No Chance of Remarriage: Get Lost

Chapter 2041 Reminiscence. 

Gareth also realized he had crossed the line and smiled sheepishly as he pulled his hand back.

The atmosphere suddenly became somewhat awkward.

“You…”

“I…”

Either both of them would remain silent, or they would speak at the same time. It was unclear where this unspoken understanding between them came from.

The two exchanged a glance and grinned.

Gareth spoke up. “You go first.”

Elisa shook her head. “You first.”

Gareth refused, insisting, “I don’t have much to say. It’s just that the atmosphere was awkward earlier, so I wanted to say a few words to lighten the mood. Your matter is more important.”

Upon hearing that, Elisa stopped holding back and asked, “I wanted to ask, how long was I unconscious? What exactly happened on the day at Mount Lusetonas? I only remember drowning. I don’t know anything about what happened after that. I didn’t even know that Rachel came to rescue me.”

With a sigh, Gareth began to answer her questions one by one.

“You’ve been unconscious for three days and two nights. Bella and I have been taking turns to stay by your side, hoping to be there when you wake up. Rachel has also been in the intensive care unit all this

time.” Gareth appeared concerned that Elisa might worry, so he added reassuringly, “But you need not worry. Vincent is watching over Rachel. Nothing will go wrong.

Elisa nodded, a trace of sorrow inevitably crossing her eyes. This content © Nôv/elDr(a)m/a.Org.

Gareth continued, “At Mount Lusetonas, I came out after changing my clothes, only to see Bella standing anxiously on the shore, calling for help. The second she saw me, she immediately asked me to rescue you and Rachel, saying that you two had fallen into the water. Vincent had come out with me and promptly jumped into the water. We each saved one of you.”

Elisa’s expression remained somber throughout. In truth, Gareth did not wish to stir up her unpleasant memories. However, there were certain things that he could not understand, and he needed her to clarify- them.

“When Rachel was pulled from the water, her breathing was already very faint. Vincent performed CPR on the spot and immediately called an ambulance. At the hospital, the doctor said that your brain was severely deprived of oxygen, and you might not wake up. Even if you did, you might become mentally impaired. As for Rachel, it’s possible because of how much water was in her lungs…” Gareth seemed to lack the courage to continue, not wanting to upset Elisa further.

Elisa had already learned about the cruel possibility from Bella. She did not probe further, merely inquiring, “Where was Kaylee at that time?”

Kaylee was never mentioned once in the entire story.

This was something that Elisa found extremely suspicious.

Ultimately, she still had doubts about Kaylee.

Gareth did not understand why Elisa suddenly asked about Kaylee and said truthfully, “The situation was very chaotic at the time, and I wasn’t paying attention. It seemed… it seemed like she wasn’t among the crowd.”

After pondering for a moment, he gave her a definitive answer. “Indeed, she wasn’t there.”

Elisa did not doubt what Gareth said, for he typically would not speak with such certainty.

He would not use definitive language unless he was absolutely certain. Essentially, this was how people in high society conducted themselves.

They would refrain from speaking too confidently about matters they were unsure about to avoid embarrassment later.

Moreover, she was aware of Gareth’s photographic memory.

He could roughly remember any contact with just a glance, let alone recall the presence of a person in a particular setting. So naturally, he would not make a mistake.
