He paused for a moment before answering the call.
"What is it?"
His tone remained cold as ice.
The caller was stunned for a moment before scolding, "You brat.How dare you talk to me with such an attitude?"
Gareth pursed his lips.He did not say anything but waited for the caller to get to the point.
After a brief pause, the caller finally said, "I've sent out all the invitations.
There is only half a month left until your engagement ceremony.
During this time, you should go out with her more often.
After the engagement ceremony, you should bring her on a holiday for a month"
Gareth’s expression darkened immediately.
"You want me to abandon work for one month to go on a holiday with her? How did you come up with this idea?"
"You!"
Darren took a deep breath to control his anger.
‘Then, he said sternly, "Weren't you satisfied with the plan by Benett Corporation? Let your father lead it.He can take over your work"
Gareth furrowed his brow.
"I'm afraid the engagement will not proceed."
Darren thought he had misheard.He paused for a moment and confirmed Gareth had induced refused to proceed with the engagement.
Thus, Darren burst into fury. Exclusive content from NôvelDrama.Org.
"What nonsense is this? I've sent out the invitations, and you now tell me you can't proceed.You..."
Gareth interrupted him, "You should take the invitations back.I still have some work.I'll talk to you tonight when I'm home."
After saying that, Gareth did not bother to wait for Darren's response but hung up straight away.
When Darren called again, Gareth did not answer but went to the meeting room and gave Thomas his phone before starting the meeting.
Time passed quickly.
Carle had already been in the hospital for three whole days.
Elisa kept talking to him to trigger his emotions, and he had shown signs of waking up.
Everyone was excited and nervous.
They were also worried and scared that it was all for nothing.
No one dared to think too much about it.
After all, Carle had shown signs of movement more than once.
It was the fourth day’s morning.
Elisa sat beside Carle and could not help but sigh softly.
She even sniffled as if she had cried before this.
Then, she began to say sadly, "Carle, as I said before, I will only accompany you for three days.If you don't wake up, it means you don't want me here.In order not to get in the way of your recovery, I..."
At this point, Elisa noticed a frown on Carle's brow.
Even his hand moved.She was stunned for a moment and pretended not to notice anything.She slowly repeated her desire to leave and said, "I'll leave now.I will not mention this matter again in the future.Once you wake up, just pretend you didn't hear anything I told you here.We..."
Elisa sniffled and saw Carle's hand begin to move slowly.He seemed to want to grab her hand.
Elisa felt she needed to trigger him a little more and said tearfully, "Carle, let's return to being normal friends...Goodbye."
She got up as soon as she finished speaking and deliberately retreated a couple of steps, causing the chair to drag loudly against the floor.
Carle, whose eyes were closed, could hear Elisa getting up to leave.He parted his lips.
"No..."
His voice was so soft that Elisa would not have noticed if she had not seen his lips move.
As Elisa took another step, Carle suddenly called out in despair, "No!"
He immediately opened his eyes and grabbed Elisa's hand in panic.
