The Barrister's Love in Town

Chapter 158 Are You Sure She’ll Get Jealous?

Amanda took a small sip of her wine and said, “This is your private affairs, and it has nothing to do with me. Mr. Lennard is here; I’m going to go and speak to him.”

She deliberately came up with an excuse and left, not wanting to waste any more of her time with Simon and Lunabelle. However, as soon as she turned around, she spotted a tall and eye-catching figure by the

entrance.
