Someone Took Aiden Away!
Amanda wanted to decline, but after some thought, she eventually agreed.
“All right, I’ll go see you at the law firm in the afternoon.
After ending the call, Amanda went to wash up in the bathroom. She changed her clothes, and then
finally.
walked out of her bedroom.
The breakfast Selina had made for her had gone cold, so Selina reheated it.
Amanda sat at the dining table, looking at the reheated breakfast as she said, “You don’t have to reheat
it for me. I’m not hungry, and I’ll be having lunch soon.”
At that moment, they were the only ones left in the house, so they could finally have a proper talk.
Selina sat down beside Amanda and asked, “Amanda, did you seriously give up on leaving? How did
your ex-husband find you so quickly yesterday?”
“It’s all thanks to his biological son. I think there’s some telepathy going on between a father and his
son, or Elias wouldn’t have arrived at the airport so soon. How could he be sure that I was at the
airport, anyway? And even when he arrived at the airport, he didn’t find me, but that little kid Aiden
shouted straightaway, then….”
Amanda looked at Selina helplessly, then shrugged.
“Then he found you…”
Amanda nodded as she sipped the chicken soup.
“What do we do now? Are you going to give up just like that? Aren’t you going to escape again?” Selina
asked.
Amanda drank the chicken soup from time to time as she cocked her head, looking at Selina. “What
point is there in escaping? Did you see how quickly Elias reached the airport? Can I escape that? Even
if I did by some stroke of luck, if Aiden shouts again, we’ll get found out again, won’t we?”
Selina smiled in exasperation. They truly are father and son. They’re related by blood, after all.”
“Oh, right, I’ll be away on some business in the afternoon, so please pick Aiden up from school later,”
Amanda said.
Selina nodded. “Will you be coming home tonight for dinner?”
“It’s okay.”
Soon, it was time for the kindergarten children to go home. Aiden lined up obediently as he waited for
someone to pick him up.
Just then, a middle-aged man appeared in front of him. “Hey, little guy, do you remember me?”
The teacher looked at the unfamiliar middle-aged man, knowing very well that she mustn’t let him take
the child away. She asked, “Who might you be, sir?”
“I’m his grandfather. Can’t grandfathers pick up the children?”
Aiden looked at the older man in front of him, pondering with his tiny brain. Then, he seemed to
remember.
The teacher, however, was being very responsible as she took out her phone and got ready to make a
call. “I’ll call Aiden’s mother to ask, then. We cannot allow strangers to pick up the children.”
“What are you saying, child? How can I be a stranger? I’m the kid’s grandfather. If you don’t believe
me, just ask him.” Dick began to get unreasonable. He absolutely mustn’t let the teacher call Amanda.
The teacher crouched down, saying in half-doubt, “Aiden, tell me, is this your grandfather? If you don’t
know him, just tell me.”
Aiden stared at his grandfather for a while, then said, “Yes, it’s Grandpa.”
When Dick heard Aiden admitting that he was Aiden’s grandfather, he laughed heartily, “See? I told you
I’m his grandfather. As his grandpa, I can pick him up from school, right? Let’s go, Aiden.”
With that, Dick carried Aiden in his arms.
The teacher felt that it would be inappropriate to say anything else, but she was still a little worried, so
she dialed Amanda’s number. However, she quickly realized that the call couldn’t go through.
Dick held Aiden in his arms, elated.
After the kidnapping last time, Dick had always been hiding in the shadows. Now that the security was
getting lax, he made his way back, but he missed his grandson terribly for some reason.
“What would you like to eat, kid? I’ll take you there. Or do you want to play somewhere?”
Dick never expected that he could be this sort of grandfather. In the past, he never imagined what he
would do if he had a grandson.
Aiden pouted as he thought for a bit. “I want to eat hamburgers. Mommy never lets me eat
hamburgers; she said they’re junk food.”
“All right, let’s get some hamburgers, then.”
At the law firm, Amanda arrived at the law firm after work hours. She did it on purpose because she
didn’t want to run into too many people.
She went straight into Simon’s office. Simon was waiting for her in his office. He had waited a long
time, and he was thinking that she wouldn’t show up after all.
Amanda knocked on the door, but she didn’t get any response from the man within.
She thought that Simon was away. She was about to leave when the door unexpectedly opened.
Simon stood at the door, his eyes bloodshot as if he had stayed up for the entire night.
“What… happened to you? Did you stay up all night?” Amanda was shocked.
Simon grabbed her and pulled her into the office, then closed the door.
Amanda was stunned as she turned to look.
Simon, however, shouted in anger, “Amanda! Were you messing around with me?! You said you’d be
leaving, and then you turned off your phone. I couldn’t contact you no matter what I tried, but today
you. told me you didn’t leave and you didn’t plan to leave anymore. I didn’t sleep for an entire night,
and I looked everywhere for you, but you-”
“You looked for me for an entire night?” Amanda couldn’t help but interrupt.
“Yes! I looked in all the places I could, but I never found you. Turns out, you never left in the first place.
Am I a joke to you?” Simon was truly furious now. He thought that Amanda was messing with him on
purpose.
Amanda was stunned.
They were both looking for me.
Elias found her in less than an hour, but Simon spent the entire night looking fruitlessly for her.
How did it turn out like this?
Could it be that Elias was somehow connected to her, and he could sense that she was at the airport?
She felt as if this was fate, and she could never run away from it. Am I destined to be involved with
Elias forever?
“I’m talking to you. What are you thinking about?” Simon was even more furious when he saw Amanda
in’ a daze.
Amanda recovered her senses. “Huh? What did you just say?”
“I’m asking you what exactly you are trying to do. Did you want to resign just to get away from me? Is
that why you made up a lie like that?”
It was the only explanation from Simon’s point of view. Amanda wanted to get away from him, so she
came up with an excuse and said she wanted to leave the country. He wouldn’t have a reason to
decline
then..
Amanda couldn’t help but smile. “How can you think that? I was seriously trying to leave yesterday, but
for various reasons, I couldn’t succeed.”
“Why did you want to leave, and why did you stay in the end?”
“Can you not ask me that? I don’t feel like talking about it.” Amanda felt her head aching from the
interrogation.
Just then, her phone rang. It was a call from Selina.
She didn’t want to answer the call, but Simon’s interrogation was suffocating her, so she chose to
answer the call to relieve the heavy weight on her heart.
Amanda had just walked to the side to answer the call when Selina sobbed over the phone, “Amanda!
Someone took Aiden away! When I went to the kindergarten to pick Aiden up, the teacher said that his
grandfather took him home.”
“What?! How can that be?”
Amanda’s face instantly turned pale, and her eyes were as big as saucers. Without waiting for Selina’s
next words, she hung up and turned around to leave.
Simon, however, grabbed her hand. “Where are you going? We’re not done yet!”
“I have something to deal with. We can continue the conversation tomorrow.” Amanda broke free from
the man’s grasp, an anxious look on her face.
