Chapter 279
It was no wonder Gilbert’s appearance stood out among the crowd. His mother was the most beautiful woman in Blaydal, and his father was also a well-known noble there.

Naturally, their children wouldn’t look too shabby either.

As Elspeth gazed at his faint smile, she somehow thought of a term to describe him—his beauty was unparalleled.

“What are you looking at? We’ve known each other for so long, yet you’re still stunned by my good looks, eh?” When Gilbert said this, he didn’t blush in the slightest. He had broad shoulders, a slender waist, and long legs. With his exquisite facial features thrown into the mix, no one would doubt his claims.

Elspeth chuckled, then raised her wine glass and took a sip. “What do you mean, stunned by your good looks? I’m just thinking, what right do you have to be so handsome? You’re not making use of your looks, after all.”

Gilbert’s most obvious strength was his good looks, and it was also the aspect of him that people envied the most. However, it was also something he valued the least.

He even hated people telling him that he looked good.

When Gilbert heard Elspeth’s words, his expression instantly turned foul. He was about to lecture Elspeth when another person joined their table.

“Hey there, Elspeth, Harper, Gilbert. I got delayed because something happened on my way here. Sorry.”

Lisa came late. Gilbert didn’t want to lecture Elspeth in front of an audience, so he gave up. Harper put on a regretful expression, earning a vicious glare from Elspeth.

“Right, I have something to ask you about.” Elspeth sat Lisa down beside her and began to interrogate, “What exactly is going on between you and Blake? Why are you two together all the time? Did he threaten you?”

Even Lisa was exasperated at the topic. “I don’t know what’s going on with him these days. He suddenly started talking to me every day, asking me to play sports with him and go shopping with him, and he even wanted me to be his manager. I had too much to drink the other day, and while I was drunk, he sneakily used my fingerprint to sign the contract, so I’m his manager now.”

Elspeth was at a loss for words.

“Are you saying that you two secretly signed a contract under my company without my knowledge? Does Timothy know?”
