Chapter 2043 Silenced


    “Between you and me, there’s no need for such formalities. Our top priority now is to determine if it was


    an ident.” Gareth paused and looked at a particr spot outside the window. His voice suddenly


    hardened, carrying a chilling tone, “Or was it an attempted murder!”


    Something within Elisa stirred at his words.


    This is definitely an attempted murder and a premeditated act targeted at me. It’s just that


    unexpectedly, it was Rachel who got hurt in the end. If… If Rachel never wakes up in this lifetime and


    can only lie in bed in a vegetative state, how can I atone for my sins?


    Upon noticing that Elisa was feeling a bit down, Gareth took the initiative to bring up Kaylee, effectively


    diverting Elisa’s attention.


    “Why did you ask me earlier if Kaylee was around? Do you suspect that she has sneaked underwater?”


    Elisa stared at Gareth, nodding solemnly.

    Thetter raised his eyebrows slightly. “Why?”


    Gareth knew very well that Elisa was not the type to nder others without evidence, much less hold a


    grudge over past friction and make wild guesses.


    She must have clear and specific evidence to make such a statement.


    Unfortunately, she could not produce any substantial evidence this time.


    Elisa stared at Gareth, hesitating to speak several times. In the end, she decided to speak up.


    “Do you remember when we invited Grandma toe along and soak in the hot springs at Mount


    Lusetonas? Not only did she decline, but she also insisted we bring Kaylee along, remember?”


    With a hint of hesitation, Gareded. It wasn’t that he had forgotten about the matter, but he was


    pondering what his grandmother had to do with it.


    Elisa continued, “At that time, I went in with Be. Grandma’s attitude toward me was very…” She did


    not even know how to describe what was going on between them as it was unprecedented.


    “She was very distant. It’s like she didn’t want to talk to me at all. I’ve been reflecting on myself these


    past few days, wondering if I’ve done something wrong. But no matter how much I think about it, I can’t


    find anything I did wrong.”


    Elisa chose a gradual approach, not mentioning the Wyrithian immediately but first discussing Julia’s


    unusual behavior.


    Gareth nodded, signaling her to continue speaking.


    Elisa continued, “When we were about to leave that day, Maria told me that Grandma has been acting


    very differentlytely. After that, we decided to stay another night at Mount Lusetonas. I also called


    Grandma the next morning. In short, she was very… strange. She was constantly worried about Kaylee


    and only about her. Later on, I started questioning what was going on with Grandma, and I thought I


    should tell you about it. The moment I stepped out, I found Kaylee at the table, looking a little uneasy.


    She returned my facial cleanser and then walked out with me.”


    Elisa continued to reminisce, “All along the way, her gaze was always subtly fixed on me. I could sense


    it, but I just never said anything about it.”


    “So, you suspect that Kaylee did something to Grandma, and you’re worried that if you tell me the truth.


    she might harm you,” Gareth added, finishing her sentence.


    Elisa nodded, finding it enjoyable to converse with intelligent people. She merely had to hint at certain.


    aspects without having to exin everything in detail. He would naturally understand what she meant


    and the connection between the two matters.


    Gareth fell into deep thought. This isn’t a small matter and requires careful consideration.
