Chapter 449 Eli, I’m Begging You
“What’s good does apologizing to me do? Can it bring back Elias’ memories? I can’t hear to see him get triggered. No matter what I say to him. I have to be careful and think twice, but what about your sister? She provoked him deliberately, making him pass out and end up hospitalized once again. Are you sure Rosie truly loves Elias? Does loving someone mean wanting to see them in excruciating pain? Are you Momsey siblings mentally deranged or what?!
Amanda vented all her anger at Taylor and stormed off.
Taylor wanted to catch up with her, afraid that she might do something reckless in her current emotional state. However, she turned around and yelled at him. “Get lost! Don’t follow me!”
In the ward, Rosie tried to soothe Elias for a long time, but he still couldn’t calm down. Finally, a doctor came and administered a sedative injection, which eventually helped him quiet down.
She sat by the bedside, watching the man sleep peacefully. A smug smile crept onto her lips.
No matter how many slaps Rosie had received, she still wondered why the way Elias had hit Amanda for her earlier had been so cool.
It turned out that Elias could also stand up to other women for her.
This feeling was too blissful. She even wished to have this sense of happiness forever. However, to maintain this lasting sense of joy, she must get rid of Amanda. Otherwise, her current happiness will be undermined sooner or later.
“Eli, I am the one who loves you the most. You have to believe me.”
Suddenly, the door to the ward swung open.
Rosie turned her head with an annoyed expression, only to find her brother, Taylor, standing there.
She pressed her index finger to her lips to signal him to be quiet, then got up and pulled him to the corridor outside the ward, closing the door behind them.
“What are you doing, Taylor? Eli is sleeping. Don’t disturb him! He’s had a tough day!”
“So, you do know he’s tired. You know very well that he just experienced a major car accident. His injuries hadn’t healed properly, yet he left the hospital. Besides, he still has blood clots in his brain, so he can’t be triggered, and his emotions can’t fluctuate too much. Despite all this, you still made him hospitalized again, at last! Rosie, sometimes I question whether you truly love Elias or not. Do you love him so much. that you want to see him in agony?”
Taylor had listened to every word Amanda said. He wondered if his sister’s feelings for Elias were genuine love or mere possessiveness.
“What are you talking about. Taylor? How could I be the one who made Eli faint and be hospitalized. again? It was clearly because of Amanda!”
“Then, what exactly did you say to Elias? Why did he end up like this?” Taylor was genuinely curious. He had noticed that his sister became even gloomier after returning from the sanatorium.
“I didn’t say anything. I just showed him the evidence, and he reacted like that after seeing it.”

“What evidence?”
“Here, this is it. I found a paternity test report in the Winters Estate. Rosie handed the file folder to her brother.
Taylor received it with a skeptical look on his face. He pulled the paternity test report inside and quickly flipped to the last page. After reading the conclusive results, his eyes almost popped out of his head.
“How is this possible? That child is not Elias? How could the child that Amanda gave birth to not be his?”
What man can endure such humiliation? How could he not be furious? Taylor wondered as he stared at the paternity test report in disbelief.
Upon seeing her brother’s shocked expression, Rosie nodded innocently. “That’s right. I don’t want Elias to be deceived all this time. Maybe his car accident before was related to this paternity test.”
“So, are you saying that Elias found out that the child was not his, leading to a complete fallout with Amanda, and that’s why he had the car accident? Then, Amanda disappeared with the child. Now that Elias has amnesia, so that’s why she returned?”
“That’s how it seems for now. When we came to the hospital, there was no sign of Amanda at all.”
Taylor had nothing to say. He just couldn’t understand how Amanda could do such a foolish thing. Given
intelligence, it didn’t make sense for her to resort to such a crude scheme. How could she use someone else’s child to manipulate Elias? It was only a matter of time before it was exposed.
Taylor just couldn’t comprehend it. He was completely bewildered.
At this very moment, Amanda appeared alone in a nightclub, downing one glass of alcohol after another, attempting to drown her worries in alcohol..
“Miss, you really shouldn’t drink anymore. You’re already quite drunk.”
“I’m not drunk. Just pour me another drink. I will pay you, don’t worry.”
“This…”
“I said, pour me a drink!” Amanda shouted at the bartender, clearly already drunk.
The bartender had no choice but to pour her another glass of alcohol.
She gazed at the liquid in the glass, but the image of Elias slapping her came to her mind.
Huh… How ironic. The man she loved the most had slapped her across the face because of Rosie.
Even so, she still couldn’t bring herself to let Elias experience distress. She was really afraid that he might die from it..
“Elias, oh Elias, you’re so cruel to me. Whether it was four years ago or now, you’re so heartless….
She took a sip of the alcohol and muttered to herself, “Four years ago, you didn’t love me, so whatever you did to me was justified. But now, you claim to love me, yet you don’t remember anything. Not only that. you even want to teach me a lesson for another woman. Tell me, how can you be so cruel to me? Despite all this, I still can’t bear to hurt you.”
