The Barrister's Love in Town

Chapter 156 Have You Really Made Up Your Mind?

Amanda continued, “Do you understand anything I said?”

She expected him to act as if he had lost his memory and begin to beg her to remarry him again without. caring about her wishes.

However, Elias finally moved his gaze from the television onto her face. “I do. I respect your wishes, and I won’t force you to do things you don’t like anymore.”

Amanda was dumbstruck. Did this b”stard change personalities? Since when was he capable of saying something so reasonable? Is this still the same bossy and aggressive Elias I know?

She froze for a second before saying, “Are you sure? Have you really made up your mind? So, you won’t force me to remarry, and you won’t fight for Aiden’s custody anymore?”

Why was it so hard for her to believe that? After all, this was Elias she was dealing with. How would the most tyrannical man of Imperia become so amiable? Did he suddenly have a change of heart?

See, what did I say? Elias could never become so reasonable all of a sudden. Let’s see what condition he has.

“What condition?”

Amanda assumed that he would deliberately come up with a condition that would put her in a difficult spot, but he unexpectedly said, “I can give up on fighting for Aiden’s custody, and I can stop forcing you to remarry as well, but you have to let Aiden know that I’m his biological father. Moreover, I have to be able to visit him anytime; in other words, you can’t stop us from spending time together.”

That’s it? Amanda was dumbfounded. This feels so unreal. Am I dreaming?

“Is that it? Are those all your conditions?” she asked, still unable to believe her eyes or her ears.
