Chapter 387
Chapter 387 Your Son Is Still Mad at You
When Amanda saw her son’s reaction, she secretly chuckled in amusement. Oh, I can’t believe my son
has quite a temper.
“Look at our son. It seems that he doesn’t want to talk to me.” Elias helplessly gazed at Amanda,
comining to his wife in an adorable tone.
In the meantime, Yacob couldn’t help but have goosebumps running all over his skin when he saw that.
What’s with Mr. Winters? Why does he sound like a kid? Am I seeing things? Or is he out of his mind?
While Yacob’s eyes were filled with doubts, Elias gave him a cold re and said, “Step aside if you
can’t stand it.”
“Ahem… I’m used to it, Mr. Winters.” Yacob smiled.
Amandaughed in amusement when she saw the funny interaction between Elias and Yacob, finding
them interesting. In the meantime, Aiden made a loud grunt when he realized he had been neglected.
Elias looked at his own son in his arms, smiling lovingly, “You have my attention, but is this a reminder
for me to coax you?”
“Hmph! You broke your promise. You’re not a good father.” Aiden gave in to his temper and spoke,
although he was initially reluctant to talk to Elias at all,
“But I brought you a present. Would you take a look at it?” Elias knitted his eyebrows.
“No! I don’t want it!” Aiden responded with an adamant attitude.
Amanda then poked her son’s face and asked, “Give your father a chance to apologize. I thought we
talked about this at home.”
“I don’t see any present at all. I don’t think he prepared any either.” In fact, Aiden had been paying
attention to anything that might seem like a present from the moment Elias showed up, only to fail to
notice anything noteworthy.
Amanda then turned her attention to Elias and asked, “Are you trying to lie to my son? Where is his
present?”
Elias then turned around and gazed at his assistant. “Where is my present? I thought I told you to hold
it for me.”
“Oh, it’s right here. I almost forgot about it.” Elias’ assistant smiled awkwardly and quickly brought the
present to Elias.
Although Amanda couldn’t see clearly what that present was, she noticed her son’s desperate reaction
as he hurried to check out his present and eximed in excitement. “What’s that?”
“I don’t know. All I know is that kids love it.” Elias reacted with a chuckle.
Soon, the smile on Amanda’s face faded away when she received a phone call from Symeon. Not him
again. She immediately hung up the call and looked at Elias, as well as Yacob. “Let’s head back to the
estate. 1 have something I’d like to tell you all about.” Elias and Yacob exchanged gazes in
puzzlement, but they didn’t ask Amanda anything because they reckoned they would find out more
soon enough.
Upon arrival at Winters Estate, Aiden was taken by the butler elsewhere so that he could y by
himself. After all, it had been a while since thest time he was there. On the other hand, the three
adults made their way to theke, where they decided to have their discussion held.
“Now, what is it that you want to tell us?” Elias sat down on the bench and waited for Amanda to talk.
Amanda deliberated for a moment, wondering where she should start telling Elias and Yacob the story.
At the same time, she was worried that Elias would get angry after hearing her story, fearing he would
sumb to his temper and do something reckless. She then looked at Yacob and said, “You should sit
down as well. I’m thinking about how I should start telling the story.”
“Me? As Mr. Winters’ subordinate, I think it’s better for me to stand because I doubt I deserve to sit side
by side with him.”
“I said sit down. I can’t think with you on your feet. What I’m going to tell you both is noughing matter,
and I need you to restrain Elias if he gets too mad because I don’t want him to do anything silly.”
Amanda sounded frustrated.
Yacob was seen with a confused look on his face when he saw Amanda acting so mysteriously.
Although he could tell that Amanda had been hiding something inside of her for the past few days, it
seemed to him that whatever she was going to tell them was serious.
Meanwhile, Elias was already seen with a darkened face, thinking he should have known that
something. had would happen to him away from home. However, Amanda chose to keep him in the
dark until he returned. “Now, just sit down and keep quiet.”
Yacob obediently sat down beside Elias, whereupon the two men fixed their eyes upon Amanda and
waited for her to talk.
“Now, tell us what happened.” Elias looked at Amanda.
“Promise me that you won’t get mad. The reason I’m bringing this matter up is that I want all of us to
think of a solution together, so you need to stay calm. Okay?” Amanda shuddered at the thought of her
imagination in which Elias angrily barged into Sacred Heart Vi to murder Symeon.
Meanwhile, Elias was beginning to feel more annoyed as Amanda behaved indecisively. “So, are you
going to tell us or not?” He was overwhelmed by his impatience.
“Now, promise me that you’ll stay calm, okay? Please.” Amanda still appeared hesitant because she
had a strong feeling that Elias would sumb to his emotions and temper.
“Alright, I promise you. Now, talk, Elias answered with a darkened look.
Amanda looked at Yacob, who was sitting beside Elias. “Don’t forget to restrain him.”
Yacob responded by giving Amanda a firm look, as if he was telling her to stop wasting time and tell
them what happened.
Amanda then cleared her throat and took a few seconds to organize the story in her mind. After that,
she went on to speak in a euphemistic manner. “Here is what it is. I believe you guys know the
Lawrence Family from Esmos, right?”
“Yeah, what’s wrong?” Elias knitted his eyebrows. Although he had met Symeon, the new heir of the
Lawrence Family, a few times, they were not close to each other.
At the same time, Yacob also held his breath, looking forward to what Amanda would say next.
After a brief hesitation, Amanda eventually decided to speak her mind in order to prevent any unwanted
misunderstanding. “Um. The mysterious and famous heir hase to Cludan for me…”
“And?” Elias couldn’t wait to hear the truth, but Amanda still seemed hesitant and indecisive as she
revealed what had happened.
Amandacked the courage to look her husband in the eye but eventually decided to go ahead and tell
the truth. “This heir went through the record in the hospital where I gave birth to Aiden in Esmos four
years ago, insisting he was his son as he wanted to take him away with him. He then tried to convince
me that their biological rtionship was real by presenting a DNA paternity test report, which was done
in Esmos. That’s all.”
After finishing thest few words, Amanda didn’t notice any response from the two men, even thinking
she might have spoken so fast that she left them confused. However, the moment she looked up, she
immediately saw Elias’ darkened face, knowing he was going to lose his cool anytime.
“What the f*ck!” The man swore just as Yacob quickly seized his arm.
“Mr. Winters, Miss Bailey said you have to stay calm.”
“Come on! Could you really stay calm if you were in my ce? I gave you a task to protect them, but
you didn’t seem to know about that at all, did you?!” Elias was so angry that he was tempted to murder
Symeon.
It was then that Yacob recalled the man he met when he picked Aiden up at school. That man Aiden
and I ran into that day. Is he the Lawrence Family’s heir? He is the biracial guy you’re talking about,
isn’t he?” Yacob asked, looking at Amanda.

Amanda nodded, shuddering at the thought of their encounter that day. If Yacob hadn’t been around,
my baby would have been taken, wouldn’t he?
