The Lawyer’s Romance in Law novel Chapter 230

Chapter 230 Stephanie, Are You Wishing to Die?

Children were always curious.

Aiden couldn't resist the temptation and discreetly moved a few steps forward. "Who are you? How do you know my parents? Why do I not know you?"

"I am… Well, why don't you take a guess? Your father and I are friends."

Stephanie struggled for a while in her heart. For such a young child of about three years old, would telling him about his parents' divorce trigger him?

Should I tell him that I'm Elias' new wife? Will the child accept it?

At the sight of Aiden's cute eyes, Stephanie's heart suddenly softened. Matters between adults should never concern children.

However, when she thought of Elias' indifference and heartlessness, she was furious. If it had not been for Elias, Crispin could have escaped instead of being locked up by her own father again.

"Are you Daddy's colleague?" The naive Aiden asked after thinking for a long time.

It was always because Amanda had introduced Simon as her colleague.

Stephanie smiled because the child knew the word 'colleague', so she couldn't help but pat his little head. "I'm not your father's colleague. I'm—"

Before she could even finish speaking, a man's sullen voice suddenly rang in the air from behind. "Stephanie Allegra, what are you doing?! Stay away from my son!"

Stephanie's body froze as her expression fell. This… This is Elias' voice.

Aiden looked behind her with a bright smile and rushed over. "Daddy!"

She rose to her full height and turned to see Aiden happily pouncing on Elias' legs.

Elias effortlessly carried the child in one arm and revealed his gentle, doting side while addressing the child. It was a side that Stephanie had never seen before.

As it turns out, Elias has a gentle side…

Stephanie liked Crispin because of his gentle nature. She disliked Elias' cold, heartless behavior.

However, it seemed that it was not just indifference. She was just not the subject of Elias' enthusiasm and care.

"Daddy, let's go home and ask Mommy to eat," Aiden said as he latched onto the man's neck.

"Okay. Go and play with Mr. Yacob. I'll quickly join you guys. Let me have a word with that lady, alright?" Elias instructed while maintaining a doting expression toward his son.

Aiden glanced at Stephanie, who was standing there, before saying, "Daddy, are you well-acquainted with her? Don't you like Mommy the best? Why do you still know other ladies?"

Elias couldn't help but laugh and lightly flicked his son's nose. "Sneaky child, have you been spying on your father? I don't know her that well. We're just colleagues."

"But she says that she knows you. She even knows Mommy's name! She asked me to guess the relationship that you have with her."

Children never lied; they merely told the truth.

When Elias heard this, his expression suddenly changed before he promptly smiled at his son. "Go and play with Mr. Yacob. I'll come over in a short while."
