Chapter 73
Chapter 73 Not Capable Enough to Stay
Following her gaze, Vincent turned around. When he saw Elisa, he immediately frowned. This woman
cared about Gareth a lot, and she played her part well as his wife. But now that she had a fall out with
Gareth and got closer to Will, I have no idea what she is up to.
He had no intention of getting out of the car. Instead, he merely shot her a glance and left after Rachel
closed the door.
Rachel, however, looked at Elisa excitedly. “Look, Liz. I bought so many ingredients. Can you cook
them for me?”
Elisa’s lips twitched. “You eat quite a lot – aren’t you worried about getting fatter?”
“Nope, and I’m proud of myself. My weight is achieved by every mouthful of food. I bet those who want
to gain more weight are even envious of me!”
Elisa had no idea how to reply to that, and so they went upstairs together.
After enjoying another delicious meal from Elisa, Rachel was beyond satisfied. However, she did not
stay the night this time. Worried that Vincent might be up to no good, she went back early, for fear that
he might steal the thing they were talking about just now.
The next two days passed by peacefully, without anyone interrupting her life.
One afternoon, Gareth’s grandfather, Darren Wickam, called Gareth to ask him to join them for dinner.
Even though Gareth was rather reluctant to do that, he usually did not reject his grandfather’s wishes.
That night, the four of them – Gareth, Julia, Monica, and Darren – had dinner together with a rather
heavy atmosphere.
Before this, Elisa would always be present at their family gatherings, so Julia felt that something was
missing with her absence.
She could not help sighing when she thought about that, and she merely focused on the food, having
no mood for chatting.
Darren looked at her resentfully before asking Gareth coolly, “Do you have other plans, now that you’re
divorced?”
He replied calmly, “I’m going to focus on work first.”
Darren immediately frowned. “Don’t you want to remarry? I’m sure you need a companion.”
“Judging by the current situation, do you think it’s suitable to remarry?” He raised his head to look at
Darren.
Monica immediately interjected with a frown, “What is unsuitable about that? Back then, Linda landed
in a vegetative state just to save you – everyone knows that. No one would say anything if you marry
her.”
Darren nodded as soon as he heard that. “That’s right. At the dinner party, Elisa demanded for a
divorce publicly to humiliate you, and the rumors between her and Will never stopped. The netizens are
already insulting her online, thinking that she cheated on you first. In my opinion, there’s nothing wrong
for you to marry Linda to repay her saving your life.”
However, Julia’s face immediately darkened. “Y-Y-You guys are too much! You forced my
granddaughter-in-law to leave!”
“We forced her? She was not capable enough to stay. How could you push the blame on us?” Darren
fixed her with a cold stare.
Meanwhile, Gareth’s expression remained stony. He did not say a word, but they were not sure if he
was unhappy with Julia or Darren.
Monica also nodded in agreement. “Yeah. Mom, look at how ruthless Elisa is. I had given her another
chance the other day, but she didn’t take it. If my son wants to marry another woman, why do we need
to take her feelings into consideration? On top of that, she has been flirting with Will all this while –
you’ve seen if yourself. The rumors about their affair are on the Internet. Many people even speculate
that they are going to get married soon.”
