Chapter 1818 Barging Into the Room

Gareth noticed that Elisa was uncomfortable, so he acted as if he didn't want to stay in the room and inquired with Maria about the availability of other rooms.

Elisa gave him a suspicious look and narrowed her eyes.

Maria knew Julia's intention and clearly understood why Gareth was acting this way.

She apologized and said, "Old Madam Wickam asked me to tidy up these two rooms. I wouldn't be able to get another room ready in time. Is there something wrong?"

Elisa shook her head. She didn't want to bother Maria over this matter late at night. After all, she only had to tolerate it for one night.

Even though their rooms were right next to each other and they had to share a balcony, she could ensure the doors were locked at night.

Gareth remained silent after he heard Elisa agreeing to stay in the rooms. Elisa thanked Maria, and Maria immediately headed off to bed.


The corners of Maria's lips were lifted in a big smile the entire time. Seeing that "Madam" agreed to stay, she took the other staff away, afraid that they would disturb their privacy.

This left Elisa and Gareth standing face to face, staring at each other.

Elisa squinted her eyes, yawning away her exhaustion. Gareth was met with a serious gaze from her as she spoke, "I'll sleep in the room on the left. I'm locking the doors. If you don't want to be perceived as a pervert, please don't wander around aimlessly."

Before Gareth could say anything, Elisa opened the door to the room on the left and went in. Her actions were swift and decisive, exuding an air of confidence.

Gareth stared intently at Elisa's back as she went inside. His eyes gleamed with amusement. He had no choice but to accommodate her indifference towards him; after all, he was the one who chose her.

He sighed and turned away, shaking his head as he pushed open the door to the room on the right. However, he had a plan in mind.

It was a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to keep himself etched in her mind all night. There was no way he was going to let this opportunity go.

Elisa was well aware of Gareth's intentions, so the first thing she did when she entered the room was lock the balcony door and the main entrance. She stretched her hands to work out the fatigue before heading to the bathroom to shower.

Out of the blue, the door to the balcony opened as soon as she stepped into the bathroom.

Gareth shook the keys, a mischievous grin spreading across his face.

The room was silent. Gareth glanced around and realized that Elisa was not in the room. She had gone into the bathroom.
