Chapter 464 It’s Been a While


    Elias remained alert and slowly spoke. “It’s hard to say if he is my son. Are you trying to deceive me


    into rescuing the son of you and your lover?”


    He didn’t want to doubt Amanda, but the paternity test inade it difficult for him to let his guard down. He


    had to investigate thoroughly before concluding whether or not the child was his.


    Amanda’s heart sank at his words. She couldn’t bear to stay for another second. Immediately, she


    stood up, picked up her bag, and turned to leave the office; tears streamed down her face as she


    walked away. If she stayed any longer, she was afraid she wouldn’t be able to resist pping this man


    across the face.


    Elias sat on the couch this time, watching as the woman mmed the door and stormed out of the


    office. He had to investigate everything before he could determine the truth quickly. Otherwise, he


    couldn’t distinguish whether Amanda’s words were true or false.


    After getting up and returning to his desk, he called his assistant on the inte. Within a minute, the


    assistant entered the office, looking flustered. “Mr. Winters, you called for me. Is there something


    wrong? He was busy at his workstation and was taken aback when his boss suddenly called him into


    the office.


    “How is the investigation I asked you to do? What is my current marital status? Am I married or


    divorced?” Elias asked.


    The assistant answered, “Oh, I just received a call from the relevant department. They said you’re


    currently married, and if your marriage certificate is missing, it can be reissued-”


    So, what Amanda said about remarrying was true? Elias cut the assistant short. “What else? Did I have


    a child with Amanda? What happened before my car ident? Why did I have the ident in the first


    ce?”


    The assistant looked confused by the questions. “Um… I haven’t found out about those things yet. And


    almost no one knew about your car ident, not even me, until a few days ago. I don’t know when you


    had the ident or when you woke up. As for your marriage to Miss Bailey, only a few people know


    about it, and even fewer people know about the child.”

    Elias’ face darkened, and he waved his hand, signaling for the assistant to leave.


    The assistant had no choice but to leave the office and close the door.


    Elias felt that something must have happened before his car ident-something intense. The ident


    must be rted to the paternity test, but it wasn’t just because of the test.


    Since the ident, whenever he used his brain for too long, he would get a headache. And now, his


    headache was starting again.


    He opened the drawer and took out some painkillers, swallowing two pills.


    Amanda wandered aimlessly on the street, not knowing where to go.


    At this moment, Aiden made an international long-distance call to her. She sat on a nearby bench and


    answered the phone. Aiden’s excited voice came through the phone, saying, “Mommy Mommy. I saw


    Mr. Yacob! Mr. Yacob said he will y with me every day”


    She immediately perked up. Yacob managed to sneak in there so quickly? He didn’t even call me to let


    her brow


    Maybe it was inconvenient for him to call from Lawrence Estate. “Aiden, did you really see Mr. Yacob?”


    she asked


    “Yeah. Mr. Yacob came to see me in my room. He said we’ll be able to go home soon, and he will y


    with me every day.” Aiden replied.


    Amanda couldn’t help but feel nervous. Yacob had sneaked into Lawrence Estate now. If he were


    found out by Simon again, Simon would definitely kill him this time. “Aiden, listen to me. You mustn’t tell


    anyone about Mr. Yacob. Do you understand?”


    “But Mommy, can’t I tell Mr. Lawrence too?” Aiden asked innocently.


    Amanda’s heart jumped up into her throat. She immediately stopped him, saying, “Exactly! Especially


    Mr. Lawrence. You absolutely mustn’t tell him where Mr. Yacob is.”


    “Why? I don’t think Mr. Lawrence is a bad person. Even though he’s stern, he hasn’t bullied me,”


    replied Aiden. After these days of spending time together, he hade to believe that Symeon wasn’t


    a bad person despite his foul temper.


    Amanda’s heart skipped a beat. At this rate, Aiden might end up getting along peacefully with that


    Lawrence guy! She patiently exined to her son, “It’s because… they have a grudge against each


    other, so you can’t say anything. You got it? Be good and stay there. Mr. Yacob will y with you every


    day, but anyone, or Mr. Yacob won’t be able to stay there anymore.”


    “Okay, Mommy, I got it.”


    At that moment, Symeon’s voice rang on the other end as he called Aiden toe over to eat. Then,


    Amanda heard the man’s voice through the phone. “Why do you always call him during his mealtime?


    Don’t you know it would affect his appetite?”


    “It was Aiden who called me. How would I know when he’s eating?” She couldn’t speak nicely to this


    man. Had it not been for this lunatic, she wouldn’t have ended up in this situation, and Elias wouldn’t


    have had the car ident and lost his memory.


    “You’d better cut down on the number of times you talk to him. That way, he can slowly forget about


    you,” Symeon said coldly. He didn’t want to see Aiden constantly talking to Amanda over the phone in


    front of him.


    Amanda suppressed her anger and said, “He needs time to adjust, no? If you suddenly cut off his


    emotional support like this, what kind of trauma will it leave on his young mind? Will you take


    responsibility for healing him if he ends up with mental scars? It will be toote for you toe to me


    then.”


    There was silence on the other end of the line for a few seconds. After that, he hung up.


    She looked at the disconnected phone and felt an inexplicable worry. At this rate, will Symeon discover


    the truth? What if Elias couldn’t recover his memory… She wanted to go to the hospital and ask the


    doctor about it Just as she stood up and was about to leave, she bumped into a man’s chest.


    She looked up and was surprised to see Simon. “Simon why are you here? I haven’t seen you in a


    while… I felt like they hadn’t seen each other in a century, and this person was almost disappearing


    from her memory


    Seeing her surprised expression, Simon replied with a chuckle, “It’s been a long time indeed, but you


    don’t have to be so astonished. We’re notplete strangers


    Speechless. Amanda forced a smile and lowered her head. She felt that Simon was the person she


    owed the most to.


    Simon saw her awkward expression and deliberately changed the subject. “By the way, how have you


    beentely? Is Elias treating you and your son well? I believe he’ll cherish the time he spends with you


    and your son this time. After all the effort he put into bringing Amanda and her child back, he would


    definitely take extra care of them to make up for the lost time.
