Elisa disliked talking to someone in such a manner.

However, Eden was only a stranger to her, so she had no reason to expect anything from him.

Elisa replied evenly, "I came here as per your invitation. Can you tell me who is the woman that wanted to harm me?"

She set the skewer aside as she said that and looked at him coldly.

Eden smiled and said, "Liz, you rejected me three times. It's not too much to leave you hanging a little, right? What about this? If you agree to go on three dates with me, I will tell you about that person."

He offered her a glass of fruit juice after saying that.

Elisa looked at him indifferently and sneered, "You really hold a grudge."

Her comment did not anger Eden. He even played along with her words. "Of course. I've my masculine dignity, after all. Don't you think being publicly rejected three times is humiliating?"

Elisa laughed mockingly.

A moment later, she turned to Eden and retorted, "Isn't it normal for me to reject someone whose identity and background are unknown to me?"

"But don't you already know who I am, Black-Eyed Susan?" Eden immediately refuted her and even addressed her by her hacker name.

Elisa could not help but frown.

It seems Eden knows a lot!

Seeing her reaction, Eden immediately softened his tone and comforted, "Don't be angry. You attacked Estoccia's system to investigate me. Isn't it expected that I found out about your identity?"

"Furthermore, it's natural to find out as much as possible about the person I want to pursue. Can't you see? We will be a strong alliance if we are together. Liz, your ex-husband is here!"

Eden gestured to Elisa, prompting her to turn around. She saw Gareth walking toward them with an air of authority.

Elisa took a glance at him and turned away indifferently.

Why is he here?

Eden glanced at her expression and offered courteously, "Liz, I can make him leave if you don't wish to see him."

He spoke as if it was something easy to do.

Of course, Elisa believed Eden could make it happen.

She refused coldly, "You and I are only strangers. My relationship with Gareth is not for you to interfere."

Those words carried a hint of warning.

Eden squinted his eyes, but Gareth came to Elisa's side before Eden could reply to her. Gareth pulled out the white chair and sat beside Elisa without requesting permission to join them.

The three shared a table.
