Chapter 1914 Taking A Stroll
The two walked together, maintaining a distance that was neither too close nor too far. They seemed to be a perfect match for each other.
As handsome as he was and as beautiful as she was, at first glance, they exuded extraordinary charisma. Such a combination naturally attracted a lot of attention.
Whether it was Gareth's intentional act or just a coincidence remained unknown, but it was worth mentioning that the two wore black trench coats of similar styles that day, making them look even more like a couple.
That day, Elisa appeared stunning with her wavy hair and red lips. The teardrop mole at the corner of her eye was the finishing touch, making her beauty absolutely breathtaking.
Even so, when Gareth stood beside her, he was not overlooked. Instead, he served as the perfect foil.
The two of them standing together were the very definition of a match made in heaven.
Elisa saw it all but chose not to say anything.
Gareth took the initiative to ask about Paul and Rochelle's affairs, which was considered as starting a conversation. “What are your plans for dealing with Paul and Rochelle?”
Elisa remained silent.
Gareth continued, “Just by the police arrest them is letting them off too easily.”
Indeed, what Elisa initially planned was to publicly declare their crimes in the company. She intended to make their lives miserable and completely ruin their reputation!
However, when it came time to execute her plan, Elisa suddenly didn't follow through.
Perhaps it was because Paul had caused Rochelle to suffer a miscarriage with a kick or because Elisa recalled the help Paul once gave to Benett Corporation.
In short, she didn't do it.
It was not about any sort of sentiment since Rochelle and she didn't share any sentiment.
It was simply because she didn't want the reputation of the company to be tarnished by those two scumbags.
With that thought, Elisa felt relieved.
She smiled in relief. “Exactly. If someone commits a crime, it's only natural for the police to handle it. There's no such thing as getting off easy. They can't escape the punishment they deserve.”
In fact, she left half of her sentence unsaid. This may not necessarily be the end of what Paul and Rochelle have to face.
Gareth stared intently at Elisa, his gaze captivated. He was unable to look away for a long time.
He couldn't help but feel that Elisa had become more efficient and considerate in her actions after
returning from the island.
If Elisa's previous approach to things was said to be firm, accurate, and ruthless, leaning more toward ruthlessness, then now it leaned more toward firmness.
She was more composed now.
Such a version of Elisa was evidently more terrifying.
It was as if she had made up for her only shortcoming. Who knows what kind of storm Benett Corporation will stir up in the future?
However, Gareth didn't say it out loud. He believed that Elisa would not be at a disadvantage.
Seeing Gareth halt, Elisa turned to look at him. “Let's go. Let's walk a little longer. It's been a long time since we've strolled aimlessly like this. Every step we used to take had a purpose.”
Gareth understood what she implied and felt a pang of heartache.
In reality, he was no different from her.
The two continued to walk along a shaded path, with cars constantly whizzing by them.
Lost in her thoughts, Elisa absentmindedly kicked the stones under her feet. She was contemplating her relationship with Gareth.
Having spent so much time together on the island, they shared both joys and sorrows. They were once
each other's only companion and person to trust.
That made Elisa's long-held principle of holding him at a respectful distance start to waver a bit. After going through all that, should I continue to distance myself from Gareth? Or should we get along peacefully now?
Elisa didn't know.
As for getting back together, she had never considered it.
Or rather, she believed she had never thought about it.
She was so engrossed in thought that she didn't even notice a motorcycle whizzing by her.
What was worse, due to the recent rain, puddles had formed on the road.
