No Chance of Remarriage: Get Lost

Chapter 361 Like A Hedgehog
“You can beg me.”
Elisa was rendered speechless as she gazed at Gareth. “Gareth Wickam, is there something wrong with your brain?”
Gareth’s expression turned gloomy. “If it wasn’t for me, you would have drowned in the water. My phone was even spoiled because of you. Shouldn’t you beg for my forgiveness?”
Elisa smiled. “Given the situation, you shouldn’t accuse me of being ungrateful. I know you didn’t rescue me for my sake, but because you didn’t want Grandma to worry. Even if you didn’t rescue me today, some other kind soul would.”
To think about it, she would have appreciated anyone else who saved her, even if that person had his or her own motive. After all, that person would have been her life-saver.
However, she just couldn’t bring herself to thank Gareth. Whatever. Indeed, I’m a petty person.
Sure enough, Gareth’s face turned sullener, but Elisa continued staring at him fearlessly. “Would you only buy me a phone if I beg you?”

She knew Gareth wouldn’t allow her to head out today, and she thought it was unnecessary to provoke him at this moment.
It could be dangerous out there. Linda was a maniac – she would even stage a car accident with herself being the victim. There was nothing she wouldn’t do. So, it was indeed risky for Elisa to go out at night.
Truth be told, Gareth was still unhappy about Elisa.
“Why didn’t you tell me?”
Elisa was startled for a moment before she realized what he was talking about. She put on a faint smile and asked, “Would you believe me if I told you?”
Gareth didn’t know how to respond. Elisa smirked when she perceived his response. He clearly remembers that he never believed what I said in the past.
Gareth closed his eyes and mumbled, “I’ll get someone to buy a new phone for you. Call Grandma and tell her you’re safe. She has been looking for you.”
Elisa said nothing and immediately walked to the home phone to call Julia.
Soon, Julia picked up the call. “Hello.”
“Hey Grandma, it’s me, Elisa.”
There was a slight pause at the other end of the line before Julia asked anxiously, “Hey Elisa, is everything okay? I saw you were drenched just now. What happened?”
It was very quiet in the room. Gareth was standing not far away from the phone. Even though Elisa did not put the call on speaker, he could still hear Julia’s voice.
Elisa sat down in front of the phone. The expression on her fair face softened into a gentle grin. “I stood too close to the water and accidentally fell into it. I’m fine now, Grandma.”
“I don’t believe that you’re fine! Please be more careful next time and don’t linger around those dangerous places, okay?”
