The Barrister's Love in Town

Chapter 123

Chapter 123 As Humble as a Lamb

Isn’t it better that you marry me instead of some other man? At least we know each other and I have a good rapport with Aiden. Will another man dote on him as I do?”

Amanda fell silent. His words rang true as she was indeed afraid that her future partner, if she ever decided to re-marry, couldn’t find it in his heart to take in Aiden as his own. That was precisely why she was so cautious.
