Chapter 47 Why Is His Bad Temper Exactly Like a Certain

Someone’s?

The villa area in Galaxy Bay

Amanda’s head was a mess throughout her drive back home. She somehow managed to make the 30-minute drive into an hour today.

After she parked her car in the garage, she dragged her exhausted body into the villa.

She was trudging past the living room when she saw a scene that made her stop in her tracks.

Simon and a woman were sitting on the couch in the living room, whereas Aiden was playing with puzzles beside them.

What is going on? Simon rented this place to me, didn’t he? Why would he bring a woman back here?

When she was quietly wondering what was happening, Aiden immediately caught sight of her. and he shouted excitedly. “Mommy! You’re home!”

He then dashed over and lunged at her.

Amanda was immediately brought back to her senses by the child’s voice. Instinctively, she opened her arms to her baby who smelled like sweet milk.

Simon and the woman on the couch turned their heads to look at the mother-son duo at the same time upon hearing that.

Simon got up slowly and walked toward her. “Why are you back so late, Amanda? I was just about to go and pick you up. Aiden insisted that he will only go to bed after you tell him a bedtime

story.”

The atmosphere in the living room felt strange for some reason she couldn’t pinpoint.

And as Amanda spoke, she finally took a good look at the woman on the couch. The latter had a cold demeanor, exquisite facial features, and black, long hair so straight she looked like art itself.
