Chapter 2049 Cold War


    Just as she was about to say something. Elisa’s eyes were fixed unwaveringly on Kaylee, eager to


    hear her next words, afraid she might miss anything.


    However, at that moment, the sound of a door opening echoed through..


    The words Kaylee wanted to say were stuck in her throat. She turned her head and locked eyes with


    Gareth, creating a somewhat awkward moment.


    Elisa was utterly annoyed. Why does he have to return at this moment? He’s interrupting my n! Well,


    this is just great. All my ns have been thrown into disarray.


    Upon seeing Gareth, Kaylee regained her sanity.-


    She realized that maybe Elisa had been trying to coax the truth out of her. For a moment, she felt a chill


    run down her spine, her back tingling with unease. This woman is truly terrifying.


    Elisa watched the change of emotions on Kaylee’s face, knowing that she hade to her senses.


    Now, there was absolutely no chance left.


    I’ve alerted the enemy! Elisa felt somewhat disheartened for a moment.


    Gareth looked at Kaylee, then nced at the mess all around. His gaze gave much food for thought.


    It seemed that Kaylee hadn’t quite figured out a reasonable exnation as she hastily uttered, “Since


    Gareth is back, I’ll take my leave first. You should rest well, Elisa.”


    She left immediately after.


    Things happened so quickly that Elisa didn’t even have time to say anything.


    Gareth watched Kaylee fleeing swiftly with a sense of caution.


    He quickly moved to Elisa’s side. Only then did he see the chaos in the ward.


    He quickly asked, “Are you all right?”


    Elisa shook her head, looking a bit crestfallen.


    An anxious look shed across Gareth’s eyes as he quickly sized up Elisa, ensuring she wasn’t hurt.


    Only then did he feel relieved.


    Looking at the mess all over the ce, he pressed the button, signaling the people below to clean it up.


    People arrived quickly. During that period, Elisa and Gareth didn’t speak to one another.


    Elisa was lying on her side, her back toward Gareth, covered with a nket. Deep down, she was


    feeling at bit resentful. If Gareth hade back a bitter, I might have already found something on


    Kaylee and wouldn’t be in such a passive position. With this, the initiative is no longer in our hands.


    After this incident, Kaylee probably won’te to see me for quite some time, let alone give anything


    away. What a blunder.


    Gareth noticed Elisa’s dissatisfaction, but considering there were people around, he remained silent.


    After patiently waiting for everyone to leave, he finally spoke. “What’s wrong? Did I do something


    wrong?” Gareth quickly thought and asked, “Or is it that you want to talk to Kaylee alone? Do you have


    any questions for her?”


    Gareth, true to his reputation as a long-standing titan of the business world, managed to hit the nail on


    the head.


    It wouldn’t be fair for Elisa to continue ming Gareth,


    When it came down to it, it was really because she didn’t think things through thoroughly, failing to


    consider that aspect.


    Elisa sat up and looked at Gareth. Under his inquisitive gaze, she nodded.


    “Yes. I deliberately provoked her to make her admit her crimes.”


    Gareth said, “But recordings made in illegal circumstances are not admissible as evidence.”


    Elisa looked at him, “How could I not know?”


    Having Rachel as a best friend was quite something. Puttingplicated regtions aside, Elisa was


    quite fluent inmonws, such as traffic rules, despite not having memorized thempletely.


    Therefore, naturally, Elisa knew that this kind of recording could not be used as evidence for conviction.Text ? by N0ve/lDrama.Org.
