Chapter 507 Sleeping in the Master Bedroom Together
Elias had lost interest in listening to the family’s troubles. He held Amanda’s waist and said, “Let’s go. I don’t want to stay here for another second.”
Amanda had initially wanted to take revenge on Melissa, but now she realized that reality was even crueler than her revenge plans.
Melissa had already received the punishment she deserved, and it was even more severe than what Amanda had planned for her.
Amanda nodded and hugged Aiden tightly. The three of them walked out together.
Simon felt a splitting headache. How did things become so complicated? He watched Amanda, Elias, and Aiden walk away and felt a tightness in his chest. That scene was an eyesore for him.
Tobias could no longer bear it and ordered the bodyguards, “Get these two women out of here. I never want to see them again in my life.”
“I’m not leaving. I want Dulcie. Give Dulcie back to me!” Mary cried. She couldn’t live without her granddaughter.
However, the bodyguards ignored her and forcibly pulled her and Melissa away. Like a puppet, Melissa allowed the bodyguards to take her away.
After everyone had left, the living room fell silent.
Only Tobias and Simon remained.
Tobias looked at Simon in front of him and said in a heavy tone, “They have proposed to break off the engagement. Although Elizabeth is trying her best to stop it, I don’t think the outcome will change. I have some doubts about your ability due to this matter. I don’t know. if you can truly be the heir.”
Simon remained silent, tightly pursing his lips. His handsome face was tense.
“The subsidiary in Cludan has encountered some problems recently. I want to send. you there on a business trip for six months to develop the market and to avoid the limelight. Additionally, the matter of your illegitimate daughter must not be leaked. Let this farce end here. You can raise the little girl as an adopted child, but you must never admit that she is your biological daughter. Otherwise, your position will be in jeopardy, and the entire family will not accept it.”
Simon still didn’t speak, but he indicated his agreement.

Amanda held Aiden and sat in the car.
Aiden looked at Elias and suddenly felt that Elias seemed unfamiliar. Although it had also been a long time since he saw Amanda, he didn’t have this feeling toward his mother.
Amanda could tell that Aiden was afraid of Elias.
She gave Elias a look, as if to say, Talk to your son. Why are you staying silent? You’re not a
stranger.
Elias reached out his large hand and awkwardly patted his son’s head. “Let’s go home, okay?”
Amanda couldn’t help but laugh. This man was a typical guy. He loved the kid but didn’t know how to express it.
“Dad… why are you acting so strangely? Don’t you recognize me?” Aiden asked curiously.
Elias froze, realizing that even a child could sense his amnesia. He smiled. “How could I not recognize you? I would recognize you even if you turned to ashes.”
Amanda couldn’t help but roll her eyes. “Elias, what are you saying? Ashes, my lord. Can’t you say something positive?”
Elias was speechless. He didn’t know what to say or how he used to communicate with Aiden before his amnesia.
Elias looked up at Amanda again. “How did I communicate with this little guy before?”
“Well…” Amanda thought about Elias’ previous interactions with Aiden, which could be described as tricking Aiden. She smiled. “You used your wealth and power to win over my
son.”
Elias raised an eyebrow. “Was I really that straightforward? And he fell for it?”
“Yes, my son is easily swayed. You bought him some gifts and took him out to play, and he called you ‘Dad’ very soon after that.”
Elias’ face darkened slightly as he looked at Aiden, who was sitting beside him, and then said seriously, “Aiden Bailey, I’m warning you. From now on, besides me, you can’t call anyone else Dad even if they buy you gifts and take you out to play, understand?”
Aiden looked at his dad with a dumbfounded expression Dad, are you silly? Of course, I won’t call anyone Dad There can only be one dad, right? I’m not a child. I understand”
What che could he be if not a child? A little trickster?

As the father and son bantered, Amanda couldn’t stop smiling. She didn’t know how happy she looked right now.
Finally, the three of them were together again.
Yacob drove them to the Winters Family’s villa in New Montana.
Elias and Amanda planned to stay there and spend time with their child for a few days. before returning home. Since they were already here, Elias might as well cultivate his relationship with Aiden. After all, Elias couldn’t remember anything from his past.
Soon, night fell.
Amanda and Elias took turns telling stories to Aiden to put him to sleep. They spent a full two hours before finally getting him to doze off.
The two of them quietly got up and left the room, closing the door behind them.
Amanda stretched and yawned. “This little guy’s energy never runs out. From now on, it’s your turn to play with him. I can’t handle it anymore. I would have fallen asleep if he stayed. awake any longer just now.”
Upon saying that, Amanda walked toward the guest room.
Elias grabbed her wrist. “Where are you going?”
“To bed. I’m so tired. I want to take a hot bath and then get a good night’s sleep. I didn’t sleep well on the plane.”
Elias looked deep into her eyes. “We’re husband and wife, so shouldn’t we sleep in the same. room? Let’s sleep in the master bedroom together.”
Amanda’s ears turned pink instantly as she looked into Elias’ eyes. She saw a hint of mischief
in them.
