Chapter 596 The Couple Resorted to Legal Actions


    The boy who was standing in front of the counter raised his head, looked at the source of the sound


    and saw the girl who was at the other side of the ss cab. Amanda then stood up. The boy took a


    good look at Amanda and seemed to remember where he had seen her before in an instant.


    When his mother brought him to find his father, they made a stop at the service area and he saw her in


    the supermarket of the service area.


    “Do you still remember me?” Amanda asked with a smile on her face. She didn’t know why she


    remembered his face so well.


    She had a fairplexion and wore a red dress that had a white doll cor. Her hair was tied in a


    simple ponytail. When she smiled, her clear eyes were beautiful and looked like crescent moons.


    The boy didn’t say anything, but he remembered her appearance.


    “Amy.” Dolores walked up to her.


    The boy looked at Dolores and noticed the woman who was behind Dolores. Lowering her head, she


    was choosing bayberries with Carol. There was a flicker of emotion in his eyes, but it disappeared right


    away.


    He walked away with his father.


    Amanda stood on the same spot and blinked her eyes. She stared at the boy who was leaving the area


    and thought that he was odd. ‘Does he even have basic manners?’


    ‘I greeted him. Why didn’t he respond to me?’


    “You are going to eat sweet food again.” Dolores looked at the donuts on the tray that was carried by


    her daughter and frowned, “Eating excessive sweet food can harm your teeth.”


    Amanda pouted, “I like to eat this. Since we don’te to the supermarket every day, I will buy more


    donuts and put them in the refrigerator. I will eat them slowly.”


    Dolores looked at her daughter helplessly. She became more and more eloquent. She had a way with


    words.


    “Mummy, buy it for me.” Amanda tugged at Dolores’s sleeve and charmed Dolores, “Can you please


    buy it for me?”


    Dolores couldn’t do anything with her daughter, “You can only eat one donut every day. You cannot eat


    more than that.”


    “Two donuts,” Amanda bargained with her.


    “Then, I will not buy them.”


    Dolores pretended to turn around and leave. Amanda held her back and acknowledged her words


    unwillingly, “Okay. I will eat just one donut. I will go and have the pastry chef wrap them up.”


    After she had finished speaking, she trotted across the pastry section. She feared that Dolores would


    change her mind.


    Dolores smiled helplessly.


    Andrew walked up to her and held her hand, “Mummy, don’t you think that Amanda has changed?”


    Dolores lowered her head, looked at her son and nodded approvingly, “She has changed. But why are


    you so emotional?”


    Andrew replied, “I am not emotional. I just want to tell you that your daughter was very clingy because


    she just had a father and was deprived of love. Now, she knows that she has a father who will not run


    away from her. She has received a lot of love, so she is not so clingy anymore.”


    Dolores didn’t know what to say about her twins. In the past, her daughter had been cute. Amanda


    acted like her son at that moment.


    However, what her son had said seemed to make sense.


    She clearly noticed the change in her daughter. She was lively, cheerful and talkative.


    But it would be better for girls to be quieter. She was still very young so she might be quieter when she


    grew up.


    “Is there anything you want?” Dolores asked her son. Although he was very mature, her son was still a


    child. She was afraid that he would feel that he had received unfair treatment if she bought things for


    his sibling and didn’t buy things for him.


    “The things that I want are not on this floor,” Andrew said.


    “Then, how about going to the third floor?” Dolores asked knowingly. She knew that her son wanted to


    buy toys instead of food. Toys were sold on the third floor.


    Andrew knew that Dolores was teasing him and gave augh, “Mummy is naughty.”


    After they had finished their shopping on that floor, they went to the third floor.


    Andrew bought a chess set. Ever since he had lost the game in White City, he was unwilling to y


    chess for a long time although he was enlightened by Jayden. He figured it out at that moment.


    He should not be afraid of difficulties. He should not back away from the obstacles. If he could


    ovee his obstacles, he would experience real growth.


    “When Daddy is free, the two of us should y chess,” Andrew said excitedly.


    Dolores stroked the hair on her son’s head. She asked him whether he wanted anything else, and he


    shook his head. They then went downstairs to pay for their purchases.


    The supermarket was exceptionally crowded that day. There was a long queue at the checkout counter.


    Coral said, “All of you should go and find a ce to drink some beverages. I will pay for the purchases


    here.”


    Amanda was also unwilling to wait there without doing anything. She pulled Dolores’s hand and said,


    “Mummy, we should go there.”


    She pointed at the dessert shop in the supermarket.


    Dolores knew her daughter’s intentions. She was also quite hungry, so she brought the two children to


    the shop.


    While pushing the shopping cart, Coral asked the new servant to follow them. She was worried about


    the pregnant woman and the two children.

    A variety of beverages was sold at the dessert shop, including juice, milk and coffee. Amanda ordered


    her favorite dessert and thoughtfully ordered juice for the chauffeur and the new servant.


