The Barrister's Love in Town

Chapter 135

Chapter 135 Elias Instantly Blew a Fuse

“Sure, but after you finish school.” The corner of Elias’ mouth curled into a doting smile. As expected, everything my son does is lovable in my eyes.

Aiden immediately bounced on the spot with excitement upon hearing Elias’ agreement. “Yahoo! Fantastic! I want to go to school. I need to go to school right now and visit your garage later!”

Meanwhile, Amanda couldn’t help but close her eyes in exasperation when she caught sight of Aiden’s reaction. Then, she could only watch helplessly as her beloved son completely ignored her and bounded. straight into the passenger seat of Elias’ car. In fact, she even suspected that Aiden would jump sky high and immediately acknowledge Elias as his Daddy if she told him that Elias was his biological father.

“Aiden, how can you get in Mr. Winters’ car so easily? Don’t you have anything you want to say to me?” Amanda came near the car window with her arms crossed as she stared at her mischievous son in the car.

“Goodbye, Mommy. I will behave and play nicely with my friends in the kindergarten. Aiden was completely attracted to Elias’ sports car to the point that he didn’t even look up at Amanda when he said these words.

This made Amanda even more frustrated.

Selina, who was on the side, could tell Amanda was a little angry. “It’s just children’s nature, especially boys. It’s a universal law that all male species love sports cars,” she said, attempting to calm Amanda down.

In the meantime, Elias walked up to Amanda. “I will take charge of picking up Aiden to and fro these few days. I will also drive him over to your place once you get home from work. Of course, if circumstances allowed, Elias wanted to make Aiden stay in the Winters Estate for a few days. However, he knew Amanda would certainly not agree to it. Thus, he decided to take things slow.

Amanda shot him a disgruntled glare as she warned, “Elias, I’m warning you. Do not drill strange ideas into Baby’s mind these few days. Otherwise, I won’t spare you from my wrath!” I wouldn’t have agreed to let Elias look after Aiden if I wasn’t swamped with cases recently.

“What do you mean by strange ideas?” Elias raised his eyebrows slightly.

Amanda harrumphed and elaborated, “Do not feed Baby’s ego, and do not spoil him. On top of that, do not talk about those strange things such as getting a marriage certificate with him.

Elias’ smile intensified as he listened to Amanda while Ins gaze constantly followed the little guy in the car. “Okay, got it,” he agreed with a laid-back voice.

Then, Elias got into the car, closed the door, started the engine, and drove off slowly.

On the other hand, Amanda stood in place as she watched Elias’ car leave her sight. Her heart ached dully, and she involuntarily breathed out a sigh. “Why do I feel that Baby is growing more and more apart from me? I shouldn’t have let Elias learn of Baby’s existence. Yet, this is something that’s beyond my control” Just like that night-everything was so coincidental that it looked as if it was God’s arrangement.

“Stop overthinking things. You were the one who raised Aiden, so I’m sure you’ll forever be his favorite parent,” Selina comforted her.

Later that day, Amanda was busy with her work in the law firm and even met several clients in between for the whole day.

Night fell in the blink of an eye. By the time Amanda had the mind to glance at the time, she noticed that it was just in time for her to clock off. Since I’m done with everything, I might as well head straight to the Winters Estate and pick up Baby. Amanda couldn’t help being jealous at the thought of letting Aiden spend a second longer with Elias.

Just as she finished packing her stuff, picked up her bag, and was about to leave the office, Simon unexpectedly was just about to knock on the door.

“Hey, all done with your work?”

“Yeah. I have just finished and am now getting ready to get off work, Amanda replied.

Simon smiled. “Just in time to follow me to have dinner with my parents, then. They have made a reservation tonight. Plus, I’m done with my work too.”

“Huh? Tonight? But I am unprepared. Plus, I don’t even have a decent dress to change into. Amanda glanced at her formal wear. Can this attire even be passed off as an appropriate dress to meet his parents?

