Amanda sat beside Elias, feeling no sense of happiness like she used to. When she recalled the
woman he brought home that morning, she could not help but gag. The words he said remained ringing
in her ears… ‘She’s pregnant, so let’s get a divorce.’ Screw this. I’ve lost my appetite. Howard piped
up, “Elias, you guys have been registered for a year. When are you going to give Amanda a ceremony?
It’s unfair to her.” She stayed quiet while Elias half-heartedly replied, “Not now.” Once they were
divorced, a wedding ceremony would be redundant. Howard’s smile instantly disappeared as he
snorted. “Not now? How long are you going to wait? When will I get a great-grandchild?” This time,
Amanda looked up and smiled before Elias could say anything. “Grandpa, your great-grandchild will be
coming soon.” Elias tensed up and looked at the woman beside him with a cold, vicious gaze as if
warning her, You’re dead if you dare to spout any nonsense! However, she ignored him. Isn’t that
woman pregnant? Grandpa will soon have a great-grandchild that way. As for mine, I’m aborting it
tomorrow. Ha. How ironic. “Really? You guys have nned it? That’s great! I’ll get someone to create a
name for my great-grandbaby.” Howard was grinning from ear to ear. After dinner, Amanda and Elias
left the manor together, and he stopped to mock her once they were outside. “Don’t tell me you’re going
to get yourself pregnant so you can manipte Grandpa into maintaining our marriage.” She calmly
replied, “I’m not.” “Then, why did you say those words to him?” He narrowed his eyes. “Aren’t you going
to tell him your lover is pregnant?” That rendered Elias speechless as he thought Amanda would try
something, but it turned out he was overthinking things. After sneering, he retorted, “Of course, I’m
going to tell Grandpa. I’ll get mywyer to bring the divorce papers to you tomorrow. I can give you any
compensation you want, including the vi you’re currently living in.” “I don’t want anything from you.
Please get everything done tomorrow morning. I have other things to attend to.” Though she seemed
calm on the surface, her heart was bleeding because she had to visit the hospital for her abortion once
she signed the papers. She could not help but wonder how her life became like this. “Whatever,” he
replied tly and left. … The next morning, Elias sent hiswyer to the vi to finalize his divorce with
Amanda. Thewyer handed her a divorce agreement to sign. “Mrs. Winters, just sign your name here.
Also, these properties, vehicles, and bank cards arepensations from Mr. Winters. He said you may
do whatever you want with them.” Without skimming them, Amanda readily signed her name on thest
page. “Please tell Elias I won’t ept these things. They’re too dirty to my liking.” Stunned, thewyer
nodded. After seeing thewyer out the door, she packed her bags and took onest look at the vi
she had lived in for a year. Her traces were everywhere, and she was a little reluctant to leave.
Perhaps, she would never return here ever again. While she stood in the living room, she recalled the
scene of Elias and his lover and felt her stomach churn. Elias Winters, our rtionship ends here.
Goodbye forever. … Amanda arrived at the hospital as scheduled and prepared for her abortion
procedure. “Amanda Bailey, it’s your turn. Come inside.” Hearing that, she was startled and jumped to
her feet. She touched her t abdomen and felt guilty because she was about to end a tiny life. While
lying on the cold operation table, she heard the surgeon coldly instruct her, “Get on the table, take off
your pants, and spread your legs…” She stiffly followed the doctor’s orders. Unsure whether she was
hallucinating, Amanda suddenly felt her abdomen move. But I’m only seven weeks in, so how can there
be fetal movement? Nah. I’m hallucinating. When she shut her eyes, the scenes of her past with Elias
uncontrobly appeared, filling her heart with hatred. Suddenly, she heard a cute voice calling her,
“Mommy!” Her eyes widened frantically, and she looked at the blinding surgical lights as a thought
emerged. Then, she shot up from the table and ran out of the operating theater… … Four yearster,
at Imperia Airport. “Are you out? There’s not much time left. We still have to meet with our client to
discuss the details. This time, it’s a huge client, so we’re gonna make a lot.” “Okay. I understand. Come
and get me.” Amanda donned a pair of ck sunsses that concealed most of her face, and she was
pushing a suitcase with a yawning child on top. The child was her son, Aiden Bailey. He was three
years old and resembled a certain sc*mbag the older he grew. “Mommy, I’m tired…” “Aiden, I have to
meet a clientter, so I can’t send you home and have to bring you with me. Be good, and I’ll get you
something delicious after,” she cajoled the child like she was coaxing a baby. However, the child rolled
his eyes at her. “Come on, Mommy. I’m already three. I can understand if you speak properly. What’s
more, I have always been good.” Speechless, Amanda sometimes felt that not only did her son look
like that sc*mbag, but he also inherited the sc*mbag’s personality. “Amanda! Over here!” Helean
Connor, who was responsible for picking her up, waved at them. The smilingdy walked toward him
with her luggage, which he then took and loaded into the car. “Let’s head over and talk about the case
with our client. They seemed quite anxious.” “Let’s go.” Half an hourter, the car slowly stopped at the
entrance of a skyscraper. “Aiden, you must stay close, or else I’ll get angry and punish you!” Amanda
exhorted the excitedly jumping child beside her. “Okay, okay. You nag too much, Mommy.” The two
then entered the building. However, since it had been four years, she had no idea that the skyscraper
before her was the new location for Winters Enterprise. In other words, Elias was inside this skyscraper
at that moment. Helean went straight to the reception table and was greeted by a smiling receptionist.
“Wee. Do you have a reservation?” “We do. It’s under Helean Connor from Justice & Associates,”
he informed her. It was only then that Amanda noticed the stylish words behind the receptionist—
Winters Enterprise! She instantly paled, and her eyes filled with surprise as she turned to Helean. “So,
our new client is Winters Enterprise?” “Yep.” He was clueless as to how serious the matter was about
to get. At that point, she had an urge to wheel around and leave.