    They had gone out in the morning, and it was almost noon. Dolores ordered some desserts and asked


    them to sit down and eat some desserts. The chauffeur was used to her amiability and sat down


    without saying anything. The new servant was quite nervous and declined, “I am not hungry.”


    Dolores said with a smile on her face, “All of us live together. Since you are helping me to take care of


    the children, you are not an outsider. Don’t act like an outsider. Just sit down.”


    The new servant thought that it would be inappropriate to decline Dolores’s request again, so she sat


    down. Although she had only been here for a few days, she could see that the family was very kind.


    Although they were very wealthy, thedy of the house was very kind. As for the little girl, she


    remembered where she had seen the little girl before as soon as she met the little girl.


    ‘Maybe it is because she met me briefly. She doesn’t remember me. Moreover, my current appearance


    is different from my appearance before.’


    “At that time, my skin color was darker. It is normal that the little child doesn’t remember me.’


    She looked at Amanda and thought that Amanda was cute in every way.


    In her mind, she wondered how Amanda had grown to be so beautiful.


    Soon, all the desserts that Dolores ordered were brought to their table.


    “Auntie Lucy, you should try this.” Amanda scooped a spoonful of cream pudding and ced the spoon


    on the te that was in front of the new servant.


    The new servant was around thirty years old. Although she was older than Dolores, she was totally not


    of the same generation as Coral, so Dolores told the children to address her as “Auntie”.


    Dolores addressed her as “Big Sister”. Since she had been taking care of Dolores’s closest family


    members, Dolores treated her most sincerely.


    The shop was very quiet. They sat on the sofafortably as the sofa was very soft. It was perfect to


    take a rest there after a tiring shopping trip.


    The two children ate their desserts slowly. The chauffeur and Lucy ate their desserts quickly, so they


    went outside and helped Coral to put their purchases in the car. They then told Coral to go in, take a


    rest and drink a beverage.


    After they had finished eating, they left the supermarket and returned home.


    As they had eaten some desserts, they were not hungry although it was almost noon. Dolores asked


    Coral to prepare lunchter and went upstairs to get some rest. She wanted to lie down after walking


    for a long time.


    Coral and Lucy kept the fruits that were bought just now in the refrigerator and took out some fruits.


    After washing the fruits, they gave them to the two children.


    “Missus takes good care of herself. She looks so young and is so kind,” Lucy said.


    Coral gave a chuckle, “She is originally young.”


    ‘She got married when she was eighteen years old. How can she not be young?’


    Lucy thought that Dolores should be at least thirty years old because Dolores’s children were already


    so big. If she got married and had children in her twenties, she should be around thirty years old.


    She looked like a university student.


    Ding-dong, the doorbell rang. Lucy said, “I will go and open the door.”


    Since they had sorted out everything, Coral gently hit her legs and wanted to get some rest in her


    room. She said, “Okay. You can do that.”


    Lucy walked up to the door and opened the door. A delivery man was standing in front of the door.


    The delivery man asked, “Is there ady that is named Lucy Poole here?”


    Lucy looked at the delivery man and said, “I am Lucy Poole. You are…”


    “I have a parcel for you. Please sign for it.” The delivery man took out a small paper box.


    The name of the recipient was indeed her name.


    “Who sent this to me?” she asked.


    “I am only responsible for sending this parcel. I am not sure about the sender’s identity. Please leave


    your signature here.” The delivery man then handed her the delivery confirmation slip.


    She took the slip and left her signature on it. She then took the small paper box.


    There is no one in the living room. All of them were resting in their rooms. She sat on the sofa and


    opened the box. In the box, there was a stationery box that was filled with money. There were ten-


    dor notes, one-hundred-dor notes and fifty-dor notes. The stationery box was full of money.


    There was a card under the stationery box.


    She opened the card. It was a note written by her son, ‘Mummy, I have missed you. The reason why I


    have chosen Daddy is because I am scared that you cannot afford to raise me. Since I have followed


    Daddy, it will be easier for you. Mummy, when I grow up, I will earn a lot of money and bring you over to


    my house so that you can live with me.’


    Tears started to run down her face. She and her husband came from the countryside. To make a living,


    her husband went out and worked. At the same time, she took care of the elderly and children in the


    house. Last year, her parents-inw passed away and she brought her son to reunite with her


    husband. But her husband was having an affair with a young woman.


    Her husband who had a sessful career no longer fancied her. She was not young anymore and


    didn’t know how to dress up.


    To fight for the custody of her son, the couple resorted to legal actions and went to court. Her husband


    had financial stability, so she was disadvantaged financially. However, in order to keep her son by her


    side, she still needed to fight for the custody of her son.


    At the discretion of the judge, he took pity on the mother and sought the child’s opinion. He asked the


    child who he wanted to live with.


    Her son replied, “I want to live with Daddy.”


    She was crestfallen at that moment.


    Little did she know…
