Chapter 1518 Gareth Was Depressed

Chapter 1518 Gareth Was Depressed

Elisa explained patiently, "I have reasons for refusing to let you come here. This is not a vacation."

Rachel had been friends with Elisa for many years. She knew what Elisa meant.

Although she was angry, she knew Elisa was trying to protect her.

However, she could not help but make her feelings known.

"Liz, I'm not scared of the danger. I'm willing to sacrifice my life if it means helping you."

They had been friends for many years and helped each other countless times.

Sacrifice?

Rachel was truly fearless.

Elisa understood Rachel, but she would never let Rachel put herself at risk.

Still, she played along with her. "Sure, I won't hesitate to contact you if there's something you can do."

"I'm not falling for that! Are you saying I'm useless to you now?"

Rachel threw a tantrum.

Elisa laughed and replied, "I didn't say that. You're the one who said it."

Rachel knew Elisa did not mean it that way.

Thus, she decided to stop bothering Elisa and reminded her, "Liz, you must carefully consider the things we discussed. You must mean whatever you say and not just to appease me. You are alone in Moranta. I know your capabilities, but you still need to watch out and take care of yourself. Don't do something too risky."

"Sure, I'll heed your words and be careful, Ms. Markee," Elisa replied playfully to ease the heaviness of their conversation.

"All right, Ms. Benett. I'll accept your promise for now."

"It's late. You should get some rest. I'll return once I'm done with the matters here. We can have a good chat then."

"Okay."

They hung up after that.

Elisa put her phone away and looked up to see Gareth's stern gaze.

She could not help but frown.

Has he been watching me since I accepted the call?

Gareth pursed his lips and had something to say. However, he did not know where to begin.

In the end, Elisa looked away and moved to leave the room. Gareth saw she was about to leave and forced himself to speak.

"Liz."

His voice sounded hoarse for some reason.

Elisa considered and thought it could be because he had not spoken for a long time.

She paused and turned to him. "Yes, what's the matter?"

"I don't feel so well."

Gareth frowned slightly as he spoke.

He seemed to be in severe pain.

Seeing that, Elisa rushed to him and held his hand, placing her index and middle finger on his wrist.

Although his pulse was weak, it was not erratic or unusual.

That meant the drug residue in his body had not relapsed.

Elisa let go of his hand.

But she remembered he was injured and put his hand down carefully before covering him with a quilt.

Then, she told the truth to reassure him.

"I've checked your pulse and confirmed that the drug residue in your body has not reacted. You feel pain because of your injuries. Although I've formulated medicines that can help your wounds recover faster, they are too straining to the body. Therefore, it's best that you bear with the pain."

Gareth thought Elisa was talking to Will when she was on the phone just now.

Then, he heard the last few sentences of their conversation and realized she was talking to Rachel.

Knowing that it was not Will, his depressed feelings gradually relaxed.
