The Barrister's Love in Town

Chapter 219 I Would Rather Aiden Does Not Have a Father

Amanda came back to her senses then. “N-Nothing. I’m fine. I want to go home. It’s getting late, and I didn’t return home last night, so Aiden’s probably worried about me…”

While speaking, she grabbed her phone and saw there were countless missed calls from Selina, who was probably anxious after being unable to reach her all night.

Meanwhile, Simon said nothing and just watched her from the side.

Amanda dialed Selina’s number and heard her worried voice. “Amanda, where are you? Why didn’t you answer any of my calls last night? Are you alright?”

“I’m sorry. I’m fine. It’s just that I got drunk last night. I’ll come home later. Has Aiden gone to school?”

“Yes, I sent him to school, and he kept asking why his mommy wasn’t home. I lied, saying you have work today and left early.”

Amanda ràn a hand through her hair upon hearing that. “Alright. I’ll be home soon, so don’t worry.”

After she finished speaking, she hung up and pulled the covers off her. Then, she went to the bathroom to wash up. Since she previously stayed here, she was familiar with the place.

In the meantime, Simon had arrived outside the bathroom, waiting for Amanda to come out.

A while later, when Amanda came out of the bathroom after washing up, she was startled to see Simon standing outside the door. “Why are you standing there? You gave me a fright!”

At that, Simon asked, “Are you going to leave now? I have something to ask you. What happened last night between you and Elias? Why did you get drunk at the bar?”

“It’s nothing. I need to go now. We’ll talk next time.”
