “I…”


    Either both of them would remain silent, or they would speak at the same time. It was unclear where


    this unspoken understanding between them came from.


    The two exchanged a nce and grinned.


    Gareth spoke up. “You go first.”


    Elisa shook her head. “You first.”


    Gareth refused, insisting, “I don’t have much to say. It’s just that the atmosphere was awkward earlier,


    so I wanted to say a few words to lighten the mood. Your matter is more important.”


    Upon hearing that, Elisa stopped holding back and asked, “I wanted to ask, how long was I


    unconscious? What exactly happened on the day at Mount Lusetonas? I only remember drowning. I


    don’t know anything about what happened after that. I didn’t even know that Rachel came to rescue


    me.”


    With a sigh, Gareth began to answer her questions one by one.


    “You’ve been unconscious for three days and two nights. Be and I have been taking turns to stay by


    your side, hoping to be there when you wake up. Rachel has also been in the intensive care unit all thisRêAdt??St chapters at Novel(D)ra/ma.Org Only


    time.” Gareth appeared concerned that Elisa might worry, so he added reassuringly, “But you need not


    worry. Vincent is watching over Rachel. Nothing will go wrong.


    Elisa nodded, a trace of sorrow inevitably crossing her eyes.


    Gareth continued, “At Mount Lusetonas, I came out after changing my clothes, only to see Be


    standing anxiously on the shore, calling for help. The second she saw me, she immediately asked me


    to rescue you and Rachel, saying that you two had fallen into the water. Vincent hade out with me


    and promptly jumped into the water. We each saved one of you.”


    Elisa’s expression remained somber throughout. In truth, Gareth did not wish to stir up her unpleasant


    memories. However, there were certain things that he could not understand, and he needed her to


    rify- them.


    “When Rachel was pulled from the water, her breathing was already very faint. Vincent performed CPR


    on the spot and immediately called an ambnce. At the hospital, the doctor said that your brain was


    severely deprived of oxygen, and you might not wake up. Even if you did, you might be mentally


    impaired. As for Rachel, it’s possible because of how much water was in her lungs…” Gareth seemed


    tock the courage to continue, not wanting to upset Elisa further.


    Elisa had already learned about the cruel possibility from Be. She did not probe further, merely


    inquiring, “Where was Kaylee at that time?”


    Kaylee was never mentioned once in the entire story.


    This was something that Elisa found extremely suspicious.


    Ultimately, she still had doubts about Kaylee.


    Gareth did not understand why Elisa suddenly asked about Kaylee and said truthfully, “The situation


    was very chaotic at the time, and I wasn’t paying attention. It seemed… it seemed like she wasn’t


    among the crowd.”


    After pondering for a moment, he gave her a definitive answer. “Indeed, she wasn’t there.”


    Elisa did not doubt what Gareth said, for he typically would not speak with such certainty.


    He would not use definitivenguage unless he was absolutely certain. Essentially, this was how


    people in high society conducted themselves.


    They would refrain from speaking too confidently about matters they were unsure about to avoid


    embarrassmentter.


    Moreover, she was aware of Gareth’s photographic memory.


    He could roughly remember any contact with just a nce, let alone recall the presence of a person in


    a particr setting. So naturally, he would not make a mistake.
