The Barrister's Love in Town

Chapter 342 Have You Developed Feelings for Elias?

Amanda saw Elias chuckling, and he seemed pretty charming while doing so. Intrigued asked, “What’s so amusing? Did I say something funny?”

Crispin struggled to suppress his guilt and force a smile. “Mr. Winters, I’m not sure what you’re implying, but I’ll do whatever it takes to make Steph happy because I love her.”

It appeared as though he was playing dumb.
