Chapter 283 Why Did You Go to the Momsey Residence?

By now, Amanda was clear that Taylor would never donate his bone marrow and was

merely making a fool out of them.

Taylor roared with laughter upon seeing her ire. “Are you mad because of this? Weren’t

you willing to do anything for your child? You can’t even take this little bit of insult, so

don’t talk about having motherly. love. That’s what I’d expect of a woman that Elias liked.

You’re just like him-heartless and cold-blooded, all you do is pretend!” His eyes were filled

with indifference, and because he hated Elias, he hated everything that had to do with

that man.

“You know nothing! Have you been married? Are you a father? How can you say that we’re

pretending?” Eventually, she lost all her patience as she turned around and wanted to

leave.

Yet, he suddenly sprang to his feet and grabbed her shoulder. “I may not be married, and

neither do I have a child, but I have family, too. I’ve seen my family suffering with my own

eyes, and it’s all because of Elias! That’s why I want him to experience the pain I went

through. I want him to watch in vain as his family.

suffers!”

she jerked her head to the despicable Taylor and glared at the man with daggers in her

eyes, as though she wanted to shred him to pieces. Then, curiosity crept over her, and she

started to wonder exactly what kind of feud was hatched between him and Elias. A few

seconds passed by as she ferociously glared at him. before she slowly said, “Mr. Momsey,

I’ll ask you one last time. You’re not going to donate your bone marrow no matter what we

offer, are you?”

“That’s right. I won’t donate my bone marrow to Elias’ child. Never,” he said, making his

stance clear.

All her hopes were dashed, and she didn’t intend to waste her time here. Her tears slowly

streamed down her face. Then, she wiped them away and left without saying another

word.

Taylor didn’t move an inch as he stared at her back, a little impressed by her guts. First of

all, she dared to meet him alone. Secondly, instead of pestering him after he rejected her,

she decided to seek other options instead. To be more accurate, she had successfully

piqued his interest.

His eyes never left her retreating figure as he instructed his butler, Stefan, “Run a

background check on Elias ex-wife.” Even if Elias didn’t want to marry her back then, it

wasn’t an easy task to have Elias woman, and he needed to find out all the details.

“Okay, Mr. Momsey.”

Amanda climbed into her car with reddened eyes and received a call from the hospital

after she departed from Taylor’s abode. “Where are you, Mommy? Why aren’t you here

with me? I’m so bored.” In the call, Aiden sounded so sad and pitiful.

Her lips curled into a plastic smile as she faked a relaxed tone, saying, “I’m going to buy a

chocolate cake for you and will be back soon. Wait for me, okay?”

“Okay, Mommy. My nose was bleeding again earlier, and the nurse helped me to stop the

bleeding. I didn’t even cry. Aren’t I brave?”

Amanda’s heart fell into the pits. Was he bleeding from the nose again? What does this

mean? Panic overwhelmed her as she clutched her phone tightly. “Wait for me, Aiden. I’m

coming over right now,” she said and hung up before driving straight toward the hospital.

Amanda sped to the hospital and burst into the ward breathlessly, only to see that Elias

was reading at storybook to Aiden. When she pushed the door open, she happened to

hear Elias patiently telling Aiden. the story from the book.

Sweat broke out on her forehead as she gasped for air, and Aiden immediately saw her

from the bed, exclaiming in surprise, “Where’s my cake, Mommy?”

“Uh… I’m sorry but I forgot. I’ll buy it for you tomorrow, okay?”

Elias remained seated on the chair as he kept the storybook away. The moment he caught

sight of her disheveled state, he asked, “What were you doing? Did you cry?”

Aiden immediately forgot about his cake. “Why did you cry, Mommy? Why do you keep

crying in the past. few days? Was someone mean to you?” To him, it didn’t seem like Elias

was the one who was mean to her because he was always by his side the whole time. So,

he honestly couldn’t figure out just what was bothering her.

All of a sudden, Amanda didn’t know how she should explain herself, but Yacob happened

to return to the room. “Mr. Winters, that side- Right after he opened his mouth, he saw her

standing before his and couldn’t help but ask, “Miss Bailey, where did you go? Mr. Winters

has been looking for you.” When she remained silent, something dawned upon him, and

he gaped at her in surprise. “Did you really go to the Momsey Residence? You-”

“What? You went to the Momsey Residence?!” Elias sprang to his feet, anger all over his

handsome face.

Amanda shot Yacob a look with a scowl on her face, hinting at him to shut up. The latter

understood her message and Elias glanced at his son on the bed. Thus, he threw Yacob a

glance before leaving the ward. “Come out with me, both of you.”

“What are you guys doing. Mommy? I wanna come along, too!” On the bed, Aiden

bounced upright.

“Be good and stay here. We’re going out to discuss something”

“Oh… Okay.” Therefore, he continued flipping his storybook, not even bothering to conceal

the look of disappointment on his face.

Amanda and Yacob went outside the ward and found Elias standing there, danger lingering

in the air around him. When he heard their footsteps, he turned around and snapped at

Yacob, “Why did you tell her?” Then, he turned to Amanda and added, “Why did you go to

the Momsey Residence? I told you to leave this matter to me!”

“This has nothing to do with Yacob. I was the one who forced him to tell me because I was

anxious, but I didn’t know that things were that bad. Now, it looks like Mr. Momsey is

never going to donate his bone. marrow. Let’s look for a new donor. I don’t want to waste

my time on him, Amanda said resolutely.

Yacob hung his head without a word. He was well aware that he should keep his mouth

shut right now, or else he would be caught in the crossfire.

“You don’t have to worry about that. All you have to do is stay with Aiden. I have ways to

make Taylor agree to this,” Elias said and turned to Yacob. “Inform the doctor that we’ve

found a suitable donor and to prepare for the transplant next month.”

“Mr. Winters, this… Taylor is obviously not going to cooperate. Do you really think that

he’ll agree to your terms? What will you do if it doesn’t work out even when you force

him?”

“Just do as you’re told and stop asking questions! Do you think that I don’t have enough to

deal with?”

“Okay…” In the end, Yacob could only head for the doctor’s office, leaving Elias with

Amanda, who saw how frustrated the former was. She unconsciously clenched the hem of

her shirt in her anxiety.

He’s definitely very frustrated right now, she thought. There are a bunch of stuff to deal

with at the company and he still has to care about the transplant. How many issues can a

person juggle at one time? Elias had to go to work during the day and accompany Aiden in

the evening. Truth be told, she was afraid that this man would break down from

exhaustion.

“Are you sure you want to force Mr. Momsey’s hand? Isn’t this illegal? Your reputation will

be in tatters if he brings this to the court later.” Amanda was worried that Taylor would

seek revenge on Elias after the surgery if he was forced to donate his bone marrow.

Considering the disturbingly unhealthy amount of resentment he already harbored for

Elias, there was no doubt that his revenge would be bloody and cruel.
