Chapter 462 Why Is He So Fickle?

Yacob conjured up a stomach ache excuse to trail the car. He wanted to replace out which villa it washeading 10. Eventually, he noticed the car pulled up in front of Villa No. 2, where Symeon and Aidendisembarked

Despite his concerns. Yacob felt a sense of relief upon observing the little guy, who seemed displeasedyet unharmed. Then, he thought, Lawrence likely remains oblivious to the truth, thus maintaining hisaffection for the little guy. Nonetheless. I must rescue the little guy before this lunatic uncovers thetruth.

Hence, he stood by, watching Aiden enter Villa No. 2 before departing with a sense of reassurance. Heplanned to talk to Aiden later that night.

After returning to his post, Yacob suddenly noticed the car driving out again. He instinctively loweredhis head and resumed weeding the grass. He feared that Symeon, sitting inside the vehicle, mightrecognize

him.

The car passed by in silence, and only then did Yacob dare to look up. He breathed a sigh of relief ashe noticed Symeon was engrossed in his phone, showing no inclination to glance out from the earwindow.

Then, his thoughts drifted to Amanda, wondering how she was faring back in the country. He knewabout Elias’ amnesia and inferred that she must endure a trying period. Sighing, he murmured. “Mr.Winters, please regain your memory soon. I fear I cannot rescue Aiden alone. He knew that he couldonly silently watch over the little guy.

As the night deepened, the entire estate succumbed to a deep slumber. Yacob reverted his originalappearance and silently entered Villa No. 2. Once inside, he ascended the stairs to Aiden’s masterbedroom and gently pushed open the door. Just as he expected, the little guy was sleeping inside.

Initially, he had merely intended to glance at the child and depart. However, a faint whimpering caughthis ear, and he furrowed his brow as he listened.

“Mommy… Does Daddy not want us again, Mommy…”

Aiden’s plaintive murmur tugged at Yacob’s heartstrings, even against his resolute nature. Never beforehad he felt such empathy for a child’s sorrow.

So, he approached and gently stroked the little guy’s head. He couldn’t help but mutter, How could Mr.Winters not want you? He cherishes you more than anything, but he’s just unable to be with you now.When Mr. Winters regains his memory, he’ll destroy Lawrence Estate and bring you back to his side.

Aiden seemed to sense someone touching him and opened his eyes in fear. When he saw it wasYacob, he exclaimed in surprise. “Is it you, Yacob? Are you here to take me home? Did Daddy sendyou?”

The baby climbed out of bed and rushed into Yacob’s arms.

Yacob held the small body tightly and said. “Yes, your daddy asked me to come.”

When are we leaving? I don’t want to stay here anymore. It’s lonely without Mommy or youEverything’s so boring.” Aiden’s frustration had reached its peak. He felt utterly lifeless and devoid ofpurpose within the estate’s confines.

Yacob suddenly felt guilty and didn’t know how to explain it to the child. He thought for a long timebefore saying. “Soon, we will take you back very soon. Your daddy has been a little busy recently

When he’s done, he will come and pick you up. You’re going to kindergarten, right? Haven’t you seenyour old

Triends? Why are you still unhappy!

I can’t replace my old friends, and they don’t want to play with me anymore” Aiden pouted in grievanteYacob hugged the child rightly and reassured him. “You can make new friends. Don’t

“What about you? Will you stay with me? It’s lonely here by myself”

“Of course, your daddy specifically asked me to accompany you. I’m here every day, planting flowersand weeding over there. If you’re free, you can play with me, okay?”

“Yay!” Aiden was finally happy to see a familiar face.

At the sight of the little guy’s smile, Yacob’s mood improved greatly.

Back in the country, Amanda decided to go to the Winters Enterprise. She was growing restless justsitting around in the hotel. Since she knew Elias had initiated an investigation, she could discern thatprogress should be underway. Also, she couldn’t afford to place too much trust in Rosie.

Determined, Amanda decided to visit the company. She approached the receptionist and expressedher desire to meet him. After a call through the secretary’s internal line, she was directed to the 17thfloor and started heading toward the president’s office.

Suddenly, the secretary intervened and blocked her path. “Miss Bailey, could you please wait for amoment? Mr. Winters is currently occupied and might not have time to see you.”

“It’s nearly noon. What’s keeping him so occupied? I just want to say a few words. If he’s busy, I’llleave.”

Amanda was about to proceed, but the secretary stood firm, blocking her way. “Please understand,Miss Bailey. Mr. Winters is genuinely preoccupied. Forcing an entry might lead to repercussions for me.It’s not easy to secure employment…”

After hearing this, she was almost persuaded, understanding the challenges of being an employee.She didn’t wish to make things more difficult for them.

Hence, she turned toward the waiting area when laughter reached her ears from behind the office door.Then, she thought, Huh? A woman’s laughter? This voice… It sounds strangely familiar. What is goingon?

Perplexed, Amanda turned back and approached the office door. She strained to listen and couldclearly discern Rosie’s laughter from inside. Her eyes widened in disbelief.

In the meantime, the secretary, standing beside her, noticed her intention to barge in. Hence, thesecretary hastily intervened to stop her. “Miss Bailey, the waiting area is that way!

“Get out of my way!” Amanda brushed the secretary aside, pushed open the door, and entered

The door swung open, and she saw Elias and Rosie sharing a meal in the meeting area. Rosie hadbrought the lunchbox, and the scene left Amanda in disbelief. Is this the lunchbox prepared by her?

The secretary was mortified and stammered, “1-I’m sorry. Mr. Winters. I couldn’t stop Miss Bailey Sheinsisted on barging…

He had earlier caught sight of Amanda entering. Moreover, he could also notice her visage contortedwith displeasure and her eyes simmering with fury. Hence, he glanced at the secretary and asserted.
