No Chance of Remarriage: Get Lost

Chapter 152 The Presents
The butler answered in affirmative and went to the room where the presents were kept.
Everyone waited in anticipation.
They knew Elisa and Linda were not only cousins but were also Gareth’s ex and current romantic partner.
Furthermore, both ladies were close to members of the Wickam family. Each had its supporters.
Julia and Jerry were on Elisa’s side, while Darren and Monica sided with Linda. Furthermore, Linda saved Gareth’s life. It seemed Linda had a vast advantage, but she said she would never marry Gareth. That turned the whole matter strange and threw both sides off course.
Thus, the crowd was waiting to see the drama unfold.
There was always some kind of drama ever since Gareth and Elisa divorced.

Meanwhile, Linda did not return to her seat but waited at the side as she would be presenting her gift soon.
Shirley’s gaze was full of confidence. She glanced at Elisa as if knowing Elisa’s present would lose.
That made Linda furious with Shirley. Is Shirley an idiot?
How can she appear confident as if she is winning?
Thus, Linda sent Shirley a look, prompting Shirley to tone down her smug expression.
Then, Linda sighed and smiled gently at Elisa. “Liz, I didn’t expect us to present our gifts to Old Madam Wickam together. But it is an honor, don’t you think?”
Linda behaved like a caring older cousin comforting someone who was about to lose. To make her less dejected, Linda said it was not a competition, but they were presenting their birthday presents together.
Elisa nodded without a fuss and said, “You’re right, Linda.”
Linda smiled. Then, she noticed the butler coming over with the gifts and said softly, “The butler’s here.”
Every present was labeled with the sender’s name. Then, the butler handed the two wrapped presents to Elisa and Linda.
Elisa accepted the present. Previously, she wanted to give it to Julia before the banquet, but Julia refused and insisted that Elisa bring the present and attend the birthday banquet.
It turned out Julia was only making an excuse to make Elisa attend. In actuality, Julia wanted to announce during the birthday banquet that Elisa was now her granddaughter. Everything Julia had done so far was for Elisa. Thus, Elisa was afraid that Julia would soon see Linda’s present.
Furthermore, Elisa had a sudden urge to snatch the present from Linda so that Julia would never see it.
Gareth looked at Elisa. They had been married for three years, so he could sense her growing panic.
