The Barrister's Love in Town

Chapter 50 Positive Results

At Galaxy Bay, Amanda came out of the bathroom drying her hair with a towel. She turned the TV on and sat down before the dressing table, ready to go through her skincare routine.

The TV was airing the live recording of the charity ball, and Elias was on screen, elaborating on his relationship. “Grace and I are just colleagues, not lovers.”

The explanation surprised Amanda. She swiveled around, her eyes wide with disbelief. She was then reminded of what Elias told her that night. Is he really going to dump her? She quickly got up and huddled closer to the TV, then she turned the volume up to listen to what Elias had to say.

After she heard what Elias had to say, she felt awkward and sorry for Grace. When she saw the look of disbelief on Grace’s face, she knew this was Elias’ plan, and one he did not talk to Grace about.

What does he want? Amanda picked up her phone and called Elias. A few beeps later, the call went through. “Elias!”

“What is it?” he asked calmly.

“Are you really going to dump her? What do you want? Don’t tell me you’re serious about getting back together.” Amanda was panicking. If Elias really did want to remarry, she would be entangled in a heap of mess again.
