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
explained 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’t
comprehend why you want to take my child away. Is it because of a grudge against Elias?”
That was the only reasonable explanation 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 declared 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?”

child through our methods.”
“Understood.”
At the same time, at Allegra Villa, Amanda barged into Elias’ room and found him sleeping
on the bed. after staying up late 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… Similar to him. Amanda

initially acted impulsively, but upon further contemplation, 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 placed it between his lips.
Glancing 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 fully comprehend the situation, he needed to engage in a
face-to-face conversation.
Soon, eveping fell upon Sacred Heart Villa. 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 complain about Symeon to Elias. How amusing.
Ding! Dong! The doorbell rang outside, and the bodyguard turned to open the door.
Meanwhile, Symeon assumed a composed 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 he last 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 placing 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’ve come all the way here to provoke me.”
“I’m merely doing what needs to be done. The heir of the Lawrence Family must not
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmremain 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 disdainful laugh. “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 glanced 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 medical community? 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.

“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 flared, 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, Symeon laughed 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.
