The Barrister's Love in Town

Chapter 342 Have You Developed Feelings for Elias?

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.
