On the other side…
When Clarence opened the door, only Channing was watching the little boy. Amanda was nowhere to
be found.
He glanced at the stroller and whispered, "Is he asleep?"
Channing nodded, "He just fell asleep a while ago."
Clarence said, "When Amanda comes back, you have to go back to school."
Channing replied, "I see."
Obviously Channing didn't take his words to his heart. He fixed his eyes on the little boy who was
sleeping soundly.
After a while, he asked, "When are you going to tell my sister?"
"You will know when it’s the right time."
Channing frowned, seeming to want to say something, but right at this moment, Amanda came back
home and opened the door.
Amanda nodded at Clarence, "Mr. Conrad."
She then nodded slightly to Channing to greet him.
Clarence stood up. When he prepared to leave, Amanda suddenly stopped him.
He turned and motioned her to continue.
Amanda hesitated for a long time before speaking, "Mr. Conrad, when will Ms. Anderson come back?"
"This afternoon. She will arrive at six o'clock at the latest." After a pause, Clarence added, "Do you
have any matter?"
Amanda waved her hand quickly, "No, no, it’s just a casual question. I'm afraid that no one will take
care of the child as sometimes I have to go out to buy vegetables and meat for meals. It’s a bit
inconvenient..."
Clarence said, "If you need anything, call them to send it over."
In fact, Amanda was very nervous when she asked the question just now. Because Clarence had told
her a long time ago not to go up if it was unnecessary and that if she needed anything at home, she
could ask his men to send the things over.
At the beginning, Amanda worked according to his instructions and she seldom went out. But… until
she met Logan, she would find an excuse to go out frequently. She went out three days a time before,
but now once a day.
Seeing that Clarence didn’t scold at her, Amanda finally heaved a sigh of relief, “Okay.”
Clarence looked towards Channing, “Let’s go.”
After going downstairs, Channing asked, "Where did you find this person? Is she reliable? You let her
take care of the child alone, will there be any..."
Clarence asked indifferently, "Alone?"
Without waiting for Channing to reply, he glanced around and said, "There are my men inside and
outside here, but you didn't see them. She is only responsible for taking care of that little brat, and
other things will be handled by my men outside. "
Channing, “…”
Little brat?
How could he comment his own son as a little brat?
Clarence glanced at the time and said impatiently, "Hurry up and get in the car. I'll take you to school. I
have things to deal with."
Channing said, "You don't need to send me. I have something to deal with too, so I won't go to school."
After saying these words, Channing turned around and left.
Clarence directly got into the car and said with no emotion in his tone, "I asked you to check what
Amanda is doing recently before. Is there any progress?"
Nathan replied, "Amanda...is probably in love. Our men followed her and saw her walking hand in hand
with a man for several times. She dated with that man every time when she went out.”
Clarence's men have reported to him a long time ago that Amanda often went out recently.
But Amanda was the person he picked, and there would be absolutely no problem with her.
Hearing this, Clarence hummed, "Find another suitable baby-sitter."
Nathan replied, "I've been looking for it, but there are some uncertain factors more or less, and I am
afraid that Mrs. Conrad will suddenly..."
"I will let them meet again before Amanda leaves and tell Stella that they are going to immigrate to the
other country."
Nathan couldn't help but sigh in his heart. Mr. Conrad's trick is really awesome. And for a mother, this
was so cruel.
Nathan didn't know whether if Stella would forgive Clarence again after knowing the truth.
…
At the upstairs…
When Clarence and Channing left, Amanda quickly took out her mobile phone and walked to the
bedroom to make a phone call, "Hey, I should be able to come out tonight, but I'm not sure yet. I'll send
you a message later."
On the other side of the phone, Logan said, "We haven't seen each other for almost a week, Amanda,
or may you quit your job? I can support your life."
Amanda scolded him in whisper, "What are you talking about? My employer helped me before. I don't
work here for money. But I heard from them last time that I can leave when this matter is solved. It will
be a short period, half a year at most.”
Logan said again, "But I miss you so much. How about this? You can take the baby to the park and we
will meet there."
Amanda refused without a second thought, "No, this..."
"Amada, children can't always stay at home, and occasionally they have to go out to get some sun. You
see, the weather is so good today. It's okay to walk out, right? What's more, children just need to get
more sun to replenish calcium."
She would take the little boy out frequently in the past, but it was accompanied by Dolores. As long as
Dolores was present, she just needed to follow beside them.
Amanda had never taken the child out by herself.
She hesitated for a while, then said, "Well then, but I have to ask my employer."
"Okay, remember to send me a message if he agrees."
They then ended the call. Amanda didn't dare to ask Clarence directly. Instead, she called his
subordinate who had been guarding outside of the house. This person was sent by Clarence, and he
was always in charge of their affairs.
Hearing that she wanted to take the child out to sunbathe, Maxwell didn't think too much of it. Today’s
sun was really good. So he agreed to it without a second thought.
Getting his approval, Amanda felt quite happy in her heart. She put down her phone and went to
change her clothes. After preparing the little boy's milk powder, hot water and diapers, she pushed the
stroller out.
But just after taking several steps, she heard the footsteps from behind. She immediately knew that
Maxwell was following her.
Every time when they took the little boy out, Maxwell would follow them from a distance to ensure their
safety. Amanda had been accustomed to it.
However, when Maxwell didn’t pay attention to her, Amanda took the advantage and sent Logan a
message, telling him not to come to find her and that she would find an opportunity to meet him later.
The park was very big, and there were parents who brought their children out to play everywhere.
Amanda found a bench under the shade of the tree and then little boy out of the stroller and played with
him.
After a while, Amanda's phone vibrated for several times. She took out her phone to take a glance,
slowly put the little baby back into the stroller and then sent a message to Maxwell, telling him that she
wanted to go to the toilet and asking him to take care of the baby for her.
Maxwell quickly walked over from behind the bush, “You can go now.”
Amanda said, “Thank you, I'll be back soon."
When she ran to the corner, Amanda saw Logan walking towards her. She hurriedly grabbed his arm
and kept down her voice to the lowest, “Did I tell you to stand there and wait for me? Why did you come
over?”
Logan took a glance at the place that she stayed just now from afar and narrowed his eyes. He then
withdrew his lines of sights and put his arm around her shoulders, “I want to see you as soon as
possible.”
