Chapter 422 Who Are You?
After seeing Yacob disappear into the night, Amanda’s tense heart finally relaxed as she adjusted her
mindset.
“Baby, don’t say anything later. No matter what that man asks, you’ll say you do not know, okay?”
Aiden nodded obediently. “Okay.”
It was as if he really understood what Yacob had just said.
She smiled and stroked her son’s head. “You’re the best. I’ll reward you with another small piece of cake later.”
Then, she turned and ran to the door, gripping the doorknob and taking a deep breath before opening the door.
Symeon, the butler, and a bodyguard were currently standing outside the door, as if they were ready for a battle at any moment.
Symeon glanced into the room and asked, “Are you okay? I heard you and Aiden calling earlier.“
“Uh… we’re fine. Aiden and I were just playing around. We used to do this often,” Amanda replied, then -looked down at her son beside her. “Right, Aiden?”
Aiden nodded vigorously, “Yes, yes. We’re playing games. We’re fine.”
Although he did not understand what was going on, he knew he had to protect Mr. Yacob.
Symeon found their reaction a bit strange. It was as if they were trying to hide something.
He furrowed his brow and asked, “Are you sure everything is okay?”
“We’re fine, really. Aiden and I were just playing around. Nothing is wrong,” Amanda said with a smile, reaching out to stroke her son’s head.
Aiden also cooperated and said, “We’re fine, really.”
Symeon did not say anything more, but he walked straight into the room and looked around, not noticing anything unusual.
“I told you we’re fine, but you still don’t believe us.”
So, Symeon glanced at the butler and bodyguard outside the door and said, “You can go back to your duties.”
“Yes.”
-After the butler and bodyguard left, Symeon looked at Aiden and asked, “You didn’t finish the cake. Don’t
you like it?”
Aiden looked at Amanda with a pitiful expression. “Mommy won’t let me cat it.”
“Why?” Symeon asked, puzzled.
Amanda smiled helplessly. “You spoil him too much. It’s almost bedtime, and you would let him cat so

much sweet food. Do you want him to get cavities?”
He fell silent and thought Amanda made a good point.
“Your mommy is right. You can cat some tomorrow.”
After saying that, he looked at Amanda and said, “You two should go to bed early. If nothing is wrong, don’t make a fuss. The butler and bodyguard might think something happened.”
“Okay.” Amanda nodded and watched him leave the room.
The moment the door closed, she breathed a sigh of relief. He was finally gone.
Amanda returned to the window in worry and looked outside. She could not see Yacob’s figure anymore, but hope still ignited in her heart.
In four days, they could finally leave this prison.
A smile appeared on her lips. She wanted to return to Cludan immediately and stay by Elias’ side to wait for him to wake up.
It had been almost a month since she last saw him. She really missed him.
Meanwhile, in Cludan.
As Yacob was not in the country, Rosie had the opportunity to enter the hospital room. It was the result of a lot of begging.
The bodyguards were annoyed by her constant pestering, so they allowed her to enter for a short while.
Rosie entered the hospital room and looked at Elias, who had been in a coma for almost a month without any signs of waking up.
“Could it be… you really want to become a vegetable? Is that what you want?”
Rosie muttered to herself as she held the man’s hand. She knew him too well. He would rather die than become a useless person lying in bed.
Suddenly…
His fingers moved slightly, and his eyes widened in astonishment. She looked down at his fingers, afraid that what she had just felt was an illusion.
“Elias! Are you awake? Elias!” Rosie shouted, but the man seemed unresponsive. It was as if the movement earlier was just her imagination.
As her shouting was too loud, a bodyguard entered the hospital room to pull her away.
“Miss Momsey, you should leave. Mr. Winters needs to rest. If I knew you would be so noisy, I would not have let you in.” The bodyguard grabbed Rosie’s arm and forcefully pulled her out.
“No! I really saw him move just now. His hand moved! Quickly call the doctor. Is he waking up?” She looked at the motionless Elias on the hospital bed, desperately trying to convince them.
The bodyguard glanced at the bed and only saw an unconscious Elias. Exasperated, he pulled her out of the room. “Miss Momsey, please leave. There’s no point in clinging on here.”

However, at that moment, a cough echoed within the hospital room.
Rosie and the bodyguard froze, turning their heads to look inside the room. At that moment, Elias was coughing violently.
The bodyguard was shocked and immediately turned to call the doctor.
Meanwhile, she rushed to the bed. “Elias! Elias! Are you awake?”
Elias slowly opened his eyes, as if they had been sealed for thousands of years. His deep gaze was filled
with silence.
He furrowed his brows slightly as he looked at the room around him and the tearful woman in front of him.
After an examination, the doctor announced, “Mr. Winters has fully regained consciousness. Now, he needs to rest. The injuries from the car accident were severe, and it will take at least a year or more to fully
recover.”
The doctor continued, “Also, remember not to let him experience any more stress. The blood clot in his brain has not completely dissipated yet. If he gets too excited, it could cause the clot to spread, and then his life would be in danger.”
Thank you, doctor.” After the doctor left, the bodyguard excitedly approached Elias. “Mr. Winters! You’ve finally woken up!”
Although Elias had awakened, he was still a bit disoriented.
“Who are you?” His voice was hoarse, and his breathing was rapid.
“Ah? I… The bodyguard was dumbfounded. Did Elias not remember him?
Rosie was also stunned. What was going on? Had he lost his memory?.
She sprinted down the stairs but suddenly remembered her pregnancy and slowed down. Clutching the test strip in her hand, she wondered what Elias Winters' reaction would be once he heard the news.
Yet, when Amanda was halfway down the stairs, she saw two figures in the living room—Elias and a sexy woman. Slowing down her steps, she held the handrail tightly and felt her heart sink. That was because she saw her husband and the woman behaving affectionately as though they were a smitten couple.
