    Chapter 91 Are You Trying to Tell Me How to Do My Job?


    Seizing the opportunity, Elias tentatively asked, “How long did you stay that night? Why didn’t I see you


    when I woke up?”


    He simply wanted an exnation for why he found Grace by his side instead of Amanda upon


    awakening.


    Impatiently, Amanda replied, “I received a phone call about my critically ill mother, so I had to leave


    early.”


    “So, you left while I was still unconscious?” Elias memory started piecing together the puzzle. A few


    days after the celebration banquet. Amanda’s mother passed away and she asked for his assistance in


    organizing the funeral.


    Suddenly, it all clicked into ce.


    That was the reason.


    At that very moment, Amanda’s phone rang. It was a call from Aiden.


    She nced at it but didn’t dare to answer in front of Elias, so she ended the call.


    “I don’t have time to discuss this with you. I have things to take care of. I’m heading back.” Amanda


    nced at the time, realizing she needed to hurry home to check on the little brat, or he would pester


    her relentlessly on the phone.


    With that, she made her way back to her car and drove off toward Gxy Bay


    Elias stood alone beneath the streetlights, deep in thought. Can it be that Grace had been deceiving


    me?


    Honk, honk!


    Amanda pressed the car horn twice and directed her words to the man standing outside the car


    window. “Get back to the hospital quickly! If you don’t, I won’t answer your calls ever again, and you


    can forget about me unblocking you!”


    With those words, she drove off, leaving the man behind.


    Elias chuckled softly. Despite Amanda’s stern words, he understood her underlying concern.


    It was evident that she still cared for him.


    As Amanda arrived back at the vi, she was immediately greeted by a whirlwind of joy as she stepped


    into the living room.


    “Mommy! Mommy!”


    “Aiden, are you trying to knock me over? Why have you be so heavytely?” Amanda’s body


    stumbled backward from the impact, but she managed to catch the little bundle in her arms wlessly.


    “Well, I’m a man, Mommy. It’s only natural that I keep getting heavier.”


    Chapter 91 Are You Trying to Tell Me How to Do My Job?


    She couldn’t help but burst intoughter. What a delightfully innocent perspective!


    “Mommy! Mommy, let me tell you how amazing Miss Selina is. She knows Taekwondo! I want to learn it


    too, so I can protect you!” Aiden’s chubby hands formed a circle around her ear as he leaned in and


    whispered excitedly.


    “What do you mean you can protect me? I’m strong too, you know. Do you like the new nanny?”


    Amanda’s mood brightened as well. This little brat seemed to be getting along well with the new


    caregiver.


    Suddenly, a woman’s voice interrupted their conversation. “Hello, I’m Selina Yaleman,” the woman


    introduced herself and Amanda looked up, frozen in ce.


    Selina was equally stunned after seeing Amanda’s face.


    “Selina? What a coincidence that it’s you!”


    At that moment, memories flooded back to Amanda, taking her back to her childhood when her father


    hadn’t yet kicked her and her mother out of the house. They used to live in a vibrant alleyway, filled with


    laughter and the lingering scent of smoke.


    Every day, she would y hopscotch with her best friend, Selina. However, after her father kicked them


    out, Amanda never saw Selina again.


    Selina was also overwhelmed with astonishment. “Oh, my goodness, Amanda! I never expected to see


    you here. I thought I would nevery eyes on you again in this lifetime.”


    To Amanda’s surprise, the caregiver assigned to her by the domestic service center turned out to be


    her long-lost childhood friend.


    This brought her great relief. She could now confidently leave Aiden in the care of her childhood friend,


    knowing that he was in good hands.


    Amanda couldn’t help butugh from the bottom of her heart. “Me too!”


    “Amanda, you’ve blossomed into such a beauty and you’re living in such a luxurious house. Did you


    marry a rich guy? And look at this adorable baby of yours. You’re definitely winning at life! Selina


    commented, her eyes filled with a mixture of admiration and envy. They used to be childhood


    ymates, but she never anticipated such divergent paths in their lives.


    Amanda’s expression turned slightly awkward. “It’s a long story. I’ll fill you in gradually. It’s not exactly


    what you imagine.”


    The following day, Elias’ car came to a gentle halt outside the cemetery as the rain drizzled incessantly.


    Yacob held a ck umbre and opened the car door. Elias, with his tall figure, stepped out and made


    his way toward the cemetery.


    His gait was slow and somewhat feeble, clearly indicating that his wounds hadn’t fully healed. The


    gloomy weather further exacerbated his difort.


    With the umbre in hand, Yacob walked behind him and said, “Mr. Winters, let’s return to the hospital


    in the afternoon. If Old Mr. Winters finds out you left without permission, he’ll surely start lecturing


    again.”


    ??

    Howard remained oblivious to Elias unsanctioned departure from the hospital. If he were to discover it.


    his temper would surely reach its boiling point.


    “Are you trying to tell me how to do my job?” Elias shot him a cold nce.


    Yacob bowed his head in resignation. “No”


    As they gradually approached Yn’s tombstone, they noticed Grace standing in front of it from a


    dozen


    meters away


    Both of them stopped in their tracks and didn’t move forward.


    Standing before the tombstone was Grace with a ck umbre in her hand. Tears cascaded down her


    face as she fixed her gaze upon her brother’s photo engraved on the stone. She continuously brushed


    away the tears, unable to contain her sorrow


    Out of the corner of her eye, she caught a glimpse of Elias figure, which made her cry even harder.


    cing the bouquet of flowers she held before the tombstone, she gently touched her brother’s photo.


    “Yn. I’vee to visit you. I’ve been so upiedtely and haven’t been here for a while. You won’t


    hold it against me, will you?”


    Ever since Grace entered the entertainment industry, her first lesson was acting. She didn’t want to


    embarrass herself in front of Elias, who had provided her with opportunities in film and television.


    Although she possessed a talent for acting, her poprity struggled to soar despite being recognized


    for her exceptional acting skills.


    “Yn, Elias had a car ident. It happened on his birthday. Are you punishing him for me? I beg you,


    Yn, please don’t hurt him. My hurting myself had nothing to do with him. I truly love him. If anything


    happens to him. I won’t be able to go on. I beg you. Yn. Even if he doesn’t believe me, doesn’t like


    me. or wants to abandon me. I don’t want to see him get hurt because I really like him.”


    Grace put on a convincing disy of sincerity that could deceive anyone.


    The raindrops gradually grewrger, sttering into droplets on the ground.


    Standing behind Elias, Yacob was deeply moved as he listened to Grace’s heartfelt words.


    Elias stared at her figure with an emotionless expression for a long while. Eventually, he didn’t


    approach her but turned away and left the cemetery.


    Yacob was momentarily stunned and almost couldn’t keep up with Elias footsteps, causing thetter to


    get drenched in the rain.

    Meanwhile, as Grace remained kneeling before the tombstone, she watched Elias’ retreating figure. A


    faint smile appeared on her lips, while tears continued to flow down her cheeks, giving her a somewhat


    eerie feeling


    She raised the umbre slightly and watched the tall and handsome figure of Elias. Under her breath,


    she whispered, “I don’t believe that you have a heart of st
