Chapter 126


    Chapter 126 You’re Amazing, Amanda Bailey


    W-What’s going on? Mommy? Didn’t she say that she had aborted the baby! Then, whose child is this?


    Elias stared at the boy’s face for a few seconds. His body turned rigid and time seemed to have


    stopped moving. This brut looks exactly like a mini version of me!


    Aiden hugged Amanda’s legs tighter when he caught sight of the shock in Elias eyes and said in his


    baby voice, “I need to pee. Mommy. I can’t hold it anymore. I can’t possibly wait in the car forever! I


    really can’t hold it in anymore.”


    Right now, no words could describe how awkward Amanda felt, but the first thing she had to do was to


    take care of her son’s situation. “Do you need to pee? Go in quickly and look for Miss Selina. Don’t pee


    in your pants.”


    She shoved him gently toward the steps, and he nced at her. “What are you ying with this man


    here? Aren’t youing in together? Who’s this man? He looks so familiar-

    “Oh, for goodness’ sake, child. Aren’t you in a rush for the toilet? Run along now. If you wet your pants,


    I’ll tell your teacher about it tomorrow.” When she saw the stunned and dazed look on Elias face, all


    she wanted to do was get Aiden into the house as quickly as possible. s, her son was clearly the


    human form of the question mark with his endless nattering. My god, this is so embarrassing…


    “Okay!” Aiden took a look at Elias on the ground and dashed up the steps leading into the house.


    Elias sprang to his feet, his eyes never leaving the child’s retreating figure. However, he staggered


    because his legs were numb from kneeling too long. Amanda instinctively reached out and helped him


    steady himself.


    He raised his head and met her guilty eyes. “Amanda, you’d better f*cking exin to me what’s going


    on! Don’t tell me that’s Simon’s child because he looks exactly like me!”


    Regardless, she had no intention of allowing Elias into her home as she jerked her head to the side


    and stopped him from barging into the house. “Don’t go in. You’ll scare him.”


    “Then, tell me what’s going on! Whose child is he?” Although he already knew the answer, he still


    wanted to hear it from her lips.


    “Well… It’s just as you saw,” she mumbled. “I didn’t abort the baby back then and gave birth to him.”


    He was so furious that he red at her so fiercely that he was about to swallow her whole with his eyes


    alone. A mix of emotions swelled in his chest-excitement, surprise, and most of all, rage.


    This woman actually fooled him for such a long time, and after her return to the country, she even lied


    to him that she had aborted the baby, making him so sad that he set up a tombstone for his unborn


    child. But now, it hit him that Amanda was a heartless woman, and it was all he could do to stop himself


    from crushing her to pieces.


    You’re amazing. Amanda Bailey. How can you lie to me for such a long time, telling me that you’ve


    aborted the baby? Are you worried that I’ll fight for his custody from you! You made me look like an idiot


    setting up an empty tombstone for my child! How did you manage to visit your child’s tombstone with


    me and still feel nothing?” He had the urge to choke her to death, thinking How can this woman be so


    heartless?


    At the mention of that empty tombstone, Amanda felt her temper re as she snarled, “The checks of


    you to bring that up! Get that tombstone removed right away! You’re just cursing my son with it, aren’t


    you? I told you not to set up the tombstone, but you refused to listen to me. Whom are you ming


    now? Just the thought that the tombstone was still standing in the cemetery made her uneasy because


    her beloved son was hale and hearty.


    Meanwhile, he simply chuckled and shouted in frustration, “me? Should I be the one to me,


    then? Would I have set up that tombstone if you had told me that the child is alive? You’d bettere


    clean right this instant. How long do you n to keep me in the dark if I haven’t seen him with my own


    two eyes today?”


    Tve never wanted you to find out about hi-


    Then, he cut her off mid-sentence as he couldn’t suppress his ire any longer, “Amanda! Do you n to


    let my son acknowledge Simon as his father? So, the child you asked me to look for during those days


    isn’t his child but mine, actually. You still refused to tell me that he’s mine even when you begged me to


    save the child! How many times have I missed meeting my child? How could you be so evil?”


    Evil? Did he just call me evil? she thought andughed out loud; herughter was anything but mirthful.


    “I’m the evil one, huh? You’ve definitely lost all your conscience by using me of such ims, Elias


    Winters! You’re the one who didn’t want this baby back then, and I did n to abort him, but I regretted


    it right before the surgery and kept him instead. Furthermore, I went to the checkups, gave birth, and


    raised him alone for the past four years. How is he rted to you? What gives you the right to take him


    from me so easily?”


    She was filled with nothing but grievances whenever the topic of how she waded through life as a


    single mother for the past four years. There was no way she could ept it if she returned Aiden to the


    Winters Family just like that when she had gone through all those trials and tribtions just to raise her


    son alone.


    Suddenly, Elias calmed down and seemed a little heartbroken to see how mad and aggrieved she was.


    Time passed by, and the rain gradually lightened, which rendered the umbre useless.


    “Thank you for keeping this child,” he said solemnly.


    When he saw that brat earlier, he thought that he was dreaming. How could a little boy look just like


    me?This is how my child will look if I have one, he thought. All of a sudden, he thought that he was


    hallucinating until he saw that brat hugging Amanda’s legs and calling her ‘Mommy. His heart was


    galloping so fast in his chest that he could hardly breathe.


    The affectionate expression he was wearing made her soft-hearted again. I’ve been soft-hearted


    toward him too many times in the past. Not anymore! she warned herself. “Stop apologizing because


    you won’t be able to change my mind. I won’t ever allow you to have custody of my child, so you


    can stop dreaming about & Also, I’ve already agreed to Simon’s propod and my baby is very fond of


    him and wants Simon to be his father. So, ngh-


    She wanted him to give uppletely, but halfway through, he suddenly pulled her into his arms


    forcefully and took her lips into his own, stopping her from finishing her sentence


    As she was not expecting that he would kiss her forcibly, she widened her eyes in shock and stared at


    his gorgeous face, which was just inches away from hers, pping his chest with her palms “Eliss


    Winters, let me go! What are you doing? Get off me!”


    Unfortunately, he merely deepened the kiss, and it got more passionate over time, as though he


    wanted to make her part of him. He eventually released her when they were both breathless and


    panting from the kiss. Then, he rested his forehead against hers, uttering each word seriously. “You


    should be the one who should stop dreaming. Amanda. I won’t let another man have my woman and


    my child. You know how I am”


    Tve already given him my word and there’s no other choice now. Everything is toote!” Although her


    cheeks were flushed and she was still gasping for air after the kiss, she tried to shove him away. s,


    her strength was nothing in the face of his as he merely tightened his arms around her.


    “It’s useless. You can forget about marrying Simon as long as I’m alive. Try me if you don’t believe me.”


    He held the back of her head with his palm, forcing her to stare into his resolute yet domineering eyes.
