Chapter 301
Chapter 301 Never Do That Again
“You’re taking the long route. There’s a simpler way to prove she’s not insane,” said
Amanda’s eyes went wide. “What is it? Tell me!” She didn’t want to stay at the Momsey Residence
anymore. She was only doing it for her son’s bone marrow transnt.
“Easy. I’ll confront Rosie. I’m the reason she went mad, right
“You have a point, but what if she is actually mad? If you show up, it might make things worse.”
Elias sneered and looked at the bathroom door. “If she’s not mad, then I bet she’s eavesdropping right
now. If she knows we are trying to prove she’s not mad, then, well, she’s not mad, is she?”
Amanda looked at the bathroom door, and she shivered. Just the thought of Rosie outside listening in
spooked her. She approached the door and hesitated for a few moments, then she swung the door
open, but there was no one outside. She then looked at the bed, and Rosie was still there, sleeping
soundly.
Elias and Amanda went back into the room and looked at the sleeping Rosie. Sounds of footsteps
came from outside, causing panic to sh in Amanda’s eyes. She then looked at Elias. “Hide in the
garden. I’ll be there in a bit.”
Elias nodded and darted out the window, disappearing in a sh.
The bedroom door creaked open, and Amanda looked at it nervously. Taylor came in, and Amanda
reflexively looked out the window to notice that Elias was gone.
She heaved a sigh of relief.
Curious that she was so nervous, Taylor asked, “Why are you so nervous? It’s just me.”

“That’s
‘s exactly why I was nervous. It’s the dead of the night. Are you here to keep an eye on me? Worried I
might torture your sister in her sleep?” Amanda snapped impatiently and plopped down on the couch.
Just passing by, so I wanted to check. What’s with the temper? Taylor found it odd that she was so
mad. This was his house. He had the right to check on things, but since Amanda wasn’t keen on talking
to him. he left thereafter and closed the door right after he checked on his sleeping sister.
After he was gone, Amanda came to the bed and nudged Rosie, but she didn’t move. She then tiptoed
out of the bedroom and closed the door.
Amanda had been searching for Elias in the garden for a while, but she still couldn’t find him. She
couldn’t call out to him either, or the Momseys might be rmed. In the end, she meowed in an attempt
to get
Elias’ attention.
From the bushes, Elias said, “Here.”
She whirled around and darted into the bush. They then huddled closer and spoke in a whisper.
I heard that Rosie is involved with one of the maids’ deaths. Maybe that’s how she went mad.”
Amanda was taken aback for a moment, then she snapped out of it. “Yes. Her name was Maria. Rosie
pushed her down the stairs when she had an episode, and she became insane after that.”
“So that means I’m not the reason she went mad. The whole thing started because shemitted
manughter,” said Elias shrewdly.
Amanda nodded. “I think she’s faking insanity to get out of jail,”
“Okay, then this just made things easier for us. We’ll get the maid to prove that she’s not mad,” said
Elias calmly.
“But she’s de-” Realization struck Amanda, and her eyes went wide. “You can’t mean…”
“That’s exactly what I mean. A bit of jolt to her head should knock some sanity back into her.”
She was a little hesitant. “That’s… Wow. She might be mad for real, you know. What if this makes
things. worse?”
“Things are already bad enough. How much worse can it get? If we don’t do this, she’s either going to
live her life out as a madwoman, or she’s going to get back at us sooner orter.”
Elias realized that Rosie was a hazard. If he couldn’t deal with her well, she might drag everyone down
to hell. Even before going to the rehab center, Rosie never did let go of her obsession with him. If she
were to regain her sanity one day, she woulde to him right away.
If Elias had a happy family of his own, then that woman would stop at nothing to destroy it, so he
wanted to deal with her once and for all.
Even though he said nothing, the look on his face told Amanda that he was nning something. He
was a smart man, and she could never see through him.
“I’ll be going now. See you tomorrow,” said Elias.
“So, you’re going with my n as well?” She thought Elias would object to it.
Elias looked into her eyes. “I’m taking you away tomorrow. Just bear with it one more night. Do not get
near Rosie. Stay far away from her, and take this.”
She looked at the thing he was holding, confused. What is this? “Is this a taser?”
“Correct. If she tries to get near you, tase her. And lock your door at night. Do not let Taylor in,” said
Elias.
“How did you know he’de into my room at night? That’s a good guess. Taylor does suddenlye
into my roomte at night.
Elias’ face fell. “I see he has done it before. Hold on to this taser. If anyone tries toe near you, tase
them. And take my phone. I don’t want you to go dark again, alright?” He had had enough of theck of
news from Amanda. The loss of contact almost drove him mad and the search alone was hell..
“I know.” Touched for some reason, Amanda nodded.
“I can’t stay for long. I need to go back to Aiden. He wouldn’t stop crying when you were gone. I have to
take you away tomorrow. He can’t be separated from his mother right now.”
Amanda felt for her son, and tears glistened in her eyes. “Is he alright? Has he been taking his
medications?” She was worried her son might ask for her, so she had been trying to distract herself.
Every time she thought about Aiden, she wanted to cry.
“You’ll get your answer when you see him tomorrow. This wille to an end tomorrow.” Elias got up
and
slid into the darkness of the night, then he left the ce
Holding the taser tightly. Amanda went back to Rosie oom Surprisingly Rosie was still in her bed,
asleep. As per Elsas reminder. Amanda locked the room and went back to the couch. She would stay
up all night since she couldn’t sleep anyway
