After Death, Love Unveiled (Elara and Lysander)

"Stop it," Elara said, "Asher, oh Asher, you're not much older thane. Why are you getting more and more greasy with your words? You're always lamenting life and how difficult it is. You already have the aura of an old man." Her words amused Asher. "Maybe. The pressure is too great."

"What pressure do you have?" Elara found him ridiculous. "You have your own company now and a beautiful fiancee with a good family background, but you still like to cause trouble. What pressure can you have?"

Asher said, "Adair is good, but she doesn't love me. It's not like you don't know that her family doesn't like me. With my family background, being with her is just out of my league."

"In that case, why did you mess with her?"

"She initiated it."

"You didn't take the initiative and didn't refuse... Now that something has happened, you're saying she initiated it. Do you think you're pure and inocent?" Elara asked.

Asher listened to Elara's words and said, "In any case, it doesn't matter who I marry to me since I can't marry you."

"Then lock yourself with Daphne. I can tell that you still can't forget her."

'He likes Daphne, but he still blamed it on me, Elara thought.

Still, Elara was also quite surprised that Asher was still entangled with Daphne. After all, Daphne was pregnant and had an abortion back then.

But that was understandable.

In Elara's previous life, Daphne and Asher were fated to get married.

She thought perhaps this was their fate.

Asher said, "I'm not with her."

"You're the only one who believes that." In any case, Elara would not believe a single word he said.

Asher asked Elara, "If I get together with Daphne, will you be unhappy again? Back then, you left me and chose Lysander because of her."

"Stop saying that." Elara did not know how he could be so shameless. "I've never been with you, so how can I leave you? Why are you so shameless?

"Are all the people who have feelings for you your ex? Then, according to what you said, many people in the school liked you in the past. Are they all your exes?"

"I don't care about them. I only care about you," said Asher.

"If you have the time, you might as well do your job properly. Leave me alone."

"What's wrong with my work?" At the mention of this, Asher suddenly became energetic. "Back then, you said that you wanted to do this too... I'm doing so well now. Does that count as you losing?"

"I lost?" Elara said, "Go ahead and be smug. Let's see how long you can stay smug like this."

With that, Elara went upstairs.

Asher sat by the window and looked at her back. He lowered his head and picked up his phone to take a look.

He took the initiative to call Adair, who picked up...

She snorted softly. "Why are you still calling?"

"Let's break up." Asher said lightly.

"Asher!" Adair was furious when she heard his words. 'What the hell? I've been waiting for him to admit his mistake and apologize. Is this his attitude?'novelbin

Asher said, "I just find it annoying. Once we're together, you'll keep making a fuss. Any woman around me will probably become the target of your suspicion."

"My suspicion?" Adair asked, "So, are you saying I've wronged you? This time, Daphne took the initiative to come to me."

"You fired her," Asher said, "It's not easy for her to find a job. A wealthy lady like you can fire others just like that. But haven't you thought about someone else's life?"

At the mention of this, Ashier would remember that when he had done a good job in Mandinion Technology, he got fired because of Elara.

He had always hated this kind of thing.

If it were other companies, he could do nothing about it because he had to consider other people's feelings.

But Adair meddling in his company made him uncomfortable.

Adair said, "Don't talk about these principles. You're just protecting her. The two of you are together, but you still pretended when I was there. "That bitch has already admitted that you didn't come over on the night of our engagement because you were with her. Asher, stop pretending." "Yes. I'm protecting her," Asher said, "So what?"

"Alright, if you dare to treat me like this, do you believe you won't have a good ending?"

"Whatever." Asher hung up.

Adair didn't know where his confidence came from.

She thought, 'Had he forgotten I was the one who invested in him and introduced people to him when Adam and the others were unwilling to bring him along when they made short videos?

"I was the one who stood on his side. That was why he got up. How dare he cause such a scene because of a woman?

Adair was not idle either. She directly withdrew her investment from his company.

As she wished, Asher directly cut ties with her.

Elara went to the countryside. It was her client Silas Gilbert's hometown.

The person she was representing now was a murderer.

He was only 20 years old...

Chapter 223-

He was sentenced to death for killing his biological father.

His mother came to ask Elara to help represent him.

The story wasn't complicated. Silas's father was abusive, drank, id gambled...

His mother was weak and couldn't get a divorce.

Every time she asked for a divorce, she would be beaten half to death. None of her family members supported her divorce.

In addition, Silas's father had threatened her with the child, so she had been staying in this house.

Silas's grades had always been good. To let Silas go to school, his mother got beaten up by his father too many times. However, she still sent her son to university, and he was the only university student in the village. His father had suppressed him since he was young.

He had gotten into a good university, and everyone thought that he was going to make a name for himself, but he killed his father.

At the mention of this, his mother, Mandy Gilbert's tears kept flowing...

She brought Elara to their house, where they lived, and the room that Silas used to live in.

The house was an old wooden house. It had been repaired repeatedly.

Inside was the certificate that Silas had received since he was young...

Mandy said, "His grades are good, and he's very filial. His father is not a good person..."

Elara said, "Have you called the police?"

"What's the use of calling the police?" Mandy said in despair. "Even if we call the police, they won't lock him up forever.

"After he's released, he'll still beat me up. In the past, many people came to our house and scolded him. He looked obedient on the surface. But when others left, he became even worse. We don't dare..." She did not dare to risk being beaten up to provoke her husband.

Elara looked at Mandy. Even though that person had died, she could still see fear on Mandy's face.

Mandy said to Elara, "Ms. Kensington, please save him. He's still young..."

Silas had killed his father not out of self-defense, but out of conspiracy.

He'd bought the drugs and taken his father's life when his father had lost the ability to fight back.

Elara had seen him before. He was not afraid of being sentenced to death. Instead, he looked relieved.

His nightmare that had lasted for 20 years was finally over.

After returning from the countryside, the assistant sat beside Elara and sighed. "He had a better way to deal with it. He could have called the police and taken a legitimate solution.

"Why did he use such an extreme method? He should have had a bright future. What a pity!"
