The Lawyer’s Romance in Law novel Chapter 153

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 blanket 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't latch 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 I 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, accompanied by a tall and handsome 'bodyguard'—Elias—from behind. They looked like a family of three coming to the movies, causing many to cast envious glances 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 the lady 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're coming to the movies together? So, Simon professed his faithful love for me while maintaining such a relationship 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.
