The Barrister's Love in Town

Chapter 383 Does He Look Like Me?

When Jack and his wife sat at the dining table for breakfast the next morning, Crispin acted like a good husband with his arm wrapped around Stephanie’s waist. Seeing their lovely interaction, Jack said with at smile, “How sweet! I’m so grateful and happy to have a son-in-law who loves my daughter so much!”

Stephanie was depressed, but to prevent the video from being leaked, she had to pull herself together and put up with Crispin’s oppression. Crispin, who had his arm around her waist, pinched Stephanie’s skin to remind her to behave herself. Overwhelmed by the pain, Stephanie forced herself to make a request to her father on Crispin’s behalf. “Dad, Crispin is so busy with his work now that we hardly see each other every day, so I think it’d be best if he works in our company. That way, I can see him whenever I go to the office…

Before Stephanie could finish her sentence, Amanda stepped into the dining area and asked, “He is just a teacher, and what’s he going to do in our company? Teach?”

What the heck is Amanda doing?! It looks like she is trying to stir up trouble here. Crispin furrowed his eyebrows, feeling annoyed. In the meantime, Amanda appeared to be holding a needle in her hand, and no one quite understood what she was trying to do.

“Why are you holding a needle, Amanda? Is there something you need to sew?” Edith was the first who noticed the needle in Amanda’s hand.

Amanda sat down beside Crispin and smiled. “Oh, nothing. Actually, I found this on the floor and was wondering who dropped it so carelessly. Imagine if Aiden accidentally pricked his hand or something”

“What?” Jack furrowed his eyebrows unhappily.

When Stephanie saw the needle, she subconsciously curled her fingers, her heart stabbed by a sting of pain. At the same time, her mind was flooded with images of Crispin torturing her, which filled her with tears.

“Are you alright, Stephanie?” Edith quickly noticed something wrong with her daughter.

The next second, Amanda directly poked the back of Crispin’s hand with the needle, causing him to scream in agony. “Ah!”
