“Dad, save me! I want to divorce Crispin! I want a divorce!” Stephanie rushed into the
study as if her life depended on it and hid behind her father.
Jack supported her unsteady body and furrowed his brows. “Regretting it now, huh? Do
you want a divorce now? Didn’t I warn you about this? You didn’t listen to a word I said.
You even had the audacity to run away from home and elope with that man!”
Stephanie couldn’t utter a single word. She simply continued sobbing with her head held
low. She knew she had made a mistake. It was her misjudgment that led her into the
scoundrel’s trap.
“I was wrong… I’m sorry, Dad…” Jack seemed to already know everything, and he didn’t
say anything else. Instead, he shielded her behind him. Outside, they could already hear
Crispin’s composed and steady. footsteps drawing near. When Stephanie heard those
footsteps, she was stricken with fear. She was now terrified of this man as if he were a
ghost.
“Did you call for me, Mr. Jack?” Crispin entered the study, still wearing an innocent smile
on his face.
With a resounding smack, Jack angrily slammed his hand onto the desk. “I never expected
you to have such audacity! I demand that you immediately divorce Stephanie and leave
the Allegra Family! We will not tolerate having a son-in-law like you!”
Indeed, Crispin displayed no signs of panic. Instead, he smiled. “Why are you acting like
this, Mr. Jack? Weren’t you moved by me? Why the sudden change of heart?”
“Get out! Get out now! I will have my lawyer handle the divorce proceedings with you!”
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtJack no longer wanted to see this se mbag.
At one point, Jack thought his eyes were playing tricks on him. Perhaps he had truly
misjudged Crispin, but the man didn’t disappoint him at all; he perfectly embodied the
impression Jack had formed when he first laid eyes on him, deceitful and cunning.
“Mr. Jack, we- Just as Crispin was about to speak, Jack shouted angrily, “Get out! I don’t
want a son-in-law like you!”
“You can’t put it that way. I married your daughter when her reputation was tarnished-”
“How dare you bring that up?! Stefan! Bring someone in and throw this animal out!” Jack
was boiling with anger as he called for the butler.
Within seconds, the butler and the bodyguards entered the study.
Crispin surveyed the scene before him and knew he wouldn’t have a favorable outcome if
he continued to cling on and not leave. A wise man knew when to retreat, so he departed.
He cast a profound gaze at Stephanie, who was hiding behind Jack, then turned around
and left the study, bidding farewell to the family for good.
As Crispin stood outside the Allegra Family’s villa, he turned to look at the house and
chuckled to himself. saying, “It won’t be that easy to chase me out. Since it’s a divorce
proceeding. I won’t hold back.”
He would hire the best lawyer and strive to secure as many benefits as possible.

In the evening. Amanda and Elias returned home after spending the entire day outside
playing with Aiden. Upon their return, they noticed a somber atmosphere enveloping the
entire house.
Just then, the butler approached them and asked, “Miss and Mr. Winters, have you had
dinner yet? Do you need the kitchen to prepare any food for you?”
“No, we’ve already eaten. By the way, why does the atmosphere feel strange? Where are
my parents? Also, where’s Stephanie?” Amanda asked.
The butler calmly explained what had transpired during the day, saying, “Well, after you
took Mr. Aiden out this afternoon, the chairman chased Crispin out and proposed a
divorce. The divorce proceedings will
commence soon.”
Elias remained unsurprised and commented, “Fits his style of doing things, decisive and
swift.”
“You knew about this? Am I the only one who didn’t know anything about it?” Amanda felt
like she had been kept in the dark all day.
Elias cradled their sleeping son in his arms and explained, “I’ve already handed the
evidence I found to Mr. Allegra. I shouldn’t interfere with how he handles it since it’s a
family matter.”
Amanda was lost for words when she realized that she was the only one who remained
uninformed.
Following that, Elias walked toward the elevator, and Amanda followed suit. Upon
returning to their room, they gently placed their son on the bed and covered him with a
blanket.
Then, Elias gestured for her to step outside. It seemed like he had something to say to her.
Amanda followed him out of the room and closed the door quietly, not wanting to disturb
their child. “Bring your ID along with you at 8.00AM tomorrow. I’ll have Yacob come pick
you up.”
“Huh?” Amanda was completely bewildered. She couldn’t understand what was
happening.
“What for?”
Elias’ handsome face showed a hint of calmness. “We’re getting married again, of course.”
“Us? Getting married?” Elias nodded slowly and asked, “Why? Are you having second
thoughts? I’ve fulfilled your requirements, so you have no reason to refuse me. Besides, I

even have a status, how can I have the qualifications to confront him?”
Although his reasoning made some sense, she couldn’t shake the feeling that he was
taking advantage of the situation. She hesitated to have such a hasty remarriage. When
Elias noticed her hesitation, it only strengthened his determination to remarry as soon as
possible. He feared that Amanda might change her mind at the last moment.
That’s settled, then. I’ll have Yacob come pick you up in the morning. I have some matters
to attend to tonight, so I won’t be sleeping here.” If it weren’t so late, he would have
eagerly taken Amanda to the city hall to register their second marriage.
“Hey, you- Amanda wanted to say something, but he seemed afraid of her refusal as he
turned and walked toward the elevator without giving her a chance to speak.
Feeling helpless, Amanda shook her head and decided to talk to Jack. She guessed her
parents were feeling.

quite down at the moment. As soon as she turned around, she saw Stephanie coming out
of the room. Before she could say anything, Stephanie embraced her and burst into tears,
saying. Thank you, Amanda. I’m finally going to be free. I can divorce Crispin and get rid of
him.”
Of course, Stephanie knew that Elias was willing to help only because Amanda was the
one who convinced him. Otherwise, given Elias’ impression of her, he wouldn’t willingly
assist her. Amanda was momentarily stunned but then hugged her in return.
The next day, Yacob arrived at the Allegra Villa to pick Amanda up early in the morning
while she was still asleep. She was half asleep and went to open the door when the nanny
knocked on it. Following that, the nanny informed her, “Miss, Mr. Winters’ bodyguard has
come to pick you up. He said you and Mr. Winters have important matters to attend to this
morning.”
Important matters? Suddenly, Amanda’s mind cleared up. We’re getting married again!
Indeed, they were supposed to register their marriage again this morning, but upon
glancing at the time, it was only 700AM. Is it really necessary to be this early?
“Okay.” Hearing that, the nanny nodded and turned to leave.
