Chapter 1564 Poison
Her crystal clear eyes stared at Elisa.
Stacy saw the bag of herbs in Elisa's hand.
"Listen carefully, Stacy. These are all medicinal herbs for your father. You'll need to boil them in water and feed them to your father three times a day. Make sure he drinks it all."
Elisa labeled the herbs carefully and put them somewhere the girl could reach.
"Can you read?"
Stacy nodded.
She carefully memorized the instructions and the names of the herbs.
It was getting late, and darkness was settling in.
Elisa finished writing up the instructions for the herbal concoction and walked out of the house into the alley.
People were bustling about on the main street, but Elisa was heavy with worry. She knew she would have to visit a few more times to ensure everything was going alright with Stacy's father.
Back at the hotel, Elisa organized the herbs she had purchased for herself.
She rubbed her shoulders, thinking about what she could do to make Stacy's life easier.
Elisa could not allow Stacy's father to continue staying in that condition.
He would need to have an operation, or his cough will worsen.
Only then could Elisa convince Stacy and her father to fight against Norman!
"Why bother with that girl?" novelbin
After taking care of the man at the market, Gareth called Thomas and returned to the hotel.
Mainly because Elisa had disappeared, and she wasn't picking up her phone.
Gareth thought she might have returned to the hotel, so he returned to wait for her.
However, she was not there either.
He considered returning to the medicine market to look for her, but the effects of the drugs in his body kicked in.
He gritted his teeth through the pain.
Until she returned…
Gareth was also curious as to why Elisa intervened.
She wasn't the type to stick her nose into other people's business.
"No reason in particular. I just thought she looked sad." Elisa said indifferently.
She did not tell Gareth about Stacy and her father's connection with Norman.
Gareth would probably leave in the middle of it. There was no need for her to explain every single thing she did to him.
"Is that so?"
The way he said it annoyed Elisa.
Elisa frowned, "Why else do you think I did it? And what do you mean by interrogating me like this?"
"I didn't mean it that way." Gareth tried to explain himself.
"If you did not mean it that way, why did you ask me those things?" Elisa argued. "We were supposed to go to the Medicine Market together, but you left and returned to the hotel without saying a thing to me. You have some nerve, Gareth Wickam!"
Elisa vented her frustration.
She became increasingly angry.
Did Gareth think she was poking her nose into other people's business just because she helped the girl? Was that why he came back to the hotel early?
If that was the case, Gareth was crueler and more narrow-minded than she had thought!
"Elisa, I did not come back early!" Gareth said exasperatedly. "I took care of that man for you. Just because you did not see it doesn't mean it didn't happen! And I did try to contact you, but you didn't pick up!"
If what he was saying was true, then Elisa was wrong in blaming him.
Elisa retrieved her phone and glanced through it.
There were over a dozen missed calls and messages from Gareth.
But what difference did it make now?
Elisa pursed her lips and replied coldly, "Whatever. You still came back early."
It was the truth.
"I couldn't reach you, and I thought you had returned to the hotel." Explained Gareth. "When I realized you did not return, the drugs had started acting up…"
