Chapter 535 Postpartum Depression

"I'm not late, am I?" Standing at the door, Lionel smiled and looked at Amanda.

Surprised, Amanda asked Gregorio, "Did you ask him to come here?"

"You won't mind, will you?" Lionel asked.

Amanda was confused.

Gregorio explained, "Amanda, you don't have to be afraid of trouble. It's me who asked him to come. After the matter that I helped you hide in J Country last time was exposed, he warned me sternly that if anything happens to you again, don't let me make decisions without his agreement.

Looking at Lionel, Amanda] said, "I know you care about me, but I don't want you to get involved too deeply in these things."

Sitting opposite her, Lionel asked slowly, "Why? You would rather bother an irrelevant person than let me know? What do I mean to you? An old friend who is no longer meaningful? Is that right?"

"I think the person you really should be responsible for is Josie. You are the one who is really responsible for her. I don't know what will happen to me, but I don't want to do something bad to Josie. I don't want her to get hurt because of me," Amanda said.

Of course she knew that although the past had become a smoke, Lionel would help her whatever she wanted to do.

But the responsibility of Lionel was not her. As a husband, he had the obligation, and also the responsibility to take good care of his wife.

Seeing that Amanda alienated him, Lionel was a little dissatisfied.

He was indeed called here by Gregorio, but not to interfere in this matter, nor to play along with Gregorio. Because before Gregorio started the plan, he made a rule with Gregorio that he must let him know the contact between Gregorio and Amanda, so that he could make sure that Amanda would not be secretly taken away by Gregorio.

Even if Gregorio wanted to win Amanda's heart with this, he had to be fair and not take advantage of her.

What Lionel cared about was the happiness of Amanda alone. To be honest,

Drugged one night by her ex-boyfriend, a mysterious man took advantage of her in an ecstatic night filled with sex.

To take her revenge, she married the man, and used him.

"As long as I'm alive, I'm still his legal wife, while all of you are just his mistresses."

She remained adamant even when he was involved in scandals with other women.

Eventually she stormed off after she learned that he had betrayed her again.But life brought her back to him a few years later, to his astonishment.

that Amanda came back to play with the children, Nora said courteously.

"Really?" Amanda looked at the baby in her arms gently. At this moment, Christine was staring at Amanda with her big eyes. When Amanda touched her soft hair, she calmed down immediately.

Jacob came in and said, "Mom, why didn't you buy anything when you went shopping? You didn't buy the jelly I wanted."

"There are so many things that I forgot. How about I take you with me next time?" Amanda smiled sheepishly. She could only find an excuse to refuse, because she didn't go shopping at all.

Jacob looked at her suspiciously. He felt that his mother was a little distracted.

He had planned to go to the company with his father. After the morning meeting with Darren, Jacob thought of his unfinished work and wanted to come back first to make it up. But he didn't expect to see his clumsy mother when he came back.

"These days..." Jacob suddenly said.

"What?" Amanda's heart trembled with fear as she heard his words. Was it so obvious that Jacob could see that she had hidden a lot of secrets?

Jacob said slowly, "You don't look very happy these days. I've learned that postpartum depression is common for pregnant women. You may have a long time to suffer that. Do you want to go out and relax?"
