The Barrister's Love in Town

Chapter 476 Escape From the Estate

Amanda nearly laughed from rage. In fact, she was on the verge of madness.

“Do

you think that without me, Elias would fall for you? Let me tell you! My existence plays no factor in Elias’ interest in you! Even without me, he would never choose you! You lunatic

Her words successfully angered Rosie, and her hands trembled in rage. “What did you just call me? I dare you to repeat it! Who are you calling a lunatic?”

“You, of course! Are you not crazy? Why did you stay in a mental hospital if you’re sane ther You think Elias doesn’t like you because of my existence? He looks down on you from the bottom of his heart, and it has nothing to do with any woman. You’ve known each other for so long; if he really liked you, he would have been with you long ago. Why would he wait until now? Elias isn’t the kind of man who hesitates. If he truly likes a woman, he’ll do whatever it takes to keep her by his side!”

Amanda wanted to provoke the lunatic and use her to escape.

“Y-You! Just you wait!” Rosie, seething with anger, turned to the bodyguard aside and demanded, “Open the door!”

“I’m afraid I can’t do that, Miss Momsey. Mr. Winters said that no one except him is allowed to visit Mrs. Winters.”

The words “Mrs. Winters” from the bodyguard’s mouth angered Rosie again, and she shouted, “Open the door! Why did Elias ask me to come back?! It’s for me to see Bailey! So, open

the door! How would I know if she repented if I didn’t go in? How am I supposed to explain it to Eli, huh?!”

“I…” The bodyguard was still hesitant, not knowing what to do.

“Do you want me to call Elias and get his approval? Do you want to be fired right after starting your job?” Rosie threatened, acting as if she were the mistress of the estate.

The bodyguard didn’t want to anger the young woman either, for it seemed that Elias had been treating Rosie quite well lately, so she probably wouldn’t lie.

Reluctantly, the bodyguard opened the door to the basement, giving Amanda a chance to
