“Don’t think about it too much. Furthermore, you don’t have to maintain any kind of relationship with her. There’s no need for it.”
Linda was dumbstruck.
She thought that Garry would say something excessive, but was it just these?
“Garry, I…”
“I have something to do. I’ll come and visit you when I’m free. Rest well at home.”
Linda was dumbfounded once more.
She opened her lips and clearly wanted to say something but was afraid that Gareth would be annoyed, so she retreated. “Alright. Go on with your work. Remember to take care of your health. Don’t work too hard, Garry.”
“Mm.”
Gareth’s voice was magnetic, but upon closer inspection, a faint impatience could be heard.
Linda’s expression changed, and she could only say, “Alright. I’ll be hanging up.”
“Mm.”
Linda took a breath in and could only hang up.
The next moment, she looked at Rose in a flustered and exasperated manner, who was beside her. “Look at this. I said that I didn’t want to call him! Look at what happened. What do you and dad want
me to do!”
Just now, her mother kept telling her what and how to do so it would be advantageous to her, but she didn’t say what their true motives were. Linda didn’t get Gareth’s attention, and she was even more jittery.
Rose giggled. “That’s what I want. Linda, you really can’t hold on. So what if Elisa has the opportunity to work with Darcey Group this time? Do you really think that she can snatch Benett Corporation back?”
Linda was startled. She looked at Rose subconsciously. “What do you mean?”
“Didn’t Mr. Wickam tell you? Rest well at home. Leave everything to me.”
Linda was stupefied.
With a face full of confusion, she asked, “Mom, what are you and dad going to do?”
Rose suddenly said grudgingly, “Don’t you know the reason for every step we’re taking right now?”
“Huh?”
Linda was even more confused.
Rose shook her head in frustration. “There are only two things that we must do now. The first is that you have to marry Gareth quickly. The second is to stop Elisa from snatching Benett Corporation back. How have you mixed up which is more important?”
Linda was extremely baffled and immediately retorted, “Who said that I mixed up what is important? I’m stopping her, aren’t I? Otherwise, how would I have been suspended at work?”
Rose sighed. “Alright. For the time being, you need to think of a way to marry Gareth.”
Linda was bewildered. “What does that have to do with me calling him?”
“How would there be an effect without a cause?” Rose said with her head in the clouds.
Linda was already restless and impatient, and she became even more irritable at that moment. “What on earth is it? Can’t you just tell me directly?!”
“Hasty men don’t get to eat hot food. If I tell you everything, with your current temperament, you’re sure to mess things up. I’ll tell you after your mood stabilizes in a few days.”
After she said it, Rose got up and went out.
Linda was at a loss for words.
She growled in a flustered and exasperated manner and threw her cell phone on the bed.
She closed her eyes and took deep breaths in, trying her best to control her own emotions.
…
The sky was getting darker.
Elisa was already in a pub.
This was where Brandon loved to go frequently.
At that moment, Elisa had found a corner to sit down at, like a hunter waiting for its prey.
There was blue-colored alcohol in front of her, but she didn’t have any intention of drinking it.
She was holding her cell phone instead and playing with something.
The next moment, her cell phone suddenly rang.
