The Barrister's Love in Town

His phone vibrated at this time.

He looked at it and noticed that it was Jack calling him. He couldn’t help frowning as a look

of irritation appeared between hus brows. However, he still answered the phone

Mr. Allegra

Flias come over tomorrow to have your measurements taken with Steph. I’ve found a

designer to custom-make the attire for you. Don’t be late, as it’s not easy to schedule an

appointment with this designer

“Right I got it’

“Bring your mom over as well so that both families can have a meal together. It seems

that only your mom can be a witness to your happy day.”

Elias frowned in displeasure as it felt satirical since there was no one else in his family.

In actual fact, the Winters Family still consisted of his mother, who was the evil elder of

the house, as both his grandfather and father were deceased

“Mr. Allegra, I’ll make my own decisions. There’s no need to look for my mother. I’m now

the person in charge of the Winters Family, so I have the final say on everyt

“An elder would still need to attend the ceremony as a witness, though. After all, marriage

is a matter between two families. I really hope your mother can attend the engagement

ceremony.”

Elias started to feel irritated when he replied, “You are making things difficult for me, Mr.

Allegra. You know that my father and grandfather passed away one after another, and my

mother’s not in a good state of health. If you insist on inviting her, then please look for her

in the nursing home yourself. I’m guessing that she won’t want to see me now since she

will lose her sanity if she sees me”

On the other end of the line, Jack fell silent. He merely thought that it would make things

more formal il Elias’ mother could attend the ceremony, but since she was insane, he had

no choice but to strike down that idea. Otherwise, if she threw a fit at the engagement

ceremony, both families would surely be the joke

of the town.

“Do as you please, then, considering that you are the person in charge now?”

“Yeah”

Elias was suddenly upset after the phone call. He looked up at the closed door in front of

him and turned to walk toward the elevators.

He had barely taken two steps when his phone rang again, but it was his grandfather’s

butler, Boris Jones, calling.

He could even guess what Boris wanted to say. The butler surely suspected that Amanda

was Howard’s murderer and wanted Elias to investigate the old man’s death.

Elias never doubted Amanda in this matter and also felt that she had no reason to harm

Howard, which was why Boris’ insistence started to make his head ache.

On the one hand, Boris had been his grandfather’s butler for years, so it could be said that

the man watched Elias grow up. That was the reason why Elias respected Boris a lot.

On the other hand, Boris was also the person whom Howard relied on the most in life, so

he couldn’t possibly lie about matters that involved Howard.

After repeatedly thinking about this, Elias still answered the call.

The moment the call was connected. Boris said, “Mr. Winters, you finally answered my

call. I have found a new witness and would like to schedule a meeting with you. Is that

okay?”

Witness?

Now that Elias’ curiosity was successfully aroused, he replied indifferently. “Wait for me in

the office.”

Then, he ended the call and entered the elevator.

Over at the president’s office in the Winters Enterprise.

As there were too many things going on lately. Elias had been camping out in the office.

So, as soon as he returned there, he saw Boris leading a woman to the couch in the

reception area.

When they heard the sound of the door being opened, they both rose to their feet and

called out, “Mr Winters.

“Take a seat. Why are you looking for me? What did you mean by a witness in the phone

call?”

Elias regarded the woman from head to toe, thinking that she looked extremely familiar. Is

she a helper at home?

An emotional Boris explained, “Mr. Winters, I have been investigating what happened on

the day that Old Mr. Winters fell down the stairs. I finally found some clues.”

Elias frowned as he waited for the butler to continue.

“Old Mr. Winters was extremely worried about Aiden’s situation that day,” Boris continued.

“So, he went to the Winters Estate to wait for some news. I heard from the helpers there

that he went to your bedroom, and Miss Bailey emerged. She said that she was looking for

him before he was pushed down the stairs. I know that these intermittent guesses can’t

prove that Miss Bailey is the murderer, but I found a witness. This is Ally.”

As Boris spoke, he looked at the servant seated beside him.

The woman named Ally introduced herself to Elias. “Mr. Winters, you might not know me.

I’m a helper over at the Winters Estate and responsible for the household chores.”

“Ally, tell Mr. Winters everything you saw and heard that day. Don’t withhold any valuable

information whatsoever. Quick.”

The butler looked impatient as he wished he could tell Elias the entire story, but he knew

that Elias would not believe it if he said it, which was why this witness-Ally-was extremely

important.
