The Barrister's Love in Town

Chapter 203 A Domineering Elias

Presently, Amanda was at her home in Northern No. 1. She didn’t go to the law firm in the past few days, nor was she in any mood to head out.

The door was pushed open. Selina had picked up the child and returned. When she saw Amanda spacing out on the couch, she said to the child, “Go and play with your toys, Aiden. I’ll go to you later.”

“Sure.” Aiden obediently went to play with his toys so that Selina and Amanda could have a talk.

Selina put down her purse and sat down on the couch before calling out, “Amanda?”

The woman didn’t react to her. She seemed engrossed in her own little world. Selina wondered what was on her mind. “Amanda!” she called out again.

“Yeah?” Amanda finally came to her senses. Upon registering Selina’s presence, she asked with a smile, “When did you come back? I didn’t hear the door opening. By the way, where’s Aiden?”

A helpless Selina shook her head. “You were just deep in thought. Aiden is playing with his toys now. Are you alright? You’ve been muddle-headed for the past few days. Did anything happen?”

Amanda replied calmly. “Elias’ grandfather rolled down the stairs and passed away.”

“My goodness! How did that even happen? Mr. Winters must be distraught now.”

It was imaginable how tough it must have been for someone like Elias, who was proud and unwilling to show his weaknesses.

Amanda put on a dejected smile. “I was the first one who discovered his death.”

Selina stared at her with disbelief for a moment before asking tentatively. “Does Mr. Winters you pushed his grandfather down the stairs?”
