Chapter 104 She Was Too Dumb
This man actually laid his hands on her-because of Grace. Even though his attitude toward her was so terrible four years ago, he had never laid a hand on her.
Amanda’s emotions erupted in an instant. Tears welled up in her eyes, and her fists were clenched tightly at her sides.
After Elias slapped her, he immediately regretted it. I actually hit Amanda…
“Amanda… I’m sorry. L
The man reached out to touch her cheek, but Amanda slapped his hand away. “Don’t touch me!”
Elias had a severe headache. He slumped on the couch, his breathing becoming rapid. The figure of the woman in front of him seemed blurred.
“Amanda, I’m sorry… But you really shouldn’t have ruined Grace’s face. You know how important looks are to a woman…”
Before the man could finish his sentence, Amanda interrupted him again, “Elias! From now on, we’re done! Neither of us should bother each other anymore! Since you don’t believe me, then never come to find me again! I don’t need you! I never want to see you again! I hate you! I loathe you!”
After saying that, Amanda turned around and left her office, slamming the door heavily.
The sound of the door slamming was like a heavy stone crashing into the man’s chest, suffocating him and leaving his face as white as a sheet.
Elias leaned against the couch, wanting to get up and chase after her, but he had no strength at all. He felt heavy and his head felt like it was about to explode.
Amanda walked out of the office in tears. The secretary, who was making a phone call, immediately stood up upon seeing her. “Miss Bailey, what happened? What’s going on?”
The secretary had also noticed the red handprint on Amanda’s cheek. Was she slapped? Did Mr. Winters do it?No way? How could that be?
The secretary’s heart burned with curiosity, and as Amanda headed toward the elevator, she turned around and whispered to another secretary.
“What’s going on? How could Mr. Winters lay his hands on a woman? Did you see it? Miss Bailey has a handprint on her face.

“I saw it, definitely. Miss Bailey came out crying too. These wealthy people are so despicable. Did he make some inappropriate demands that Miss Bailey rejected?”
Just then, Simon walked over with a folder, preparing to discuss a case with Amanda.
Unexpectedly, he encountered the two secretaries gossiping.
Simon tapped the table with the folder. “Gossiping during work hours? Should I give you both a day’s leave so you can find a cafe to chat?”
The two secretaries immediately straightened up, and one of them reported to Simon, “Mr. Nicholson, it seems like Miss Bailey has been bullied.”
“What? Who dares to bully her? What happened?” Simon’s expression immediately changed.
“Mr. Winters from Winters Enterprise came here. Miss Bailey went in for a while and then came out crying. It seems she was slapped. We don’t know exactly what happened….”
“What?! Where is Amanda?” Simon couldn’t believe his ears. Elias actually laid his hands on Amanda?
“I don’t know. She didn’t say anything when we asked her. She just left crying. On the other hand, Mr. Winters is still in the office. He hasn’t come out yet”
As soon as the secretary finished speaking, Simon, full of anger, rushed into the office. How could a man lay his hands on a woman?
Simon kicked open the office door and indeed saw the man sitting on the couch in the reception
arca.
He charged forward, his voice filled with anger. “Elias! What do you think you’re doing laying your hands on a woman? You…”
Simon approached the couch but was stunned by the scene in front of him.
Elias was slumped on the couch, unconscious. He had a pale face and a large pool of blood around him…
How could this happen?
