The Lawyer’s Romance in Law novel Chapter 117

Chapter 117 Elias Shows Up

These brainless fans don’t even have a clue about what really happened! thought Amanda. At this very moment, however, she had no way to explain herself. She couldn’t even produce any evidence to prove her innocence.

Suddenly, someone picked up a rock and flung it at her.

Amanda simply wasn’t able to get out of the crowd surrounding her. “Ah!” she cried out in pain. After all, it hurt to get hit by a rock. “That’s enough, all of you! You all are throwing false accusations at someone here without knowing anything!” Unable to put up with this anymore, she tried to defend herself. Only then did she realize how feeble her words were.

The mob of fans swore at her at the same time. One of them swore, “How dare you cry foul despite the concrete evidence, you shameless slut! I wonder how someone like you got into the legal profession!”

Another yelled, “Only you entered Grace’s house in that security footage. Who else could it be if not you? Would Grace be so insane as to disfigure her own face?”

A third fan chimed in, “That’s right! You’re really wicked. Does Elias Winters know you’re so cruel? Isn’t he afraid that you might poison him to death?”

Amanda thought this was all going to push her over the edge. It wasn’t like she was a public figure. Her mind went into a whirl, what with the verbal abuse by these obsessive fans and the wall of phones continuously aiming at her. And now, she couldn’t leave at all. Like a lamb waiting to be slaughtered, she had no choice but to let these fans insult her and hurl things at her. She had never felt so aggrieved before-not even when Elias had bullied and humiliated her four years

ago.

Just then, a path was suddenly cleared through the crowd, upon which she heard Yacob bellow furiously, “Get out of the way, all of you, or we’re going to call the police! What you’re doing now already constitutes a crime!”

Is that Yacob’s voice? Amanda’s head was dizzy at this moment. She watched Yacob push those fans out of the way before Elias emerged from behind him.

In just a few steps, the man strode up to her with long, attractive legs, and his tall figure enveloped her completely in his shadow. He was clad in a black shirt with two buttons undone at the collar, and his sleeves were rolled up casually to reveal a silver watch he was wearing. Not only that, he exuded such a noble air through his every pore that one couldn’t help but feel humbled in his presence. Striding up to her, he took her hand and said in a deep voice, “Let’s go.”

Amanda subconsciously retracted her hand, though. It was dirty, with the rotten eggs that had been thrown at her just now… Even she was somewhat disgusted with how disheveled she looked at this very moment.

Elias frowned slightly. After darting a glance at her hand, he took it again, clasping it tightly while taking her out of here.

Recognizing Elias, those fans instantly went into a bigger frenzy. Putting themselves completely in Grace’s shoes, they cried and screamed bitterly. One of them screamed, ‘Mr. Winters! What’s the matter with your judgment?! Why would you fall for this kind of shrew instead of the simple and kindhearted Grace?”

Another cried, “Elias Winters, you’re being blinded by this shrew! Are you still going to defend her now that she’s disfigured Grace’s face? Just what the hell is possessing you?!”

A third person threatened. “You’re gonna get murdered by this woman sooner or later if you keep being with her!”
