Honey We Are Not Getting Remarried: Get Away From Me!

His appeased anger had returned entirely, but Elisa had no idea what had occurred in Gareth's thoughts.

"Is this explanation good enough?" she asked composedly.

It was such a perfect explanation that they could not put together a comeback.

Gareth looked so cold and menacing that the people around him shuddered fearfully.

Who is he directing his anger to? Is he angry with Elisa or us because we have been questioning her?

While everyone worried about the outcome, he suddenly instructed, "Continue."

From that response, they knew that Gareth had believed Elisa and wanted her to remain.

We must have antagonized Mr. Wickam by attacking Elisa together just now! He's unhappy with us now.

Throughout the entire meeting, everyone was tense. Long after Gareth left, they heaved a sigh of relief.

On the way out, they discussed among themselves quietly.

"What do you think he means? Why did he suddenly continue the meeting? He should pursue the matter further."

"But… if he trusts Elisa, why did he ask her to explain herself just now?"

They fell silent again, feeling something was off but unable to place their finger on it.

In a nutshell, everyone left with conflicted feelings.

At Benett Corporation, Linda was still working in the office.

She wasn't busy at all. After all, she was the director's daughter. No one dared to assign too many tasks to her unless she volunteered. Apart from that, they even reminded her not to overwork, which was unheard of.

The people who worked for her knew they had to flatter her.

Suddenly, she received a call from an anonymous source and quickly picked it up.

"Hello."

As she spoke, she tightened her hold on her phone nervously – this would happen every time she received a call from the anonymous caller. Apart from that, she also felt great anticipation for a surprise.

She was also worried that the mysterious caller might use her to do something heinous.

At the very worst, she might not be able to notice the malicious intent.
