Elias’ Crimes and Punishments of Romance

Casey was left in a daze, staring at the man before her for a very long time. She couldn’t help but recall the image of Amanda leaving the study at Galaxy Bay earlier that day-disheveled clothing, tousled hair, flushed checks. There was no way something innocent had occurred. in that study.

She couldn’t understand how someone as good as Elias could be betrayed by Amanda.

“It sounds like you’ve encountered some emotional setbacks, Miss Carter.”

“Yes, and no,” she replied. Was this really just an emotional setback? She had inexplicably given birth to Symeon’s child, and she still had no idea how that had happened.

Elias placed his wine glass down and said, “Let me remind you, if it’s about Lawrence, it’s best to give up on that hope now. He’s not a good man, and you two won’t have any future. His presence here is only temporary; he’ll return to Esmos sooner or later. It’s getting late; I should go back. My wife wouldn’t be pleased if I’m late.”

After he finished speaking, he turned and left.

Casey stood there, watching his retreating figure, deep in thought for a long time.

She knew Symeon was unreliable and wouldn’t actively pursue anything. However, she had already entered Symeon’s world, and now she even had Dulcie. There was no escaping it.
