The Lawyer’s Romance in Law

Chapter 228 I Won’t Let You Off

“Elias is right. Why silence him? You’re the only fool here who can’t see through this slumdog’s intentions. He just wants to marry you so that he can live the rest of his life in wealth and luxury…”

However, before Jack could finish speaking, Stephanie interjected, retorting. “No, don’t say that, Dad! It’s not like that! Crisp didn’t know I was an Allegra when he first met me. He knew nothing and just genuinely liked me!”

With that, Elias walked out of the house, but Stephanie impeded him, grabbing him by the arm when he walked past her. “Elias, don’t go! You promised me you’d save Crisp.”

“Have I not done that?” Elias questioned, glancing icily at her. “Isn’t your beloved Crisp right in front of you? What else do you want?”

“Yes, you saved him, but why did you bring him here? You knew my dad was at home!” Stephanie believed Elias had deliberately brought Crisp over to Allegra Villa.
