The Barrister's Love in Town

Chapter 40 Are You Sure She Had an Abortion?

When Amanda returned to the room, she saw that the bodyguards had already beaten the kidnappers to a pulp. She didn’t dare look at them a second longer as she immediately left after she took her phone.

As she walked out of the nightclub, she hailed a cab and began to make a call to Helean when her phone rang.

It was a call from Simon.

Seeing this, she unhesitatingly accepted the call. “Hello?”

“Amanda, where are you? Helean said he couldn’t reach you all night, and Aiden has been with him the whole time. What’s going on?” Simon’s voice sounded urgent. It seemed like he had been trying to reach Amanda for a long time.

“I’ll tell you later. I can’t explain everything now. I’m going to pick Aiden up now. Please tell Helean to wait for me at home.”

She hung up the phone immediately after saying that. She didn’t have time to explain everything. All she wanted to do was to see her baby as soon as possible.

Half an hour later, Amanda arrived at Helean’s house and rang the doorbell.

The little guy was the one who opened the door. He must have been really worried about her.

Amanda quickly crouched down and hugged her son’s fragrant body. She could feel the sense of security washing over her in that instant.

“I’m sorry for being late.”

The child hugged her and patted her on the back. However, he seemed to have noticed. something all of a sudden, and he caressed her cheek. “Mommy, what happened to your face? Why is it so red? Did someone hurt you?”

The boy’s expression suddenly grew solemn.

Embarrassed, she turned her head and tried to brush it off with an explanation. “It’s nothing. I accidentally got sunburned. It was a hot day today and I didn’t put on sunscreen. So-

“Weren’t you supposed to go see a house? How come I couldn’t reach you all night? Aiden and I even thought something had happened to you. We almost called the police,” Helean said as he leaned against the doorframe behind the mother and son.

Amanda stood up while holding her son’s small hand and apologized. I’m sorry. Something came up today, but everything’s okay now. I’ll take Aiden home. You should rest up.”
