Chapter 104 She Was Too Dumb
This man actually laid his hands on her-because of Grace. Even though his attitude toward
her was so terrible four years ago, he had never laid a hand on her.
Amanda’s emotions erupted in an instant. Tears welled up in her eyes, and her fists were
clenched tightly at her sides.
After Elias slapped her, he immediately regretted it. I actually hit Amanda…
“Amanda… I’m sorry. L
The man reached out to touch her cheek, but Amanda slapped his hand away. “Don’t
touch me!”
Elias had a severe headache. He slumped on the couch, his breathing becoming rapid. The
figure of the woman in front of him seemed blurred.
“Amanda, I’m sorry… But you really shouldn’t have ruined Grace’s face. You know how
important looks are to a woman…”
Before the man could finish his sentence, Amanda interrupted him again, “Elias! From now
on, we’re done! Neither of us should bother each other anymore! Since you don’t believe
me, then never come to find me again! I don’t need you! I never want to see you again! I
hate you! I loathe you!”
After saying that, Amanda turned around and left her office, slamming the door heavily.
The sound of the door slamming was like a heavy stone crashing into the man’s chest,
suffocating him and leaving his face as white as a sheet.
Elias leaned against the couch, wanting to get up and chase after her, but he had no
strength at all. He felt heavy and his head felt like it was about to explode.
Amanda walked out of the office in tears. The secretary, who was making a phone call,
immediately stood up upon seeing her. “Miss Bailey, what happened? What’s going on?”
The secretary had also noticed the red handprint on Amanda’s cheek. Was she slapped?
Did Mr. Winters do it?No way? How could that be?
The secretary’s heart burned with curiosity, and as Amanda headed toward the elevator,
she turned around and whispered to another secretary.
“What’s going on? How could Mr. Winters lay his hands on a woman? Did you see it? Miss
Bailey has a handprint on her face.

“I saw it, definitely. Miss Bailey came out crying too. These wealthy people are so
despicable. Did he make some inappropriate demands that Miss Bailey rejected?”
Just then, Simon walked over with a folder, preparing to discuss a case with Amanda.
Unexpectedly, he encountered the two secretaries gossiping.
Simon tapped the table with the folder. “Gossiping during work hours? Should I give you
both a day’s leave so you can find a cafe to chat?”
The two secretaries immediately straightened up, and one of them reported to Simon, “Mr.
Nicholson, it seems like Miss Bailey has been bullied.”
“What? Who dares to bully her? What happened?” Simon’s expression immediately
changed.
“Mr. Winters from Winters Enterprise came here. Miss Bailey went in for a while and then
came out crying. It seems she was slapped. We don’t know exactly what happened….”
“What?! Where is Amanda?” Simon couldn’t believe his ears. Elias actually laid his hands
on Amanda?
“I don’t know. She didn’t say anything when we asked her. She just left crying. On the
other hand, Mr. Winters is still in the office. He hasn’t come out yet”
As soon as the secretary finished speaking, Simon, full of anger, rushed into the office.
How could a man lay his hands on a woman?
Simon kicked open the office door and indeed saw the man sitting on the couch in the
reception
arca.
He charged forward, his voice filled with anger. “Elias! What do you think you’re doing
laying your hands on a woman? You…”
Simon approached the couch but was stunned by the scene in front of him.
Elias was slumped on the couch, unconscious. He had a pale face and a large pool of blood
around him…
How could this happen?
Simon truly hadn’t expected to witness such a scene. Could it be that his internal injuries
from the car accident hadn’t healed at all?
He tried to calm down for a few seconds, then immediately took out his phone and called
emergency services. If Elias continued to be unconscious here, his situation could really be
life- threatening.
As for what happened between him and Amanda, it would have to wait until Elias had
received emergency treatment at the hospital.

Meanwhile, Amanda cried all the way as she walked to the underground parking lot, which
was empty. She opened the car door, sat in the driver’s seat, and sobbed against the
steering wheel, overwhelmed with grievances.
I was wrong; I was truly wrong. I shouldn’t have harbored any illusions about that
scumbag. I even wanted to tell him about the child. I had been truly insane… Completely
insane.
Amanda changed her mind then, she would never, ever tell Elias about the existence of
the child.
A man like Elias, who couldn’t distinguish right from wrong, wasn’t worthy of having
custody of
the child.
As long as Elias still believed in Grace, the child wouldn’t have a good life in the Winters
Family. She wouldn’t allow her child to face the risk of being killed by Grace every day.
She no longer wanted any connection with Elias. She had been dumb during this time. To
be frank, she had been pitifully dumb to believe in someone like Elias!
From now on, she would keep a clear mind and never fall into Elias’ deceitful traps again.
Amanda hated herself the most! Every time Elias showed even a little kindness, she
couldn’t help but give the scumbag a chance in her heart. She was always thinking he
might really change for
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmthe better.
Sigh….
Reality had proven that she was just being delusional, to begin with!
A scumbag would always be a scumbag! Even if he faced all sorts of difficulties, he was
still complete scumbag who was not worthy of sympathy!
She didn’t know how long she had been in the parking lot until her car window was
suddenly knocked upon. At that moment, she snapped out of her messy thoughts.
Amanda rolled down the window and found that it was Simon.
She wiped away the tears on her face, not wanting Simon to see her in such a miserable
state.
Simon opened the car door and sat in the passenger seat, handing her a bottle of chilled
mineral water to apply on her face. “Apply this to your face; it’s not good for your child to
see you like
this.
Amanda paused for a moment, then took the bottle and pressed it against her cheek,
quickly reducing the swelling and relieving the pain.
She had forgotten that Aiden was smart and could immediately notice the handprint on
her face.

He would definitely ask incessant questions.
“I won’t ask what happened between you two. I know you don’t want to talk about it.
However, I want to tell you that when I went to your office just now, I saw him in a coma
and blood was all around him. I’ve already had him sent to the hospital.”
Although Simon couldn’t stand everything Elias did, he still truthfully reported the
situation.
A flicker of astonishment flashed in Amanda’s teary eyes, and then she spat out a harsh
curse, “Serves him right!”
“Does it still hurt?” Simon looked at her swollen cheeks and asked softly.
“It’s fine…”
Amanda looked at Simon’s mature and composed demeanor, realizing how much stronger
he was compared to the emotionally volatile Elias.
