The Barrister's Love in Town

Chapter 24 Elias Is at the Door and She’s Extremely Nervous!

The following morning, Elias slowly opened his eyes to find that he was lying on the club’s couch. a crystal chandelier hanging above his head.

He suffered from a splitting headache due to the hangover. He sat up while propping his forehead against his hand before shaking his head, but the headache didn’t go away.

Just then, Grace’s voice rang out from beside him. “Here you go, Elias. Something to cure your hangover.”

The man looked up and found Grace holding a cup of liquid. When did she come?

“What are you doing here?” he asked while leaning against the couch. The splitting headache made him frown.

“I called you last night, but Lazarus answered it. He said you were drunk, so I came to take care of you.”

“Busybody.” Elias muttered with displeasure.

At that, he took the cup from Grace and took a few sips before placing it on the coffee table.

“I’m heading to the office. Should I send you home or…” he asked while grabbing his suit jacket. and wearing it in one swift move.

“I’d like to go to the office. I have a variety show to record.”

Elias grunted in agreement as he headed out. What he didn’t know was that Grace’s smile disappeared the second he turned around.

“Get me a cemetery plot now,” Elias ordered over the phone as soon as he stepped out of the

room.

A cemetery plot? Grace was baffled. Why would he need a cemetery plot? He’s not finding one for the baby Amanda gave up, is he? But is it even necessary?! That fetus wasn’t even fully formed when he was taken out! It can’t even be considered a human, yet Elias wants to give him a proper burial?!

The young woman grew panicked by the second, as she could tell Amanda still meant something to Elias. It was just that he didn’t realize it yet.

I’ll have to do something before he’s aware of his feelings toward Amanda!
