Chapter 420 Who Let You Come Here?

Symeon took a sip from his wine glass and looked at her. “There’s no need to talk about forgiveness between us. As long as we don’t provoke each other, it’s fine.”

Elizabeth did not know how to respond to his words, so she smiled and remained silent.

She then decided to bring up another topic. “What about the child after that woman leaves? We cannot let him grow up without a mother’s love. Why not give him to me? I will treat him as my own child-*

Finally, she realized that dealing with a man like Symeon required a soft approach, not a hard one.

However, before she could finish her sentence, Symeon interrupted her. “No need. The child will be taken care of. You don’t have to worry about it.”

His meaning was clear. Elizabeth would never be allowed to have contact with the child.

“Why? We’re going to get married eventually. Do you not plan to let me be involved with the child at all? Are you afraid of what I might do to him?” Elizabeth’s heart was bleeding. Why was this man so cold and heartless toward her? Text property © Nôvel(D)ra/ma.Org.

Symeon simply looked at her in silence, not saying a word. It was obvious that he agreed with her assumption.

Meanwhile, Amanda looked down at the banquet taking place below.

This was the perfect opportunity for her to find an exit and escape. She looked at the child sleeping soundly beside her.

Amanda returned to the bed and gently woke up Aiden.

“Baby, wake up, Wake up.”

“Mmm… I want to sleep.”

“There are so many fun things outside. Don’t you want to go?” Amanda used a coaxing tone to persuade the boy.

Aiden rubbed his eyes, looking extremely sleepy. “What’s so fun outside?”

“Look, there are so many people outside. Shall we go out and play?”

“Okay!”

As soon as the word was mentioned, he became energetic. He sat up, climbed down from the bed, and went to the window to see the crowd outside. He exclaimed, “Wow, Mommy. There are so many people. I want to go out and play too.”

“Alright. Let’s go.”

Amanda had already made up her mind. If they were caught later, she would blame it on him.

So, she secretly sneaked out of the villa with the child.

Amanda pointed to the distant banquet and said, “Baby, let’s go there. There’s lots of delicious food and fun things.”

They would never get lost there. Symeon would definitely bring Aiden back if he saw him.

Aiden ran toward the banquet while Amanda walked in the opposite direction. She wanted to explore the villa and check if there were any secret passages.

She had to find a way to escape. Did she have to listen to Melissa and stay here forever? No way!

As Amanda walked, she saw a gardener tending to the weeds. His phone was in the back pocket of his pants.

She quietly approached him and took the phone from the gardener’s pocket. Then, she quickly dialed. Yacob’s number.

However, it kept ringing for a long time without an answer.

What was going on?

Could something have happened back home?

Amanda did not give up and dialed again, but still, no one answered. She had no choice but to return the phone to its original place..

Meanwhile, Yacob, who had just arrived at the airport, turned to his four friends, and said, “This mission is very dangerous. We need to be prepared for injuries.”

“Yacob, we know. Lawrence Estate is not easy to infiltrate.”

“I’ve already checked and hacked into the security system of the Lawrence Estate. There are over a hundred cameras inside. It was difficult looking for blind spots in the system.”

Yacob furrowed his brows. Unexpectedly, the person continued, “I did find a few blind spots, though. It’s just enough for us to get in. However, the estate is huge, and it will be challenging to find Mrs. Winters. There are at least a hundred rooms inside.”

“I think Mrs. Winters might be hidden in the more secluded villa area.” Yacob analyzed the situation.

“I’ve already made contact with an insider in the estate. A gardener. I paid him a hefty sum to draw a map of the estate for me.”

Yacob raised an eyebrow. “You’ve done well. When Mr. Winters wakes up, I’ll make sure he reimburses. you.”

“That won’t be necessary, but can you help me get a promotion on Mr. Winters’ behalf?”

“You’re ambitious, but I like people with ambition. Sure, no problem. Alright, let’s get back on track. Tell me about the map.” Yacob just wanted to find Amanda and Aiden as soon as possible so that he had an explanation for Elias.

“This is the map. Based on my analysis, I believe the lady and the child might be hidden in Villa No. 4. According to the gardener, Symeon has been frequently going in and out of Villa No. 4 recently, and there are sounds of children coming from there. However, only designated servants are allowed to enter, and others are not permitted.”

Yacob looked at the map, squinting his eyes. It seemed that Amanda was in Villa No. 4.

“Brothers, let’s go. For Mr. Winters, for our future.”

Yacob put away the map and looked at his brothers, giving them encouragement and orders at the same time.

At the banquet, Aiden suddenly rushed into the midst of the event. Many people looked at this little guy who had barged in with strange looks and started whispering about him.

“Whose child is this? I’ve never seen him before.”

“There aren’t many people bringing children here today.”

“This child looks like he’s not a local, and he’s quite pretty.”

Aiden was born in Esmos, so he easily understood what they were saying.

When he saw a tiered cake, he reached out to grab a bite and brought it to his mouth. His eyes widened at how delicious it was.

Meanwhile, Symeon was elegantly enjoying his meal when he heard the discussions. He turned his head. to take a look and could not take his eyes off the boy.

How did this little guy end up here?

Symeon immediately got up and walked toward Aiden. He buttoned up his suit jacket and carried the little one with one arm before walking to the side.

When Elizabeth witnessed this, she did not think the child was lost. She was certain that the woman must have sent the child over, wanting him to be shown to the world so that she had a legitimate reason to be with Symeon.

Her hand clenched around the wine glass as she gritted her teeth. “She’s delusional! Do not even think that this will gain you anything from Symeon. You do not deserve it!”

Symeon carried Aiden to a secluded spot by the lake and placed the little one, covered in cream, on the grass. He squatted down and asked, “Who let you come here?”

“I want to eat that cake. The cake is so delicious.” Aiden’s mind was filled with thoughts of the cake. It was so big.

Symeon felt a little helpless. He wiped Aiden’s hands clean with a napkin and said, “Alright, I’ll have the butler bring some cake to you later, okay?”
