Chapter 250 Did You and Daddy Argue?
"Amanda, I do not mean that." The man frowned.
Amanda coldly snorted. "I realized that you guys really are something. What are you, your fiancée, and your future father-in-law up to? He asked me to draft a prenup, but she told me that you guys have a plan and that you love me. If I hadn't seen her look for you to try on the attire and thought about the way you protected me, I honestly would have believed everything."
The man was speechless, and he couldn't help but think that Stephanie was causing issues for him by doing stupid things.
As the tears welled up in Amanda's eyes, she continued, "Elias, I really don't know what the hell you want. What do you want? Is there something valuable within me?"
She never expected that the man could still find something valuable within her; otherwise, why would he continuously torture her by giving her hope and disappointing her?
"Mommy… Are you and Dad arguing?" Aiden looked up at her and asked softly.
Only then did Amanda realize that her son was still with her and that she should not argue in front of him.
"Nope. Daddy is busy with work, so let's head back first."
At that, she carried Aiden and left without even looking back. Jean also quickly rushed up.
When Elias saw that the door was closed, he wearily closed his eyes.
It wasn't long before the office phone rang.
He answered it, after which Jean's voice was heard. "Mr. Winters, it's time for the meeting. Please head over to the meeting room. Also, I'll send Miss Bailey off."
"Okay."
After hanging up the phone, Elias couldn't help but lean against the chair because the pain he felt caused him to grunt and frown.
He sat up straight again.
He never thought about using the sulfuric acid matter to force Amanda to accept him, but he merely reacted subconsciously.
Maybe Amanda was more important than he thought.
However, Elias had forgotten about the email in his inbox that contained the stimulated portrait of the Allegra Family's second daughter twenty years later.
Since he was not in the mood to read the email, he gathered the documents and materials before heading out of the office.
At this moment, Stephanie was outside the office, playing on her cell phone.
The moment she saw him exiting, she quickly put her phone away and asked, "Your ex-wife… She's not mad anymore, I hope?"
I saw her face earlier. She looks terrible.
Elias did not bother responding, so he walked straight for the elevators and prepared to head to the meeting room.
When Stephanie saw that he ignored her, she rushed after him. "Say something. I'm talking to you. Are you deaf or something?"
Suddenly, the man stopped in his tracks.
She also followed suit and almost collided with him.
"You have forgotten what you promised me a long time ago."
"What did I promise you?" Stephanie was dazed since she couldn't think of anything after being frightened by his anger.
At the sight of her expression, Elias was furious and sneered in disdain.
"Looks like you have forgotten everything. It seems Crispin can forget about having a good life!"
His expression was dark as he entered the elevator after speaking.
