We Are Not Getting Remarried: Show Yourself Out

"Miss! Miss! I'm so sorry!" The little girl apologized meekly.

Elisa stopped and looked down at the girl.

She was all skin and bones. Her eyes were wide with panic and fear.

The girl's hand clenched tightly behind her back.

However, Elisa continued to browse the medicinal herbs on display.

The market was bustling with people, and the sound of people shouting their wares and haggling filled the air. Elisa had already forgotten about bumping into the little girl from earlier. After paying for her items, she glanced at Gareth, indicating for them to leave.

But they were blocked in.

"Excuse me. Please let us through." Elisa said to the middle-aged man standing in the center.

But he was more focused on what was happening outside and completely ignored them.

Realizing the man would not move, Gareth led Elisa past him, pushing a path through the crowd.

The crowd surrounded the little girl who had bumped into Elisa earlier!

The girl looked emasculated, as if she hadn't had a good meal in a while. She was so pale. Her eyes looked like wide orbs filled with fear in her little face.
