The Lawyer’s Romance in Law novel Chapter 180

Chapter 180 She Is Breaking Down

Amanda took the tissue and wiped her tears. "Where should we go now to find Aiden? I'm really worried about him…"

"You drive back home and wait for me there. I'll search. Grandpa can only hide him in a few places, and if you think about it, he's still in his hands. He's his great-grandson, and his love for him is no less than ours."

Understanding that Amanda was emotional, Elias decided to search for Aiden alone. Therefore, he believed it would be more appropriate for her to wait at home.

"No! I'm going with you!" She could not bear the thought of staying at home while her mind was consumed with worries about Aiden.

"Hey—" He wanted to respond but was interrupted by her.

"I understand what you're thinking, but I wanna go with you. I can't bear to stay at home. I'm too worried about Aiden."

"Alright. You drive, and I'll navigate." After all, he still had an injury on his foot, which made it inconvenient for him to drive.

Nodding, she composed herself and started the car, slowly driving away. "Where should we go now?"

He leaned back in the seat, pondering the properties registered under Howard's name. Where would he hide Aiden…

After a moment of contemplation, he spoke up, "Let's head to the hotel first."

Amanda was taken aback. "Would Grandpa hide Aiden in a hotel?" Why would he think that? Why would Grandpa hide Aiden in a hotel? It doesn't make sense.

Elias explained, "You can't guess or understand Grandpa's thinking. Sometimes the most dangerous place can also be the safest, and a hotel isn't a place where we can freely search."

She was rendered speechless. Is Grandpa's thinking really that intricate?

As Amanda pondered, she realized that someone capable of upholding the legacy of the Winters Family could not possibly be a mere ordinary old man.

Without uttering another word, she drove directly to the Chateau Hotel, one of the properties owned by Winters Enterprises.

Arriving at the hotel, she quietly trailed behind Elias. It was the Winters Family's territory, so she believed he was better equipped to handle the situation.

They went straight to the manager's office.

When the hotel manager noticed Elias, he promptly rose from his seat and respectfully greeted, "Mr. Winters, what brings you here today? How may I assist you?"

Elias sat on the couch in the guest area. "Has my grandfather given you any instructions or requests lately?"

The manager appeared utterly confused, not understanding the situation. He glanced at Amanda standing nearby before looking at Elias. "No, I haven't received any calls from Old Mr. Winters in a long time. The last time I saw him was at the birthday banquet. May I ask what's going on?"

Elias coldly glanced at the manager. "Are you sure? If you dare to withhold any information from me and I discover it, you'll be dismissed from your position. You've got to know I hold the ultimate authority within Winters Enterprises now."

The manager swiftly comprehended the gravity of the situation. He understood that the Winters Family was now under Elias' authority as the future heir. Any offense toward him would undoubtedly result in severe consequences.

"Mr. Winters, how could I dare to do such a thing? I assure you; I haven't hidden anything from you. I haven't seen Old Mr. Winters or received any orders from him. If I have, I shall be struck by lightning." He was on the verge of swearing to God, his face displaying unwavering loyalty.
