Chapter 484 Help Me, Elias!

"Enough talking. Now, please leave my house. It seems like we aren't meant for each other, and I'll explain it to my parents."

Simon now fully understood that if he didn't like Violet, he should be more honest with her. It was the only kind thing to do.

Leading her on without telling her he wasn't interested in her would only hurt her in the end.

"Simon, how could you? We-" Violet was on the verge of tears. She just realized that Simon. was really angry, and no words could appease his anger.

"Please leave. It's all my fault. I shouldn't have made it difficult for both of us. When it comes to love, you either have feelings for that person, or you feel nothing at all. Time won't change anything." Simon made it clear. He didn't want to have anything to do with Violet anymore.

"Simon, don't do this to me. I've learned from my mistakes. It won't happen again. I didn't mean to hurt her. I was just too angry at that moment. She has explained everything to me, clarifying that there's nothing between you two. Now, I believe her. I really do."

Violet's mind was in chaos. She wished to get Amanda to back her, but she didn't know where to begin.

Her attitude gave Simon a headache. He pinched the bridge of his nose and took a deep breath before saying, "Miss Lynch, our parents only introduced us to each other in the hope. that we could get along. Obviously, I've tried, but we aren't meant to be. So, let's not waste each other's time."

"You only had meals with me once and even left halfway through that time. What gives you the right to make that conclusion? You're only angry because I chased that woman away! Why do you have to jump to conclusions? I'll replace her and bring her back! Just you wait!" After that, Violet turned around and ran away without looking back. She was afraid that staying would give him the chance to say more hurtful words to her.

Watching her run away, Simon sighed softly and looked at the nanny. "Just wait at home. If Amanda comes back, call me immediately. I'm going out to replace her."

"All right, but Mr. Nicholson, please take a coat with you. When Miss Bailey left, she was still wearing the same clothes as when she first arrived here. Even more, the clothes aren't completely dry." Simon frowned at the statement as he waited for the nanny to bring him the coat.

Amanda is neglecting her health! Has she gone to Elias by any chance?

He couldn't think of anywhere else Amanda could go at the moment, but considering Elias" fierce expression and his admission that he would imprison her if she returned, she probably wouldn't head to him. Then, where did she go?

Meanwhile, the sky had turned dark. The night fell on Imperia. Neon signs dotted the buildings, creating a lively atmosphere.

Amanda wandered down the streets without anywhere to go.

Don't tell me I have to sleep on a park bench tonight.

She looked at the couples in the park, feeling a pang of bitterness. What's wrong with

up

my life?

She stood and glanced at her phone before she smiled. She suddenly felt hungry, but she couldn't do anything without money.

Suddenly, she noticed the watch on her wrist. She remembered that it was a prestigious brand. Since it was a gift from Elias before he lost his memory, she decided to sell the watch. Otherwise, she would have to sleep on the streets tonight.

Amanda finally had cash with her after selling the watch and could afford to stay in a hotel tonight. However, she didn't have an ID, so she could only look for an unlicensed inn to stay in.

Late that night, she started to regret choosing the inn because it began to make her uncomfortable.

The place had poor sanitation, and the room was too small, while it also emanated a strange smell.

After locking the door, she scanned the room and decided to make do for one night and replace. another place tomorrow.

At midnight, she was startled awake by the frenzy of door-knocking from outside. She stared. at the door in fear, shouting, "Who is it?"

However, there was no answer from the outside. The person continued to knock on the door, causing her to huddle in her bed, not daring to move. The knocks on the door never stopped, as if the person outside was trying to break down the door.

Amanda quietly got off the bed and slowly moved to the door as she tried to see who was outside through the peephole.

She was so nervous that cold sweat trickled down her forehead. Even her mouth quivered in fear. She looked through the peephole, only to replace an eye looking in from the other side..

The sight frightened her. Stumbling, she fell to the floor. Her eyes widened, and her face paled. Did I just see a ghost?

Then, another round of knocking on the door started again. Each knock was louder than the last, giving her a feeling that the door would break at any moment.

Amanda felt her legs go weak. She crawled onto the bed to pick up her phone. The first. number that came to her mind was Elias'. It was the only number she could remember, as though it was her nature. She dialed the number with trembling hands while the sound of frantic knocking continued. outside. She felt like she was on the verge of a breakdown.

Finally, the call connected. A cold voice came through the phone. "Who is this?"

"Help me, Elias!"

Upon hearing Amanda's voice, Elias, who had calmed down, instantly exploded with anger. "Help you? Help you from what? Amanda, do you think it's funny to play tricks on me? Are you trying to show off? You must be out of your mind!"

At that, he hung up the phone.

Amanda stared at the screen. He ends the call before I can say anything.

Suddenly, a raspy voice came from outside. "Darling, come on! Open the door! I'm freezing to death out here! Stop messing around and just open it. We were just arguing. Do you seriously want me to sleep in the hallway?"

Looking at the door in confusion, she had a feeling that the man was a human trafficker. Even more, he made up a story. The other tenants who heard him would never come out to intervene. After all, they would just think it was a quarrel between a husband and wife.

Therefore, she dialed Elias' number again. The call finally connected after a long time. His voice, on the other end, was extremely irritable. "Will you ever stop? I'm warning you, if you call again, I'll come over and kill both of you!"

"Elias, please don't hang up! Please come and rescue me! I don't have enough time to explain everything to you. If you don't come to my rescue now, you won't have the opportunity to kill me later-Ah!" Before she could complete her sentence, someone forcefully kicked open the door, causing her to scream in terror. At the same time, her phone slipped from her grasp.

She quickly retrieved the phone and clutched it tightly in her hand.
