Elisa gave him a peculiar look. “What do you want?”
Elisa gave up on her effortless struggle.
Gareth took a deep breath and tried to calm himself down.
But Elisa was dissatisfied with him not saying anything.
What was he doing?
A while later, he said with a deep voice, “I will not be engaged to her.”
Elisa was surprised. “You won’t?”
She was interested in this.
She was interested in anything that would make Linda unhappy.
Gareth pursed his lips. “I will explain everything to you if everything is as you said.”
Elisa chuckled lightly. She stared straight into his eyes and said, “Didn’t you think I was a conceited and

A while later, he spoke in a low voice. “Hopefully, you are not someone like that.”
“Hah.” Elisa snorted. It seemed that he still thought she was someone like that.
She ignored the ugly look on Gareth’s face and said, “I don’t know what your intentions are, but I’m
happy that you will break the engagement with Linda. I know you are not doing it for me, but I’m still
glad you are doing it. Thank you.”
The look in Gareth’s eyes turned colder.
“Elisa, are you too lazy to even put up an act anymore?”
She was obedient, docile, gentle, and understanding in the past.

yourself. Do listen to Sheena, as she’s the one taking care of you.’
— Carle: ‘I’m taking care of my health. Don’t worry about me, Elisa. I might even get discharged when
you are back.’
— Elisa: ‘Okay then. I’ve had a long day. I’m tired. Goodnight.’
Carle slowly deleted the message he had typed halfway. He wanted to ask if they could have a video
call. A hint of disappointment flashed across his eyes.
But…
He knew that Elisa was busy right now. He shouldn’t disturb her.
