The Barrister's Love in Town

Chapter 268 Dining at the Allegra Villa

“No, I don’t.” Although Amanda raised her voice on purpose just to oppose Elias, he didn’t say more as he decided to see her off.

When they arrived at the basement car park, Amanda suddenly spoke up. “Let’s have a meal at the Allegra Villa this weekend. You have to come with me; I don’t really know Jack, and Aiden may not like it either. You have to be around to maintain order.”

The man was stunned for a moment. ‘He didn’t think that Amanda would agree so quickly. He initially thought that Amanda would reject him. “All right, I’ll pick you guys up when the time comes.”

“Okay.” Amanda opened the car door and got into the driver’s seat. She started the car and slowly drove

away.

The man stood where he was, watching the taillights of the car gradually disappear into the distance. He let out a deep sigh. Amanda probably didn’t want this, but she compromised. He didn’t know what Amanda was compromising for, either.

Soon, it was the weekend.

In the evening. Aiden kept asking for food, but Elias still hadn’t shown up.

“Come on, stop shouting. When Daddy comes, I’ll take you to get nice food, all right?”

“But when is Daddy coming? Why isn’t he here yet? I’m so hungry.” Aiden put a piteous look on his face. He was almost losing it.

Amanda comforted her son. “I just called to ask, and he said there was a slight traffic jam on his way here. He’ll be here soon, so please hang in there. Here’s a cookie to snack on.”

Ding-dong-

The doorbell finally rang. Aiden tossed the cookie in his hand and dashed over to open the door.

Amanda shook her head in exasperation, then said to Selina, “We won’t be having dinner at home tonight, so remember to eat on time. We might come home late, so you don’t have to wait for us.”

Selina smiled as she nodded. “All right, got it.”
