Chapter 1935 The Trial

In those twinkling eyes, an unspoken message seemed to linger: “You have to take responsibility for me.”

Elisa shifted her gaze somewhat awkwardly, then scratched her head apologetically, saying, “I'm sorry, I was being presumptuous.”

Gareth offered a faint, reassuring smile, signaling that he understood.

He appeared delicate, and Elisa bit her lip, seemingly lost in thought.

“You shouldn't blame yourself too much; this isn't your fault.” Gareth tried to console her, hoping to ease her burden.

Elisa didn't respond immediately. She simply patted Gareth's shoulder suddenly and said, “Since you're injured, you shouldn't go to court today.”

It was partly to make Elisa feel a bit more concerned for him.

Gareth immediately sat up straight, indicating that he was perfectly fine.

With a playful gleam in her eyes, Elisa managed to keep a straight face as she said, “Whether there's a problem or not, it's not for you to decide; it's up to me. Just stay home today and wait for me to bring back some good news.”
