The Barrister's Love in Town

Chapter 150 Is This Really Happening?

With his phone in hand, Elias waited for ten seconds before calmly answering the call. He pretended to be busy and spoke in a low voice. “What’s up? Is something wrong?”

When Yacob saw Elias excellent acting skills, he couldn’t help but sigh. It’s a shame his acting talent is being hindered by his status and position. It’s a great loss for the entertainment industry. If he were in showbiz, he would be an award-winning actor.

Meanwhile, Amanda’s slightly awkward voice came through the phone. “Um, are you busy? Are you still working? If you’re busy, forget it. It’s not anything important.”

At that, Elias furrowed his brows. Tm almost done. Go ahead if you have something to say. I’m about to leave.” I need to put on a complete performance, but I shouldn’t overdo it.

“Well, it’s already late, and it’ll take you a while to get back to the estate. Since the office is just a few minutes away from here, why don’t you come over and stay for the night? We have plenty of rooms.”

He smiled at her well-justified excuse. It’s clear that she’s afraid and wants me to come quer and accompany them during the night, but she came up with such an excuse to make it sound more legitimate. Although he knew her intentions, he didn’t expose her. He replied in a deep voice, “Sure. I’ll be there in a few minutes.

“Okay. Can you hurry up? You said it’s very close.” Her voice sounded urgent, indicating that she was mentally exhausted from the fear.

“Alright, I’ll be quick. Five minutes. His smile grew even brighter, satisfied that his plan had worked perfectly.

Amanda continued to explain, “Also, Aiden is asking for food. When you pass by the 24-hour convenience store later, could you bring something for him? I can wait.”

At her words, Elias chuckled. “Okay. I’ll leave now” After that, he hung up the phone.

Once the call ended, he turned to Yacob and said. “What are you waiting for? Hurry up and go to the convenience store to buy some food.”

Only then did Yacob react and say, “Oh, okay. I’ll go now,”

Luckily, there was a 24-hour convenience store in the neighborhood, or he would have had to go outside the neighborhood.
