The Barrister's Love in Town

Chapter 17 Let’s Go Along With Grandpa’s Wishes

Meanwhile, the air in the presidential suite was warm and filled with sexual tension, although both Amanda and Elias were silent. Amanda had gotten back into bed and wrapped herself tightly with the sheets while Elias sat on the couch. Beads of sweat formed on his forehead, and he eventually took his tie off as he felt too suffocated by it.

“What are you doing? Don’t you dare remove your clothes!” Amanda assumed that he was about to start stripping when she saw his actions and her eyes widened with fear. They were starting to feel the full effects of the drugs, and they were both clinging to their final bit of sanity. Elias had finished his entire glass of red wine, so he was feeling a lot more of the effects. The horrible sensation spread across his entire body, and he eventually got to his feet before walking over to

the bed.

When he saw Amanda, who was all wrapped up in the large, comfortable bed, he couldn’t help but let out a laugh. “Why don’t we just go along with Grandpa’s wishes?”

What?! Amanda was stunned. “Have you lost your mind?” Elias bent down to press his arms against the bed and edged his flawless face a little closer to Amanda as he spoke in a seductive tone. “You were once my wife, yet we’ve never slept together. Come to think of it, it’s a pity,” he whispered.

Amanda was speechless for a while. I don’t understand. Why won’t he admit to what happened during the celebration four years ago? If we never slept together, then where did the baby come from? We only slept together that one time, and I got pregnant immediately after that, she thought. She couldn’t contain her frustration when she saw the shameless look on Elias’ face. “A pity? What nonsense are you talking about? F*ck off!” she hissed as she sent a kick toward his groin area.

At that moment, he lurched forward and pulled her over to lie on top of him. His six-foot-tall figure seemed especially powerful and domineering at that moment. “Elias!” Amanda let out a scream. Elias seemed to have lost his mind at that point, and he leaned in to give Amanda a kiss. His sharp jaw and the veins on his neck made him look especially sexy then.

Amanda was alert from the moment she heard sounds coming from the washroom, and she quickly sat upright even though her entire body felt weak and shaky. “I’ll sleep on the couch. Don’t worry, I won’t lay a finger on you, Elias muttered in his deep and raspy voice. Then, he walked toward the couch before lying down. When he pulled his phone out to

Then, she mustered her last bit of energy to bring herself to the washroom to take a cold shower. However, she simply couldn’t stand on her own two feet-she felt like her whole body was being eaten up by tiny ants at that moment. Without warning, she
