Chapter 2044 Paying A Visit

Elísa was not in a hurry to rush Gareth.

The ward suddenly fell silent, which was a bit unusual.

After a while, Harry finally said, “Indeed, such a possibility cannot be ruled out.”

Elisa heaved a sigh of relief as if a heavy burden had been lifted. Thankfully, Gareth believed in me. Otherwise, I wouldn’t know what to do.

Elisa patted her chest, her face filled with relief after a narrow escape. “Thank goodness you’re a smart person.”

Gareth curled his lips. “So, if I don’t believe you, does that make me a fool?”

How is it that he still has the mood to joke around at a time like this? Elisa glared at Gareth and asked, “When you went to check the surveillance footage that day, did you look at the footage of the water’s surface?”

Upon hearing that, Gareth was taken aback for a moment. He then shook his head. “I only checked the exit surveillance, which showed that you were the only one there before. The only places you went to were the hospital and the company, so I didn’t look into it any further.”

After all, no matter how one looked at it, it would still seem like an accident.

No one would think it could be a murder case.

If it hadn’t been Elisa herself who said those things, perhaps Gareth wouldn’t have believed them if they came from anyone else.

Elisa nodded. “The top priority now is to retrieve the surveillance footage. We can’t let them clean it up or get it deleted by someone.”

The two exchanged a glance and quickly came to an agreement.

Given the gravity of the situation, Gareth decided to make the trip himself.

After having lunch with Elisa, Gareth drove to Mount Lusetonas.

Accompanied by Bella, Elisa arrived outside the intensive care unit.

That was a private VIP ward. It was sterile inside, so no one was allowed in. However, there was a large transparent glass through which they could see what was happening inside.

Elisa rested her face against the glass, looking somewhat helplessly inside.

Rachel’s body was covered in numerous tubes, some for oxygen supply, others for monitoring vital signs.

The fluctuating EKG was the only proof that she was still alive. Obviously, it was an unbearable situation.

Elisa’s hands clenched into helpless fists. If she could, she would rather be the one lying there.

Bella gently advised from the side, “Elisa, your health isn’t fully recovered yet. It’s not good for you to get too emotional. Let’s go back. We shouldn’t disturb Rachel’s rest.”

Elisa’s feet felt as if they were filled with lead, unable to take a step. She couldn’t bear to take her eyes off the ran one, lying there with her fate unknown? What should I do if she spends the rest of her life lying there?

“Weren’t we supposed to go see the Northern Lights together? You haven’t fulfilled your promise yet. If you dare to leave this world now, I’ll drag you back from the underworld. In those cases you handled before, the clients were all vulnerable groups.

Without you, they can’t afford a lawyer, and they’ll get bullied. So many things are waiting for you to do, so you must wake up when you’ve had enough rest.. Don’t just lie there.” Elisa murmured through the glass. Bella, who was standing nearby, heard her and felt. a pang in her heart.

On one hand, it was disheartening to see a once vibrant person spend the latter half of their life lying in bed, barely alive.

On the other hand, Bella didn’t want to see the spirited Elisa trapped in a lifetime of memories and guilt, unable to break free.

This shouldn’t have been the end for the two of them.
