Elias’ Crimes and Punishments of Romance

After the client left, the assistant and other staff members also left one by one. The last one even attentively closed the door to the conference room.

At this moment, only Elias and Amanda were left in the spacious conference room. It was so silent that they could even hear each other’s breathing.

Eventually, she couldn’t help but ask, “Why did you call me here in the first place?”

“I wanted to see if you were a real lawyer.”

She was taken aback and couldn’t help but chuckle. Of course, there was nothing mirthful about it. Instead, she was scoffing out of sheer frustration. So, she told this man to investigate the truth, and the first thing he investigated was her?

“Why go through all this trouble? You could have asked me to show you my credentials. Besides, I’ve been sitting here listening for two hours. Can you actually tell if I’m a real lawyer after making me sit through something so trivial?”

She couldn’t keep up with this man’s train of thought. What sort of nonsense was he thinking?

Finally, the man stood up slowly, buttoned his suit, turned around, and looked at her. “Have you eaten? If you haven’t, let’s have a meal together.”

Now, she was beyond confused. “You’re asking me if I’ve eaten? I rushed over as soon as I received the call. How could I possibly have had the time to eat?”

“Then, let’s eat together.”

He walked toward the conference room door, and she watched his retreating back, completely bewildered. What was this man trying to do? Was he making a fool out of her?

Nonetheless, she still followed him to a famous restaurant in Imperia. After the waiter served their food, he left the private room.

Amanda stared as Elias ate elegantly and couldn’t help but inquire, “So, you’re now able to sit. down and have a meal with me calmly?”

“Why can’t I? Since you’re so confident, coupled with the fact that I haven’t found the truth yet… Of course, I can.”

“So, why did you request my presence today?”
