The Barrister's Love in Town

Chapter 341 Is This How You Treat Me?

Shifting her attention to Crispin, Amanda mocked, “Why are you even here? You’re not the son-in-law of the family yet.”

Before Crispin could answer, Stephanie spoke up. “Crisp isn’t the son-in-law not officially the daughter of the Allegra Family either. You have no right to question him.” yet, but you’re

Crispin shot Stephanie a grateful look. I knew it! She still has feelings for me. She only stays away from me because she worries that I will go after another woman.

Truth be told, Stephanie couldn’t care less about defending him. She simply hated Amanda’s guts.

“Watch your mouth, Steph!” Jack scolded.

Stephanie could only keep her mouth shut, but she wasn’t pleased either.

Instead of getting angry, Amanda smiled. “Are you saying that you’re marrying Crispin? What I’m about to say might affect your relationship. Therefore, I think your fiancé should give us a moment.”

To his surprise, Stephanie grabbed his wrist. “Where do you think you’re going? Stay!” Then, she turned to Amanda. “You can say anything you want in front of him. We’ve got nothing to fear.”

“Mr. Crispin, do you have anything to do with my abduction last night?” Amanda wasn’t the type to beat around the bush, she cut to the chase.

“What are you implying, Miss Bailey? This is a serious matter. I have nothing to do with it.”
