Unfortunately, Elias had noticed them just as they were about to get up and leave, for he was approaching their direction.

Amanda was hastily packing up and by the time she turned around, she froze as Elias was only a few feet away from them.

At that, countless possible scenes of the Winterses fighting her for the right over Aiden rushed to her head. What should I do?

Meanwhile, Simon pulled Aiden into his arms and concealed his face under his jacket. “Aiden, don’t look back,” he whispered. “I’ll bring you out tomorrow to play again if you lean quietly on my shoulder for a while.”

“You have a son?” Elias asked with narrowed eyes. “Is he a love child?”

The atmosphere turned incredibly eerie, and Amanda couldn’t help gulping and clenching her hands nervously.
