No Chance of Remarriage Get Lost (Elisa) novel Chapter 1817

Elisa knew that she couldn't turn down Julia's offer.

Bella, on the other hand, immediately declined to stay over.

With her lips pursed into a thin line, Bella apologized profusely, "Grandma, I still have a proposal to work on," she said sincerely. "I didn't bring it here because I was in a hurry. I'm so sorry that I can't stay."

Julia's smile faded.

Bella noticed that Julia looked disappointed, so she promised to visit her again soon to lift her spirits.

Julia was hesitant to let Bella go, but she didn't force her to stay.

Feigning displeasure, she huffed, "Aren't you just trying to escape this old hag?"

Bella was taken aback. Her eyes widened as she said, "How could you think that of me, Grandma?" Bella chuckled before continuing, "Once I finish my work, I'll be here every two to three days. Please don't kick me out if I insist on staying here then."

Amused, their warm laughter filled the room. Julia respected Bella's need to leave, reminding her that she could always come to her whenever she was free. Soon after, she asked her driver to take Bella home.

Bella gratefully accepted the offer and said goodbye to everyone before she left.

Elisa continued accompanying Julia to the living room, chatting with her the whole time. Gareth remained silent throughout their conversation, listening intently.

They talked until eleven at night, and Elisa was getting visibly tired. She yawned a few times during their conversation, but Julia continued chattering about excitedly, seemingly unaware of Elisa's condition. Noticing her weary state, Gareth attempted to interrupt them by clearing his throat.

Their gazes immediately turned to Gareth. "Grandma, it's already eleven o'clock," he said. "You might not be tired yet, but you must think about Elisa."

He stood up and smoothed his clothes before walking over to Elisa and taking her hands. "I'm taking her home," he said firmly.

Julia smiled from ear to ear as she listened to them. She was looking forward to a good night's sleep.

After Julia left, Maria led Elisa and Gareth to their respective rooms. Elisa couldn't help but feel a sense of unease.

There was something strange about the rooms. They were side by side, with only a wall in between. Even their balconies were connected.

Elisa couldn't help but smile in absurdity. She was surprised to find that their old home had an unusual layout.

However, she would never have imagined that Julia was the one who had planned the balcony layout, all in anticipation of a moment like this.

Elisa wasn't entirely satisfied with the room, but Gareth suppressed his delight with a blunt and stone-cold expression.
