Chapter 164


    Chapter 164 Jealousy


    Back at Winters Estate, the first thing that Elias wanted to do was to soak in the hot spring. A satisfied


    smile hung on his face as he recalled Amanda’s reaction from tonight, finding it interesting because it


    showed that she cared about him, at least.


    Then, Boris approached him. “Mr. Winters, your first love is waiting for you in the guest lounge. Are you


    going to meet her now?”


    Elias stopped in his tracks and turned to Boris in bewilderment, asking, “First love? I don’t have a first


    love.” If Lazarus hadn’t made up a first love for him, he wouldn’t know what love was, and neither did


    he need something like first love.


    “Ady by the name of Miss Knox is here to look for you, iming to be your first love,” Boris answered


    truthfully.


    How did a person really appear out of nowhere? Miss Knox? Elias repeated, and no matter how he


    racked through his brains, he couldn’t remember ever knowing anyone by that name. A few seconds


    passed by quietly before he headed toward the guest lounge, where a woman in a beige-colored dress


    was patiently waiting for him on the couch. Elegant with a dignified temperament, she had skin as


    wless as a baby’s and appeared a little anxious as she browsed her phone.


    When he stepped into the room and saw the woman’s back silhouette, he frowned. Who’s this?


    Regardless, he couldn’t recall who this was and strolled to the front of the couch. So, he stared at the


    unfamiliar face as he asked, “Who are you?”


    The woman rose to her feet and appeared fearful when she looked at him. “Hello, Mr. Winters. My


    name is Natasha Knox, and Mr. Lazarus Harvard told me to look for you so that we can put up a


    performance together.”


    All of a sudden, his face turned livid, and he went to a corner, whisked out his phone, and called


    Lazarus number. The call rang for a long time, so he hung up and called Lazarus’ other number before


    he finally reached him. There was a lot of noise from Lazarus’ end, and Elias was sure that he was


    partying somewhere.


    “What the f*ck are you doing?” he hissed angrily. “Who’s this Natasha and what’s she doing here? Am I


    really going to have a ‘first love’ out of nowhere?”


    From the other end, Lazarus sounded as frivolous as he always did. “Calm down. It’s about time you


    change this temper of yours. If you want to reach your target, of course, you’ll have to use all means


    and ways and put up a perfect show. Otherwise, it’s only a matter of time until Amanda senses


    something


    amiss.”


    “Get lost!”


    When he was about to hang up, Lazarus unexpectedly said, “Let me tell you. Amanda is probably at a


    loss and running around like an ant on a hot te now, but there’s nothing she could do. Don’t worry.


    She’ll be the first to ask you out in less than two days.”


    “Are you sure something so miraculous will happen?” he asked with a look of doubt. Somehow, he


    couldn’t bring himself to believe it. Now, Amanda was apletely different person from whom she


    was four years ago; she wasn’t madly in love with him and didn’t need him at all. Would she ask him


    out because of a made-up first love? When he asked to reinstate their marriage, she didn’t even so


    much as look at him. Would a ‘first love’ even work?


    “My dear Mr. Winters, just wait and see if you don’t believe me. Don’t call her in the next couple of days


    and don’t look for your son, either. Keep your dignity and don’t meet her. Instead, a pleasant surprise is


    waiting for you if you just bide your time. Go to bed early. I already arranged a big show for you to


    participate in tomorrow.”


    A big show? Elias disliked a few things and one of those just happened to be having things out of his


    control. Even though he was the male lead in the show, he didn’t even know how the script would be


    going. “As the main character of this grand show, don’t I have the right to know how the script goes?


    What are you nning again this time?” He was almost at the end of his patience, thinking, Why does


    this rascal always have so many weird and bad ideas?

    However, Lazarus simply chuckled. “It’s not fun if I tell you beforehand. Just wait for the show tomorrow


    and watch how Amanda’s walls crumble,” he said and hung up.


    Elias stared at the screen of his phone and turned to the woman in the guest lounge, not knowing what


    would happen tomorrow. Recently, he felt that he could already be an actor as his part-time job.


    The next morning, Elias arrived at work as usual. There were a lot of meetings to attend today and


    there was one with the higher management at 9.00AM. After he arrived, he wanted to wait for Amanda


    who would be reporting for work and taking over the job, but he had to leave for the meeting because


    there wasn’t any time left.


    Just when he was about to head toward the conference room, a woman caught his attention; she was


    his ‘first love’ who showed up at his housest night! What’s this woman named Natasha doing here?


    Natasha was dressed in professional attire as she carried a stack of documents in her hands and


    stopped in front of him, looking as though she truly belonged here. “Mr. Winters, the meeting will start in


    ten minutes. You can head over there now.”


    Elias stared at the woman in front of him as surprise shed past his eyes. “Who are you?”


    Last night he asked her the same question because he really had no idea who she was, but he asked


    this question now because he had no idea what she was up to with Lazarus. Both of them were so


    secretive and mysterious that they had told him absolutely nothing.


    She simply answered with a smile, “I’m your new secretary, Mr. Winters.”


    Secretary? he repeated in his head speechlessly, gaping at her for a long time before he finally headed


    toward the conference room with Natasha trotting behind him.


    All of a sudden, a rumor started to spread in the office. “Do you know anything about that new girl.


    Natasha Knox?”


    “Who’s that? Is she some rtive of a higher management staff?”


    “No, you’re absolutely wrong! She’s Mr. Winters’ first love! Why else do you think her first job here is as


    his secretary? Tsk…”


    “What? Mr. Winters’ first love?! That’s unexpected. I would have never imagined that! Why did he give


    her the position of lead secretary? Does he intend to pursue her? Why do first loves have such a strong


    influence on men that they can never forget about them?”


    “Who knows? But that’s just how men are. Just the thought of it is exciting. Imagine having your first


    love as your secretary now…”


    Ding Dong!


    The clevator doors slowly rolled open, and Amanda stepped out. She was here to take over the job, but


    the moment she entered the building of Winters Enterprise, she heard all sorts of gossip about Elias.


    Did I just overhear them saying that Elias’ first love is working here now?


    Once again, her curiosity was piqued. Did they really rekindle their lovest night and he gave her a


    position to work here the next day? Can’t Elias Winters wait at all? Did he already forget about his son?


    Out of the blue, she felt a tinge of jealousy in her heart, which made her inexplicably uneasy. “”sshole,”


    she muttered under her breath. Why are so many women involved with him? They keeping one


    after another like zombies, but this first love…. Her heart sank. Is she his favorite? What’s going on


    now? Are they patching things up?


    She wanted to find out what this woman looked like more than ever, and ording to the gossip…. It


    seems that this very woman she was curious about was in the conference room with Elias now.
