Chapter 1807 A Kiss
Chapter 1807 A Kiss
The driver drove smoothly but fast at the same time.
Although Gareth played a small trick on Elisa, it was true that his wound was pulled apart with blood oozing out from it.
Gareth had a preference for black clothes, so one wouldn't notice he was bleeding without observing closely.
For this reason, Mr. Carrera didn't dare to act recklessly. If Gareth wore a light-colored shirt, it might not have been easy for them to escape.
A lump rose in Elisa's throat as tears welled up in her eyes.
Gareth leaned against Elisa's shoulder. The posture was awkward due to his robust body size. It could even aggravate his wound. However, with such proximity, he could smell Elisa's scent, which soothed his mind.
He was startled when he heard Elisa snuffle.
"Are you crying?" Gareth pulled his body up while Elisa quickly supported him and wiped her face. In fact, she hadn't really cried but just choked up.
"Look at me. I'm totally fine." Gareth was flustered as he had never seen Elisa in this state. Holding Elisa's face carefully as if she was the most precious piece of jewelry on earth, Gareth was at a loss for words.
He made himself suffer to invoke Elisa's sympathy but didn't want to see her sorrow.
"Is it painful?" Elisa gently touched Gareth's wound, worrying that she would hurt him.
Gareth shook his head.
"Liar." Elisa's voice cracked. This text is property of Nô/velD/rama.Org.
Gareth said seriously, "I'm not lying. Such a minor injury is nothing. Don't be sad, okay?"
Being reminded of something, Elisa looked at Gareth and asked softly, "Is that why you only wear black clothes all the time?"
Gareth didn't answer, hesitating if he should tell Elisa about it.
Since Elisa had asked, he didn't want to hide it from her; but on the other hand, he didn't want her to worry.
The past had passed, so there was no need to mention it or be distressed.
After hesitating momentarily, Gareth nodded, which made Elisa even more heartbroken.
Having practiced medicine for many years, she had encountered all sorts of injuries and storms. However, she couldn't help feeling dejected when she looked at Gareth's hand and heard his unpleasant past experiences.
Gareth's affection for Eisa grew more intense when he saw her concerned look.
He gulped instinctively as his gaze fell on Elisa's lips. Remembering how she was worried for him just now, he uncontrollably pressed his body against Elisa.
"Elisa." He croaked with heavy breathing.
The next second, he grasped her shoulder and kissed her. Elisa was caught off guard as their lips came into contact. For a moment, she forgot to push him away or react.
They only had one intimate experience three years ago by accident. After the divorce, they never had the opportunity for such an intimate gesture. The kiss stirred ripples in Elisa's heart.
At that moment, countless possibilities flashed through Gareth's mind. Elisa might push him away and slap him in the face. Or, she might throw a fit.
However, all the thoughts disappeared when he felt the long-lost soft sensation.
