Chapter 427 The Plan Failed 

“Mommy Mommy Aiden, who was suffering from a fever, ked calling out to Amanda He sounded like a wounded animal, which broke Amanda’s heart 

But she couldnt do anything at the moment she needed to stick to Yacob’s plan to make a successful escape, so she had to bear it all 

“Raby, Mommy is here. I’m sorry Just hold on a little longer, okay? Yacob will rescue us 

Holding the child in her arms, she sneaked into Villa No 4 with beads of sweat formed on her forehead. 

It was completely dark in the villa. Everything remained untouched. Housecleaning was just an excuse. Symeon was aware that something was wrong from the beginning 

Amanda carried Aiden to her bedroom upstairs and found that the room still looked the same as before she moved out. Even the bedsheet remained unchanged. 

Standing in the middle of the room, she suddenly felt a chill running down her spine as if she had willingly walked into a traj 

Could it be that Symeon already found out about our plan? If so, Yacob coming here tonight is no different from walking right into an ambush! 

She turned around to leave. Suddenly, the lights in the room turned on and the harsh light caught her off guard. 

She involuntarily closed her eyes. When she opened them again, she was met by the sight of a man standing outside the room. 

Amanda couldn’t help but take a step back. Her eyes widened as if she had seen a ghost. 

It was none other than Symeon. 

He hadn’t left! Everything was part of his plan! 

“You…” She was speechless. 

Symeon smiled at the sight of her shocked expression. “What about me? Curious to know why I didn’t go to the airport and showed up here instead?” 

*So, you set us up.” Despair rose in Amanda’s heart as she held Aiden in her arms tightly. 

Symeon walked into the room. That’s not true. When I checked the surveillance footage, I

found somebody entering the villa. I also heard your screams, but both you and Aiden denied it. Therefore, I became more cautious by taking preventive measures. I didn’t expect you to fall for it so easily. So, are you planning to escape tonight? After learning that I’m leaving for a business trip, you deliberately chose to escape around this time.” 

Amanda didn’t answer him. Instead, she only held Aiden tighter. What should I do next? Her mind was in a tangle. 

She wanted to tell Yacob to not come here tonight, but she didn’t even have a phone to call 

him. 

I can’t just sit around and watch him fall into the trap. 

Her silence drew a chuckle out of Symeon. “You’re not denying it? Then, it seems like I got that right. I must admit I underestimated you. You’re more cunning than you look. I thought you would stay here obediently. Never did I expect you to have such a trick up your sleeve. Otherwise, I thought you would try hard to please me, so I would keep you by my side. Like that. you could at least see your child more frequently for the rest of your life. However, you chose the most foolish approach, which is to run away with the child.” 

At that, he took a step forward. 

Amanda took a few steps back with Aiden in her arms. “Aiden is not your son!” 

Even though she had told him the same thing countless times, he only sneered. “You keep denying it. If it was before, I might still have doubts. But you had admitted it. Now you want. to escape, so you deny that the child is mine again. What makes you think you can convince me this time?” 

“No matter what your belief is, Aiden is not your son. The woman named Melissa is the one behind everything. She threatened to kill my son if I didn’t come here with you. This is it. The truth.” 

He probably won’t believe me. Amanda had such a feeling, but she still wanted to tell him the 

truth. 

Symeon listened to her in silence. His expression betrayed nothing. At last, he asked, “Is that all? Anything else? If not, can you hand him over to me? Can’t you see he is suffering from a fever? Is this how you, his mother, behave? Neglecting your child’s health only to carry out. an escape plan that will never work? What, you think you can escape?” 

Symeon took another step forward, trying to snatch the child from her. 

Amanda held Aiden tightly and took several steps back. “Don’t come any closer! And I don’t need you to remind me that Aiden has a fever!” 

“Mark my words. Even if I’m not around today, you don’t stand a chance of escaping!”

syncon spoke with authority. He spoke as though he feared nothing. More accurately, he 

was at ease. 

At the same moment, a figure showed up outside the window. The person knocked on the window. Even though the light in the room was on, they didn’t receive any response. 

Just when Amanda was about to tell the person to not come inside, Symeon rushed over to her and covered her mouth, restricting her from making any sound. 

Yacob was shocked by the sight when he sneaked into the room. He never expected Symeon to hang around. 

Amanda bit the hand that covered her mouth hard, causing Symeon to recoil in pain. 

Then, she shouted, “Run! Don’t worry about me!” 

Yacob immediately did as told. He turned around and hopped over the window to escape. However, the commotion already attracted the attention of the bodyguards who patrolled the estate. 

Symeon walked over to the window and growled at the bodyguards waiting out there, “Get them! No one is going anywhere!” 

“Mommy… I’m so cold…” Aiden fell into a deep sleep after one last cry. Amanda looked down at him as she cried, “Wake up, Aiden! Don’t sleep!” 

Symeon sprinted over and snatched Aiden from her.
