The Barrister's Love in Town

Chapter 129

Chapter 129 Otherwise, I’ll Jump Out of the Car Right Now

“Whatever. It’s useless to try and communicate with you. I don’t even know why I still bother. Just do whatever you want.”

Amanda was about to leave when she suddenly recalled something and turned around to point at him. “Did you remove that empty tombstone? Stop cursing my son!”

A hint of embarrassment flashed across Elias’ face. “It was removed a long time ago.” That was probably the dumbest thing he has done since he was born.

Then, Amanda turned around to hail a cab. Unfortunately, before she could even start waving, he grabbed her arm. “Let me. It’s the rush hour right now. You won’t be able to get a cab.”

She was well aware of that, but she didn’t know how to face him as she was uncomfortable after Elias found out about Aiden’s existence.

Suddenly, she received a call from Simon. He was probably wondering why she wasn’t at the law firm yet.

Amanda glanced at Elias before walking to the side to answer the call, “Hello, I’m on my way. I’m just stuck in traffic at the moment. I’ll be there soon. Don’t wait for me. You guys should start the meeting without

me.”

Elias knew immediately who she was talking to and a hint of jealousy filled his eyes.

After Amanda hung up the phone, she got in his car and urged, “Can you drive faster? I’m going to be late for work. I have an important meeting to get to.”

Elias didn’t speak. Instead, he silently got in and started the car, departing from the kindergarten.

After he left the residential area, he deliberately drove slowly and took the longer route.

Amanda didn’t notice it at first but when she felt they were getting farther from the law firm, she inquired. “Why did you take a longer route?”

“Because of the jam.” Elias kept his gaze forward like a focused driver.

Yet, he kept detouring. It was obvious he didn’t want her to go to work.
