Chapter 2043 Silenced
“Between you and me, there’s no need for such formalities. Our top priority now is to determine if it was
an accident.” Gareth paused and looked at a particular spot outside the window. His voice suddenly
hardened, carrying a chilling tone, “Or was it an attempted murder!”
Something within Elisa stirred at his words.
This is definitely an attempted murder and a premeditated act targeted at me. It’s just that
unexpectedly, it was Rachel who got hurt in the end. If… If Rachel never wakes up in this lifetime and
can only lie in bed in a vegetative state, how can I atone for my sins?
Upon noticing that Elisa was feeling a bit down, Gareth took the initiative to bring up Kaylee, effectively
diverting Elisa’s attention.
“Why did you ask me earlier if Kaylee was around? Do you suspect that she has sneaked underwater?”
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtElisa stared at Gareth, nodding solemnly.
The latter raised his eyebrows slightly. “Why?”
Gareth knew very well that Elisa was not the type to slander others without evidence, much less hold a
grudge over past friction and make wild guesses.
She must have clear and specific evidence to make such a statement.
Unfortunately, she could not produce any substantial evidence this time.
Elisa stared at Gareth, hesitating to speak several times. In the end, she decided to speak up.
“Do you remember when we invited Grandma to come along and soak in the hot springs at Mount
Lusetonas? Not only did she decline, but she also insisted we bring Kaylee along, remember?”
With a hint of hesitation, Gareded. It wasn’t that he had forgotten about the matter, but he was
pondering what his grandmother had to do with it.
Elisa continued, “At that time, I went in with Bella. Grandma’s attitude toward me was very…” She did
not even know how to describe what was going on between them as it was unprecedented.
“She was very distant. It’s like she didn’t want to talk to me at all. I’ve been reflecting on myself these
past few days, wondering if I’ve done something wrong. But no matter how much I think about it, I can’t
find anything I did wrong.”
Elisa chose a gradual approach, not mentioning the Wyrithian immediately but first discussing Julia’s
unusual behavior.
Gareth nodded, signaling her to continue speaking.
Elisa continued, “When we were about to leave that day, Maria told me that Grandma has been acting
very differently lately. After that, we decided to stay another night at Mount Lusetonas. I also called
Grandma the next morning. In short, she was very… strange. She was constantly worried about Kaylee
and only about her. Later on, I started questioning what was going on with Grandma, and I thought I
should tell you about it. The moment I stepped out, I found Kaylee at the table, looking a little uneasy.

Elisa continued to reminisce, “All along the way, her gaze was always subtly fixed on me. I could sense

but I just never said anything about it.”
“So, you suspect that Kaylee did something to Grandma, and you’re worried that if you tell me the truth.
she might harm you,” Gareth added, finishing her sentence.
Elisa nodded, finding it enjoyable to converse with intelligent people. She merely had to hint at certain.
aspects without having to explain everything in detail. He would naturally understand what she meant
and the connection between the two matters.
Gareth fell into deep thought. This isn’t a small matter and requires careful consideration.
