Chapter 378 You Better Not Touch Me


    “You’re quite stubborn. Good, I admire that.” Symeon grabbed Amanda’s chin, forcing her to look into


    his eyes.


    At this moment, she was indeed a little flustered, so she resorted to mentioning Elias to save herself.


    “You better not touch me, or you’ll regret it.”


    “Oh? Tell me, how will I regret it?” He seemed unimpressed, not thinking that she could do anything to


    him.


    “No matter how powerful you are abroad, here you’re just a stranger in a foreignnd. Your power


    means nothing here,” she replied.


    “Is that so? It seems like you have someone backing you. Tell me about it.” He maintained his


    nonchnt attitude, almost asking for a beating.


    Amanda didn’t really want to brag, but in this critical situation, her life was at stake. As she stared firmly


    into his eyes, he said, “My father is Jack Allegra, the chairman of the Allegra Group, and my husband is


    Elias Winters, the head of the Winters Enterprise. If you dare to touch me, they won’t let you leave this


    country so easily.”


    However, seeing that he was influential himself, she wasn’t sure if Jack and Elias could intimidate him,


    After all, during her time abroad, she had heard a bit about the Lawrence Family’s enormous wealth


    and their century-old family status.


    After hearing her words, Symeon smirked eerily. “Indeed, that’s something you have there. But… What


    did you say just now? Is Elias your husband? Are you sure you’re not joking with me?”


    At this moment, her eyes lit up with hope. So, he knows Elias. There’s still a chance, then, “Yes. He’s


    my husband.”


    “For how long have you been married?”


    Amanda hesitated. If I tell him that we are in the process of getting a divorce, he will dismiss it and


    continue to keep me imprisoned. After careful consideration, she said, “Five years.” If we hadn’t


    divorced, it would have been five years since we got married.


    Suddenly, Symeonughed even harder. After he released her chin, he walked to the side, lit a


    cigarette, and ced it between his lips. “I met Mr. Winters at a partyst year, and he told me that he


    was single. So, when did you suddenly be his wife? And you’ve been married for five years?”


    Hearing that, she widened her eyes in shock. Does he actually know Elias?


    “You really have guts, daring to make up such lies. Do you think I don’t understand the situation in


    Cludan, so you can just talk nonsense to me? Sorry, but I happen to know your so-called Mr. Winters.”


    Symeon looked at her embarrassed expression and enjoyed her difort. Unraveling human deceit


    was the man’s favorite pastime.


    At this point, she had no choice but to tell the truth. “Since you know Elias, then I’ll be honest with you. I


    was married to Elias, but we got divorced. When you met himst year, we were divorced, so, of


    course, he would say he was single. Even when we were married, we kept it low-profile, and Elias


    never imed to be married, so hardly anyone knew about our marriage. Thinking back, it was truly


    heartbreaking.


    After hearing her exnation, he let out a scornful chuckle. “You’re quite persistent, huh? You


    immediatelye up with a new lie after being exposed. You’re a habitual liar. How much of what you


    say is actually true?”


    It seems useless to say anything to him. She noticed that he was now sitting on a couch a few steps


    away from her. Immediately, she turned around and rushed to open the door, making her escape.


    When Symeon saw this, he muttered, “Sh*t!” How did I let her escape? Where are my men guarding


    outside?


    He dialed his bodyguard’s number, and the bodyguard’s voice came through the phone. “I’m sorry, sir. I


    thought she couldn’t escape, so I went to the restroom.


    “Bring her back to me!”


    “Yes, sir.”


    After hanging up the phone, he remembered the name Amanda had mentioned earlier. Elias Winters?


    Well, well. Things are getting interesting. It seems like this woman has some skills. She managed to


    climb into my bed and catch Elias’ attention.


    Initially, he thought she was just a brainless fool, but he hadn’t expected her to be so scheming. I don’t


    think Elias is easily swayed by women. Now, I’m getting more curious about the child she gave birth to.


    A child born with her intelligence should not be too stupid.


    After Amanda ran out of the room, she didn’t dare go directly to the elevator; instead, she chose to take


    the stairs.


    She hid in the hallway and heard the bodyguards looking for her outside. Nervously, she held her


    breath, and tiny beads of sweat appeared on her forehead. I can’t remember thest time I was this


    nervous.


    After she heard the bodyguards leave, she cautiously walked down the stairs. These heels are killing


    me. She immediately threw away her high heels and hurried down the stairs, even though she was on


    the tenth floor. If he catches me again, I’m afraid I will never return.


    It took her a full ten minutes to make it downstairs, and she was panting heavily. There shouldn’t be


    anyone chasing me anymore.


    She didn’t dare to take her car; instead, she ran outside the hotel and hailed a random cab. However,


    at this time, it was tough to find a cab. She waited for a long time but didn’t see one. So, she decided to


    continue walking in the direction of her home while waiting for a cab.


    Finally, she spotted a cabing from the front. She raised her hand to g it down, and the cab


    slowly. stopped in front of her.

    Only after she got into the cab and closed the door did she finally breathe a sigh of relief.


    It was an exhrating journey, for she feared that Symeon would catch up with her any Thankfully, she


    safely arrived outside the Allegra Vi.


    By the time she got home, it was already 3.00AM, and all the Allegras were asleep.


    Amanda tiptoed back to her room and closed the door. Just as she did, her phone rang again.


    It startled her, and her nerves almost shot. Her phone slipped from her hand and fell onto the carpet.


    As she patted her chest, she bent down to pick up the phone and saw another domestic unknown


    number.


    She then answered the call, asking, “Who is this?”


    “Do you think you can run away so easily? I can find you effortlessly. If you’re sensible,e to me


    yourself. By the time I find you, I won’t go easy on you” With that, the call ended.


    Shocked, her eyes widened. It’s him again!


    At this moment, a text message came in. She opened it, and it read, ‘No. 45, Sacred Heart Vi.’ It was


    from the same unknown number just now. Is this an address for me to find Lawrence? I’m not crazy!


    Why would I go find him? I won’t go! Absolutely not!
