The Lawyer’s Romance in Law

“Let her in.”

“Yes.”

Elias looked at the executives in front of him and said, “The future of the company relies on all of you for the next half month. If there’s anything, call me. Alright, you can go back to work now.”

The office door opened, and one by one, the people left. Then, Rosie walked in, holding a thermos in her hand.

“Elias, I see that you’ve been busy with work lately and not getting enough rest. So, I made some soup for you. Have some. I won’t take up much of your time. I’ll leave once you finish.”

He slowly stood up and walked toward the reception area. Then, he saw her open the thermos and pour a small bowl of soup on the side.

The man sat expressionlessly on the sofa, not even glancing at the bowl of soup in front of him. Instead, he looked at her and said, “You don’t have to do this. The Winters‘ chefs are hired to do such things.”

“But it’s different. I made it myself…”

Before she could finish her sentence, the man interrupted her, “I don’t need it. Besides, I’ll be going abroad for half a month.”

“What? Why?”

“That’s my business. I don’t see why I should tell you anything.”

She fell silent after hearing his blunt dismissal.

“Elias, why are you always so cold to me? What did I do wrong…”

“You didn’t do anything wrong. I know you’ve been good to me, and I know what you want. But I’m sorry. I can’t give it to you. It doesn’t matter what has happened between Amanda and me. I am still her husband. As for whether that child is mine… I want to verify it myself”
