No Chance of Remarriage Get Lost (Elisa) novel Chapter 1809

Elisa's heart sank. This question had finally come. She closed her eyes and took a deep breath. When she opened her eyes again, their confusion was replaced with clarity. She turned around to face Gareth, who was gazing at her fervently. He did not loosen his grip on her hand, worrying that she would run away when he let go.

In fact, Elisa, too, intended to have an open and honest conversation with Gareth.

Gareth said, "Elisa, the fact that you didn't push me away proves that you don't detest me. Maybe, you have feelings for me too. Don't deceive yourself anymore. Don't suppress your feelings, alright?" Gareth was nervous when he said those words, fearing Elisa might refute him.

Elisa remained silent with her eyes downcast.

Gareth continued, "I know I've let you down in the past. I hope you'll give me a chance to make it up to you. I wish to share our future together. Do you understand?"

Elisa turned to look at him. Gareth was relieved to see no hint of disgust in her expression.

They could see their reflections in each other's eyes while the atmosphere was filled with tenderness and affection.

"Gareth, we were once husband and wife. We've known each other for a long time, and I once treated you sincerely. I would be lying if I said I have no feelings for you."

Gareth's eyes instantly lit up.

"But…" Elisa hadn't finished her sentence. "All this shall pass. Right now, I only feel grateful toward you, nothing more."

Elisa was conflicted, but one thing was clear – at that point, she couldn't bring herself to treat Gareth with hostility and ruthlessness like before.

Do I… like him a little?

Elisa was stunned. Gareth seemed to have mistaken her meaning! She attempted to push Gareth away, but the latter pretended to wince in pain, having noticed her intention.

Elisa dared not move, worrying that she would touch his wound.

A triumphant smile spread across Gareth's face.

The hug lasted for several minutes before Gareth reluctantly let go of Elisa.

He apologized thereafter, expressing that he was overjoyed and didn't mean to take advantage of her. He didn't forget that Elisa hated it when her will was disrespected. His action just now was out of strong affection but not disrespect.

Elisa didn't answer; her mind was a mess.
