    Chapter 153 Don’t Make Me Do It


    Amanda really couldn’t stand this anymore. How can this jerk be so unforgiving? “You’re really


    something. Elias! You’re not even sparing the kid?”


    Elias leisurely ate his congee. “He’s part of the reason why I got a cold. Had he not been afraid of


    ghosts. and insisted that I sleep with him, I wouldn’t have had my nket snatched away, nor would I


    have caught a cold,” he argued, not forgetting to tickle Aiden’s nose with his finger. “What do you think,


    kiddo? Isn’t that right?”


    Aiden stared at him before nodding. “Yeah, it seems so


    Amanda was speechless. Oh, why are you so obedient to him, my dumb son? “Your fever has almost


    gone down, and you took fever medicine just now, so you’ll be fine in the afternoon. Don’ttch onto us!


    I’m taking Baby to the movies this afternoon. He’s been asking to see a movie for a long time,” she


    said.


    Taking a bite of garlic bread, Elias replied, “What should we do, then? I feel like my fever’s not going


    away today, so I need somebody to take care of me. How about this? I’ll go with you two to the movies.


    If I get really unwell, you can send me to the hospital anytime.”


    Aiden nodded vigorously. “Yeah, let’s go with us, Uncle Elias! ‘PAW Patrol’ is a fun movie to watch!”


    PAW Patrol? Elias frowned; he had hardly watched any children’s movies before. He had disliked


    children before having a son, nor had he felt any desire to tease other people’s kids when he saw


    them. Seems like L have to pay more attention to children’s preferences from now on.


    Amanda was lost for words. This jerk really has no sense of shame!


    In the afternoon, Amanda brought Aiden to the movie theater, apanied by a tall and handsome


    ‘bodyguard-Elias-from behind. They looked like a family of threeing to the movies, causing many


    to cast envious nces at them.


    After Amanda took the tickets, Aiden nagged her for popcorn and drinks, so she could only head to the


    counter to buy them. “Tell thedy what you’d like to drink,” she said while lifting him up.


    Aiden just wanted Coke. “Madam, I’d like Coke with lots of ice! Thank you so much, madam.”


    “Okay! What a good boy you are, little boy. The three of you are so good-looking,” said the movie


    theater attendant to Amanda with a smile while getting the Coke for Aiden.


    Feeling embarrassed, Amanda smiled without saying a word. The three of us, huh… She looked back


    at Elias, who was standing beside her. Indeed, if they hadn’t divorced, they would’ve been a family of


    three now. Many times she wondered what if they hadn’t divorced and if Elias had believed Aiden’s


    existence back then. Would the three of them be living a happy life as a family now?


    “Thank you.” Elias naturally took the popcorn and Coke when they were handed over. Seeing that the


    movie was about to start in five minutes, he turned to look at Amanda, saying, “Let me carry him


    instead. You take these.”


    Amanda didn’t refuse either, for she was really tired of carrying Aiden in her arms right now. This brat is


    really getting heavier, she thought.


    On the contrary, Elias effortlessly picked the boy up with one arm.


    Amanda followed behind them, but when they arrived at the ticket entrance, an awkward situation


    happened….


    Amanda couldn’t believe they would actually bump into Simon and Lunabelle here. They’reing to


    the movies together? So, Simon professed his faithful love for me while maintaining such a rtionship


    with Lunabelle? All of a sudden, she felt like she had been cheated. She thought she was very


    important to Simon, but in reality, he could never get over Lunabelle. At this instant, many thoughts


    crossed her mind until they were. jumbled together.


    Aiden, on the other hand, called out naturally, “Uncle Simon!”


    Simon was also surprised to see the three of them; he also never expected Amanda woulde to the


    movies with Elias in such harmony. “You two-” he began, but just when he wanted to speak, Lunabelle


    interrupted, “Simon, let’s go in. The movie’s about to start.”


    Amanda ignored Simon and merely greeted Lunabelle with a smile, saying, “It’s been a while.”


    “Uh-huh.” Lunabelle was apparently cold toward Amanda, perhaps because she was offended by the


    latter. meeting Simon’s parents with him earlier.


    Elias said nothing throughout, nor did he bother to speak. He only wanted to punch Simon at the sight


    of this guy. However, Aiden had gotten quite a fright when he did sost time, so he learned to keep


    silent. now After showing their tickets, he walked toward Hall No. 7 with the boy in his arms, and


    Amandà caught up with them.


    Simon couldn’t help but call out to her, “Amanda, Lunabelle has been showing signs of depression


    lately. so I came here with her to help her rx.”


    Amanda pondered for a moment, but she had no idea how to answer. All she could say was an


    impassive “Uh-huh,” before she turned toward Hall No. 7.


    Needless to say, Simon and Lunabelle weren’t here to see a children’s movie, so they went to Hall No.


    5.


    Lunabelle was very displeased with the man’s exnation, and she felt bitter deep down. “Simon, if


    you care that much about how Amanda feels, just go to her instead. I’m not important. I can watch the


    movie alone.”


    Simon replied, “Let’s go. The movie is about to start. At this moment, he was angry deep down. He


    didn’t understand why Amanda had always been inseparable from Eliastely. She had agreed to


    marry him, and yet she was so iffy about it. Is she giving up just because of what my parents said to


    her? Does she really have no feelings for me? For the past four years that they had spent abroad,


    Amanda had been incredibly dependent on him, and Aiden had made many attempts to bring them


    together. He had thought several times that he and Amanda would end up being together, but he never


    thought things would turn out like this after they returned to their home country.


    A movie generallysted about two hours. After the movie ended, Amanda walked out of Hall No. 7,


    praying deep down that they wouldn’t bump into Simon and Lunabelle again.


    Unfortunately, things didn’t go as she wished. The movie Simon and Lunabelle watched seemed to


    have ended as well, and they came out at just the same time.


    Aiden had fallen asleep when the movie ended, so Elias had no choice but to carry the boy out of Hall


    No. 7. Running into Simon and Lunabelle again, he also chose to ignore them.


    Lunabelle was the first to speak. “What a coincidence. Your movie has ended as well?”


    Elias couldn’t answer that, so only Amanda nodded, saying, “Yeah. Well, we gotta go. The kid’s


    asleep.”


    Seeing how the three of them looked like such a happy family, Simon finally snapped. He stepped


    forward. and grabbed Amanda’s wrist, asking, “Amanda, are we strangers from now on? Don’t you


    forget that. just said yes to my marriage proposal! Are you giving up just because of a few harsh words


    from my parents? Am I so unimportant to you?”

    Amanda was at a momentary loss for,how to deal with Simon’s sudden verbal attack.

    On the other hand, Elias strode over and wrenched Simon’s hand away. He warned through clenched.


    teeth in a grim voice, “I don’t want to get into a fight in front of my kid, so don’t make me do it. Get lost!”


    With that, he took Amanda by the hand toward the elevator lobby.


    Just then, Aiden let out a moan, seemingly roused from sleep by the altercation.


    Elias patted him on the back, soothing him back to sleep.
