    Chapter 391 Face-to-Face Confrontation


    Suddenly, the phone rang, and it was Symeon calling. She could already imagine what he was going to


    say but decided to answer the call after a brief hesitation.


    Before Amanda could utter a word, Symeon’s voice could be heard from the other end. “What more do


    you have to say now? Isn’t it time for you to fulfill your promise?”


    My promise?


    Amanda bit her lip and was about to have an emotional breakdown, but she patiently exined to the


    man on the phone, “Mr. Lawrence, I’m genuinely astounded by you. I now firmly believe that you’re


    doing. this deliberately. You aren’t clueless; you’re intentionally trying to separate me from my child by


    fabricating multiple paternity tests. I truly can’tprehend why you want to take my child away. Is it


    because of a grudge against Elias?”


    That was the only reasonable exnation she could think of. He wanted to retaliate against Elias by


    taking away their child due to their deep-seated animosity.


    “So, you’re attempting to backtrack on your words once again, huh?” Symeon retorted.


    “I have nothing more to say, but I want to make it clear that the child isn’t yours. If you have any


    grievances with Elias, confront him directly. What kind of man seeks revenge by involving an innocent


    child?” Amanda dered before abruptly ending the call. She, too, was infuriated.


    Lawrence indeed possesses remarkable capabilities. He could produce counterfeit paternity test results


    both overseas and in Cludan. Meanwhile, Symeon chuckled coldly after the call ended abruptly. He had


    long foreseen that this woman would never admit her actions.


    “Master, what should we do next?”


    “I’ve done what I can by fulfilling everything she demanded. Now, we can only retrieve the child through


    our methods.”


    “Understood.”


    At the same time, at Allegra Vi, Amanda barged into Elias’ room and found him sleeping on the bed.


    after staying upte the previous night. “Elias, wake up, she urged.


    As she approached the bedside, Elias pulled her down onto the bed before pressing her beneath him


    and murmuring. “Stay with me for a while.”


    “What are you doing? Look at this! I strongly suspect that this person is targeting you, which is why


    he’s attempting to snatch our son as an act of revenge.


    Upon hearing the word ‘revenge’, Elias immediately awakened. He took hold of her phone and


    examined it intently while muttering, “Damn… I’ve had enough of this nonsense.”


    Elias suddenly lifted the covers, but his arm was grabbed by Amanda. “Where are you going?”


    “We’ve reached this point so we can only confront him face-to-face. I want to see what this guy is up


    to.”


    His impression of Lawrence remained stagnant from their brief encounter years ago. Logically


    speaking. what kind of grudge could exist between them? “Calm down. I find it odd… Simr to him.


    Amanda

    initially acted impulsively, but upon further contemtion, she found the situation rather strange.


    “Indeed, it’s peculiar. It seems as though someone deliberately led him to us.” Elias lit a cigarette and


    ced it between his lips.


    ncing at her, he asked, “Is our son awake? He shouldn’t go to kindergarten these days.


    “Yes, I know. I haven’t allowed him to go since you were away. I was afraid he might suddenly take our


    child away.


    However, the primary concern was how to resolve the current predicament. “I believe we should have a


    conversation with him”


    “Tll go talk to him.” Elias extinguished the cigarette butt. He thought that Symeon was likely telling the


    truth. Yet, to fullyprehend the situation, he needed to engage in a face-to-face conversation.


    Soon, eveping fell upon Sacred Heart Vi. Symeon, who had intended to go out, received an


    unexpected phone call from Elias, who requested to visit.


    “Master, what do you think Elias wants?”


    “What else could he want? He has just returned to the country and is unaware of everything. It’s most


    likely that he wants to probe the situation. However, I doubt he knows that he has been deceived.”


    Symeon was starting to admire Amanda. She dared to cuckold Elias and even had the nerve to


    comin about Symeon to Elias. How amusing.


    Ding! Dong! The doorbell rang outside, and the bodyguard turned to open the door. Meanwhile,


    Symeon assumed aposed posture and was prepared to have some fun with Elias. A deep and


    heavy footstep approached, but Symeon didn’t bother to turn around, for he knew who it was. However,


    a smirk appeared on his lips.


    It seemed to be two years ago when hest saw Elias. Elias, with his tall figure, slowly made his way to


    the other side and sat on the couch. He acted as if he were in his territory and showed no courtesy as a


    guest. Two formidable figures faced each other in silence, but the air was already thick with hostility.


    “Are you here to remain silent?” Symeon finally broke the silence.


    Elias sneered before lighting a cigarette and cing it between his lips. He exhaled a disgusted breath


    and flicked the ashes before saying. “Shouldn’t you be the one who starts the conversation? After all,


    you’vee all the way here to provoke me.”


    “I’m merely doing what needs to be done. The heir of the Lawrence Family must not remain estranged.”


    “Coincidentally, I wanted to say the same thing. The heir of the Winters Family mustn’t remain


    estranged either Elias straightened his posture and extinguished the cigarette in the ashtray.


    At that, Symeon let out a disdainfulugh. “Yours? Are you sure that child is yours?” With that, he


    tossed two paternity test reports onto the coffee table-one conducted in Esmos and the other in


    Cludan.


    Elias picked them up and nced at them while chuckling. “Quite thorough. You’ve conducted


    paternity. tests both domestically and internationally. I’m curious, have you managed to offend the


    entire medicalmunity? Why did they give you forged paternity tests?”


    “So, you firmly believe that the child is yours? Have you done a paternity test?” Symeon questioned.


    23


    “Of course.”


    “I’d advise you to do another one. Given our past encounters, I don’t want to see you raising my son


    while being cuckolded,” Symeon remarked calmly, seemingly undoubting his paternity test results.


    Elias’ anger red, and the smile on his handsome face gradually vanished. “Symeon, do you have a


    grudge against me?”


    “Why would you say that?”


    Elias lit another cigarette and exhaled smoke while suppressing his impatience. “If we have no


    grievances, why do you want to take my woman and child? Do you intend to raise my son for me? Or


    perhaps you’re interested in my woman?”


    Upon hearing that, Symeonughed and responded sarcastically. “Please get your facts straight. It’s


    not that I’m interested in your woman. Rather, your woman climbed into my bed, got pregnant with my


    child, but refused to return him to me. Though I hesitate to admit it, having a Lawrence Family heir


    outside poses a potential threat, and I must resolve this matter.
