Elias’ Crimes and Punishments of Romance

When Elias heard that, he was stunned for a second. I didn’t think something like that would come out of my mouth either. Amanda. You’re the first person I’ve ever said something like that to.

“What’s with the silence?” Amanda asked.

“Well, I didn’t think I would say something like that either. If you want to hear more of that, I could always say that to you.” While Elias would never flirt with another woman like that, he had no problem doing that to Amanda.

“Such a sweet-talker… I don’t like a man who flirts. So, when are you coming back?” Amanda quickly changed the subject.

“Maybe another 3 to 4 days. What’s wrong? Is there something urgent?” Elias lit up the cigarette in his mouth and took a puff on it.

On the other hand, Amanda’s eyes darkened when she heard Elias’ response. 3 to 4 more days? Oh man, why is this taking so long? I wish Elias could know that I dare not leave home until he is back. Despite the thought of that, Amanda refused to add to Elias’ worry, knowing he was stressed enough with his work. After all, she knew Elias would immediately rush back home if she told him about their current situation. If he did that, his work and his company’s image would be affected, which was not something that Amanda wanted.

“Aiden and I will be waiting for you. We’ll see you home once you’re done with your work. Have a good rest for now. I bet you still have to wake up early tomorrow morning.”

“Sure, babe. Send me a text message before you hit the hay. I want to know that you go to bed safe and sound.

“Alright.” Amanda smiled helplessly and hung up the call, ready to take a shower. However, just when she entered the bathroom, she received a call from Symeon. After a brief hesitation, she reluctantly decided to answer it. “Why did you call?”

the other side of the phone mocked Amanda, finding her action laughable.
