Chapter 1851 Bidding

Elisa didn't say anything, but Gareth knew she had heard him.

He turned and walked downstairs.

Elisa listened to the door close, and his footsteps faded away. She exhaled heavily, lying on the bed with the incident earlier still fresh in her mind.

Elisa had every right to feel angry at Gareth, and she did. But even as she thought about why she should be angry with him, an odd twinge of guilt emerged.
