Elias’ Crimes and Punishments of Romance

Amanda fell silent.

Is it a case of kidnapping? I doubt it. With Aiden right next to Symeon’s side, he’s practically being showered with affection to the point of being spoiled. Even if he wants the stars from the sky, Symeon would likely figure out a way to get them for him.

Amanda said, “When you investigate and find out the truth, or when you regain your memory, everything will become clear.”

Elias fell silent, fixing his gaze on her. “Then, let’s wait until I’ve thoroughly investigated the paternity test first.”

With that, he got up and prepared to leave the bedroom.

Suddenly, his phone rang. Elias picked up the call, and Rosie’s voice came through. “Eli, there’s a heavy rainstorm predicted tonight, and I’m terrified of thunder. Could I stay at your place for the night? Taylor is away on a business trip, and I’m really scared.”

He hesitated for a few seconds and then responded, “I’ll have the driver come pick you up.”

“Thank you, Eli!”

The room was so quiet that Amanda could hear each word of their conversation with utmost clarity.

Isn’t it an obvious scheme to stay overnight? Can’t Elias see through it?

She couldn’t hold back her anger. “Can’t you see that she’s doing it on purpose? She just wants to come over and sleep here! Scared of thunder? Even if Taylor isn’t at home, aren’t there other people in the Momsey Residence? Can they really let her stay all alone in such a huge villa?”

Even if the Momsey family members are not around, there are still servants and housekeepers!

Elias glanced at her indifferently. “So what if I can see through it? She was the first person I saw when I regained consciousness. Kindness deserves gratitude in return, and besides, there are plenty of rooms here. What’s the harm in letting her stay here?”

Having said that, he strode out of the bedroom.
