The Barrister's Love in Town

Chapter 175 Why Is He Angry?

Amanda could not comprehend the reason behind this man’s persistent anger. In a flustered state, she stood up and declared, “I’ve always held that belief. No matter how many times you inquire, my response. will remain unchanged.”

After uttering these words, she hastened toward the room, her departing figure resembling a desperate escape. Surprisingly, Elias did not halt her this time. He silently sat on the couch, sulking, and his handsome face tensed.

What infuriated him the most was not her attitude, but the foolish idea concocted by Lazarus. Is this what he calls effective?

Why did he sense that Amanda was growing more resistant toward him, even driving him toward other women now? “Damn..” He could not contain his frustration and cursed, feeling an impulse to confront Lazarus physically.

At that moment, Selina emerged, carrying a cup of tea, and noticed Amanda’s absence. Awkwardly, she placed the cup before the man and asked, “Mr. Winters, would you like some tea? Where is Amanda?”

Before she could finish her words, Selina entered the room without knocking, startling her. Amanda sat up abruptly and was relieved upon seeing Selina. She could not help but complain, “Selina, why did you come in without knocking? You scared me.”

After closing the door, Selina walked to the edge of Amanda’s bed and sat down. I’m the one who’s scared, not by you but by your ex-husband.”
