The Lawyer’s Romance in Law novel Chapter 124

Chapter 124 Elias Went Down on His Knees?!

Grace slumped onto the bed, her face pallid as tears flowed down her cheeks. He saw it and heard that recording, too. That’s why he wants to kill me now…

Her entire being seemed to have fallen into a deep abyss, and she could no longer hear the medical staff around her who were urging her not to cry because it would cause inflammation to her wound.

A loud boom echoed; a bolt of lightning flashed outside the window followed by thunder. The sky was covered in dark clouds and looked like it was about to rain soon. Grace shook out of her stupor as her eyes darted to the window, where she caught sight of the cloudy sky which reflected

her current mood.

Even if she had her brother as a trump card, Elias would never place his trust in her after this. She was also certain that he would do everything in his power to avoid her like the plague unless he could personally send her to Hades himself.

It started pouring a few minutes after Amanda arrived at work at the law firm.

“Why did it rain all of a sudden…” she muttered as she stepped out of the elevator and stared at the pea-sized raindrops pelting the windows.

Suddenly, Simon’s voice came from behind her, saying, “Maybe the skies are celebrating my successful proposal. It’s crying tears of joy.”

Amanda jumped in surprise and spun around. When she saw that it was only Simon, she sighed in relief. “You didn’t even make a sound when you walked.”

“You were too focused. That’s why you didn’t notice me.” He had a cup of coffee in his hand that. he had just bought. Then, he passed it to her.

She accepted the coffee with a quirk of her lips. Thanks.”

“You don’t have to thank your future husband for this. His tone was amorous, as though they were already married. Yet, for some unknown reason, the more he acted this way, the more uncomfortable it made her feel, and the more she wanted to flee from him.

When she didn’t answer, Simon thought that she was just shy and said with a smile, “Let’s pick up Aiden together in the afternoon and take him out for dinner. I haven’t seen him in a while and kinda miss him. We can also discuss the wedding in the meantime.”

“What? Wedding?” Amanda gasped loudly and quickly covered her mouth when she realized that she was being too loud.

He chuckled and couldn’t help but find her astonished reaction utterly adorable. “Why are you shocked? You didn’t have a proper wedding in the past because it was a secret marriage. This time

we’ll have a grand wedding so you can have a taste of the happiness of being a bride.”

Amanda’s heart wrenched at the mention of this. Back then, she hoped day after day that Elias would hold a wedding for her. She would be content even if it was just a simple ceremony because she merely wanted to experience a blissful wedding with him. Sadly, Elias kept putting it off with various excuses until she was pregnant and presented her with a divorce settlement instead.

“Isn’t it too early to discuss the wedding now? Are your parents aware of this? Have they given their blessings?”

Her gut feeling told her that his parents wouldn’t agree to this wedding. Their son was outstanding and good-looking, so whyever would he marry a divorcee with a child?

He took her hand in his. “Don’t worry. I’ll take care of my parents and bring you to meet them once we’ve settled our wedding-related matters. They’ll like you, and Aiden as well.”

There was nothing she could say, and she simply smiled in reply. Her chest felt stuffy, but she couldn’t describe the strange emotions swirling within her heart. Just then, thunder boomed through the sky outside, and she looked outside. Why does it sound like the thunder is warning me against my sudden marriage to Simon? Or am I overthinking things?

Regardless, they had their careers to get back to. So, they were both busy with their work for the rest of the day, and the rain didn’t stop throughout the day. After work, they went to the kindergarten to pick up Aiden and planned to take him to the amusement park. Unfortunately, it was still raining cats and dogs and Simon had no choice but to send the mother and son home.
