Chapter 343 I Will Always Believe In You

Witnessing Stephanie’s intense reaction, Crispin became even more convinced of his thoughts.

Stephanie had undeniably developed feelings for someone else.

She had fallen for Elias, her very own brother-in-law.

Under Crispin’s unwavering gaze, Stephanie felt uneasy, and her attempts at explanation. sounded feeble even to her ears.

Crispin revealed a faint smile. “Steph, I trust you. I will always trust you.”

However, concealed beneath that smile was an insatiable greed that knew no bounds.

Whether Stephanie loved him or not was of lesser importance. What truly mattered to Crispin was becoming a son-in-law of the esteemed Allegra Family by any means necessary.

This only deepened Crispin’s conviction that Stephanie was now guarding herself against him. In any case, she didn’t wish to marry him, and that was something he could not accept.

He needed to come up with a plan to expedite their marriage. The more it was delayed, the slimmer their chances of getting married.

Determined to take control of the situation, he seized Stephanie’s hand and began to lean in for a kiss. However, she deftly evaded his advance.

“Don’t do this. It’s not good if my family catches us. I’ll go back first,” she exclaimed, turning around and running away
