The Barrister's Love in Town

Chapter 292 I Knew You Would Come Back

After leaving the Momsey Residence, Amanda wasted no time and hailed a cab to rush to the hospital.

Upon her arrival, she discovered an empty ward, save for Aiden sleeping there alone. Shouldn’t Selina be by his side during this critical time?

With a frown, Amanda entered the ward and walked up to the side of the bed. As she looked. at her son’s pale face, her heart instantly tightened.

Taking a seat, she gently held Aiden’s tiny hand and brought it close to her face.

Suddenly, the boy slowly opened his eyes and recognized his mother. Then, he happily sat up and eagerly threw himself into her warm embrace while wrapping his arms tightly around her neck. “Mommy, where did you go? I’ve been searching for you for so long. Mommy!”

He clutched onto her tightly as if afraid that his mother might vanish in the blink of an eye. Amanda’s eyes welled up with tears, and she couldn’t hold them back.

Holding her baby close, she murmured, “I had to go out to take care of something, my sweet boy. Have you been good and taken your medicine? By the way, where is Miss Selina? Did Daddy come to visit you?”

As Amanda had been gone the entire afternoon, she anxiously hoped that Elias hadn’t noticed her absence yet.

Aiden held onto her tightly. “Miss Selina promised to make me something delicious. Daddy went to find you because I was missing you…”

His voice choked with sadness, and he looked utterly pitiful.

With a heart filled with anguish, Amanda gazed down at her son. “Baby, what’s wrong? I am

Aiden’s voice trembled as he said, “When my nose started bleeding earlier, I really needed. you, Mommy. You weren’t here, so Daddy went to find you. He told me that if he found you, both of you would come back together.”

A heavy silence hung in the air as Amanda absorbed his words.

It became clear that Elias had discovered her absence and was desperately searching for her since he couldn’t reach her.

Instinctively, Amanda held Aiden tightly in her arms. He looked into her eyes and asked,
