Chapter 49 It Was a Brilliant Move
Will smiled and said, “I got to go back to work. I will find an opportunity to compensate Mr. Morris in the
future.”
Since Will had already compensated for his actions, Mr. Morris decided to drop the whole thing. He
smiled and replied, “You’re welcome, Mr. Darcey. I’ll leave you to it.”
Will nodded and left with Elisa. The audience were still gossiping and whispering to one another. They
were a little disappointed that all the main figures had left so quickly.
The audience could only get their news from the media later on.
Will and Elisa walked all the way to Will’s car. Will opened the front passenger seat door for Elisa and
she sat in.
After Will got in the car and closed the door, Elisa asked, “This banquet is over now. When are you
going to appeal?”
“After you got your divorce certificate. I need to prepare some documents, but it won’t take long.”
Elisa nodded and remained silent.
After completing the whole process, I no longer need to cooperate with Will in the future.
I will no longer have any kind of relationship with Gareth too.
I can finally live my own life.
“Are you hungry? Shall we go get some food?” Will started the engine while looking at her.
Elisa shook her head, “No, thanks. I need some rest.”
Although she was determined, decisive, and calm, she was actually physically burnt out.
It wasn’t easy to give up her many years of affection towards Gareth. She could feel the pain to let go
of Gareth.
Will didn’t ask any further. He quietly drove her home.
Suddenly, Elisa’s phone rang. Elisa looked at the caller ID and picked up the phone. Before Elisa could
speak, the person on the other side of the phone asked in an anxious tone.
“Elisa, how is it going? Has the banquet started? Darn, we got into a car accident! How I wish to see
your performance at the banquet!”
“Car accident?” Elisa asked nervously. “Are you guys injured?”
Will glanced at Elisa and slowed down the speed of the car. He was preparing to go to the crash site.
“Don’t worry. We’re fine. The guy who bumped into our car was drunk. He couldn’t even hold his
steering properly and he was stomping on the accelerator. He wasn’t injured too, but he was taken
away by the traffic police. Our car was hit so hard from behind that we hit the tree in front. Our car is
considered a total loss and we can’t even start our car now.”
Elisa breathed a sigh of relief. At the same time, Rachel asked anxiously again. “We are at a suburb
now. We’ve already called a car to pick us up, so we might be late. How are you doing? Have you
announced your divorce? Please wait until we reach! I’m so looking forward to it!”
Elisa breathed a sigh of relief when she heard Rachel speaking so loudly and insisted on coming to the
banquet. She knew that Rachel was okay. Elisa’s mouth tilted slightly and said, “Don’t rush. I’ve already
announced it.”
“Are you kidding? So fast?”
“Yes. Everything that needed to be solved has been solved. You guys don’t need to come anymore.”
“What?” Rachel expressed her regret. “Oh my gosh! I didn’t get to see your wonderful performance!
You have to make it up to me!”
“Sure, I’ll invite you to dinner another day.”
“You have to cook yourself!”
“Okay.”
Rachel was finally happy, but in a split second, she asked again, “Have you really got divorced? Elisa,
are you not telling me the truth so that I won’t get worried?”
“I won’t do that. You will read about it all over the Internet tomorrow.”
Rachel frowned. After convincing herself that Elisa wouldn’t lie about something serious like a divorce,
she nodded. “Okay, I’ll trust you then. Where are you now? Let’s have fun tonight! Tell us about your
brilliant move today!”
