Elias’ Crimes and Punishments of Romance

Chapter 358 That Man Has Been Found

“Why can’t I be here? You, on the other hand-aren’t you supposed to be insane? You’ve disappeared for years. What are you doing here all of a sudden?” Stephanie looked at the woman standing before her, thinking she must be seeing things. Isn’t this Rosie? I heard she was sent to a mental institution years ago. When did she get out?

“Can’t I recover? I’m here to find Eli, of course. What are you doing here?” Rosie already had a problem with any woman being close to Elias in the first place, and now, Stephanie had popped up out of nowhere.

“That’s for me to know and you to find out,” said Stephanie disdainfully. “You don’t still have expectations for Elias, do you, Momsey? He didn’t even like the sane you. Do you really think he’ll be interested in the crazy you?”

Stephanie felt superior to Rosic. Either way, she was much stronger than an extreme lunatic, right?

“What did you say? I dare you to say that again!”

“Who cares if I talk bad about you? Oh, have I hit a nerve? Am I not stating the truth?”

Meanwhile, Elias felt his headache worsening as he watched the two women quarreling. He despised women making a terrible scene.

As such, he decided to leave the room, leaving the woman to fight it out in there.

It wasn’t until long after the door closed that Stephanie and Rosie realized Elias had left his

office.

“Eli?” Rosie glanced at the shut office door, then glared daggers at Stephanie. Since Elias had left, she felt even less restrained and started acting recklessly.

At that, she went up to Stephanie and grabbed her by the collar. “I’m warning you-don’t think about going after Eli. You’re not worthy.”

“Huh, what a joke. Do you think you’re worthy if I’m not? Besides, what are you still doing here, trying to get his attention? He’s already been married and even has children. Do you really think you still have a chance?” Stephanie looked down on Amanda, but she despised the madwoman in front of her even more.

“He’s divorced, though. Do you know what that means? It means he’s currently single. Why won’t I have a chance?!” Rosie wouldn’t give up on any chances.

“Oh, you poor thing. You probably don’t know how devoted Elias is to Amanda Bailey,” said Stephanie as she grabbed her bag, ready to leave. She didn’t want to entangle herself with the
