The Lawyer’s Romance in Law novel Chapter 136

Chapter 136 Causing Trouble With His Son 

In the dining hall, Elias asked the kitchen staff to prepare a children’s meal for tonight, so all the food served tonight catered to most children’s tastes. 

“Wow… It’s so yummy! Mr. Winters, your chef is so amazing.” Aiden’s mouth was full as he spoke. He was elated, for the food tasted different from those in restaurants. 

When Elias sat at the side to watch the little guy cat, he couldn’t help but smile. “Help yourself.” 

“Mr. Winters, your house is so big. Can you show me around your house tonight? 

Aiden thought that Elias’ home just had a theme park, but he never thought that it was a whole manor. It was so huge… 

“Sure, but I don’t have time tonight. Maybe tomorrow. I’ll be picking you up from school these days, anyway.” 

Elias had something more important to attend that evening. If Aiden hadn’t gotten hungry, Elias would’ve headed straight toward the restaurant Amanda and Simon were dining at. 

Aiden looked up, his mouth smeared with cream as he asked curiously, “Why can’t we do it tonight? Are you busy?” 

“Your mom called. She wants me to send you back as early as possible. She’s worried, so you should eat faster 

When Aiden finished his meal, Elias would stir up some trouble with him in tow. Elias would never allow Amanda to get married to Simon. 

Aiden frowned, confused. “But Mommy said over the phone that she’ll be going home late tonight because she’s having dinner with Uncle Simon. She told me to be good and listen to you-” 

“Really? She called me just now and said that she’s done and that she wants to see you as soon as possible.” The man lied to his son without batting an eye. 

Children were easily fooled. Aiden believed him and nodded obediently. “Oh. All right, then. I’ll come back to tour your house tomorrow, Mr. Winters.” 

“Good boy.” Elias couldn’t help but pat his son’s little head. 

Elias himself wasn’t as obedient when he was a child. He remembered his grandfather saying that he was extremely naughty in his childhood, and his antics would get out of hand if no one lectured him. 

As he was having a trip down memory lane, his phone’s vibration brought him back to reality. He wiped the corners of his mouth with a napkin, then took his phone and answered the call. 

Yacob’s voice sounded over the phone. “Mr. Winters, Miss Bailey is dining at Red House on South Street tonight.” 

“Red House?” Elias frowned. 

“Yes, the location they settled on was Red House. It’s quite the coincidence.” 

“All right, got it.” 

Then, Elias ended the call. 

Red House was a specialty restaurant that was also part of the Winterses’ property. Elias never thought that such coincidences could occur. Not many people knew about this, but Red House was his grandmother’s favorite restaurant when she was alive, so Elias purchased the restaurant later on. 

A wry smile crept onto the man’s lips. Meeting with a parent, huh? I guess I can cause the ruckus of the century tonight! 

Anyone who dared to snatch his wife from him deserved death! 

“Mr. Winters, I’m done!” Aiden picked up a small bowl of soup and downed every last drop. However, his tiny face was specked with bits of food. 

Elias looked at the small empty bowl, nodding in satisfaction. Amanda had taught the child well. 

“Good. Follow Mrs. Colette to the bathroom, wash your hands and face, and then I’ll take you to see Mommy.” 

“Okay!” 

At the side, Colette carried Aiden off the seat and then walked toward the bathroom. 

Just then, Elias’ phone rang again. This time, it was a call from Howard. 

Elias answered the call. “Grandpa—” 

The man had just greeted his grandfather when the old man shouted over the phone, “You brat! I heard you took the child home, is that right? You’re kidnapping children now? If you want a child so much, go and have one of your own!” 

Elias glanced coldly at Rylan, who was standing at the side. That blabbermouth must have reported it to Howard. 

Rylan lowered his head guiltily, not daring to look Elias in the 

eye. 

Elias said, “Grandpa, I only like my child.” 

“Then, why did you bring someone else’s child home?” 

“Rylan wasn’t telling the whole truth. Did he not tell you that this child looked a lot like me?” 

On the other end of the line, Howard was furious as he said, “What? What do you mean, he looks a lot like you? Do you have illegitimate children now? I’m telling you, I’m not acknowledging any child that didn’t come from Amanda!” 

Elias was a little exasperated, and he was tempted to laugh amid the anger. “The child’s mother is Amanda, and I’m the father. Do you understand now? I don’t have time to chat right now; I have to take care of the child” 

The other end of the line fell silent for a while. Then, Howard suddenly said in a calm voice, “Are you seriously out of your mind? Do you believe what you’re saying right now?” 

“If you don’t believe me, just come over tomorrow and take a look for yourself.” 

With that, Elias ended the call. He didn’t have time to waste on Howard, because the caretaker was already 

taking Aiden out of the bathroom. 

“I’m done, Mr. Winters.” 

“Let’s set out and find your mommy.” 

Forty minutes later, Elias’ car pulled up in the parking lot of Red House. 

He had just stepped through the main entrance with Aiden when the manager of the restaurant walked up to him. Yacob had already informed the restaurant of Elias’ arrival beforehand. 

“You’re here, Mr. Winters. I’ve been waiting for you.”
