The Barrister's Love in Town

Chapter 123

Chapter 123 As Humble as a Lamb

When the silence stretched on, Simon couldn’t help but ask from the other end of the line, “Why! Do you regret it now?”

Amanda was sitting on the bed as she agitatedly ran a hand through her hair. “It’s not about that, but why are you coming up with such a request? I don’t remember you as-”

“A dominant and bossy man, right? But I want to be dominant and bossy just this once, only then can we get married as soon as possible.” This time, Simon was determined and didn’t want to miss his chance anymore.

The situation was getting better now, and he was worried that he would not have even a sliver of a chance if this dragged on. He feared that Elias would win Amanda over with time; after all, they had a child to bridge the gap between them.

“Simon, you and Lunabelle__”

Still, Amanda had a feeling that Lunabelle wouldn’t let go of her relationship with Simon so easily. Furthermore, she had just ended her marriage and it was obvious that the reason she returned to the country this time was to patch things up with Simon.

“Amanda, I’ll tell you one last time. It’s impossible between me and Lu. It was over between us the day when she chose to marry another man. Besides, try looking out for yourself for a change. 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.
