The Lawyer’s Romance in Law novel Chapter 161

Chapter 161 Are All Men So Fickle?

Amanda sat at her dressing table after her shower and did her skincare routine before climbing into bed for sleep. However, she wasn't sleepy at all, and her mind was filled with images of Elias in a conversation with the stunning woman who had a sexy figure.

Maybe he had changed his target. After all, she had already rejected him so thoroughly. Are all men so fickle? she wondered. No, I think only Elias is so fickle because he dumped me just like that back then.

She fell asleep while she was brooding over this and had a very long dream, where she dreamed that Elias was having his wedding.

Never did she expect that she would attend his wedding, an event more luxurious and grander than words could describe. In the dream, she stood in the wedding venue and saw Elias in a black wedding suit. He was standing in front of the pastor as he waited for his bride to walk to him.

The smile on his face was filled with love, and the bride was a woman she had never met. Although she couldn't make out her looks, she could tell that the bride was graceful and so gorgeous that she made heads turn. The elegant woman was dressed in a white wedding gown as she approached Elias step by step.

The pastor started conducting the wedding and asked for their vows. When Elias answered, 'I do', Amanda suddenly shouted, "I object!"

Then, she woke up from her dream in shock, springing upright and gasping for air. After she surveyed the room in front of her eyes, it dawned on her that she was dreaming earlier.

Tiny beads of sweat had broken out on her forehead, and she released a long sigh. She ran her hand through her hair and was about to return to sleep when she caught Aiden looking at her next to the bed with a milk bottle in his hands.

"Did you have a nightmare, Mommy?"

Nightmare? Is it a nightmare for me if Elias gets married? Isn't that what I've always wanted? That way, he'll stop pestering me, which he already did. She smiled at him. "No. Why did you wake up so early? Where's Miss Selina?"

"She's preparing breakfast now," he answered. "You're late today, Mommy. You woke up later than me!"

She instantly rummaged for her phone and checked the time. She couldn't help but widen her eyes in shock when she saw that it was already past 8.00AM. Usually, her biological clock would wake her up around 7.00AM, but what was wrong with her today? Not only did she have a weird dream, she even woke up late!

Her eyes widened in surprise as she shoved the sheets away from her person. "I'm late… Oh, God! I'm late! Miss Selina will be dropping you off at the kindergarten today because I'm running late."

Then, she hastily dashed into the bathroom to wash up so she could go to the office as soon as possible. There were a few meetings scheduled for today and Simon would be leading them. If she didn't arrive on time, he would let her off without any punishment and that would cause tongues to wag again.

Aiden watched as she rushed to get ready and said, "Mommy, my teacher said that we're going camping with our parents this weekend… Are you going alone? May I ask Mr. Winters to join us?"

Suddenly, her head poked out of the bathroom. "Why would you like to invite him?" In the past, it was always Simon who would come into his mind, but somehow, Elias was the only one he spoke about recently.

"Uhm… That's because Mr. Winters is better, and he even promised to bring me to Universal Studios. So, I would like to take him camping, too." Sure enough, only a three-year-old could come up with such childish reasoning.

She thought it over and answered, "I'll go with you. Mr. Winters is busy with work, and we shouldn't keep bothering him."

As a result, Aiden sulked and pouted his tiny lips. "Okay… It's fine if you're the only one going with me, but my teacher said that we'll have to start a fire for cooking during the camping. Have you been camping before, Mommy?"
