Chapter 504 Why Are You So Close to Me? 

“Do you not remember anything?”

Amanda felt somewhat frustrated. It had been such a long time, yet Elias couldn’t remember anything.

What hurt her most was that Elias had even forgotten the way he used to love her.

Elias remained silent, his gaze fixed on her.

She sighed, feeling helpless as she leaned back on the bed. She didn’t want to talk anymore.

He furrowed his brow. “What’s with that expression? I may not remember now, but it doesn’t mean I’llnever remember. Why do you look so disheartened?”

“But do you remember how you used to love me? I look like a stranger to you now, don’t I?”

“Of course not. At least we’re legally married, so you look more familiar than a stranger.”

Amanda was left utterly speechless. This despicable man was driving her crazy.

Looking at her angry and helpless expression, Elias oddly found her somewhat adorable. Gentleripples of affection began to stir in his heart.

“I don’t have anything to say to you now. Your injuries haven’t completely healed. You should sleep onthe bed, and I’ll sleep on the couch.”

Just as Amanda was about to get up and leave, Elias extended his long arm, pulling her back. into hisembrace.

Suddenly, Elias’ handsome face drew near hers. Amanda instinctively pushed him away, almost fallingoff the bed.

Fortunately, Elias quickly caught her and pulled her back onto the bed, pressing her underneath him.This ambiguous position made the atmosphere in the room extremely awkward.

Amanda looked at the man pinning her down. His face was so close to hers.

She couldn’t remember the last time she had been this close to Elias. He was still as handsome asever, and in those dark eyes, there was only her.

“Why are you so close to me and pressing down on me?” Amanda’s voice suddenly became incrediblysoft

Elias looked at her delicate face, and his heart slowly accepted the fact that she was the woman hedeeply loved. He also understood why he had loved Amanda so much in the past

“We’re husband and wife. Why can’t I be this close to you? Why can’t I press down on you?” Heshamelessly retorted.

Amanda’s cheeks instantly turned as red as a ripe tomato. She turned her head away, tooembarrassed to meet his eyes.

“Didn’t you completely mistrust me before? Go away!”

It had been a long time since they had been intimate, and she felt a bit uncomfortable. Moreover, Eliaswas experiencing amnesia. She felt like she was with a completely different man.

Elias, on the other hand, adjusted her head and looked straight into her eyes. “I trust you now.Otherwise, why would I endure the discomfort and come all the way here with you?”

Amanda remained silent, gazing into his eyes. Once again, she found herself falling for him.

She could never run away from Elias. Every time they met, she would fall for him.

As Elias slowly leaned in, about to kiss her lips, Amanda suddenly pushed him. away. in the mood forthis here. Let’s wait until we get back.”

“I’m not Elias lay on the bed and closed his eyes, feeling resigned. The atmosphere he had so carefullybuilt had been ruined.

Amanda lay on the sofa, preparing to sleep, but Elias got up and, in a slow, deliberate manner, said, “Iwas just teasing you. I’m not in the mood either. I’m going back to sleep. Go sleep on the bed.”

After saying that, he turned and left the room, leaving Amanda sitting on the couch, confused.

She looked at the closed door. Did Elias come over here just to tease me?

What the hell?

However, even after Elias left, Amanda still couldn’t sleep.

So, in the middle of the night, she put on her robe and decided to take a walk.

Having stayed here before, she had some memory of the Lawrence Estate’s layout. She found her wayto the garden, where the scent of flowers filled the air.

She wondered whether Aiden had dreamt while sleeping.

Soon, she would be able to take him home, and she was excited at the thought of it.

Although Elias had lost his memory, he was starting to believe what she said. Upon their return, theycould swiftly rekindle the happiness of their family of three.

As for those lost memories, she and Aiden would also make every effort to help Elias recover them.She believed it wouldn’t be difficult.

Suddenly, she smelled the scent of tobacco.

Amanda frowned unhappily and followed the smell, only to replace the back of a man. She was about toturn around and leave when she realized it was Symeon standing there.

Symeon also noticed the footsteps behind him. He turned around and saw her. He then extinguishedhis cigarette and said, “You see me and want to leave immediately? Do you hate me that much?”

Amanda stopped in her tracks and looked at Symeon. “It’s not that I hate you, but there’s nothing left tosay between us.”

Symeon sneered. “Why wouldn’t there be anything to say? You and Melissa made a fool out of me, andnow you want to escape unscathed? How can there be nothing left to say?”

She was left silent by his words.

“Why aren’t you saying anything? You were quite the talker when you were deceiving me. Can’t say asingle word now?”

He felt extremely uncomfortable at the thought of having a daughter with Melissa and couldn’t believehe had a child with such a woman.

That’s impossible!

“I was just protecting myself. If you want to see it as deception, I have nothing to say. However, Melissadid deceive you. You can ask her. After all, she is the mother of your child,”

“The truth of the matter is still uncertain. Let’s wait for the DNA test results before making anyconclusions.” Symeon had no intention of admitting that Melissa was the mother of hist child.

Amanda smiled. “I can assure you that regardless of the test results, the fact remains that Aiden, Elias,and I are a family of three. I know who my son’s father is.”

He tightly pursed his lips and stared at her without saying a word.

“It’s late now. I’m going back to sleep, and you should too. I hope you can provide the DNA test resultsas soon as possible so that we can return home.”

As she turned around, Symeon said, “If you could sleep, you wouldn’t be standing here.”

Symeon continued, “Elias said he lost his memory due to a car accident. Is this true or a joke?”

He didn’t think Elias resembled someone suffering from memory loss, but he also felt Elias hadchanged so much. Could he really have amnesia?

“He’s not lying, and it’s not a joke. Before we returned to Esmos, he was indeed in a major accidentand was in a coma. The person responsible for the accident was Melissa. So, I’m very angry with thatwoman!”
