He just gave up such an outstanding wife when he wanted to.
He must have regretted it! If He isn't worried for her, why would he get me to give her a checkup? Gareth furrowed his eyebrows, ignoring Jeremy's expression.He asked in a low voice, "What about her brain? Will there be any aftereffects?"
"No, she just needs plenty of rest.But since it’s a murder attempt, she needs protection.A gutsy person might just waltz in to harm her in broad daylight.You will never know" Gareth frowned.
No one knew what he was thinking.He seemed to be more uneasy than before.
Rachel and Sheena were anxious.
Sheena spoke up.
"I'll get someone to guard her!"
The Gilio family still had an influence on the streets.
"Leave, all of you."
After ordering them, Gareth pulled out the chair and table a seat at the end af the hed He emanated a noble air, one that was like that of royalty.
Rachel frowned.
"What are you doing? I'll take care of Elisa myself.You'll upset her when she wakes up.That might worsen her condition."
He raised his head at once and stared at her icily. Content (C) Nôv/elDra/ma.Org.
Rachel's legs trembled at his piercing gaze.
His frosty aura was overwhelming to those in the room.
Sheena hesitated before pulling Rachel's arm.
"Rach, you should have some rest too.I need to visit Carle so he doesn't suspect anything."
Carle.
Gareth's expression became more unpleasant at the mention of the name.
On the other hand, Thomas was smiling at them.
"Both of you should rest.You must be tired after staying here for so long.Everything will be fine.Rest assured, we won't upset Ms.Benett."
Rachel wanted to stay, but Sheena pulled her away.She gave Sheena a confused look in the doorway.
"Sheen, why did you do that? You know Elisa hates that man.When she wakes up..."
Sheena sighed before interrupting her.
"I know, but you saw how it is back there.We couldn't have stayed.Besides, the doctor said that Elisa wouldn't be awake for another seven or eight hours.It won't be a problem even if Mr.Wickam stays there.And didn't you notice that he seemed to be pitying Elisa? Let him look at her more.Perhaps he won't be as harsh on her after this."
Rachel paused and raised an eyebrow.
"Are you sure?"She asked skeptically.
Sheena sighed again.
"You shouldn't stay anyway.You're injured too.Don't blame yourself for what happened today.When Elisa comes around, she will blame herself too.You wouldn't be involved if it wasn't for her.The two of you...Both of you would only keep blaming yourself"
Rachel was about to shake her head in disagreement.
Sheena, worried about her condition, pulled her to the room they used before to rest.
"No matter what happens, you need to sleep and rest.When you wake up, Elisa will be awake too.Then, you can talk to her and apologize or do whatever it is you want to do.There's no point in blaming yourself now! Rest.Won't you only be able to accompany Elisa if you recharge your batteries now?"
