Chapter 1726 There's No Other Way

It was also because of Darren, Gareth’s grandfather, playing matchmaker.

But she didn’t say anything. Vincent realized he had misspoken and quickly corrected himself. He explained, “I... I didn’t mean that. I meant in the past. Gareth has changed and genuinely repented. He wants to make it up to you. Ignore what I just said!”

Vincent was very impatient at that moment, but it made Elisa smile. She asked, “It’s too late. I heard what you said. Do you think I can ignore it?”

She wasn’t deaf, so she naturally couldn’t ignore it.

Vincent was annoyed at that moment.

What did I do? How could I have loose lips and say such things?!f Gareth found out, he would kill me. I’m really amazing. I brought up something I shouldn’t hove!

“Alright, stop being so persistent. I’m busy, so I’m leaving. If Rachel considers you and if you’re trustworthy, I’ll help you. But if she isn’t interested in you, I’ll advise you to work hard. Don’t try to make use of me.”

After that, Elisa turned.

But Vincent still chased after her. Before she could say anything, he rushed to say, “It’s not about Rachel. I... Um, can you give me a ride?”

Elisa was flabbergasted.

She stared at Vincent in astonishment. She didn’t believe what Vincent had just said.

Was he asking her for a ride now in his current position? Other than Rachel linking them together, she couldn’t think of why else he asked.

Vincent saw that Elisa was surprised and astonished, so he quickly said, “I’ve been having a bit of a situation, and I don’t have money fora ride back. And now... Ah, I can’t ask Gareth to drive and send me back in his current state, can I? Also, I have some work that I want Rachel to help me with.”

Elisa was dumbfounded.

Being in a tough spot and having no money for a ride back were two different things. No matter what Vincent did, he wouldn’t have landed in such a difficult situation.

Moreover, how did he come here if he was really in such a dire circumstance?

Elisa wasn’t too direct. “Isn’t Jeremy in the hospital? You’re good friends. Are you afraid of troubling him? Furthermore, even if Gareth is in the hospital, Thomas isn’t. Gareth has so many cars in his garage. If you need a car, you can call Thomas and ask him to send one over, right?”

What Elisa said made sense.

But if he did as Elisa had said, how could he help Gareth?

“This is urgent. I can’t wait for Thomas to send a car over. I’m not going to hide my miserable state from you. I hitched a ride with my colleague to come here. Since you were here, I wanted you to take me to Rachel.”

Vincent smiled in embarrassment.

Elisa shook her head. “Since you’re concerned about this and in such a miserable state, ask Gareth to lend you some money.”

Gareth was wealthy. How would he be stingy with his good friend that he had grown up with?

As she spoke, her gaze fell on Vincent.

She didn’t have any other intention. She wanted to see what other excuse Vincent could use at such a point.

To her surprise, Vincent sighed deeply. “How could I bear to ask another man for help? I have no other way. I just wanted you to take me to Rachel...”
