I Only Believe You, Mommy
Amanda waited outside after driving to the movie theater where Selina and Aiden were. Supposedly,
the movie would end in about 15 minutes. Feeling a little thirsty, she decided to buy a bottle of drink
from the automatic vending machine nearby. She got out of the car, walked up to the automatic vending
machine, and paid for the drink with her cell phone, after which she waited for her drink to come out.
Just then, several young girls walked past her. First, they stared at her peculiarly; then they started
whispering among themselves. One of them asked, “Is that the wornan who disfigured Grace Murphy’s
face? She looks very much like the woman in the video.”
Her friend replied, “Yeah, she seems to be that woman. She looks just like the woman in that security
footage!”
Consequently, more and more people stopped to look on, and all of them were talking about Amanda
behind her back.
Amanda had just uncapped her drink and taken a sip from it when she noticed a large crowd gathered
behind her. These people were of all ages and both genders; one who had no clue what was going on
would think they were watching some actors in the middle of shooting a film. She looked back at these
people with a confused expression, feeling puzzled as she couldn’t make out what they were talking
about. Just when she wanted to walk away, a middle-aged woman suddenly stopped her, saying, “Hey,
are you the woman who disfigured Grace Murphy’s face? How could you be so cruel at such a young
age? Don’t you know how important the face of an actress is? Is it worth doing that for a man?”
Amanda changed color instantly. It’s really the age of information now. After the security footage got
uploaded to the internet, almost everyone in the country could watch it on their phone, and they could
even recognize me on the street! She didn’t say a word since it was pointless to say anything in such a
situation. She walked toward her car, wanting to leave as quickly as possible.
Much to her dismay, these people surrounded her completely, preventing her exit. One of them
shouted, “It’s her! She looks just like the woman in that security footage!”
Another yelled, “We must condemn this kind of people! This woman must be brought to justice, or else
there’ll be more and more of this kind of thing in the future!”
Just then, someone commented, “What a shameless woman who would do anything for the sake of a
man! What’s more, it’s rumored that she seems to be a lawyer herself.”
Another replied, “Doesn’t that mean she’s good at exploiting legal loopholes? All hell’s gonna break
loose if she gets away easily this time!”
Amanda felt her head was going to explode as she listened to their clamor. Perhaps I really shouldn’t
go out these days, I should hole up at home instead and wait until I find evidence to prove my
innocence. She had Elias to help her out back in the hospital, but now, there was no way the man
would show up, so she had only herself to depend on. Suddenly, she pointed in a direction and
shouted, “There’s the police!”
All at once, everyone’s eyes looked in the other direction. Seizing the opportunity, Amanda quickly
slipped out of the crowd, spraining her ankle as she walked in high heels. Despite the acute pain, she
ran toward her car.
Realizing what had happened, those people even ran after her while swearing angrily along the way.
One of them yelled, “Stop right there, you wicked and vicious mistress! Not only did you steal
someone’s boyfriend, you even disfigured her face! You’re an absolute disgrace to all women!”
Another chimed in, “That’s right! You should get condemned in public, you shameless mistress!”
Running up to her car, Amanda opened the car door just in time to see Selina come over while holding
Aiden’s hand. She shouted, “Get in now!”
Selina instantly understood what was going on. Picking up the boy, she quickly opened the car door
and got in the car.
Amanda started the car and swiftly drove out of this crowded shopping mall. Watching those people
gradually disappear in the rearview mirror, she finally breathed a sigh of relief.
The tension in the car slowly eased. Suddenly, Aiden clung to the back of her seat and asked in a
whisper, “Mommy, what is a mistress? Why did they call you a mistress?”
Amanda’s heart did a complete somersault. Baby heard what they said just now… She was lost for
words. For a while, she didn’t even know how to explain it to the boy.
Luckily, Selina smoothed things over by pulling the boy into her arms. “Aiden, will you be good and sit
tight? Your mom can’t get distracted while driving, or she’ll be fined by the traffic police.”
“Oh, okay…” Aiden obediently shut up and said nothing else.
For some reason, however, Amanda felt a wave of the blues. If she couldn’t find evidence to prove her
innocence, even Aiden might get affected in kindergarten. But how was she supposed to prove her
innocence? She wouldn’t be able to clear her name unless Grace also had security cameras installed
inside her home.
After they returned to the villa in Galaxy Bay, Selina went to make dinner, whereas Amanda stayed in
the living room with Aiden.
Aiden had been watching cartoons obediently. He didn’t make a fuss, nor did he ask again why those
people had called her a “mistress” just now.
Amanda stared at him for a long time before stroking his head. “Baby, if someone says bad things
about me in front of you, will you believe them?”
Aiden’s eyes were still glued to the cartoon, but he replied earnestly, “Of course not. I spend every
single day with you, and I know you better than anyone else.”
Once again, Amanda was moved by his reply. As expected of my own son! She swept him into her
arms and kissed his tender little face. “I’m gonna reward you for this. Well, you’ll get to eat a
lollipop tonight.”
Aiden pouted his lips, though. “Mommy. I’ve stopped liking lollipops ages ago
“Hmm? What do you like, then? I remember that you liked orange-flavored lollipops very much,” asked
Amanda. Am I not caring enough about my son lately? I don’t even know that his preferences have
changed. All of a sudden, she felt somewhat guilty.
Suddenly, Aiden turned to look at her and replied in a childlike voice, “I don’t like lollipops anymore
these days. Mommy, I want you to be happy.”
“Why?”
“Because I think you’ve been unhappy these days.” Aiden’s puppy-dog eyes had sincerity written all
over them, and only his mother was reflected in the eyes of this currently three-year-old boy.
Amanda was stunned. The world of adults was full of daily troubles, but the world of a three-year- old
kid only consisted of their parents, whose every move they observed every single day. She let out a
chuckle, saying, “I’m not unhappy. It’s just some problems at work, so don’t worry, okay?”
Aiden climbed up onto the couch, jumped into Amanda’s arms, and clung tightly to her. “You’re lying;
you’re not unhappy when you’re working. Mommy, is it really hard to find a daddy? If it is, then I don’t
want a daddy anymore. I just want you.”
Amanda replied, “What are you thinking about? Aren’t you tired of worrying so much as a little kid?
Your only duty is to have fun at kindergarten every day.” Sometimes, she really thought Aiden and Elias
had many similarities in their characters. Both of them were hot-tempered worrywarts with a great
sense of responsibility.
Aiden wrapped his fleshy little arms around her neck while whispering in her ear, “Mommy, I love you. I
won’t believe anyone if they say bad things about you. I only believe you, Mommy.”
Tsk, tsk… What a sweet little boy! That’s totally different from his jerk of a father. Elias is just an
insensitive dunce who doesn’t know how to please women, but Aiden, this little brat, is very sweet and
very good at making women happy.
