Chapter 237 Bringing Aiden to the Meeting

Elias frowned. "Is he wrong? Aren't you nasty?"

"You! How could you say that, Elias? If I'm nasty, you're even worse! Why would I be in this situation if it weren't for you? You said you'd help me look for Amelia, so, where is she? Huh? You're only good at making empty promises!" She discovered she could not win against the man in a tongue fight and would always end up speechless.

"It has only been a few days, and I haven't received a facial reconstruction. What is there to search for? If you're going to behave unreasonably, I have no time to entertain you." Once Elias was done, he headed for his desk and grabbed a document.

After that, he looked over and saw the child eating his snacks with crumbs all over his face. The scene made him smile. He grabbed a wet wipe and approached his son, helping him wipe away the leftover food from his face. "Aiden, let's stop eating. Come with me to the meeting."

"Elias, watch your words! Who's being unreasonable? You told me you would find Amelia!" Stephanie felt aggrieved but also wondered if she was being unreasonable. At some point in time, she seemed to have begun caring about Elias' feelings, which was strange. Why should I care about his feelings? Why should that sc*mbag's feelings be important to me?

She could not figure out that feeling.

Meanwhile, the man ignored her screams and carried his son with one arm before walking out the door. Aiden did not forget to make faces at her. "You nasty woman, don't you come near my daddy. My daddy likes my mommy and not you. My mommy is gentle and elegant. You're just an ugly and nasty woman."

Hearing that, Stephanie pointed at herself with wide eyes and scoffed. "Do I look like I need your dad to like me? Little brat, I'm telling you. I don't like your dad either! Also, who are you calling ugly? You're the ugly one!"

"Hmph!" The child snorted back.

She also childishly snorted, both unwilling to give in to the other. Feeling speechless, Elias used the document to pat his son's butt. "Aiden, stop messing around."

"Oh..." The child reverted to obedience and leaned against his father's broad shoulders.

On the other hand, Stephanie was about to burst from anger. In all her years, this was the first time she had been so infuriated by a three-year-old that she felt like exploding.

Elias brought his son to the meeting room, shocking all the executives. Questions filled everyone's mind, wondering what he was doing. Why did he bring a child to the meeting? Whose child was that? "Whose child is that? Could the rumors be true? Does Mr. Winters have an illegitimate child?"

"Duh. He's already brought the child to this meeting. Do you picture Mr. Winters as someone who likes children? Would he bring a child that isn't his to a meeting?" "Old Mr. Winters can rest in peace now. At least the Winters Family has an heir."

"You're right. Wasn't it Old Mr. Winters' wish for Mr. Winters to have children? Everyone in the country knew about that because he would urge Mr. Winters to have a child in every press interview he did." Everyone was busy whispering in each other's ears, discussing this matter, while only Jack remained silent and looked gloomy. He had not begun sending out the invitations yet because he wanted the engagement at the end of the month to be both a shock and a surprise.

However, Elias, that brat, had brought his son into the meeting room. What was the meaning of this? Was Elias trying to disgust him?

During the entire meeting, several kept casting curious glances at Aiden, who looked utterly similar to Elias, almost identical.

The kid behaved quite well during the two-hour-long meeting and stayed on his father's lap while holding his hand. After all, he was intimidated by all the people who were looking at him with strange gazes. Moreover, Elias had his secretary bring snacks and juice boxes to keep Aiden's lips sealed.

Once the meeting ended, the executives left the meeting room one after another. As for Aiden, he had fallen asleep in his father's embrace. Elias gently held his son in his arms and motioned for his secretary to bring a tarp to cover Aiden. Then, he prepared to leave as well. However, Jack suddenly called him.

"Elias, wait. I have something to say to you." His voice was loud, as though he deliberately did it to wake the child. Since only a few were in the spacious meeting room, they could hear the voice echoing. Feeling the child in his arms tremble, clearly startled by the voice, Elias frowned unhappily and passed him to Yacob. "Bring him to my office. I'll be back soon."

"Okay." Yacob gently took over the kid and left for the office. Even the way he walked seemed slower.

Elias watched until Yacob left the meeting room before feeling assured because Yacob was the only person he trusted with the child. Once his assistant was gone, he sat back on his seat, and his voice returned to its original volume. "Mr. Allegra, what's the matter?"

Jack felt upset seeing Elias doting dearly on his and Amanda's son. Doesn't that mean his and Steph's child in the future would get less love?

"Why did you bring the child here? Do you want everyone to know that you have a son? Will you value the child you have with Stephanie after she marries you?" His words were fueled with anger. He was eager to lose his temper but endured it for the sake of his daughter's marriage.

Elias maintained calm and replied, "Mr. Allegra, you must be mistaken. My ex-wife and I have agreed to raise our son together. He's mine for the weekend, and I have work today, so I can only bring him with me. After all, he's still young and can't be left alone."

"What do you mean I'm mistaken? How will you go on a date with Steph when you have a child with you? Can't you see I've already given you an opportunity here?"

Elias knew that, and he could even feel how much Jack wanted to send his daughter onto his bed so they could sleep together and get married quicker.

Smiling, he explained emotionlessly, "Mr. Allegra, I will return my kid home in the afternoon, so it will not disrupt your plans. Also, Stephanie is a kind woman, so she will understand me. Although this child was an accident, I have to be responsible for him."

"Be responsible for him? Then, who will be responsible for Steph? Will Steph's child have to fight for the inheritance?" Jack was most worried about that, but he had no idea Elias did not intend to marry Stephanie or even have a child with her.

"Mr. Allegra, you're overthinking this. My ex-wife and I have signed an agreement, so your concerns are redundant."
