The Barrister's Love in Town

Chapter 164 Jealousy

Back at Winters Estate, the first thing that Elias wanted to do was to soak in the hot spring. A satisfied smile hung on his face as he recalled Amanda’s reaction from tonight, finding it interesting because it showed that she cared about him, at least.

Then, Boris approached him. “Mr. Winters, your first love is waiting for you in the guest lounge. Are you going to meet her now?”

Elias stopped in his tracks and turned to Boris in bewilderment, asking, “First love? I don’t have a first love.” If Lazarus hadn’t made up a first love for him, he wouldn’t know what love was, and neither did he need something like first love.

“A lady by the name of Miss Knox is here to look for you, claiming to be your first love,” Boris answered truthfully.

How did a person really appear out of nowhere? Miss Knox? Elias repeated, and no matter how he racked through his brains, he couldn’t remember ever knowing anyone by that name. A few seconds passed by quietly before he headed toward the guest lounge, where a woman in a beige-colored dress was patiently waiting for him on the couch. Elegant with a dignified temperament, she had skin as flawless as a baby’s and appeared a little anxious as she browsed her phone.

When he stepped into the room and saw the woman’s back silhouette, he frowned. Who’s this? Regardless, he couldn’t recall who this was and strolled to the front of the couch. So, he stared at the unfamiliar face as he asked, “Who are you?”

The woman rose to her feet and appeared fearful when she looked at him. “Hello, Mr. Winters. My name is Natasha Knox, and Mr. Lazarus Harvard told me to look for you so that we can put up a performance together.”

All of a sudden, his face turned livid, and he went to a corner, whisked out his phone, and called Lazarus number. The call rang for a long time, so he hung up and called Lazarus’ other number before he finally reached him. There was a lot of noise from Lazarus’ end, and Elias was sure that he was partying somewhere.

“What the f*ck are you doing?” he hissed angrily. “Who’s this Natasha and what’s she doing here? Am I really going to have a ‘first love’ out of nowhere?”

“Get lost!”
