The Barrister's Love in Town

Chapter 392 You’ve Worked Hard, Ex-husband

“What makes you think that way?” As Elias looked at Symeon, he realized this man wasn’t foolish for having the ability to investigate Amanda’s background. Was someone intentionally leading him into this?

Symeon laughed and thought that Elias was truly smitten by Amanda for him to ask such a question. “Elias, are you a fool in love, or has Amanda brainwashed you? Aren’t the paternity tests conducted in Cludan and Esmos enough? Why are you still demanding proof from me?”

Symeon was growing impatient. Over the past few days, Amanda repeatedly questioned him, and he had politely presented the evidence each time. Now, it was Elias’ turn to doubt him. Even the most patient person would have lost their cool by now.

“It seems like you know nothing about Amanda’s past. Allow me to enlighten you. Five years ago, Amanda and I got married-it was a secret marriage, known only to a few. However, we were indeed husband and wife. After a year of marriage, we divorced, and she was already pregnant at the time. She then spent four years in Esmos and gave birth to our child before returning to the country with him. So, at what point did she sleep with you? I don’t doubt what happened to you: I sympathize with you. However, you might have gotten the wrong person.”

Elias had made it very clear that he didn’t think Symeon was lying. Someone had probably climbed into Symeon’s bed, successfully conceived, then gave birth to a child, but this person wasn’t Amanda.

I understand now. You’re trying to get Amanda out of this. Well, how do you explain these two paternity tests?” Symeon also lit a cigarette, though he wasn’t a smoker. The current situation made him crave one. Initially, he thought it would be a simple task to take the child away, or he could perhaps take both the child and Amanda. He hadn’t anticipated Elias’ sudden intervention, which complicated the process.

“They’re both fake. You must have offended someone, or why would they go to such lengths to deceive you?” Elias exhaled smoke, and the solemn expression on his handsome face gradually disappeared when he realized that this matter had nothing to do with Amanda. He didn’t believe there was anything between Amanda and Symeon. However, he couldn’t hide his joy after verifying it himself.

“What makes you certain these are fake?”

“That’s because I’m the child’s biological father.” The man’s words were filled with unwavering confidence.
