The Lawyer’s Romance in Law

Chapter 179 Aiden Is Hidden

Howard became slightly unhappy. “Aiden isn’t that fragile. He didn’t cry for long last night and fell asleep obediently. It’s not that difficult to calm him down…”

As soon as Amanda heard that Aiden had cried last night, her heart tightened. “Did he cry? Was he looking

for me?”

Although fearless during the day, he still needed her to comfort and tuck him in at night. After all, he was only three years old.

Howard waved his hand dismissively. “It’s normal for children to cry—”

Without waiting to hear the rest of his words, she swiftly turned around and left to find Aiden in the garden. He won’t easily let Aiden leave with me. No matter how much I try to reason with him, it would be futile.

After she left, Elias sat on the couch and gazed at the resolute Howard across from him, asking in a serious tone. “He’s not in the garden, is he?”

Howard maintained his silence, lifting his teacup and sipping from it. His demeanor could be interpreted as an acknowledgment.

With a sneer, Elias slammed his hand on the coffee table, causing a loud noise. “Grandpa! Do you find it meaningful to act this way? Don’t you realize that you can’t hide Aiden forever? He needs his mother, don’t you understand? Besides, Amanda isn’t refusing to let you see him. Is this necessary?”

Furious, he had anticipated that Howard would go to great lengths but never imagined it would be this extreme. It was clear that Howard had no intentions of reuniting Aiden with Amanda but also had ulterior motives of claiming the child as his own.

“You can say that, but Amanda refuses to remarry you and return to the Winters Family. Do you know what that means? She could vanish with Aiden at any moment. I’ve been waiting for him for so long. I can’t allow her to take him away for another four years. How many more years do I have left? I can’t—”
