Chapter 1233 What Are You Afraid Of?
"You can't keep staying in my house."
Even if he is putting on a show for Grandma, haven't we shown her enough recently? There's no need for this.
Moreover, Grandma doesn't know he is staying at my place.
Gareth ignored her and went straight to his usual bedroom.
Elisa was rendered speechless.
She felt frustrated. A grown man insisted on staying in her house and refused to leave no matter what she said.
What could she do?
Elisa was annoyed but could not do anything except go to her bedroom.
Everything seemed unusually peaceful.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtThe following morning, Elisa and Gareth left for their respective workplaces. Everything returned to normal again.
However, Elisa sometimes felt helpless about the situation with Gareth.
…
Meanwhile, Rachel also arrived at the office. However, she could not muster any interest in work.
It was because her mind was preoccupied with someone. She could not stop thinking about Vincent.
After Vincent left that day, she was able to calm down. However… things did not go well as she had hoped.
Vincent kept contacting her recently and talking to her about some matters. It seemed he was trying to get
involved in her life, or perhaps, he had other intentions. But everything seemed to indicate that he wanted to be
with her.
Rachel believed something must have been wrong with Vincent. She had told him clearly what she thought of him.
Yet, he kept trying to persuade her. It was very unlike Vincent's usual personality.
Although she felt incredulous, she did not pursue the matter. Instead, she decided to ignore him.
He can say whatever he wants. It has nothing to do with me.
However…
Things did not turn out as she had hoped. She thought ignoring him would deter him. Unexpectedly…
"Rachel, someone is asking to see you." Someone came to inform Rachel, leaving her perplexed. Did someone ask
to see me? Am I famous now?
Could it be a potential client asking me to help them fight a lawsuit?
"Where is the person?"
If the person wants me to help with a lawsuit, shouldn't they come in? Why isn't there anyone?
The colleague glanced at her strangely. "He's not here about a lawsuit. He's outside. You will know once you see
him."
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmThe colleague recognized the person outside and had always thought he and Rachel were enemies. Yet, they
seemed so close that no one could get between them.
Previously, some of the women were interested in Vincent upon seeing him. However, none of them had a chance
to get close to him. He disregarded them entirely.
The women could not help but feel disappointed because they had no way to approach him.
All they could do was watch Rachel and Vincent quarrel whenever they were together.
Rachel's eyes flashed with confusion as she left the office.
Her expression changed when she saw that the man waiting outside was the same man she had kept thinking about
recently. She avoided his gaze and immediately returned to her office.
"Rachel."
The man called out to her. Although Rachel was desperate to return to the office, she hesitated and paused. Before
she could do anything else, Vincent grabbed her hand.
Rachel scrunched her face with annoyance and struggled to free herself. "Let go!"
However, Vincent had no plans to let go. He looked into her eyes and said, "If I let go, what then? Will you keep
hiding from me and not replying to my messages? You weren't like this before. Rachel, what are you scared of?"
