Chapter 376 Mr Lawrence
The next few days were relatively calm with no abnormalities. Since Yacob always stayed
by her side, Amanda decided not to go out at all.
She was afraid that Yacob would be bored staying at the Allegra Villa, so she arranged for
him to protect Aiden at the kindergarten.
Finally, she had a moment to catch her breath. She went for a walk in the garden, enjoying
the faint fragrance of flowers while emptying her mind.
Suddenly, her phone rang.
It was an international call, but it was from Elias. A smile finally appeared on her face as
she answered the call. “Are you done with work? You finally thought about calling me,
huh?”
“Yeah. Never-ending meetings, you know. It’s nighttime there, right? Is Aiden asleep? Let
me talk to him for a bit.
She scoffed and toyed with the flower petals in front of her with her other hand. “Not yet,
but Yacob is with him, and they’re having fun with the mini excavator. I don’t understand
why he likes playing with excavators. My father bought him a mini version, and he’s busy
destroying his grandfather’s garden.
A low chuckle came from the phone. “In that case, I shouldn’t disturb him. He’s pretty
mischievous, just like I was when I was young
“Were you this mischievous when you were younger? I only remember Grandpa saying
you were a cheeky child.” Thinking of Howard, she couldn’t help but sigh. Sigh, he has
already passed away for several months.
At the mention of Howard, the man on the phone fell silent for a while. It seemed as
though she could. imagine the expression of reminiscence on his face.
After a moment, Amanda tried to break the awkward silence. “By the way, when are you
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtcoming back?”
“In two days. Why? Missing me already?”
“What? No. It’s your son who misses you.” She would never admit that she missed Elias.
The man’s laughter sounded pleased. “Stay at home and wait for me. I’ll be back the day
after tomorrow.”
“Okay.”
Just then, Elias’ side seemed to have received another call. He had no choice but to hang
up on her. “Sorry, I have to take this call.
“Alright, go ahead.”
After hanging up the phone, she couldn’t help but burst into laughter. She then looked at
little Aiden. playing with the mini excavator beside her, while Yacob stood guard like a
knight by his side. Looking at this, she shook her head helplessly.
She was getting tired and let out a yawn, intending to go back to her room and sleep.
Once this little troublemaker is done playing. Yacob will carry him back to sleep.
Just as she was about to go in, her phone rang again. She thought it was another call from
Elias, but upon closer inspection, it was another international call.

She looked at the phone that kept ringing, searching her memory for the important figures
she had known in Esmos. I don’t think any of them have any connection with me.
Since her phone kept ringing, she answered the call after hesitating for a while. “Hello?”
“Miss Bailey, we have arrived in Imperia, and my master has settled down. He wishes to
meet you. Would you like to come on your own, or shall we pick you up?”
“Where do you get the confidence to think I’d want to meet your master? Besides, can you
tell me who your master is?” She wanted to know who this so-called master was.
This time, the man on the phone didn’t hide it anymore and said directly. “My master’s
last name is Lawrence. Does it ring a bell?”
Lawrence? Is it the Lawrence Family I knew when I was abroad? I’ve never had any
dealings with anyone from that family, so why would they look for me?
When she was abroad, she wanted to take on the Lawrence Family’s legal affairs, but they
didn’t even spare her a glance as she was just a rookie. Why would they want to meet me
now? Do they want to collaborate? I’m based in Cludan now, so what use will they have for
me?
Her mind was filled with questions, but she managed to calm down and ask, “Is it Mr.
Lawrence of the Lawrence Family? The new heir?”
She vaguely remembered that this new heir had a peculiar temperament. The outside
world only knew that he was young, but no one had seen him in person, and there were no
pictures of him online. He was well protected.
“Yes.”
Really? “Why does he want to meet me? I have no connection with Mr. Lawrence. Why
would he suddenly come all the way here to meet me?” She couldn’t figure it out, for she
didn’t even know what this Mr. Lawrence looked like, but he had come all the way to
Cludan to meet her.
The man on the phone reiterated his words like a robot. “You’ll know when you come to
Cloudview Hotel. My master is currently dining at the restaurant. He said he’d wait for you
for half an hour.” After that, he hung up the phone directly, not giving Amanda a chance to
reply.
At this moment, she stared at the disconnected call on her phone screen and pondered for
a long time. but she still couldn’t figure out the connection between herself and Mr.
Lawrence. However, her curiosity had been piqued, so she decided to go and find out.
In the restaurant of Cloudview Hotel, a man dressed in a black shirt and pants was dining
alone at a dining table. He had an exquisite and handsome mixed-race appearance, with
features leaning toward the Eastern side.
While waiting for Amanda to show up, he used his knife and fork to slowly cut the steak on
his plate. I wonder what Amanda looks like. This is also my opportunity to seek revenge
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmand reclaim my child. I can’t allow the Lawrence Family’s offspring to be left adrift outside.
With a cold expression, the bodyguard standing beside him said, “Sir, Miss Bailey will be
here soon.”
“Alright.”

The man kept his gaze lowered, looking at the piece of steak on his plate with a strong
sense of disdain. He then muttered. “This tastes terrible.”
After a while, Amanda entered the restaurant and scanned the room. With just one glance,
she locked her gaze on the man. It wasn’t because she recognized Mr. Lawrence, but
because he exuded a strong presence. His striking appearance and aristocratic demeanor
made it impossible to look. away.
She could confirm that he was the newly appointed head of the Lawrence Family.
For some time, she stood in place, observing him. He continued to cut his steak as if he
hadn’t noticed her presence.
She then slowly walked to the seat across from him and sat down. Meanwhile, the
bodyguard left tactfully.
After she looked the man up and down, she thought, Tsk. tsk. With looks like that, how can
he be so low-key? Not even a single photo can be found online. She initially thought it was
because he was unattractive, so he didn’t want people to know about his appearance.
The man finally raised his gaze, looking at the woman in front of him. He narrowed his
eyes slightly, and his thin lips exuded a seductive appeal. His eyes were filled with a hint
of laziness as he asked, “Are you Amanda?”
Well, she’s a beauty. That was his evaluation of Amanda in his mind. In that case, I’m not
too unlucky. The child won’t look too bad either.
At this thought, his anger subsided quite a bit..
