Chapter 357

Chapter 357 Why Are You Here?

Crispin fell silent at once.

He seemed to have understood Stephanie’s anger, and it simply stemmed from the fact that the man from that night wasn’t Elias.

“Ah! Why did things turn out like this? Why?!” Stephanie screamed in anger, driven mad by the possibility that the man from that night wasn’t Elias.

“So, if the man from that night was Elias, would you feel better and not be so devastated?” Crispin suddenly spoke, and the whole room fell into a dead silence.

Stephanie’s face turned pale, and she froze in place, her eyes wide open. After some time, she suddenly turned around. “That’s not true!”

“Tell me, Stephanie, have you fallen for Elias?” It was his second time asking the same question, but this time, he already had an answer. Still, he couldn’t accept the fact that his girl. had developed feelings for someone else.

“I haven’t! I already told you I haven’t! No, no, no! How many times do I have to tell you that I haven’t fallen for him?!”

Followingly, she dashed angrily into the bathroom and locked the door behind her. It was evident that she didn’t want to see Crispin or talk to him at the moment.

Crispin suddenly smiled as he looked at the shut door. He believed that he now had the most. definite answer-Stephanie had indeed fallen for Elias, and her feelings were deeper than he had imagined.

Both Jack and Elias were now investigating the matter. As it seemed impossible to pin the blame on Elias, Crispin had to find a scapegoat, or the issue would drag on indefinitely.

Ultimately, only two results would come of this. For one, the investigation would lead to him, and Jack would completely ruin him, making it impossible for him to survive in the whole of Imperia. As a result, it would leave him worse than dead. Alternatively, the truth would remain hidden, and he wouldn’t be able to marry Stephanie, leaving them in a perpetual state of uncertainty.

Neither outcomes were desirable for him, so the matter needed to be resolved.
