The Lawyer’s Romance in Law

Symeon smiled and replied, “Try me.”

After taking her last bite, Amanda took the plate and walked toward the kitchen to wash the dish before going to bed. Nevertheless, she heard the man’s voice coming from behind her. “Just leave it there. Somebody else will take care of it.”

“Oh.” Amanda turned around and walked out of the dining area, ready to return to her room. for a shower before bed.

Meanwhile, Symeon was left alone behind at the dining table, finding Amanda’s response amusing as he chuckled silently. She is an interesting lady, isn’t she? But why does it seem to me that she is not the same lady as she was that night four years ago? Has Amanda really changed? Or is it because my memory failed me after such a long time?

Deep down, Symeon could still remember the lady’s enthusiastic approach and the things she said to him. Nevertheless, he couldn’t hear them clearly because he had been drugged at that moment.

While it seemed to him that Amanda had become a completely different person from the one he met that night four years ago, Symeon believed that was because people changed with time, thinking her role as a mother must have made her a more mature woman than she ever was before. At the same time, he kept convincing himself not to overthink as there was no way he would have captured the wrong person. We ran a DNA paternity test, and Amanda admitted it herself. So, nothing could go wrong.

Two days later, it was finally time for Amanda to execute her escape plan with her son, but for some reason, she appeared to be restless the whole day. After all, Symeon was supposed to fly off in the evening, but at that moment, he was still seen sitting in the mansion without any signs of being in a hurry. Having moved into Villa No. 5 with Aiden, Amanda was waiting for Symeon to leave so that she could sneak into Villa No. 4 with her son to meet up with Yacob at midnight.

Soon, the nanny, Colette, came over to inform Amanda and Aiden for dinner. “Miss Bailey, it’s time for you and Mr. Aiden to have dinner.”

Amanda desperately asked, “Has Mr. Lawrence left?”

“No, he hasn’t. He is still in the study.”

What’s he doing in the study? It’s almost dinner time. Are you still going to Fliaria for a business trip? “I thought he was going on a business trip. So, why is he still in the study?” Amanda sounded agitated, confusing Colette.

Alre about that. Colette turned around and walked away upon giving a brief reply.

After that. Amanda collapsed onto the couch in a panicky manner. If Symeon changes his plan and cancels his business trip tonight, Yacob is going to get caught when he comes later. In fact, the reason Yacob and the others were able to easily infiltrate the place so easily was because the banquet gave them the perfect disguise to do so. On the other hand, the entire mansion was quiet without any special activity going on, which would make any strange and unusual movement conspicuous and noticeable. Deep down, Amanda could already foresee how terribly her plan would fail if Symeon decided not to leave the mansion that night.

“The food has gotten cold, Miss Bailey. Would you like to heat them up for you?”
