Chapter 394 So Soon.
Upon returning to the room, Amanda realized that Aiden was already gone. Is he gone already? Her immediate thought went to Lawrence, assuming that he might have taken her child. Amanda couldn't help. but tremble with anxiety and was about to go look for Elias.
At that moment, the nanny happened to pass by the door, and Amanda grabbed her arm. "Where is Aiden? Where has he gone off to?"
"Oh, Mr. Winters took Mr. Aiden out early this morning. They're probably having breakfast by now."
Hearing this, Amanda instantly heaved a sigh of relief, knowing that the father and son were together. "Okay. I understand. You may continue with your duties."
With that, she returned to her room to freshen up and change her clothes. As she entered the bathroom. she was startled by her reflection in the mirror. Her snow-white skin was covered in countless hickeys left. by Elias. Damn it! This despicable man has gone too far! How would she explain this if Aiden saw them later?
Elias was carefully feeding their son in the dining room, and the boy was enjoying his meal. After a while, Amanda entered the dining room and witnessed this loving scene, which helped ease some of her anger. "Are you two the only ones having breakfast?"
Elias smiled as he glanced at her. "Don't you know what time it is already?"
It was almost 11.00AM, and it was nearly lunchtime.
"Which meal are you feeding him now, then?"
"Lunch. Once he's done, I'm taking him to Universal Studios. Why don't you have something to eat as well? We might not have time once we're there." Elias wiped Aiden's mouth clean as he spoke. Amanda nodded and turned to the nanny. "Please make me a bowl of spaghetti."
"Sure."
She felt a sense of happiness upon seeing this, but safeguarding that happiness wouldn't be easy. Suddenly, she overheard a conversation between the nanny and Crispin from outside. "You're back, Mr. Crispin."
"Where's Stephanie?"
"She's in the room and hasn't come out. Breakfast was delivered to her room."
"I see. Carry on with your duties."
Then, she heard Crispin's hurried footsteps as he left.
Amanda frowned. "He didn't come back all night. Who knows where he's been fooling around, yet he dares to throw a tantrum-'
Before she could finish her sentence, Elias interrupted her and said, "I've deleted all the backup videos, which explains why he's displeased." "What? Already?"
1/3
Amanda was genuinely surprised. She knew it wouldn't be difficult for Elias to do so, but she didn't expect it to happen so quickly.
The man chuckled softly. "He stored them in such idiotic places. He has no understanding of these things, and it was a piece of cake replaceing them." "Now, he has nothing to threaten the Allegra Family with."
"Yes, when I return tonight, I plan to kick him out of the Allegra Family." Elias' tone was indifferent as though he was discussing something trivial.
Meanwhile, Crispin found Stephanie lying on the bed like a lifeless dog, looking dejected and terrified. upon returning to the room. "Get up!" He walked over and pulled back the covers. With that, Stephanie sat up with disgust and fear written all over her face.
Now, she felt both disgust and fear toward this man. She couldn't put the feeling into words, but it made her sick to her stomach. "What did you do? Do you think you've erased all those videos? Do you think 1 don't have any backups?"
The videos? Stephanie looked confused, unable to grasp the meaning of his words for a while.
Crispin became enraged by her reaction, and he roared, "Let me tell you this! The videos cannot be erased! I've already uploaded them to the internet! You'll never escape my grasp!"
In reality, Crispin's fury stemmed from someone hacking into his computer and phone, completely deleting all the backup videos. He now had nothing to threaten Stephanie with!
"I didn't... You... Stephanie was frightened by his current behavior and curled into a ball. She was afraid of experiencing domestic violence again.
However, Crispin grabbed her ankle and pulled her closer. "Is this how you want to escape from me? So what if the videos are in my possession? As long as you listen to me obediently, how could I ever upload my own wife's videos online?" Stephanie knew him well to some extent. She wondered if Elias had succeeded when she saw how agitated and insane Crispin was.
"You're so worked up because you don't have any backups anymore, am I right?" Hearing that, Crispin paused for a moment, revealing a flash of panic that exposed his vulnerability.
"I do have them! Do you think I'm that stupid? I have backups everywhere-
Before he could finish his sentence, Stephanie suddenly burst into laughter. She was laughing freely as if she had been liberated. "Hahaha! Crispin, you're finished. The videos in your possession are completely gone. You can no longer threaten me."
"I said I have them!" Crispin was infuriated and raised his arm before slapping Stephanie's face. However, Stephanie couldn't feel the pain because she felt liberated. She was finally going to escape from this devil.
"Crispin, I'm no longer afraid of you. Elias will never let you have any backups" Stephanie believed in Elias' technical skills. This man would never leave any backups behind.
Crispin hesitated for a moment, then flew into a rage and grabbed her by the throat. "So, it was you who let Elias access my computer and phone to locate those videos!"
"So what if it was me? Do you really think you can enter the Allegra Family's company and inherit the
2/3
Allegra Family's fortune? Dream on!" Stephanie kept laughing as if she had already divorced him.
"Stephanie! You're ruthless!" The man tightened his grip around her neck as he squeezed the life out of
her.
Stephanie's face gradually turned crimson as she coughed and struggled. "Release me... Let go of me..." Stephanie pleaded and couldn't stop coughing.
Just then, the nanny knocked on the door. "Mr. Crispin, Miss Steph, the chairman has returned and wishes to speak with you."
Hearing that, Crispin swiftly released his hold on Stephanie's neck. As she collapsed onto the bed, she coughed and desperately gasped for air. She was almost strangled to death just moments ago. Following that, she quickly rose to her feet and opened the door before rushing out. The nanny, who witnessed this, was startled but completely clueless about what had unfolded earlier.
Meanwhile, Crispin stood frozen in the room, for he was well aware that his time had run out. He hadn't achieved anything yet. Was he truly going to be ousted from the Allegra Family like this? He refused to accept it! After wasting so much effort to enter the Allegra Family, leaving with nothing was simply unacceptable. How could he come to terms with that?
"Mr. Crispin, Mr. Crispin? The chairman is summoning you to the study," reminded the nanny kindly once again.
Hearing that, Crispin bellowed angrily, "I know! Now, get lost!" The nanny was frightened and quickly turned to flee. It was the first time she had witnessed Crispin in such an irritable state.
