The Barrister's Love in Town

Chapter 532

Chapter 532 You Must Be Seriously Crazy

Amanda was rendered speechless, unable to refute. It was true that Elias from before disliked her and always tried to avoid her.

Seeing her silence, Symeon asked a bolder question. “If you had met me first instead of Elias, would you have fallen for me?”

“What? Are you even hearing yourself?!”

Panic overcame Amanda suddenly, and she thought, He’s not interested in me, is he? Hell no, don’t!

The last thing she wanted was to get involved with a difficult big shot like him.

Symeon stared into her eyes and asked again, “If Aiden were really my child, and you were the woman I had a one-night stand with back then, how would you have chosen? Would you stay by my side like you do with Elias?” NôvelDrama.Org owns this.

Amanda widened her eyes. She truly hadn’t expected Symeon to ask such a question. It was insane; how could he even entertain such a thought?!

She took a step back and resolved not to visit and care for Dulcie in person anymore. She was genuinely scared.

“You must be seriously crazy,” she said, then immediately turned and got into her car to swiftly drive away.

Symeon, on the other hand, stood rooted to his spot, and a chuckle escaped him before letting out a deep sigh. He didn’t understand why he had acted this way.

He was mocking his own immaturity and the tragedy of encountering a woman like Casey.

Since childhood, he had always hoped to live in a happy and harmonious family. But his father’s repeated infidelity shattered his expectations for marriage. Now, with Dulcie, he hoped even more that she could grow up in a happy family. Unfortunately, he had crossed. paths with Casey, an irresponsible woman.

What Symeon didn’t know was that Casey had followed him to the kindergarten. She stood behind a tree and had heard nearly the end of their conversation, wearing a shocked expression that she couldn’t shake off.

So… Symeon likes this woman? And this woman was married, with a child? Oh my…

With a frightened expression, Casey turned and fled. She couldn’t believe the esteemed Mr. Lawrence, who seemed so aloof and indifferent to everyone, would actually fall for a married

woman.

No wonder Dulcie said her father wanted to find her a new mother. Is Symeon looking to break up someone else’s family and forcibly marry this woman?

Thinking this, Casey felt like her moral compass was shattered.

No, this can’t happen!

If Dulcie was really her daughter, she would never allow her daughter to call another woman.

“Mom.”

After returning home, Casey kept thinking about the woman Symeon was talking to.

That woman was stunning, exuding an air of wealth and sophistication in her every move. Moreover, anyone who could send their child to the Royal International Kindergarten. should have a wealthy husband.

As she passed by the garden, she saw her father, Philip, and Eleanor locked in an intimate embrace again.

She couldn’t understand why her father, at his age, could still be so lecherous.

Philip noticed his daughter passing by and quickly gestured to Eleanor to behave. After all, they were still elders.

“Casey, come here.”

Casey had initially intended to just keep walking, but hearing her father’s summons, she reluctantly went over to see what he wanted.

With great reluctance, she approached her father. “Dad, what do you want?”

“I have found a potential spouse for you recently. Take some time to meet them, and if you fancy any one of them, get married by the end of the year.”

“Why? I’m still young-only twenty-four years old. Why are you in such a hurry to marry me off?” Casey looked at Eleanor beside her father and suddenly understood. It was probably this vixen who had been whispering in her father’s ear.

Eleanor wanted to marry her off quickly so that her father would focus all his attention on them, mother and son, and fight for the family fortune.

Eleanor smiled and said, “A woman’s best years are just a few, so while you’re still young and beautiful, why not quickly find a wealthy and dependable husband? This

way, both your father and I can rest assured about your future.”

“Eleanor Collins, let me tell you, don’t even think about kicking me out of this house.”

Philip frowned. “How can you call Eleanor like that?! She’s also doing it for your own good. Your mother is no longer here, and I can’t communicate with you anymore either. Finding a man to stand by your side isn’t a bad idea. I don’t want to see you lonely.”

Philip had completely fallen under the spell of that vixen, and no matter what Eleanor said, he believed it.

“If you’re afraid I’ll be lonely, then transfer all the shares of the companies under your name and all your assets to mine! That way, I’ll never be lonely, and I will fight whoever says I’m lonely!”

Casey’s words stunned Philip. He never expected his daughter to say such things.

Eleanor seized the opportunity to add fuel to the fire. “Casey, what are you saying? Your father is still alive; how could he transfer everything to you? Besides, you have a younger brother. Are you just going to leave him with nothing?”

“Younger brother? Since when do I have a younger brother? My mom died a long time ago, and she only gave birth to me!”

The next second, Philip slapped her across the face. The loud slap made Eleanor grin smugly. Still, she pretended to be kind and grabbed Philip, saying, “Honey, what are you doing? How can you slap your child? She’s just being foolish; she’ll understand your good intentions in the future.”

“Casey, if you really think this way, then I’ve completely failed in raising you all these years! You disregard even your own family and only think about fighting for the family fortune! Can I rely on you when I’m old?” Philip was so angry that he felt his blood pressure rising.

Casey touched her cheek, feeling the impact of the slap. This was the first time her father. had ever slapped her. Tears slowly welled up in her

in her eyes.

Seeing her crying, Philip felt a twinge of regret. After all, she was his own daughter.

Casey, holding back her tears, looked at her father and seethed, “Your upbringing of me? What have you taught me? To have affairs time and time again, to marry and divorce repeatedly? Or have you taught me how to force my husband’s first wife to death?”

“You! You wretched creature! What are you saying? You…”

Philip clutched his chest, struggling to stand as he was overwhelmed with anger. But the more Casey cursed, the happier Eleanor became, as it served her interests.

“Both of you have driven my mother to her death, and now you want to drive me out of this family?! Well, let me tell you, dream on! My mother’s shares are mine, and I will never hand

them over to you! Forget about it!”

With that, Casey turned and left, tears streaming down her face. She couldn’t bear to look at

that despicable couple for another moment.
