Wanna Remarry Me？No Way! novel Chapter 823

She was already injured. Those lurking enemies were still after her. If she showed herself in public, chances were, they would attack her, which would tamper with the investigation. It would be better for him to do it alone.

Gareth said indifferently, "I dropped by the police station just now and gave them a sum of money."

Elisa's eyes flickered as she made sense of his words.

She nodded, "Right. It had to be done.

She knew Gareth's next course of action. The Phoenix Bridge was surrounded by scenic views and was indeed worthy of being developed. But once the development took place, everything would change as well.

The absence of jurisdiction had encumbered law and order in this place. Sooner or later, the federal government would find a way to subdue this place.

The most pivotal step to undertake was to make amendments and consolidate law and order in this place. Eventually, progressiveness would take place.

"So, how long will you be here?"

"Until you're healed."

Elisa was stunned, "No, no need. I am mobile now, and I can go back any time."

Gareth snorted coldly. He had just sounded her for being stubborn, and now she did it again?

Elisa seemed to get his notion. She pursed her lips and bit her tongue.

"How did you feel today? Does your wound still hurt?"

Elisa seemed to be oblivious to his emotions. She fixed his gaze on him and asked, "What did you tell Grandma after she told you all these?"

He sneered coldly, "What do you think?"

His composure faded in that instant.

His gaze sharpened.

Elisa furrowed, and she looked at him puzzled, "I know you want to please Grandma, but are you going to wait until the day she's gone? I do not intend to get married again. But what about you? Are you going to let time slip away and have no child of your own? How can the Wickam family sustain its bloodline without an heir?"

Elisa said the last sentence with a hint of sarcasm.
