The Barrister's Love in Town

“That’s of course. I don’t like kids who lie, so you have to tell the truth.” Amanda wiped

the water droplets from Aiden’s hair.

Aiden pondered for a while. “I do wish to have a father, but if you don’t like it, then I don’t

like it either. I just want you to be happy. Mommy.”

Amanda was at a loss for words. Although these words had been relayed to her by Selina

before.

her heart still melted into a puddle when she heard her son say so himself. She sometimes

thought it was a burden for a child so little to be this mature. Aren’t kids supposed to live

a carefree life doing whatever they like? “Aiden Bailey”

“Huh?” Aiden was taken aback at suddenly hearing Amanda call him by his full name. Did I

say something wrong?

She looked dead serious. She promised her son, “Don’t worry, I’ll find you a reliable father,

okay?”

He looked at her with a deep frown, though. “Mommy, you’ve said this a million times

before. You’re lying to me again, aren’t you?”

“No, I’m not! I’m absolutely not lying to you this time. I’m gonna start getting serious

about getting you a father.” Amanda used to still have a bit of fantasy about Elias before,

but now, she wouldn’t anymore. She would never choose this man again, even if all the

other men in the world. were dead.

Aiden was skeptical, though. “Is that so? Well then, I’ll believe you one more time. By the

way. Mommy, you know Tina from my kindergarten? Her dad is great, and he’s single, too.

Would you like to meet him?”

All at once, Amanda was rendered speechless. So, this little brat has been looking for a

new father in kindergarten already, huh? He really wants a father more than I thought.

Sigh… It’s understandable, though. Baby has never had a father to keep him company

since he was born. He keeps calling Simon Daddy,” this poor thing. “Alright, let’s go to

sleep. I’ll take care of looking for a daddy for you, so don’t worry about it. Just have fun

with the kids in kindergarten.”

She picked up her son-who smelled good like a baby-and carried him to bed in his

bedroom, putting the bottle of reconstituted powdered milk in his hand while she was at it.

“Be good and finish your milk before you go to sleep. I won’t be telling you bedtime stories

tonight. Now that you’ve grown up, you have to learn to sleep by yourself, him

“Alright, Mommy, I got it. Stop nagging already. Good night.” Aiden lay in bed holding his

milk bottle, drinking from it with his legs crossed in a comfortable posture.

At the sight of this, Amanda couldn’t help but laugh. He’s so good at enjoying himself.

Leaving his bedroom, she came downstairs to find Selina still busy in the kitchen. She

entered the kitchen and looked at the woman, who was washing the kitchen utensils. “It’s

so late already. Why don’t you go to bed early and leave them until tomorrow?” she urged

with a smile.

Selina looked back at her. “It’s okay, I’ll be done in a second. I overheard your

conversation with Baby when I passed by his room just now. What’s the matter? You’ve

come around and decided to go to your ex-husband?” She thought Amanda had realized

the lack of fatherly love for her child and might want to go to her ex-husband to get

remarried.

Amanda was startled for a moment. “No, that’s not it. I’m planning to get a new father for

Baby, actually. My ex-husband and I… We’re through, I guess. Recalling the scene at her

office today. she just felt that she and Elias were growing further and further apart. Maybe

suitable for each other at all. Otherwise, they wouldn’t have ended up getting divorced.

Perhaps divorce is the best ending for us. I shouldn’t get entangled with him anymore.

Selina replied with a faint smile, I don’t know what happened between the two of you, but

you must have your own reasons for making such a decision.”

Amanda smiled. “Thanks for your understanding. It really means a lot to me.”

Selina said, “You’ve got to keep your eyes open this time. A woman can never be too

careful when it comes to choosing her second husband. Don’t worry about your kid; I’ll

take good care of him for you. Just go to work and look for a husband with peace of mind.”

“Thank you so much, Selina.” Amanda felt really relieved leaving Aiden in Selina’s care,

which felt like leaving her child in the care of her own sister.

For the next few days, everything seemed to return to normal. Amanda went to work at

the law firm as usual, and Elias didn’t come after her again. He was probably still

recuperating in the hospital.

The elevator door slowly opened with a Ding!

Amanda stepped out of the elevator and was about to turn toward her office.

Unexpectedly, the door of the elevator next to hers opened as well, and Lunabelle stepped

out of it. “Amanda!” she called out to Amanda.

Amanda looked back at the woman before her, whom she recognized after a few seconds

as Lunabelle Gowen, Simon’s ex-girlfriend. “Hi, Miss Gowen.”

Lunabelle walked up to her with a smile. She apologized, I’m really sorry for what

happened last time. I didn’t know anything, and it was all a misunderstanding. Simon told

me everything. afterward, so I know everything now.”

Only then did Amanda realize that Lunabelle was referring to the previous incident where

Lunabelle had caught her and Simon ‘cheating

She replied. That’s okay. It wasn’t your fault, actually; it was Simon’s fault for not telling

you the truth and making you get the wrong idea.” In fact, she could tell that Simon and

Lunabelle obviously still cared about each other. It was just that Simon was unable to put

the past behind.
