In the meantime, Amanda agreed to accompany Aiden to the shopping mall in the afternoon, so she took Selina and the child there and bought a lot of gifts. After shopping, she asked Selina to take her son home while she went to the law firm. Despite her resolve to be honest with Elias, she struggled to put her thoughts into words.
She had just arrived at the law firm and was walking to her office when her secretary noticed her and immediately stood up. “Miss Bailey.”
She nodded with a smile, but unexpectedly, the secretary said. “Miss Bailey, Mr. Winters from Winters Enterprise is waiting for you in the office. He doesn’t look too happy. It seems like something important is going on.”
Elias? How come he showed up so quickly? Is he seeking revenge on behalf of Grace? Ha…. Amanda sneered inwardly. Doesn’t he claim not to love that woman? Yet, he couldn’t bear to see a single scratch on her. He know better than to put faith in a man’s word. Let’s see how he plans to avenge Grace. Then, she glanced at her secretary and said, “I understand. Don’t let anyone disturb us without my permission.”
“Understood.”
Afterward, she composed herself and headed in the direction of her office. She hesitated briefly, then opened the door, stepped inside, and closed it behind her. As she entered her office, her eyes. fell upon the man sitting on the couch in the reception area with his back facing her. However, his overpowering aura made the entire office feel suffocating. He exuded such a strong sense of animosity that it appeared he had come to settle accounts with her.
Tsk tsk….. There’s no doubt that she holds a special place in this vile man’s heart. Amanda walked toward the reception area, approaching the man. Looking at his dark expression, she spoke disdainfully. “What’s the matter? Are you so eager to come and settle scores with me? Didn’t you say you don’t love Grace? Can’t you handle it when she gets a few slaps from me?”
After hearing this, Elias stood up, his tall figure enveloping her delicate frame. “A few slaps? How dare you say it was just a few slaps? Do you not, as a woman, feel like you’ve crossed the line here?” His volume increased as he roared at her. Grace has suffered facial disfigurement. So, where does she go from here? She couldn’t stay in the entertainment industry, and it would be difficult for her to find a man, but Amanda treats these with apparent indifference. Initially, I hesitated to believe Grace’s assertions, but note Amanda admits it and does not even regret her malicious actions. I’m still baffled as to how she’s suddenly turned into this…..
She was stunned by his outburst, and it took her a second to gather her thoughts before she retorted, “Crossed the line? Were her actions not excessive, considering she is a woman? Am I going too far by slapping her? Do you even know what she has done? You know nothing!”
“I don’t need to know! I know you admitted to physically assaulting Grace and causing facial disfigurement! Do you know how important her face is to her?” Elias shouted angrily and even kicked over the coffee table before him.

Amanda looked at the overturned table and then at the man’s raging expression. She almost doubted her own eyes. “Elias, are you sure you don’t love Grace like you said? You’ve already. reached this level of indignation simply because I gave her a few slaps. How can a few slaps possibly disfigure her?
Is her face made of paper? I think her face is thicker than a city wall! After all the shameless things she has done-
However, her words were interrupted by cold laughter from the man. “Amanda! In addition to slapping her, you slash her face with a knife! She’s scarred for life. She’s a celebrity, and do you know what it means for her future if her face is scarred? I know I wronged you four years ago, but you didn’t have to disfigure her. This will bind me to her for the rest of my life, as I will have to care for her, and I also find it extremely annoying!”
Amanda glanced at Elias, perplexed by his words. What does he mean that I slashed her face with a knife? When did I use a knife? When did I give her a scar? Then, she asked, “What are you talking about? Don’t falsely accuse me. I didn’t slash her face! Besides, she has done so many disgraceful things, so what does she need her face for?” Her anger clouded her judgment, and she spoke without thinking.
Soon, he became irritated by her response and developed a severe headache. “Are you trying say that my accident was caused by her? Let me tell you, that’s impossible. She couldn’t have targeted me.” Since I am the person who knows Grace the best, I can say that she is a timid and shy woman who, after the passing of her brother, is trying to find solace in my company by clinging to me.
“Did you
find out? How can you say it wasn’t her? Do you have evidence? Besides, she didn’t just do that. What she did is enough for me to strangle her!” She couldn’t believe he trusted Grace so much and had no doubts about her.
After hearing this, his expression darkened as his eyes lingered over her delicate face, and his hands tightened around her slim shoulders. “Amanda, it’s all my fault. You’ve been through so much pain
because I didn’t believe your words four years ago, but Grace has no idea what I did. So, you took revenge on the wrong person. You should have targeted me!”
Amanda pushed away Elias’ hand upon hearing his explanation. “What if she harmed our child? What if our child is alive? Would you still defend her if she tries to murder our child?”
The man was taken aback as he stared at her. Grace’s earlier comments stuck with me: Amanda does indeed bring up the prospect of our child still being alive. Is she going crazy” “Amanda, there’s no ‘what if Stop making these hypothetical scenarios up, okay? Our child is dead because you aborted it four years ago! Why can’t you move on?” After uttering those words, he felt a severe headache approaching. The head trauma he had sustained in the car accident had already caused him to have a concussion, and additional mental labor and emotional stress would only worsen the
condition.
Nonetheless, she had completely lost control of her emotions and yelled at the man. “I never thought Grace held such a high position in your heart! Well, let me tell you, she’s the one who caused your car accident. She almost killed your son and nearly denied you the chance to see
with him! Do you hear me? After all of the nefarious things that she did, there was nothing wrong me slapping her a few times. So, how can a few slaps disfigure her face? Even if she dies, it won’t

relieve the hatred in my heart!”
Suddenly, the man’s hand struck Amanda’s face with a loud slap, and he shouted, “Shut up! Stop talking!”
Due to the impact of the slap, her face cocked to the side, and the silence that followed lasted long enough to hear a pin drop.
