The Barrister's Love in Town

Chapter 91 Are You Trying to Tell Me How to Do My Job?
Seizing the opportunity, Elias tentatively asked, “How long did you stay that night? Why didn’t I see you when I woke up?”
He simply wanted an explanation for why he found Grace by his side instead of Amanda upon awakening.
Impatiently, Amanda replied, “I received a phone call about my critically ill mother, so I had to leave early.”
“So, you left while I was still unconscious?” Elias memory started piecing together the puzzle. A few days after the celebration
banquet. Amanda’s mother passed away and she asked for his assistance in organizing the funeral.
Suddenly, it all clicked into place.
That was the reason.
At that very moment, Amanda’s phone rang. It was a call from Aiden.
She glanced at it but didn’t dare to answer in front of Elias, so she ended the call.
“I don’t have time to discuss this with you. I have things to take care of. I’m heading back.” Amanda glanced at the time, realizing
she needed to hurry home to check on the little brat, or he would pester her relentlessly on the phone.
With that, she made her way back to her car and drove off toward Galaxy Bay
Elias stood alone beneath the streetlights, deep in thought. Can it be that Grace had been deceiving me?
Honk, honk!
Amanda pressed the car horn twice and directed her words to the man standing outside the car window. “Get back to the
hospital quickly! If you don’t, I won’t answer your calls ever again, and you can forget about me unblocking you!”
With those words, she drove off, leaving the man behind.
Elias chuckled softly. Despite Amanda’s stern words, he understood her underlying concern.
It was evident that she still cared for him.
As Amanda arrived back at the villa, she was immediately greeted by a whirlwind of joy as she stepped into the living room.

“Mommy! Mommy!”
“Aiden, are you trying to knock me over? Why have you become so heavy lately?” Amanda’s body stumbled backward from the
impact, but she managed to catch the little bundle in her arms flawlessly.
“Well, I’m a man, Mommy. It’s only natural that I keep getting heavier.”

She couldn’t help but burst into laughter. What a delightfully innocent perspective!
“Mommy! Mommy, let me tell you how amazing Miss Selina is. She knows Taekwondo! I want to learn it too, so I can protect
you!” Aiden’s chubby hands formed a circle around her ear as he leaned in and whispered excitedly.
“What do you mean you can protect me? I’m strong too, you know. Do you like the new nanny?” Amanda’s mood brightened as
well. This little brat seemed to be getting along well with the new caregiver.
Suddenly, a woman’s voice interrupted their conversation. “Hello, I’m Selina Yaleman,” the woman introduced herself and
Amanda looked up, frozen in place.
Selina was equally stunned after seeing Amanda’s face.
“Selina? What a coincidence that it’s you!”
At that moment, memories flooded back to Amanda, taking her back to her childhood when her father hadn’t yet kicked her and
her mother out of the house. They used to live in a vibrant alleyway, filled with laughter and the lingering scent of smoke.
Every day, she would play hopscotch with her best friend, Selina. However, after her father kicked them out, Amanda never saw
Selina again.
Selina was also overwhelmed with astonishment. “Oh, my goodness, Amanda! I never expected to see you here. I thought I
would never lay eyes on you again in this lifetime.”
To Amanda’s surprise, the caregiver assigned to her by the domestic service center turned out to be her long-lost childhood
friend.

This brought her great relief. She could now confidently leave Aiden in the care of her childhood friend, knowing that he was in
good hands.
Amanda couldn’t help but laugh from the bottom of her heart. “Me too!”
“Amanda, you’ve blossomed into such a beauty and you’re living in such a luxurious house. Did you marry a rich guy? And look
at this adorable baby of yours. You’re definitely winning at life! Selina commented, her eyes filled with a mixture of admiration
and envy. They used to be childhood playmates, but she never anticipated such divergent paths in their lives.
Amanda’s expression turned slightly awkward. “It’s a long story. I’ll fill you in gradually. It’s not exactly what you imagine.”
The following day, Elias’ car came to a gentle halt outside the cemetery as the rain drizzled incessantly.
Yacob held a black umbrella and opened the car door. Elias, with his tall figure, stepped out and made his way toward the
cemetery.
His gait was slow and somewhat feeble, clearly indicating that his wounds hadn’t fully healed. The gloomy weather further
exacerbated his discomfort.
With the umbrella in hand, Yacob walked behind him and said, “Mr. Winters, let’s return to the hospital in the afternoon. If Old Mr.
Winters finds out you left without permission, he’ll surely start lecturing again.”

Howard remained oblivious to Elias unsanctioned departure from the hospital. If he were to discover it. his temper would surely
reach its boiling point.
“Are you trying to tell me how to do my job?” Elias shot him a cold glance.
Yacob bowed his head in resignation. “No”
As they gradually approached Yelan’s tombstone, they noticed Grace standing in front of it from a dozen

meters away
Both of them stopped in their tracks and didn’t move forward.
Standing before the tombstone was Grace with a black umbrella in her hand. Tears cascaded down her face as she fixed her
gaze upon her brother’s photo engraved on the stone. She continuously brushed away the tears, unable to contain her sorrow
Out of the corner of her eye, she caught a glimpse of Elias figure, which made her cry even harder. Placing the bouquet of
flowers she held before the tombstone, she gently touched her brother’s photo. “Yelan. I’ve come to visit you. I’ve been so
occupied lately and haven’t been here for a while. You won’t hold it against me, will you?”
Ever since Grace entered the entertainment industry, her first lesson was acting. She didn’t want to embarrass herself in front of
Elias, who had provided her with opportunities in film and television.
Although she possessed a talent for acting, her popularity struggled to soar despite being recognized for her exceptional acting
skills.
“Yelan, Elias had a car accident. It happened on his birthday. Are you punishing him for me? I beg you, Yelan, please don’t hurt
him. My hurting myself had nothing to do with him. I truly love him. If anything happens to him. I won’t be able to go on. I beg
you. Yelan. Even if he doesn’t believe me, doesn’t like me. or wants to abandon me. I don’t want to see him get hurt because I
really like him.”
Grace put on a convincing display of sincerity that could deceive anyone.
The raindrops gradually grew larger, splattering into droplets on the ground.
Standing behind Elias, Yacob was deeply moved as he listened to Grace’s heartfelt words.
Elias stared at her figure with an emotionless expression for a long while. Eventually, he didn’t approach her but turned away and
left the cemetery.
Yacob was momentarily stunned and almost couldn’t keep up with Elias footsteps, causing the latter to get drenched in the rain.
Meanwhile, as Grace remained kneeling before the tombstone, she watched Elias’ retreating figure. A faint smile appeared on
her lips, while tears continued to flow down her cheeks, giving her a somewhat eerie feeling

She raised the umbrella slightly and watched the tall and handsome figure of Elias. Under her breath, she whispered, “I don’t
believe that you have a heart of st
