Chapter 349 Elias Got Mad

Elias' expression was dark as he left the Allegra Villa. He had just walked out through the entrance when he heard Amanda calling out to him from behind.

"Wait."

The man paused in his tracks and turned around.

In reality, he could already guess what Amanda wanted to say to him..

She walked up to him and said, "Just now, what did Mr. Allegra-I mean, what did my dad say to you?"

The man examined the expression on her face as he said, "Before I can answer your question, I need you. to answer a question of mine. Do you believe what Stephanie said?"-

Amanda was slightly stunned.

This b❞stard has learned how to attack preemptively! Of course, she didn't believe Stephanie's nonsense, but since Elias had asked her so sincerely, she felt like causing trouble for him.

"Of course I do. It was Stephanie's first time, after all, and there was no need for her to lie. Also, she swore

the man last night was you, and she even provided evidence. Even though the evidence was lacking, it also hinted that the mysterious man could be you. But what about you? You couldn't explain yourself at

all."

When Elias heard her words, a look of disappointment appeared in his dark eyes. So, she believes it.

He nodded. "I see."

With that, he turned to leave, but Amanda grabbed his arm. "So, what did my dad say to you?"

"Since you believe Stephanie's nonsense, what Jack said to me no longer matters." Elias pushed Amanda's hand away as he turned around and walked toward the parking lot.

More accurately, he was a little mad. He didn't mind if everyone else didn't believe him, but he wanted Amanda to believe him.

She was the woman he had married and had a child with. How can she suspect my morality and taste? Do I look like the sort of man who would fall for women like Stephanie? Moreover, even if I truly fancied Stephanie, I wouldn't use such cheap tricks to steal a woman's first experience.

Amanda could see that Elias was mad, for anger emanated from the back of his figure..

She couldn't help but chuckle. She didn't stop him this time, deciding to let him investigate what exactly had happened.

She was about to turn around and go back when she saw Stephanie and Crispin walking out together. Stephanie was probably seeing Crispin off.

When the two caught sight of Amanda, their expressions soured.

Crispin, of course, had to play his role. He put on a disgraced expression as he looked at Stephanie. "You should hurry back and rest. I'll be going home now. No matter what, you have to eat your meals regularly and get enough sleep. I'll do my best to convince Mr. Allegra to put our marriage on the agenda. Don't worry. No one would know about this. Never

"Okay. Thank you, Crisp." Stephanie trusted Crispin completely, and she was wholly devoted to him.

Crispin glanced at Amanda, snorted, then turned around and left.

Amanda was so mad that she felt like laughing. What does this have to do with me? Isn't Stephanie the one who did it to herself?

Stephanie glared at Amanda in hatred as she said coldly, "Are you happy now? Elias ruined my life and stole my first time! He didn't even want me! How can you two be so vicious? You stole the motherly and fatherly love that belonged to me, and now he stole my first time-"

Before Stephanie could continue, Amanda interrupted her. "Wait a minute! Why are you painting us as heinous demons? Also, how did I steal motherly and fatherly love from you? Aren't I their biological daughter as well? If I didn't go missing when I was young, wouldn't I be enjoying their love all this while? Or did you purposefully make it so that I would go missing when I was young, so you can hog all the love from Dad and Mom?"

"Nonsense! I was only three or four back then, so how can I possibly cause you to go missing on purpose? You'd better watch your mouth, Amanda!" Amanda had hit Stephanie's Achilles heel. Amanda smiled and didn't say anything as she walked toward the Allegra Villa.

Stephanie grabbed her arm. "Be clear about it! Are you going to spout nonsense to Dad and Mom again? Im warning you, they will never believe your nonsense!

"Then, do you think that they would believe the nonsense you just spouted about Elias telling you to go to a hotel room and stealing your first time? Is that even believable?" Amanda mimicked Stephanie's tone from before, pissing the younger woman off.

Stephanie widened her eyes, so furious that she was about to explode. "Amanda, watch your tongue! Do you think a woman would joke about things like this?!"

"Then, do you think it's appropriate to turn Elias into a se mbag just because of what you said?"

"That was the truth. I wasn't slandering him. I never thought that you'd trust your ex-husband so much."

Amanda sneered. "It's not about him. I trust his taste in women. He would never fancy someone like you."

With that, Amanda even looked at Stephanie from head to toe, her face filled with disdain.

Stephanie lowered her head and looked at herself, disbelief coloring her eyes. "What do you mean by 'someone like me? Why wouldn't he fancy me?"

Stephanie felt humiliated. It was even more infuriating than when Elias refused to admit to it.

"Well... How should I put it? When I secretly got married to Elias back then, he brought women home as well. Those women had pale skin and attractive figures, and their personalities were soft and their voices gentle. You're a far cry from that, so you don't match his aesthetics."

With that, Amanda sneered in disdain and walked away.

A stunned Stephanie was left standing where she was. She couldn't recover even after a long while, for she was still trying to picture the women Amanda described.

Wait a minute... Aren't those women your typical two-faced bich? So, Elias likes the sort of woman who is all looks

and has no virtue?

It was midnight.

Amanda tossed and turned in bed, unable to go to sleep.

Too many things had happened today, and her mind was in a mess. Even though she didn't believe Stephanie's words, it seemed to be true that Stephanie was violated. So, who exactly was the man from last night?

She didn't believe that it would be Elias, but who would pretend to be Elias and violate Stephanie?

It was surely someone who had inside information, and also knew that Stephanie liked Elias. Otherwise, he wouldn't be able to get Stephanie to the hotel room so easily.

Who can it be?

No one suspected Crispin at all. After all, Crispin's outstanding performance today had convinced. everyone that he truly loved Stephanie.

Amanda couldn't sleep, so she went to the balcony for some fresh air.

Suddenly, her phone rang.

She frowned. Who is calling me at this hour? When she picked up her phone to look, she realized that it was a call from Elias.

She hesitated for a moment before answering the call. What is it?"
