Chapter 282 I’m Elias’ Ex-Wife

Outside of the Momsey Residence, Yacob tagged behind Elias. “Mr. Elias, what are your

plans now? It doesn’t seem like Taylor will help us out willingly.”

This situation was exactly what he expected. Back then, Elias had ignored Taylor when was

outside the Winters Residence for hours, begging to meet him so he could save his sister.

So, it was only to be expected that Taylor would spurn Elias now and refuse to donate his

bone marrow.

Elias walked toward the car with a stoic expression on his face and said coldly, “I’ll do it by

force, then. I could care less about everything else. All I want is for my son to be safe and

healthy.”

Yacob said no more. Given his understanding of Elias’ personality, he knew that he was

capable of something like that. It would be best if Taylor would give his consent to donate

his bone marrow because Taylor would be forced to if he remained unwilling. However,

unbeknownst to them, Amanda arrived at Taylor’s place after they had hopped into their

car. Yacob had almost forgotten about her after giving her Taylor’s address. Initially, he

thought she would accompany them to meet Taylor. Thus, he didn’t that she would come

later.

Amanda pressed the doorbell by the large entrance, and the butler promptly came to

answer the door. “Whom are you looking for, madam?”

“Uh… 1. For a moment, she didn’t know what she should say because she couldn’t simply

tell him that she was here to beg Taylor for his bone marrow. On the other hand, she

wondered whether Elias was still here. Maybe he’s still inside…

She cleared her throat and said, “I’m Elias Winters’ ex-wife and here to look for him. He

told me that he’s here.

A knot appeared between the butler’s brows as he looked at her from head to toe. “Are

you Mr. Winters” ex-wife? Mr. Winters just left a minute ago.”

“He left already?” That was quick, or maybe I came a little late.

Disappointed at the turn of events, she twirled around and wanted to leave when the

butler stopped her. “Wait a minute. Let me inform Mr. Momsey. Somehow, he had a feeling

that she was useful to Taylor. Hence, after Amanda waited outside the door for about ten

minutes, he came trotting back. “Please come in, madam. Mr. Momsey would like to meet

you.”

The person with the matching bone marrow that Yacob mentioned is probably this Mr.

Momsey, she thought, her eyes lighting up with a glimmer of hope. “Great!” She wanted

to meet him as well to ask him to donate his bone marrow, and hopefully, she could

convince this stranger. Alas, he was an enemy of Elias. Just the thought of this made this

seem like an impossible task.

The butler led her to the spot where Elias stood earlier-the same dog room. As Amanda

stood there, she couldn’t help but notice dog toys and other assortments strewn

everywhere. Is this a room made for dogs?

“Where is Mr. Momsey?” she inquired.

The butler took a look behind her. “He’s here. Right behind you.”

Slowly, she spun around and the first thing she saw was the fierce Dogo Argentino, which

gave her a fright. and she jumped a couple of steps backward because she was terrified of

dogs. Meanwhile, the dog barked loudly at her a few times the instant she met its gaze,

and she trembled in fear.

Amused by her reaction, Taylor laughed and stroked his beloved dog. “Pudding, don’t

frighten this pretty lady. Go on and play over there while I speak with her.”

Hence, the dog turned and trotted off into a different corner, and Amanda breathed a sigh

of relief at the sight, her tightly wrung nerves relaxed.

Taylor took a seat on the couch, his eyes glued on the woman in front of him as he gave

her a once-over. Elias wouldn’t fall for his sister, Rosie, no matter what she did but had a

child with this woman. Was this the type of woman he liked? What type of woman is she?

he wondered.

While he was silently judging her and trying to guess her personality, she opened her

mouth and said, “Hello, Mr. Momsey. I’m Amanda Bailey.”

“Did you say that you’re Elias’ ex-wife? So, are you the mother of that child who needs a

bone marrow transplant?” Taylor’s voice had a tinge of doubt because Amanda looked

nothing like a mother. Instead, she looked a little childlike, more like a young girl who had

just started joining the workforce.

Amanda nodded. “Yes, I’m the mother of that child. Are you the match for his bone

marrow, Mr. Momsey?”,

“Yes, I’m the one, but I have no plans of donating my bone marrow.”

The smile that just appeared on her face turned stiff right away. Although she already

expected this, she mustered her courage and said, “I know that there’s a personal feud

between you and Elias, but the child is innocent and he’s only three years old. It isn’t easy

for him to find a match and I really don’t want to miss this opportunity. I hope you’ll

reconsider and donate your bone marrow. I’m begging you. No matter what conditions you

come up with, I’ll agree to it. As long as you name it, I’ll get it done.”

He burst into laughter at her words. “You sure sound like his ex-wife, even the things you

said are as sickening as his. You said any condition, eh? What about spending the night

with me? Will you do that?”

She was rendered speechless by his daring and was certain that he was saying this on

purpose to spite her. Thus, she held back the revulsion she was feeling as she said with a

forced smile, “Mr. Momsey, a divorced woman like me isn’t good enough for a fine

gentleman like you. Why don’t you name another condition?

“Tsk… Didn’t you just say that you’ll agree to any condition? How can you say that you’ll

get anything that I said done when you can’t even do such a simple request? What are

you doing? You’re the one asking me for help but expect me to compromise instead. Every

word he said was filled with sarcasm and deep

hatred.

“Are you serious, Mr. Momsey?”

“Of course, I am. Why don’t you tell me how you managed to seduce Elias back then that

he married you. and even had a child with you? After that, why did he divorce and dump

you in the end?” He was rather curious about this because he wanted to know why the

heartless Elias would marry, have a child, and then divorce the woman before him.

So, she stood rooted to the spot as she answered humbly, “I didn’t seduce him. We were

married upon our parents’ orders, and he didn’t want to marry me, but he couldn’t defy

his grandfather, and that’s why we divorced soon afterward. After the divorce, I found out

that I was pregnant. So, he didn’t know about the child.”

Taylor was almost fascinated with her story and stared at her with a straight face, sighing.

“Phew… You’re a strong woman, aren’t you? All alone, you had the guts to give birth to a

baby, and Elias’ child at that. Yet, the child is suffering from this illness now. Do you know

what this is? It’s retribution! Why did you give birth to his child? A person like him isn’t fit

to have one and this is a reminder from the universe. I think

you shouldn’t waste your efforts and just let the child die. Will he be happy to be that

sc”mbag’s child? No. he won’t, and only no end of miserable experiences aware him.”

“You shut your mouth, or I’ll shut it for you! Finally. Amanda couldn’t take it anymore, and

it was all she could do to stop herself from ripping his mouth of
