Chapter 494 I Am Elias
Moon carefully observed the man standing before her. He was undeniably handsome, just as Amanda had described… He was almost unbelievably handsome.
Was this Amanda’s boyfriend?
Elias saw that the girl had been silent for quite some time, and he was growing impatient, so he asked, “Please speak up. Why did you keep mentioning my name? How do you know me?
Although he wasn’t particularly interested in why this girl knew him, he sensed that there
was more to it.
Upon being scolded in this manner, Moon snapped out of her thoughts but still maintained a submissive demeanor. “Um… May I ask if you are Mr. Elias Winters? Are you Elias Winters?”
She found it hard to believe, considering the dangerous circumstances surrounding this
matter.
Elias replied while suppressing his impatience. “Yes, I am Elias Winters. Why do you know my name? Please explain.”
“Great! I finally found you. I… I am here on behalf of Amanda Bailey. She mentioned that she thought she saw you earlier, but she needed to confirm. So, she asked me to find you. If 1 I found you, I was supposed to tell you that her name is Amanda Bailey, and she needs your help.”
Moon relayed everything Amanda had told her and felt a sense of relief as she did so.

“She’s in the restroom over there. I’ll take you there. Please save us. Those scoundrels want to force us into sleeping with men. I don’t want to…”

Elias furrowed his brows. “What are you looking for?”
“The man who was guarding us has disappeared.” Moon finished speaking and entered the
restroom.
Initially hesitant due to it being the women’s restroom, Elias disregarded that concern in his pursuit of saving Amanda.
He entered the restroom and found it empty. Amanda was gone?
“How could she disappear? Amanda said she would stall that man so I could find
you. How could this happen… Could they have discovered my escape?” Moon panicked and felt guilty.
“If they find out that Amanda helped me escape, will they mistreat her-” Elias abruptly turned and left the restroom before Moon could finish off her sentence.
Moon hurriedly followed while pleading with Elias. “Mr. Winters, please save me. I don’t want to be alone here. They will capture me and take me back!”
However, Elias paid her no attention. He didn’t even glance back as he said, “Follow me!”
Moon followed closely, afraid of being left behind, while also searching for Amanda’s.
presence.
Elias searched through all the rooms in that corridor, but he couldn’t find anyone. He turned back and asked Moon, who was trailing behind him, “Where do they usually keep you?”
Upon realizing that he had entered the wrong room, he turned around and left without giving the couple a chance to say anything else.
