Chapter 153 Don’t Make Me Do It

Amanda really couldn’t stand this anymore. How can this jerk be so unforgiving? “You’re

really something. Elias! You’re not even sparing the kid?”

Elias leisurely ate his congee. “He’s part of the reason why I got a cold. Had he not been

afraid of ghosts. and insisted that I sleep with him, I wouldn’t have had my blanket

snatched away, nor would I have caught a cold,” he argued, not forgetting to tickle

Aiden’s nose with his finger. “What do you think, kiddo? Isn’t that right?”

Aiden stared at him before nodding. “Yeah, it seems so

Amanda was speechless. Oh, why are you so obedient to him, my dumb son? “Your fever

has almost gone down, and you took fever medicine just now, so you’ll be fine in the

afternoon. Don’t latch onto us! I’m taking Baby to the movies this afternoon. He’s been

asking to see a movie for a long time,” she said.

Taking a bite of garlic bread, Elias replied, “What should we do, then? I feel like my fever’s

not going away today, so I need somebody to take care of me. How about this? I’ll go with

you two to the movies. If I get really unwell, you can send me to the hospital anytime.”

Aiden nodded vigorously. “Yeah, let’s go with us, Uncle Elias! ‘PAW Patrol’ is a fun movie to

watch!”

PAW Patrol? Elias frowned; he had hardly watched any children’s movies before. He had

disliked children before having a son, nor had he felt any desire to tease other people’s

kids when he saw them. Seems like L have to pay more attention to children’s preferences

from now on.

Amanda was lost for words. This jerk really has no sense of shame!

In the afternoon, Amanda brought Aiden to the movie theater, accompanied by a tall and

handsome ‘bodyguard-Elias-from behind. They looked like a family of three coming to the

movies, causing many to cast envious glances at them.

After Amanda took the tickets, Aiden nagged her for popcorn and drinks, so she could only

head to the counter to buy them. “Tell the lady what you’d like to drink,” she said while

lifting him up.

Aiden just wanted Coke. “Madam, I’d like Coke with lots of ice! Thank you so much,

madam.”

“Okay! What a good boy you are, little boy. The three of you are so good-looking,” said the

movie theater attendant to Amanda with a smile while getting the Coke for Aiden.

Feeling embarrassed, Amanda smiled without saying a word. The three of us, huh… She

looked back at Elias, who was standing beside her. Indeed, if they hadn’t divorced, they

would’ve been a family of three now. Many times she wondered what if they hadn’t

divorced and if Elias had believed Aiden’s existence back then. Would the three of them

be living a happy life as a family now?

“Thank you.” Elias naturally took the popcorn and Coke when they were handed over.

Seeing that the movie was about to start in five minutes, he turned to look at Amanda,

saying, “Let me carry him instead. You take these.”

Amanda didn’t refuse either, for she was really tired of carrying Aiden in her arms right

now. This brat is really getting heavier, she thought.

On the contrary, Elias effortlessly picked the boy up with one arm.

Amanda followed behind them, but when they arrived at the ticket entrance, an awkward

situation happened….

Amanda couldn’t believe they would actually bump into Simon and Lunabelle here.

They’re coming to the movies together? So, Simon professed his faithful love for me while

maintaining such a relationship with Lunabelle? All of a sudden, she felt like she had been

cheated. She thought she was very important to Simon, but in reality, he could never get

over Lunabelle. At this instant, many thoughts crossed her mind until they were. jumbled

together.

Aiden, on the other hand, called out naturally, “Uncle Simon!”

Simon was also surprised to see the three of them; he also never expected Amanda would

come to the movies with Elias in such harmony. “You two-” he began, but just when he

wanted to speak, Lunabelle interrupted, “Simon, let’s go in. The movie’s about to start.”

Amanda ignored Simon and merely greeted Lunabelle with a smile, saying, “It’s been a

while.”

“Uh-huh.” Lunabelle was apparently cold toward Amanda, perhaps because she was

offended by the latter. meeting Simon’s parents with him earlier.

Elias said nothing throughout, nor did he bother to speak. He only wanted to punch Simon

at the sight of this guy. However, Aiden had gotten quite a fright when he did so last time,

so he learned to keep silent. now After showing their tickets, he walked toward Hall No. 7

with the boy in his arms, and Amandà caught up with them.

Simon couldn’t help but call out to her, “Amanda, Lunabelle has been showing signs of

depression lately. so I came here with her to help her relax.”

Amanda pondered for a moment, but she had no idea how to answer. All she could say

was an impassive “Uh-huh,” before she turned toward Hall No. 7.

Needless to say, Simon and Lunabelle weren’t here to see a children’s movie, so they went

to Hall No. 5.

Lunabelle was very displeased with the man’s explanation, and she felt bitter deep down.

“Simon, if you care that much about how Amanda feels, just go to her instead. I’m not

important. I can watch the movie alone.”

Simon replied, “Let’s go. The movie is about to start. At this moment, he was angry deep

down. He didn’t understand why Amanda had always been inseparable from Elias lately.

She had agreed to marry him, and yet she was so iffy about it. Is she giving up just

because of what my parents said to her? Does she really have no feelings for me? For the

past four years that they had spent abroad, Amanda had been incredibly dependent on

him, and Aiden had made many attempts to bring them together. He had thought several

times that he and Amanda would end up being together, but he never thought things

would turn out like this after they returned to their home country.

A movie generally lasted about two hours. After the movie ended, Amanda walked out of

Hall No. 7, praying deep down that they wouldn’t bump into Simon and Lunabelle again.

Unfortunately, things didn’t go as she wished. The movie Simon and Lunabelle watched

seemed to have ended as well, and they came out at just the same time.

Aiden had fallen asleep when the movie ended, so Elias had no choice but to carry the boy

out of Hall No. 7. Running into Simon and Lunabelle again, he also chose to ignore them.

Lunabelle was the first to speak. “What a coincidence. Your movie has ended as well?”

Elias couldn’t answer that, so only Amanda nodded, saying, “Yeah. Well, we gotta go. The

kid’s asleep.”

Seeing how the three of them looked like such a happy family, Simon finally snapped. He

stepped forward. and grabbed Amanda’s wrist, asking, “Amanda, are we strangers from

now on? Don’t you forget that. just said yes to my marriage proposal! Are you giving up

just because of a few harsh words from my parents? Am I so unimportant to you?”

Amanda was at a momentary loss for,how to deal with Simon’s sudden verbal attack.

you

On the other hand, Elias strode over and wrenched Simon’s hand away. He warned

through clenched. teeth in a grim voice, “I don’t want to get into a fight in front of my kid,

so don’t make me do it. Get lost!” With that, he took Amanda by the hand toward the

elevator lobby.

Just then, Aiden let out a moan, seemingly roused from sleep by the altercation.

Elias patted him on the back, soothing him back to sleep.
