The three collected their thoughts in silence.
Neither of them knew how to solve the matter.
Sheena sighed, “Yesterday, Carle confronted me. It was about whether Elisa intended to break her
promise since we lied.”
Rachel took a breath, “Ah…”
Elisa pursed her lips, “It’s good for him to doubt.”
Sheena refrained from shedding a tear. She was afraid that Carle would spot her outside the ward.
She sighed, “Elisa, why am I not enough for him? If it were me, he wouldn’t have to worry.”
Rachel was speechless.
Elisa responded calmly, “Let’s concentrate on the things at hand. I’ll handle dealing with that later.”
Sheena and Rachel agreed.

“She’s much better. In a few days, Elisa can visit the hospital.”
The woman was grateful for the news. She was happy that Elisa was back on her feet. “Then get some
well-deserved rest. I’ll be looking forward to your meetup with Carle.”
“Don’t worry! I’m here! I can take care of her. You take care of Carle on the other side, haha.”
Sheena smiled. It was rare these days that she felt genuinely happy.

A night passed.
Linda finally woke up.
She was stuck in a fantastic dream. Linda could still hear Gareth calling her lovingly and offering to
keep the engagement between them. “Don’t worry, I’ll keep you safe from public ridicule. We’ll be the
happiest couple in the world,” Gareth said when he was awake.
She was almost happy to be awake.
But reality sunk in.
How cruel! Cruel!
“Linda, you finally woke up!”
Linda was roused by the frazzled, worried voice.
It turned out to be her parents, who were seated next to her bed.
When she quickly turned to look around, she saw that there were just the three of them in the ward.
Linda’s complexion abruptly became pallid. Her mouth’s pleasant smile vanished.
The pair got increasingly concerned when they noticed her change. Rose immediately rang the bell
beside the bed, “Hurry up! Where’s the nurse?!”
Linda developed a headache, “Mom, stop pressing.”
Rose paused, “Linda, you’re…”

Linda turned her head to look at Rose. Her eyes couldn’t hide her anticipation: “Mom, where did Gareth
run off to? Just now…he has been by my side, right?”
Norman Benett and Rose’s expressions grew grave.
Disappointment flooded over Linda.
Her voice trembled, “It was… a dream?”
Rose was afraid that Linda would be overly upset again, “Oh, Gareth was alone with you in the room
just now. We don’t know what he said to you, but he was busy and didn’t stay too long. He was here
longer than us.”
Rose sighed, “He is very guilty and wants to stay with you all the time. The Darcey company has
caused him issues. If it is not resolved, the company may go bankrupt. He has no choice but to go to
other places. Too many cities.”
