No Chance of Remarriage: Get Lost

Chapter 1444 Nicole’s Deed

At that moment, Gareth never considered looking into it or taking Elisa's side to believe her. After all, what difference would it make even if the truth was uncovered now?

Linda was already dead.

Even if he could prove Elisa's innocence, some people would perceive her attempt to defame the deceased Linda.

But Gareth didn't see it that way. He pressed his lips together and said, "Why not? Of course, it's necessary to defend your innocence. Elisa, I..."

Elisa's intense expression took Gareth by surprise. It was a reaction he had never seen from her during their long acquaintance.

For a moment, Gareth fell silent, absorbing Elisa's words.

A faint trace of amusement glimmered in Elisa's eyes as she responded coldly, "You already sentenced me to a capital offense back then, Gareth. Let me ask you, even if you investigate now and prove my innocence, what difference would it make? Do you think I need your attempts at redemption? Do you believe I want your money or to continue a loveless marriage with you?"

A loveless marriage was even more terrifying than death itself!

She had foolishly believed that she could touch Gareth's heart and spend their twilight years together, finding comfort in each other's presence as they aged. But what had it all come to?

"I understand that you no longer care about it, but after everything we've been through, I'm compelled to seek the truth, Elisa. I cannot falsely accuse an innocent person, nor can I let a guilty person evade justice," Gareth's expression turned serious and resolute, his eyes filled with icy determination.

Elisa found his determination cringe-worthy, "That's your business; it has nothing to do with me. Now that you have the antidote, control over Mr. Carrerra with the poison, and have obtained the Ganoderma Caligo, you can continue on your own path. At the same time, I'll choose a separate one."

With these words, Elisa sidestepped Gareth and left.

Gareth understood Elisa's nature, and he had already poured his heart out, saying everything he wanted to say. Now, it was in her hands.

Did he expect Elisa to boldly push open the door and stride into the adjacent private room?

To his surprise, it was Nicole's private room!

Uncertain of Elisa's intentions, Gareth decided to follow her nonetheless.

Elisa entered the room ahead of him.

As she pushed the door open, she immediately drew the attention of Nicole's two subordinates stationed by the entrance. They were about to attack Elisa when she swiftly stepped back, seized their wrists, and forcefully yanked, causing them to collide forcefully with each other.

The commotion instantly caught Nicole's attention.

Elisa's arrival darkened Nicole's expression. "Elisa, I didn't expect you to come meddling in my affairs. Yet here you are, on my doorstep!"
