The Lawyer’s Romance in Law novel Chapter 233

Chapter 233 I'm Not Sure if I Should Say This

"Stephanie? The same Stephanie, who's the young lady of Allegra Group? Jack Allegra's daughter?"

Elias replied, "That's right."

After he was done, he turned around and left, leaving Grace alone with a shocked expression. She wondered how things could change so quickly. Did Elias not say he wanted to get back with Amanda? Why did he suddenly have a change of heart and decide to marry Jack's daughter, Stephanie?

If she could not even deal with Amanda, how was she going to deal with Stephanie? Stephanie was a real young lady from a wealthy family, which meant she was a great match with Elias.

"That's impossible… He can't change his mind so quickly. What's more, they have a child together." Grace could not figure it out because Elias was not an irresponsible person. He had previously stayed with her for many years despite not having any feelings for her, so how could he abandon Amanda and marry Stephanie after having a child with Amanda?

It was so confusing that she had forgotten about Howard's accident.

…

Elias arrived at the scene of the incident alone and began recalling how his grandfather rolled down the stairs according to the butler's description. He fell into deep thought while looking at the top of the stairs, seemingly able to see how much despair his grandfather felt when tumbling those steps.

At that moment, a woman's voice suddenly appeared. "Mr. Winters, you're back."

The voice interrupted Elias' thoughts, and he turned to see it was Lexi, the servant who used to care for his mother. Lexi had been free since his mother was admitted to a nursing home.

At the sight of Elias, she seemed somewhat shocked, and her eyes filled with fear. To be fair, though, barely any servants at the Winters Residence were unafraid of him.

"Why are you here?"

"I'm now responsible for cleaning and need to clean the railings. I didn't know you were here. I'll come back later."

Lexi was about to leave, but he stopped her. "Wait."

She turned around. "Is there anything you need?"

"When Grandpa fell that day… Were you at home?" he asked.

That question shocked her because she thought he was suspicious of her, so she involuntarily felt nervous. "Yes, I was."

Seeing how nervous she was, he narrowed his eyes. "Why are you nervous?"

At that point, her voice began to tremble. "I… I'm a little nervous because you might suspect me of something. There have been rumors about Old Mr. Winters arguing with a woman before he fell, and you're looking everywhere for that woman now. I'm afraid you might think it's me."

He frowned. "I didn't expect the news to spread so quickly. But don't worry. I won't suspect you of anything. I just want to know if you remember anything peculiar from that day."

At the mention of something strange, Lexi suddenly recalled a matter but was unsure whether to tell him. "Mr. Winters, I'm not sure if I should say this…"
