Cold Attitude

“With my understanding of Elias, he would never give up so easily. Are you sure he isn’t up to any

tricks?”

Amanda jolted slightly before she immediately furrowed her brow. “He has already made things very

clear to me. All he wants is for Aiden to know that he’s his father and nothing else. His request is still

reasonable.”

“Is it that simple? Would someone like Elias who never had to bow down to anyone settle for such a

simple request?” Simon pressed, still unable to believe her words.

Amanda circled to the back of her desk and began to arrange her documents while replying, “Maybe he

just decided that he doesn’t want me anymore. I’m not gentle and obedient, and I’m always pissing him

off by going against him, so what would he get out of remarrying me? A hard time?”

Simon didn’t reply, and the two remained silent for a long moment as Amanda continued to tidy her

documents behind her desk for a court case later that afternoon.

However, when he continued to stand in place, she couldn’t help but raise her head. “Don’t you have

work to do now?”

“Amanda, what about you and me? What about us?” Simon asked, his eyes searing yet determined

So, we’ve still come back to this topic.

Amanda rubbed her pen between her fingers, as if deep in thought.

A moment later, she slowly replied, “Let’s just go back to being friends. Neither of us will be able to win.

your parents over, and you can’t get past your ex-girlfriend either. To be honest, I don’t think there’s any

point in a loveless marriage. You clearly still can’t let go of Lunabelle, but you’re still insisting on

marrying me. Are you planning to make me watch as you continue to keep in contact with Lunabelle?”

Instantly, Simon was rendered speechless. He had indeed lost most of his feelings for Lunabelle, but if

she had any requests to ask of him, he knew that he would most likely extend a helping hand to her.

However, he never thought that Amanda would be bothered by this fact.

“Does it bother you? Weren’t you fine with it? Lunabelle and I are just friends now. Besides, she’s been

a little depressed lately, so I’ve been taking care of her just as a friend…”

Before he could finish, Amanda had lost her patience and interrupted, “Then you can continue taking

care of her. I just think that it’s better for us to remain as friends.”

“Amanda…”

Simon was still about to explain, but she didn’t want to hear another word. “Enough, Simon. It’s

working. hours, so you should go back to work. There’s been a lot of cases at the firm lately; don’t

waste your

Upon seeing her cold and determined attitude, he could only give up and turned to leave the office.

As soon as she heard the sound of the door closing, Amanda inexplicably felt a weight lifting off her

shoulders. Moreover, she was even a little relieved that Simon’s parents disagreed with their marriage,

or she would not know what to do if she had actually married him.

In fact, she got along perfectly fine with Simon as colleagues and friends, but only the idea of being his

wife sent goosebumps all over her skin. Perhaps it was because neither of them held any feelings for

the

other.

Soon, night fell. As Selina’s divorce had been fully settled, she was set to return that night to continue

taking care of Aiden, freeing Amanda of much of her burden.

After dialing Elias’ number, the call quickly went through, and his low voice sounded from the other end.

“Yes?”

Ever since they had talked things through the previous night, he had become much colder, and she

found it hard to get used to all of a sudden.

Amanda coughed before saying, “Selina’s coming back today, so you can go back to your work instead

of picking Aiden up from school from now on. If you’re free, we can arrange a time for you to meet him.”

If this were any other day in the past, Elias would’ve definitely lost his temper. However, he only replied.

coolly, “All right, I got it. Give me a call if you need anything.”

“Okay. Then… I’ll leave you to it.”

With that, Amanda hung up the phone, thinking that his overnight switch in personality was truly difficult

for her to get used to.

At that thought, she raised her wrist to check the time. As she had a banquet to attend that night, she

had to change her clothes, so she decided to take a trip back home.

When Amanda arrived at Northern No. 1, Selina was making dinner for Aiden while he was busy

putting at puzzle together.

Upon hearing the door opening. Selina emerged from the kitchen. “You’re back, Amanda. I’ll make

some more food for dinner later.”

“It’s fine. I’m going to a banquet later. Just make enough for you and Aiden,” she hurriedly said.

Selina smiled. “All right. Aiden was wailing about how hungry he is.”

Amanda walked toward Aiden and caressed his head. “Why aren’t you greeting Mommy? Where are

your manners?”

Normally, when she returned home, he would always greet her in his adorable voice.

However, Aiden’s attention was completely devoted to his puzzle, and he even avoided her touch

impatiently. “Mommy, I have to finish this. Uncle Elias said that he’ll take me to Universal Studios once

I’m done.”

Amanda’s smile froze at the corners of her lips. No wonder he was so serious-Elias had given him a

mission.

She couldn’t help but mutter to herself, “This b*stard is getting my son’s hopes up again. I don’t even

know if he actually has the time to go.”

However, Selina said with a smile, “I think that his way of teaching is not bad. Not only is he training

Aiden’s concentration, he also gave him a promise. Besides, he’ll definitely do as he says”

“Why do you believe in him that much? Do you really think he’d do what he

says?”

After all, she had known Elias much longer than Selina.

Selina let out an awkward chuckle. “I just feel like he would. He personally came over to give this

puzzle to Aiden this afternoon. He’s quite caring.”

Amanda froze. “He’s been here?”

“Yeah. He came over after I picked Aiden up and gave him this puzzle, but he only played with him for

a while before he left. He seemed quite busy,” Selina reported.

I never knew Elias was here… Amanda fell silent at that thought. Upon seeing Aiden’s serious

expression, she smiled lightly before heading to her room to change.

Around 8.00PM, Amanda changed into a black sleeveless dress that presented all of her curves

perfectly, painting her in a cheeky but seductive light.

Soon, she arrived at the banquet venue. These events had only one purpose, and that was to get to

know influential figures in the business industry as well as build connections with them in order to

establish an opportunity to work with them in the future.

Simon was present as well, but she hadn’t expected him to show up with Lunabelle by his side.

At the same time, Simon noticed her, and he walked over to greet her. “Hey, Amanda.”

With a glass of red wine in her hand, Amanda sent him a small smile. “Boss, you’re late, you know.”

Next to him, Lunabelle piped up. “Sorry about that, I was the one who dragged Simon behind. I tend to

change quite slowly, so it took a while.”

Amanda only smiled without replying. Either way, she was not planning on advancing her relationship

with Simon, and she was not curious about how the two ended up arriving together.

However, Simon couldn’t help but explain, “Lunabelle was feeling a little down, and I was worried about

her being alone at home, so I took her here for a distraction.”
