Chapter 223 Falling in Love With Someone Else

Has Elias fallen in love with the young lady from the Allegra Family?

Amanda felt her heart breaking into pieces.

After Elias hung up the call, he appeared displeased, but he had no choice but to leave.

However, his son was still on a drip in the ward.

Just then. Elmer coughed and reminded him by saying, “Miss Allegra must have something

important to tell you, Mr. Winters, so you’d better not let her wait. She has been the center

of attention since a young age, and she mustn’t suffer any grievances.”

Amanda had the urge to laugh.

He sounds like other people deserve to suffer grievances.

Unable to take it anymore, Elias shot him a glare. “Do you think I’m some nobody?”

Elmer was rendered speechless upon hearing that.

Though Stephanie had been the center of attention, Elias had always enjoyed a life of

prestige.

They had been treated like a princess and a prince since young, so they wouldn’t give in

to each other.

All of a sudden, Elmer felt like he was the clown, but he was just trying to do his job. After

all, he was Jack’s executive assistant.

“Run along. We don’t need you here. I’ll take care of Aiden on my own,” Amanda said icily.

Just as she was ready to enter the ward, Elias grabbed her wrist and said, “You’d better

put on a different pair of shoes. Otherwise, you won’t even be able to carry the child.”

“It’s none of your business!” Amanda shook him off.

In actuality, Elias was just concerned about her because he saw that the woman’s ankles

were swollen. However, Amanda felt that he was mocking her for being a terrible mother

who couldn’t even take care of her child.

Just as Elias was ready to speak, his phone rang again. It was Stephanie.

He could hardly suppress his fury anymore. After connecting the call, he spoke in an

impatient tone, ignoring the fact that Elmer was still around.

“What on earth do you want?”

Elmer was shocked by the man’s voice.

Why is he so fierce? Do I have to report it to Mr. Allegra? However, it’s only natural that a

couple would bicker with each other from time to time. I guess Miss Allegra must have

found her true love this time. She’s even willing to put up with his bad temper

Over the phone, Stephanie said through choked sobs, “Please come to me right away.

Please… I urgently need your help. Please come looking for me now…”

An unfazed Elias replied coldly, “I got it. I’m busy now, so I’ll meet you a while later.”

Just as he was ready to hang up, Stephanic seemed to be flustered as she threatened him

by saying. “If you don’t come now, I’ll tell my dad about our plan. I’ll let him know that

you’re only making use of him to get back your shares!”

At that moment, Elias had the urge to kill Stephanie, but he suppressed his wrath and said

through clenched teeth, “Right away!”

After the call ended, Elias turned to look at Amanda, seemingly wanting to explain the

situation. However, she didn’t give him a chance to explain as she entered the ward and

closed the door.

Elias stared at the door for a moment before turning around to leave, bringing a sense of

ferocity with him.

Elmer followed him without having the guts to say anything. He even tried to lower the

volume of his breathing.

Meanwhile, Amanda stood in front of the bed and glanced at her son while the latter was

on a drip. As she recalled how Elias prioritized Stephanie earlier, she felt disappointed.

While feeling despondent, she closed her eyes and tried to remove all the memories of

Elias from her mind, but she was unable to do that.

That jerk is going to get married, so he wants to send Aiden and me abroad. What right

does he have to decide where we should go? I’m not going anywhere!

Her tears slid down from her eyes.

In the parking lot outside the hospital, Elias entered the car with fury. Elmer followed him

and remained silent the entire time.

Just then, he received a message from Jack telling him to ask Elias about something. “Mr.

Winters…”

A displeased Elias snapped. “Call Stephanie and ask her where she is!”

He sounded like he was ordering a dog to do something

Elmer shuddered and wondered if this man would get along well with Stephanie. Since

when did Miss Allegra become a mild-tempered person?

“Yes…”

Stephanie had been confined to Allegra Villa. Earlier on, she received a call from Crispin

saying that her father was about to send him somewhere else.

She was so anxious that she was on the brink of tears.

Even if she couldn’t get together with Crispin, she didn’t have the right to change his life.

Crisp is such a kind-hearted guy. I can’t let his future get destroyed because of me!

“Please eat something, Miss Allegra. You haven’t eaten anything for the entire day. Just

now, Mr. Allegra gave us a call and said that if you still refuse to eat, he’ll deduct a year’s

worth of our salaries. Please do us a

to beg Stephanic.

The outside. He was on the brink of falling to his knees

Meanwhile, Stephanie was sobbing in her room, ignoring how the butler and servants kept

begging her to eat something.

“Get lost! I only want to see Elias! I’ll only open the door when he’s here!”

No one else could help her. She could only hope that Elias would come here and get her

out of this place.

A moment later, the butler was heard saying, “Mr. Winters is here, Miss Allegra!”

“Stop lying! I’m not going to open the door unless Elias is here!” Stephanie knew that the

servants and butler would lie to her just to keep their salaries.

Suddenly, a man’s masculine voice sounded from the outside. “Open the door. It’s me.”

Upon hearing Elias’ voice, Stephanie turned to look at the door, and her eyes brightened.

She dashed toward the door and opened it to see Elias standing outside. At that moment,

she had the urge to hug him, for the man was no different from a savior to her.

Before she knew it, she wrapped her arms around the man’s towering figure.

The servants were dumbfounded, not expecting Stephanie to be so proactive. They

believed that the woman was loyal to Crispin, so they were surprised to see her falling in

love with someone else.

Nevertheless, Stephanie couldn’t be blamed for it; Elias was indeed a brilliant man.

An annoyed Elias pushed the woman away. “What on earth do you need from me?”

When Stephanie saw the butler and servants looking at them with prying eyes, she pulled

the man into the room and closed the door.

“What’s wrong with you? Why did you make me come here?” The man sported a dark

expression, seemingly not wanting to stay there for another second.

An apprehensive Stephanie explained, “I want you to help me find out where Crisp is. I

think my dad has hidden Crisp somewhere. He won’t release him until the engagement

party is over.”
