Chapter 1052 Hanging Up Five Times in a Row
Elisa asked, "Mr. May, is Gareth in a meeting?"
Thomas paused and chose to tell the truth. "No. What's the matter, Ms. Benett?"
Elisa exhaled and said, "I called him five times, but he's ignoring me. Please call him and tell him that
Grandma is in poor health and it's severe. Tell him to call me at once! And don't tell anyone about this.
It's crucial!"
Elisa's voice was solemn, and she emphasized how urgent the matter was!
Elisa had never exaggerated anything to scare others and wouldn't lie about such things. Thomas
realized something wasn't right, so he immediately said, "Alright. I'll call Mr. Wickam right now."
"Quickly."

After that, Elisa took the initiative to end the call, as though saving time.
She gripped her cell phone tightly and walked ahead as if to escape from Wickam Manor.
This time, she didn't have to wait long. When she saw an incoming call from Gareth, Elisa answered
without a second thought.
It seemed like an illusion. Elisa had just answered the call when she felt cold air from the other end.
Even if she didn't hear the man's voice, it was as though she could feel a menacing atmosphere.
It seemed like Gareth was saying, Elisa Benett, you better have something to tell me. You're playing
with fire if you used Grandma as an excuse!
Elisa couldn't be bothered and said tentatively, "Gareth?"
She needed to verify if it was him.

"Speak." Gareth's magnetic voice was cold and impatient.
Once Elisa confirmed it was him, she immediately said, "Gareth, please listen carefully to what I have
to say next! There's no need for me to joke about Grandma with you. Grandma is currently in bad
shape! Her lungs! I suspect that it's a malignant tumor."
It was tough for Elisa to say the last few words.
"What nonsense are you spouting?!" Gareth's brows furrowed tightly, and his expression was icy!
Elisa took a slight breath. "I don't want this to happen, but we can't delay it! Trust me this time, Gareth!
Think of a way to take Grandma for a check-up!"
It was difficult for Elisa to say it. At that moment… she couldn't quite restrain herself, and her voice was
tearful.
"Why do you say so?"
"Don't bother about that! Think of a way for Grandma to go for a check-up immediately. Isn't her regular

physical examination tomorrow? Tell her that tomorrow can't work and it has to be pushed to today!"
Elisa's voice was solemn, and Gareth's face darkened.
He used to think Elisa was troublesome, but he was prejudiced against her. In reality, she was mature,
gentle, kind, and generous. She would never joke with him about Grandma right now. Still, he was at a
loss after Elisa suddenly told him about such a serious matter.
"Trust me, Gareth! I beg you! Take Grandma for a check-up! You can find an excuse! If you need me,
I'll go back right now. I looked for an excuse to leave and call you."
Gareth's face was dark, and he said, "I understand. Go back to Wickam Manor now, and I'll come to
pick Grandma up."
"Alright." Elisa was remarkably cooperative. She ended the call and turned to walk back to Wickam
Manor.
When she arrived, Julia was astonished. "Why did you come back, Liz? Did you leave something
behind?"