“It’s okay. My parents aren’t overly fastidious about these things. They understand the nature of our work. Plus, it’s just a simple dinner.”

Amanda was slightly conflicted. Honestly, her heart wasn’t entirely set on the idea of meeting Simon’s parents. She didn’t want to go but…..

“Okay… Then, I will call Baby and tell him I will be home late.” I should check in with that little brat in case he throws tantrums at Elias’ place.

“Sure.” To be honest, Simon didn’t want to stop Elias from taking this opportunity to bond with Aiden. I don’t mind Elias fighting for Aiden’s custody. In fact, it would be best if Elias won. After all, Aiden is his

biological son. Not to mention, Amanda and I will have our own children once we get married in the future. Still, I can’t possibly let Amanda know I have such thoughts. Because if she does find out, she will definitely hesitate to marry me.

At the same time, in the Winters Estate, Elias was taking Aiden to check out the cars in his garage. The little guy was so thrilled that he ran around the garage like a wild horse. Elias couldn’t get hold of him at

all.

“Wow! Mr. Winters! Your garage is so cool! There are so many cars here. Will I have cars like these too when I grow up?”

Well, one couldn’t blame Aiden for getting an adrenaline rush upon setting his sights on so many sports cars at once. After all, Elias’ garage was literally every man’s dream. Even a three-year-old toddler was no exception.

“Of course. All these cars will be yours in the future.” Elias leaned against the front hood of one of the sports cars. He felt an inexplicable sense of contentment as he watched the little guy’s figure running around in the garage. This is probably what fatherhood feels like.

Suddenly, his phone started vibrating. Elias glanced at the screen and saw that it was Amanda who was calling. Is she really this worried about me looking after Aiden? Please check at N/ôvel(D)rama.Org.

He answered the call. “What’s wrong? Are you doubtful of my capability to take care of Aiden?”

Amanda’s voice sounded from the phone, “Of course, I am. You have no experience in looking after a child. Do you know when to feed him? Do you know what’s the time to take him to the bathroom? Do you

know what time he goes to bed?”

Elias furrowed his brows slightly in the face of those sharp questions. I seriously have no idea about all of those! So, he coughed slightly to hide his embarrassment and added, “Do tell, then. I’m all ears.

“Forget it. You won’t understand even after I told you about it. Just leave it to the nanny. She will know what to do. Alright. Pass the phone to Baby. I want to say a few words to him.”

Elias let out a snort and then began to call out to the little monster that couldn’t stop running around, “Aiden, come here! Your mommy is asking for you.”

Aiden immediately stopped running around the instant he heard the word ‘Mommy. Then, he dashed toward Elias and snatched his phone away.

“Mommy! There are so many cars in Mr. Winters’ garage! They are all so cool! I’m having a lot of fun!” He eagerly shared what he saw with Amanda the instant he had a firm grip on Elias’ phone.

As for Elias, he leaned on the car hood and watched as the little guy chatted with Amanda on the phone. After approximately a few minutes, Aiden handed him the phone and said, “Here you go, Mr. Winters.”

Elias took the phone and realized that the call had ended. What? Amanda hung up just like that?

“What did your mommy tell you?” Elias inquired.

Aiden was touching the rearview mirror of a sports car when he answered absent-mindedly. “Mommy asked me to behave myself and said that she will come home late because she is going to have dinner with Uncle Simon’s father…”

“What?!” Elias instantly blew a fuse. F*ck!! How dare you, manda! Asking me to look after Aiden while you and Simon are going to meet Simon’s parents!?

Aiden was startled by Elias’ wrath. His voice turned meek as he repeated, “Mommy said she’s going to have dinner with Uncle Simon’s father. So, she will come home late.”

Only then did Elias realize that he might have scared Aiden. Therefore, he composed himself and bent down on one knee, asking, “Are you hungry? Let’s go have our dinner, okay?”

“Okay! Can we come back to your garage and play after dinner?”

“Sure,” Elias promised. Why is this kid so obsessed with cars? He’s definitely my son.
