Chapter 21 Out of Jealousy

If admitting that will make Grandpa stop what he so doing no 1 gladly do it. At the thought of that, Amanda took a deep breath and replied. “Yes, that’s right. I’m in love with sceneone else?

When Howard heard Amanda’s words, his face was filled with dubeled. At the same time he was stunned and unable to react. Meanwhile, Elias only stared at Arunda without blinking, seemindy trying to see through her soul. Deep down, he was overwhelmed by a stab of pain that he couldest explain why

While the two men fell silent in a preoccupied manner. Amanda seemed a little shocked by their reactions, wondering what was going on. This creepy. Say something fellas. Stop staring at me in eerse silence.

Feeling uncomfortable, she probingly said. “As you can see, Grandpa, there’s no way we’re going to remarry each other. Thus, I’d like you to stop wasting your time.”

Don’t tell me the feelings you had for Elias were all fake. How did you move on so easily!! I don’t buy your story!”

Amanda was speechless at Howard’s stubbornness, wondering where she could find a man to play along with her. “I. He is a busy man, Grandpa. He’s now somewhere abroad, and it’s probably going to take him a while until he comes back.” She came up with an excuse to convince Howard.

“No problem. I’ll wait for him to come back. I will only believe you when I see him in person. Otherwise. I’m convinced you’re lying right now,” Howard answered.

How much do you know about his family background? How old is he? Is he a disciplined man who doesn’t mess around with women?”

Amanda became annoyed with Elias interference. What are you doing!! Are you out of you something? It’s bad enough that Grandpa doesn’t buy my story, yet you’re trying to make things more dificul than they already are.
