The Lawyer’s Romance in Law novel Chapter 343

Chapter 343 I Will Always Believe In You 

Witnessing Stephanie’s intense reaction, Crispin became even more convinced of his thoughts. 

Stephanie had undeniably developed feelings for someone else. 

She had fallen for Elias, her very own brother-in-law. 

Under Crispin’s unwavering gaze, Stephanie felt uneasy, and her attempts at explanation. sounded feeble even to her ears. 

With anger in her voice, she yelled, “I’ve already said nothing is going on! Stop spreading rumors! I would never steal a man from my sister. Even after their divorce, such thoughts never crossed my mind!” 

In truth, these words served as reminders for herself, a constant warning to resist the allure of Elias. 

Crispin revealed a faint smile. “Steph, I trust you. I will always trust you.” 

However, concealed beneath that smile was an insatiable greed that knew no bounds. 

Whether Stephanie loved him or not was of lesser importance. What truly mattered to Crispin was becoming a son-in-law of the esteemed Allegra Family by any means necessary. 

“Crisp, you….”Stephanie suddenly found herself at a loss for words, overwhelmed by guilt. 

“Steph, I believe every word you say. Don’t worry. Even if they investigate me, I won’t expose you. It has nothing to do with you, after all,” Crispin assured her. 

Stephanie remained silent as her gaze fixed upon him. 

This only deepened Crispin’s conviction that Stephanie was now guarding herself against him. In any case, she didn’t wish to marry him, and that was something he could not accept. 

He needed to come up with a plan to expedite their marriage. The more it was delayed, the slimmer their chances of getting married. 

Determined to take control of the situation, he seized Stephanie’s hand and began to lean in for a kiss. However, she deftly evaded his advance. 

“Don’t do this. It’s not good if my family catches us. I’ll go back first,” she exclaimed, turning around and running away 

As Crispin watched Stephanie’s panicked figure sprinting away, a cold chuckle escaped his

lips. “It doesn’t matter whether you love me or not. I will definitely become your husband. You have no other choice.” 

As Elias returned to the Winters Estate, he gazed upon the vast property, only to find it incredibly dull. 

Boris, the butler, approached him from behind. “Mr. Winters, would you like to have a meal, freshen up with a bath, or maybe indulge in a relaxing soak in the hot springs first?” 

Elias cast a glance at Boris. “Didn’t Rosie take a dip in the hot springs today?” 

Boris clarified the situation. “Not every day, Mr. Winters. She did so just last night.” 

“How has her health been lately? When does she plan to go home?” Elias inquired further. The peculiar circumstances of both him and Rosie residing at the estate piqued his curiosity. 

Boris responded bluntly, “I’m not entirely certain about Miss Momsey’s health condition, but her temperament has been quite volatile lately. She’s been quick to snap at the staff, and we’ve had to replace the helpers who attend to her multiple times.” 

Elias scoffed disapprovingly. “Did I bring her here solely to discipline my helpers?” 

Boris maintained a stoic silence in response. 

“Help me pack a few clothes and send them to Galaxy Bay. I’ll be staying there for a few days,” Elias requested. 

“Yes, Mr. Winters.” 

Elias nonchalantly slipped his hands into his pockets and cast another glance over the estate. There was a peculiar sense of absence as if something were missing-perhaps the incessant noise caused by that little brat, Aiden. 

“Mr. Winters, would you like to have dinner as well? I’ll have the helper prepare your clothes immediately. 

“Yes, but keep it simple and fast.” 

“Understood 

Then, they made their way toward the villa. 

After arriving at the dining hall, Elias pulled out a chair and seated himself. The atmosphere felt oddly hushed and carried a sense of solitude. Normally, the presence of his son would disrupt his meals, but now the space seemed vacant and deserted.

Soon after, Boris entered with a hearty serving of food. 

“I specifically requested to keep it simple,” Elias remarked, reaching for his utensils. 

Boris chuckled softly. “The late Old Mr. Winters had instructed us to take good care of your daily needs, especially when it comes to your meals.” 

Grandpa… 

Elias momentarily paused while reaching for a plate. A faint smile played at the corner of his mouth. 

“Alright, then. You may leave now,” he commented. 

Boris nodded and left the dining hall. 

Just as he exited, Rosie hurriedly burst in. Boris greeted her politely, “Miss Momsey, is there something I can assist you with?” 

“Where’s Eli? Is he planning to stay outside?” Rosie inquired impatiently, hastening to clarify the situation. Finally, I have this perfect opportunity. Amanda and that little brat have both moved out of the estate, but now Eli is going to leave as well. What’s the point of me being all alone in this estate? 

“It is Mr. Winters’ affair, and we do not have the right to inquire,” Boris responded. 

“I’m asking you where he is right now!” Rosie didn’t wish to waste time conversing with the butler. She wanted to speak with Elias directly. 

Boris swiftly replied, “He’s having his meal in the dining hall.” 

As soon as he finished speaking, Rosie immediately made her way toward the dining hall. 

Boris glanced at her hurried figure. Shaking his head helplessly, he murmured to himself, “Dealing with this stubborn girl is best left to Mr. Winters himself.” 

It was because Rosie only displayed her gentle and charming side when in Elias’ presence while behaving like a madwoman in front of others.
