Chapter 520


    Chapter 520 I Wasn’t Trying To Protect That Woman


    The air was tense. It seemed a fight was about to break out.


    Both of them were consumed by anger, and neither was willing topromise,


    “Answer my question first. If you won’t answer, why should I?” Amanda didn’t want to indulge. him and


    his bad habits, especially now that he had regained his memory. There was no need. for pretense


    anymore.


    Elias clenched his fists tightly, struggling to maintain control. It looked as if he would confront Symeon


    and teach him a lesson for daring to seduce his woman in the next


    moment.


    Suppressing his anger, he said in a deep voice, “Fine, I’ll tell you. I wasn’t trying to protect. that woman.


    I don’t even know her. Everything I did was to oppose Symeon because I saw him mistreating her. I


    decided to mess with him, that’s all.”


    Trying to rid himself of any doubt, huh? Amanda couldn’t help but let out a sneer.


    “What are youughing at? Don’t you believe me?” Elias felt uneasy witnessing her mockingughter.


    He disliked Amanda treating him like this.


    They were husband and wife, so why was Amanda always siding with Symeon?


    Amanda looked at the man standing by the bed. “Do you think I would believe what you said? When


    did you, Elias Winters, be sopassionate and just? I never knew you had such virtue in you


    before.”


    “Whether you believe it or not, it’s the truth. And what about you? Why did you look for him? Could it be


    that you truly have feelings for him?” Elias became consumed with jealousy at the thought of Amanda


    staying by Symeon’s side with their child while he was. unconscious. There was a possibility that they


    might develop feelings for each other, and he couldn’t bear it.


    He would never allow his woman to have feelings for that perverted Symeon!


    “Since I don’t believe a single word of what you said, I don’t see the need to answer your question.”


    Amanda stood up and prepared to leave the bedroom.


    As she passed by the man, he grabbed her hand and asked, “Where are you going?”


    “Once we can be honest with each other, then we can share a bed again.” After saying that, Amanda


    shook off his hand and was about to leave.


    Elias was genuinely furious. He couldn’t bear it any longer and shouted at her retreating


    figure, “Why won’t you believe what I said? It’s the truth! If you don’t believe me, ask that woman! She


    was being choked by Symeon, almost dying. Could I just stand by and do nothing?”


    “With Symeon’s personality, he cares more about his reputation than anything else. How could he


    possibly choke a woman at a party? Come up with a believable lie, will you? If you say Symeon was


    flirting with that woman, I might believe it.”


    After saying that, Amanda left the bedroom without looking back.


    Elias looked at her departing figure in disbelief. “Amanda! Who are you married to, huh? How well do


    you know that scoundrel? What makes you think he wouldn’t do such a thing?”


    Amanda ignored him and walked toward the staircase.


    The man caught up with her, gripping her delicate shoulders. I’m talking to you! Answer me!”


    “Stop being unreasonable!” She felt that Elias was deliberately changing the subject, diverting her


    attention.


    “Who are you calling unreasonable? Do you think I’m being unreasonable now? Then, who do you


    think is the perfect man in your eyes? That scoundrel?”


    Elias was now blinded by jealousy, wishing he could kill Symeon for sowing discord between him and


    his wife.


    “Let me go!”

    “I won’t let go! Tell me, why did you go looking for Symeon on your own? Did you realize you fell for him


    only after you returned to me? Did you develop feelings for him during your time in Esmos?”


    Elias tightly held Amanda’s shoulders, staring into her eyes, hoping to find a clue.


    Amanda turned her head away. “Elias, you’re not thinking straight right now. Let’s talk again once


    you’ve calmed down. I’m tired. I need to sleep.”


    “Amanda! Have you learned to keep things from me now? I’m your husband. Why are you treating me


    like this?”


    The man’s anger was evident, looking to erupt any moment now. But he had to restrain his temper


    because the person in front of him was the woman he loved.


    “And what about you? Aren’t you also hiding things from me? You regained your memory a long time


    ago but never bothered to tell me. You just want to see me anxious and spend all my time around you.


    Do you find it satisfying?”


    r


    Amanda vented all her frustrations.


    The man was slightly taken aback. “You noticed?”


    “Surprising, isn’t it? Did you think I would never find out? You thought you could tell me when you felt


    like it, and I would be deeply moved?”


    “You misunderstand, I didn’t mean that! I’ve only recently regained some memories, and there are still


    many fragmented things I can’t remember. I just wanted to wait until 1 fully regained my memories


    before telling you”


    Before the man could finish speaking, Amanda ruthlessly interrupted him, “Enough, don’t exin


    anymore. I don’t want to hear it. At the end of the day, after you lost your memory, you started to


    distance yourself from me emotionally. You have to admit that you don’t trust me as much anymore.”


    “How can I trust you if you don’t tell me?” Elias was on the verge of copse. Why is it so difficult to


    communicate with women?


    “I said, let’s talk again once you’ve calmed down.”


    Amanda removed the man’s hand from her shoulder and went downstairs.


    This time, Elias didn’t chase after her. Not because he didn’t want to, but because he felt dizzy, and his


    head was beginning to throb.


    It had been many days since he had a headache after returning to the country, but now it was


    happening again. He had a hard time steadying his feet as well.


    cing one hand against the corridor wall, he watched Amanda’s figüre descend the stairs. step by


    step. Forget it. I’ll talk to her again after tonight.


    No matter what he said now, Amanda would not want to listen. He didn’t have the energy to exin


    anymore.


    Amanda went to the garden alone and felt a sense of loss when she realized the man didn’t continue


    chasing after her.


    What’s wrong


    with me? She didn’t want to get angry at Elias just now, but she couldn’t control her temper. Justst


    night, they were being so intimate and affectionate to each other. How did they be enemies now?


    Suddenly, she heard some movement from the garage. She nced over and saw Elias driving a


    sports car out.


    O


    T


    She felt even worse now, a suffocating sensation in her heart.


    He actually drove away.


    Tears uncontrobly welled up in Amanda’s eyes. She didn’t want Elias to leave, but she couldn’t bring


    herself to reconcile with him.
