Winslow watched her enjoy the food and gradually brought up another matter. "You should leave
Moranta with Gareth after a couple of days."
Gareth would only leave if she went with him.
Moreover, Elisa still had feelings for Gareth. She would not break off from him altogether.
Winslow did not want any other people to find out about this.
Therefore, the best option was to get Elisa to leave Moranta with Gareth.
Furthermore, he was reluctant to let Elisa put herself at risk to investigate the matter.
He planned to investigate himself and find out who wanted to harm her. Then, he would get rid of those
people.
Elisa looked up from the food. "Uncle Winslow, do you want me to leave Moranta with Gareth, or… do
you want me to return to Moranta after I send Gareth home?"
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtWinslow answered without hesitation, "I meant the former."
Elisa instantly understood his intention but refused and was firm with her stance.
"Uncle Winslow, I know you dislike Gareth and warned me about him. However, I know what I should
do. I won't get involved with Gareth, but I won't let myself be sheltered and kept in the dark."
She would not fear no matter what the truth revealed or how powerful the person who sought to kill her
was.
Elisa is brave, just like her mother.
She is as stubborn too!
After all, she is her flesh and blood.
Winslow pursed his lips. "I know you have opinions about this matter. Initially, I shouldn't have told you
so much about it and should have supported you. Now that I discovered your identity, I can't let you risk
yourself. It is much more dangerous for you in Moranta than in your country."
Furthermore, the main reason Winslow urged Elisa to leave was that she would be safer in her country
because it was Gareth's territory.
Since Gareth would not give up on Elisa, Winslow wanted them to return together and let Gareth
protect her.
Elisa understood Winslow's concern.
She smiled and replied, "Uncle Winslow, a person cannot remain sheltered forever. Similarly, a rose
cultivated in the greenhouse cannot withstand wind and rain. I won't let myself be hidden away.
However, you've reminded me about Gareth. I will send him home when the time is right."
Furthermore, I can't stay here for long. Grandma's condition is urgent and needs treatment soon.
There's not much time left.
"I will instruct Brie to follow you," Winslow replied immediately.
Winslow trusted Brie. Although she had a misunderstanding with Elisa previously, Brie's recent
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmperformance showed she could be depended on.
However, Winslow was worried that Brie could not handle everything alone. "I will also tell Mr. North to
follow you. Having the two of them near you puts me at ease."
Mr. North and Brie are Uncle Winslow's most trusted subordinates. If they are with me, who will stay by
Uncle Winslow's side…
Winslow saw through Elisa's concern and smiled. "Why? Are you worried that I have no one to order
around if they follow you?"
"That's not it."
Brie and Mr. North worked for Winslow for many years. He was used to entrusting any matter to them.
Winslow smiled and asked, "What are you concerned about then?"
Elisa explained, "It's not a concern. I feel that they have been with you for so long. You are used to
having them deal with your matters."
"Having them with you puts me at ease. Furthermore, it's not like you're leaving forever."
