Chapter 1878 Bashed Him up for Good

Elisa kept feeling like something terrible was going to happen.

She expressed concern to Gareth, but he said, "Don't worry about it. It's pointless to mull over it at this point. Just treat this as a vacation."

Thus, Elisa did not say anything but continued prepping the vegetables.

A heavy silence fell between them.

Elisa had foraged these wild vegetables a few days earlier with Mrs. Kella. They were delicious as salads.

Meanwhile, Gareth chopped firewood nearby.

He was intelligent and a quick learner. It only took him a few days to grasp the skill.

They each focused on their tasks and were reasonably well-adjusted to life in this village.

Despite all the troubles they had experienced, Elisa considered themselves fortunate because Anna never bothered them again.

It felt pretty lovely living peacefully like this.

At the same time, Elisa and Gareth devised plans to steal the compass and escape.

Unfortunately, an annoying person put a wedge in their plan.


Elisa woke up early one morning and left her room to wake Gareth up in the hut next door.

She noticed a rowdy-looking young man moving around suspiciously as she entered the yard.

The man jumped in surprise when he saw her leaving the house.

However, his eyes gleamed after he took in her appearance.

He rubbed his hands obscenely and asked, "Who are you?"

Elisa did not answer him but directed the same question to him. "Who are you? Why are you here?"

The man laughed loudly as if he had heard a funny joke.

Once he was done laughing, he said, "This is my grandmother's house, and you asked why I'm here?"

Elisa's gaze darkened.

He must be the delinquent grandson Mrs. Kella mentioned. There are always a few unruly hooligans in every society.

The man leered at Elisa and wanted to say something.

However, his voice woke Gareth and Mrs. Kella, and they exited the house.

Seeing the young man, Mrs. Kella rushed to him and shouted furiously, "Sodo, why are you here?"

Sodo grinned nonchalantly. "Grandma, what are you saying? I'm your grandson. Why can't I be here?"

Mrs. Kella did not reply but glared at him.

Sodo shrugged and walked around with his hands behind his back. He glanced at Elisa from time to time.

Gareth noticed his gaze. He went to Elisa and stood before her, blocking her from Sodo's view.

Sodo cursed under his breath and hurried to Mrs. Kella. He tugged her arm and whispered something into her ear.

Initially, Mrs. Kella was unwilling to talk to him. Unfortunately, she gave in after his insistence.
