He picked up his coffee and took a sip. Instead of savoring the taste of the coffee, he treated it like alcohol.

Amanda’s way of shaking hands with clients always made him feel uneasy. He wondered how he managed to turn a blind eye to Grace’s intimate scenes, including sex scenes, with male celebrities.

He had always thought he didn’t care about things like that. But now that he thought about it, he probably didn’t care about whom Grace got intimate with.

The burning and possessive gaze made Amanda feel uncomfortable. She had to send signals to Elias with her eyes to not stare at her.

Zayne, who was sitting opposite her, noticed her sending knowing looks to someone with her eyes and couldn’t help but follow her line of sight.

And in the next second, Amanda was ignored by the client right there and then.

“Oh my, Mr. Winters! What are you doing here?” Seeing Elias sitting next to the aisle, Zayne stood up in surprise and went over to shake his hand.

Elias maintained an air of superiority and casually returned the handshake without standing up.

“I’m waiting for Miss Bailey.” Elias replied while staring at Amanda.

Zayne, being an astute person at his age, could see what was going on at a glance and pretended to be surprised. “So, you and Miss Bailey know each other, Mr. Winters? Are you two… in a relationship?”

Amanda glared at Elias as if warning him. Don’t shoot your mouth off, or I’m going to block you right away!

Elias chuckled softly when he saw her glare. “No, but I am pursuing Miss Bailey. It all depends on whether she accepts me or not.”
