Chapter 187 I Can No Longer Protect You

Elisa’s face immediately darkened. Linda revealed her true colors and said so much to me. Clearly, she

is not recording the conversation now. Even if she is recording now to lure me to speak, I’m not afraid

anyway. So what if it’s posted online and everyone hates me? I only live for myself now. Would their

vicious comments affect my livelihood?

With that thought in mind, she sneered at Linda. “You know very well why the events happened that

night!”

Linda’s expression immediately changed after hearing that, but in the next second, she gritted her teeth

resentfully. “The man I love the most is Gareth. Why would I set you up with him?”

“That’s right. That’s never been your plan, but what happened back then was just a mistake, wasn’t it?”

Looking at the fury on Linda’s face, Elisa was even more sure of her speculation.

Linda’s plan was to set her up with other men so that she could no longer be associated with the Benett

family. Unbeknownst to her, Gareth was also being framed by others, so it turned out that they were in

the same room that night.

When Linda found out that they slept with each other, she was so furious that she almost lost her mind.

However, Linda had to suppress her emotions because Elisa’s father was still around, and she was not

in control of the Benett family back then. Hence, she could only gulp down her hatred.

Trying to control her emotions, Linda let out a cold snort. “Elisa Benett, I’m not related to whatever that

happened in the past. Don’t you dare push the blame on me! Do you think others will believe you even

if you publicize it? Everyone who knows the story now thinks of you as a woman who would do

anything in order to get into his bed.”

Anger surged through Elisa’s veins when she heard that.

She glowered at Linda ferociously, sending chills down the latter’s spine that instant. However, in the

next moment, Elisa recollected herself and chuckled. “So what?”

So what if they think of me like that?

Linda froze upon hearing that. In the past, Elisa would hate to admit this. Since when has it become

such a trivial matter to her? The change in her temperament is rather terrifying.

“So, you did so many tricks today just to tell me that Gareth is yours and that I don’t stand a chance

with him anymore. Am I right?” With that, Elisa turned around to look at Linda, who was momentarily

stunned.

I was leading the conversation just now, yet the tides suddenly switched.

Before waiting for her reply, Elisa suddenly laughed lightly. “Linda, look at how well you put on a show

in the past. You were treated as a goddess, and everyone thought of you as a sweet angel. But look at

what you did today! You turned off my car camera and even said so many spiteful things! Do you think

you still look as innocent as before?”

Linda’s expression slightly changed. It’s all your fault that I’m like this today!

She shut her eyes and took a deep breath. Yes, it’s Elisa who angered me so much that I forgot about

my demeanor.

Elisa gave her a half-smirk. I’m not just the daughter who is estranged from the family; I’m also a

lawyer who knows that every sentence could be evidence.

She had the habit of bringing a recorder with her, and she had even lost count of the hard drives she

had used over a year.

Regardless, Linda was smart enough to stop herself from revealing the fact that she was responsible

for hooking up Elisa and Gareth together.

Taking another deep breath, Linda said, “Elisa, if you know where you stand, stop competing with me.

Look at how miserable your life is right now! As your elder cousin sister, I will take care of you so that

you don’t have to worry about money. But if you still insist upon opposing me, I can no longer protect

you from the other issues.”
