The Barrister's Love in Town

Chapter 530 You Just Find Me Amusing!

The atmosphere turned icy at the drop of a hat after Elias’ words.

Amanda gazed at the man dumbly. Meanwhile, the remnants of anger had yet to disappear from his face.

He was genuinely furious. This was the first time he had wanted to celebrate her birthday sincerely, but it was all ruined.

When they were secretly married, he didn’t even know when her birthday was. In fact, het barely paid any attention to her at all. It was his grandfather who reminded him of her birthday. When he learned about it, he only instructed the kitchen to prepare a slice of cake for her.

In retrospect, there was no doubt that Amanda was disappointed with him back then.

So, he desperately wanted to make it up to her. Alas, it was all for naught because the day was. ruined anyway.

Therefore, he was angry. Still, he was even more upset at himself for causing such a disturbance on her birthday.

“Then, you can celebrate it with me next year… I don’t mind.” She suddenly felt less vexed. In fact, she had known deep in her heart that he didn’t mean to say the wrong thing. It was just that she couldn’t help but feel jealous regardless of the circumstances.

He pulled her into his arms and gently pressed her head against his chest. “Can you hear it?”

His bizarre actions slightly took her aback. “Hear what?”

“My heartbeat.”

She slowly raised her head and stared at him in confusion. “Heartbeat? What do you mean?”

The man lowered his head and looked at her solemnly. “Can’t you hear how fast my heart beats for you? Do you know how nervous I am when I saw your impassive attitude? I thought you didn’t love me anymore. I was petrified that you didn’t want me anymore! So, do you understand where I’m coming from right now?!”

Although the man was yelling in anger and appeared very distraught, she still couldn’t help but find it amusing.

Her mind started envisioning him as an aggrieved Tibetan Mastiff that had its furs standing on end. Now that she had time to think about it, wasn’t he exactly like that? Sure, he was hopping mad at her. Yet, he still wanted her to cuddle him and soothe him.

In the end, Amanda couldn’t hold back her amusement and giggled softly. Truth be told, she would be giggling up a storm if she hadn’t tried very hard to restrain herself.

Elias immediately started ranting in indignation. “Are you actually finding this funny right now? Do you really find my anxiety so hilarious?”
