The Barrister's Love in Town

Chapter 191 Why Did You Take the Initiative to Call Me?

Amanda’s anxious expression gave Simon the impression that she was avoiding him again.

“Is there any point in running away, Amanda? Are you trying to avoid me all your life?”

Amanda was panicking at that moment, so she wasn’t in the mood to debate such things with him. She flung the man’s hand away and yelled, “Quit bugging me! I have to deal with an emergency! Let me go!”

“What do we do, Amanda? Aiden is missing! The kindergarten teacher said that his grandpa came and took him away, so why don’t you call your father—”

“But I looked at the surveillance footage. It truly was a middle-aged man who picked up the child, and he looked very much like your father. I hadn’t met him in years, so I can’t remember what he looked like. I recorded some of the footage, so you can see if it’s your father or not.”

Selina took out her phone and played the surveillance footage, showing it to Amanda.

She had met Dick once when she was very young, and now she almost couldn’t remember his face.

Amanda glanced at the surveillance footage in the video, then immediately fumed. It truly was Dick, that
