The Lawyer’s Romance in Law novel Chapter 251

Chapter 251 Amanda's Blurred Identity

Late at night.

The meeting lasted three hours before Elias emerged from the meeting room.

"Elias, you'll have to keep a close eye on the project. Otherwise, your aunt will make a move."

"I know."

Jack emerged from the meeting room with Elias but never expected to see his daughter waiting for them outside.

"Steph, what are you doing here? Waiting for Elias, are you?"

Elias also stopped and noticed Stephanie's nervous look. He didn't need to ask to know that she was worried he would lay a hand on Crispin.

"I'm waiting for Elias, Dad. You can head home first. We still need to try on the wedding attire. If we don't, we really will be pressed for time," Stephanie replied.

Jack nodded upon hearing that. "Okay, then. I'll head off first. Come back once you guys are done with the trying."

At that, he left.

Seeing that it was just him and Stephanie, Elias didn't spare her another glance and headed in the direction of the elevator.

She hurried toward him and said, "If I have caused your ex-wife trouble or any misunderstanding between you two, I can explain things to her. I really didn't mean it, so please don't cause Crisp any trouble. He's already going through hell at his place…"

"You have underestimated the endurance of those like him. In the name of wealth and power for eternity, this suffering is considered nothing." The man sneered.

"Don't gauge his chivalry with your own measure. Crisp is not such a man. He loves me."

Stephanie was so naive that she thought there was true love between her and Crispin.

Meanwhile, Elias could not be bothered to talk to her anymore since it did not even bother him.

The elevator doors slowly opened with a ding, and he walked inside. "You don't have to follow me. I'm not in the mood to lay a hand on your man, but I'm warning you once more—don't look for my ex-wife again. I also won't need you to poke your nose in my matters. If you ever run into her, just step aside and leave her to enjoy her peaceful life."

At that, he pressed the close button.

Before Stephanie could even say anything, the elevator doors closed.

Does that mean he won't lay a hand on Crisp?

At that, she exhaled in a sigh of relief.

Back in the office, Elias sat on his chair, but he couldn't fully lean back because of his injured back.

He placed his right arm on the table and squeezed his brows before he tiredly closed his eyes. Although he really wanted to sleep, there were too many things to do, which left him with no time to sleep.

Elias suddenly remembered that he had not opened the email he received before Amanda entered the office.

It was a simulated portrait of the Allegra Family’s second daughter, Amelia Allegra, twenty years later.

So, he opened his eyes and gently shook the mouse to light up the computer screen.

He clicked on the web page and saw that the picture of the stimulated portrait had been downloaded, so he proceeded to open it.

Shock enveloped his features when he opened it because…

There was a hint of astonishment in his eyes.

This simulated portrait of Amelia Allegra looks so familiar… It looks like someone I know…

Elias immediately opened the drawer and yanked the photo frame to have a careful look again. The Stephanie in the photo frame was standing aside giggling, while her sister, Amelia, was smiling cutely, but they did not share any facial resemblances.
