Chapter 259 The One Who Truly Matters

"Do you think something might have happened to Samantha? Perhaps she went out and got hit by a car?"

Finley and Daphne were speechless. "Elias!"

Noting Daphne's distressed demeanor, Elias spoke with a concerned tone, "Ms. Stuart, just consider it for a moment. What I mentioned is not entirely implausible, is it? Accidents happen every day. If Samantha were one of those unfortunate souls, it wouldn't be such an extraordinary occurrence, would it?"

Daphne observed Finley's expression darkening further. She swiftly raised her hand and delivered a couple more smacks to Elias. "Elias, shut up, will you? Must you always speak so poorly of Mrs. Dean? And just because she isn't answering her phone doesn't necessarily mean she's been in an accident. Her phone might be broken, or perhaps she's upset with Mr. Dean and has blocked him, choosing to ignore him."

"In truth," she continued, her tone softening with a touch of conviction, "Mrs. Dean truly cares for Mr. Dean. If there's any woman in the world who loves him the most, it has to be her!"

Elias shook his head. "Ms. Stuart, you're mistaken. If there's a woman in this world who cares about Finley the most, it certainly isn't Samantha."

Daphne's brow furrowed in confusion. "If it's not Mrs. Dean, then who is it?"

"His mother," he replied with an air of certainty.

As expected, he had a knack for saying the most inappropriate things.
