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.

She struggled to pinpoint the source of this guilt, caught off guard by her conflicted emotions.

She was profusely shaking her head, trying to eradicate these complicated thoughts from her mind.

Why am I feeling guilty? If anyone should feel guilty, it should be Gareth!

After waiting around ten minutes, the power finally came back on. Gareth went back upstairs and saw that Elisa had locked the door.

He had thought about saying something but wasn't sure if Elisa had fallen asleep, so he decided to keep quiet.

In the room, Elisa turned her back to the door, staring at the moonlight pouring in through the window.
