Chapter 424 Rosie’s Evil Plan
“Alright, I heard you. Now, you may excuse yourself. I’d like to have some rest,” Elias said as he lay down, showing no interest in entertaining the two people in front of him.
In the meantime, Elias’ bodyguard wanted to say something, but when he noticed Elias’ tired look, he obediently left as he was told. Nevertheless, Rosie seemed reluctant to leave, so the bodyguard whispered in her ear and said, “Let’s go, Miss Momsey. Mr. Winters would like to rest.”
“Leave first. I’ll catch up later.”
Elias’ bodyguard didn’t say anything in response as he turned around and left the ward. Now that she was finally alone with Elias, Rosie stood there and set her eyes on the side of the man’s face. “The doctor said. you could have some congee tomorrow. So, maybe I’ll make some for you in the morning and bring it
over.”
Meanwhile, Elias looked at Rosie, tempted to turn her offer down, but when she told him that she was his woman, he felt sympathetic for her. “What’s your name?”
Rosie chuckled in amusement. “Rosie Momsey.” This is fate giving me a second chance. I must seize the opportunity and become the woman Elias wants. I must have his heart! “Alright, I should make a move now. See you tomorrow. Rest well,” she said and left the ward.
Upon hearing the sound of the door closing. Elias frowned with a scowl on his face. Deep down, the voice that kept telling him to look for someone still remained, yet he couldn’t remember who he was supposed to find. Nevertheless, the more he tried to think about it, the more his headache hurt.
In the meantime, Elias’ bodyguard was calling Yacob to inform him that Elias. Winters had woken up, but the call couldn’t get through. “What’s going on? Why can’t my call get through?”
At that moment, Rosie walked out of the ward and happened to see what Elias’ bodyguard was doing, which made her anxious the next second. If Yacob learns about this, he may rush back and expose me.
On the other hand, the bodyguard was helpless after failing to reach Yacob. Thus, he turned around and saw Rosie behind him, greeting her. “Miss Momsey.”
“What’s wrong? You can’t reach Yacob?” Rosie faked a smile.
“Yeah, Yacob never misses a phone call. There must be something going on over there, but I guess he’ll reply to me when he sees it.”
“I see. Anyway, I’ll make a move first while you stay here and look after him.” As soon as Rosie turned around, the smile on her face instantly disappeared. I will make sure nothing stands between me and Eli! I will do anything it takes to get rid of anyone who gets in my way.
When Rosie returned to the Momsey Residence later, she approached the butler and asked, “Where is my
–brother?”
“He is in the gym, Miss Momsey.”
Rosie then went straight to the gym and saw her brother there. At that moment, Taylor was seen running on the treadmill, shirtless and sweaty, while giving off a sexy and manly aura.
“Give me a moment, Taylor. Pause your workout as I have something to discuss with you.”

Nevertheless, Taylor didn’t even bother to look at his sister and replied, “Every time you come to me, it’s definitely for nothing good. You either bug me to help you arrange a date with Elias or want me to be the matchmaker for the two of you. Let me be honest with you-stop coming to me for this nonsense again because I won’t help you anymore.” Taylor was tired of Rosie’s obsession with love, as if she had nothing else better to do. Also, he was not happy with the fact that Rosie was so obsessed with Elias that she became unwilling to open herself up to other opportunities.
Rosie responded by forcefully pulling Taylor off the treadmill. “No, it’s not that. I want you to keep someone distracted for me.”
“Who’s that?” Taylor picked up his towel and wiped the sweat off his forehead.
Rosie leaned close to Taylor’s ear and whispered a few words, whereupon Taylor frowned in puzzlement.
The next morning, the bodyguard, who was still standing guard outside the ward, almost fell asleep. Soon, Rosie arrived at the ward with a thermal flask in her hand, gently patting the sleepy bodyguard’s shoulder.
It was then that the bodyguard immediately snapped out of his sleepiness and stood up straight. When he saw Rosie, he heaved a sigh of relief and said, “I’m sorry that I dozed off, Miss Momsey.”
“It’s okay. I’ll head inside and get this congee for Eli. Meanwhile, you should get refreshed and buy yourself breakfast. See you later.”
“Thanks, Miss Momsey, but I don’t think I need…”
As the bodyguard was about to refuse, Rosie smiled and said, “You should go. I wish you could see yourself drooling just now. Imagine if Eli saw that?
It was then that the bodyguard instinctively felt the corner of his mouth and embarrassedly smiled, nodding his head. Upon seeing Rosie enter the ward, the bodyguard made his way to the restroom, but as soon as he walked right through the door, he was suddenly ambushed by a man in black who covered his mouth with a handkerchief. Before he knew what was going on, his vision slowly became blurred just as
he lost consciousness.
Meanwhile, Rosie entered the ward and saw Elias still asleep, whereupon she gently placed the thermos on the cabinet. Not long after that, she received a text message on her phone, whereupon she took a quick look at it. ‘Okay,’ the message read. The next second, an evil smile appeared on her face. Indicating that she had just gained control over the situation in the ward.
At that moment, Elias opened his eyes and saw Rosie looking at him. In response to the man’s pitch-black eyes that were staring at her, Rosie couldn’t help but feel a little panicky on the inside.
“Eli, you’re up. Are you hungry? Have some congee, would you? You haven’t eaten anything for quite some time.” Rosie spoke while pouring the congee into a bowl before she was going to feed Elias.
Nevertheless, Elias sat up straight and took the bowl from Rosie’s hands, speaking in a deep voice. “You may leave now. I can manage everything by myself.” For some reason, he seemed reluctant to be in the same space with Rosie, but nonetheless, the lady didn’t object to that as she obediently turned around and
left.
“Rest well once you’re done eating. For the next two days, you’re only going to have congee.” After saying that, Rosie closed the door behind her when she exited the ward. She was then greeted by another bodyguard who was no longer the same man Yacob arranged to be there. Instead, it was someone from the Momsey Family. “Miss Momsey.”
