If You Don’t Agree, Then There’s No Point in Discussing
Amanda was in a great dilemma. Should I tell Elias the truth? He will save Aiden if I tell him that’s his
son, right? But…
Sometime later, Amanda looked up at the infuriated man and asked, “If… I mean, if that’s your child,
would you refuse to save him as well?”
Her words enraged Elias for good.
He shot up from bed, strode to her, and clamped her jaw as he snarled: “Don’t talk to me about this!
There is no “if”! My child died four years ago, and you know it! I won’t save this child no matter what
you say!”
At that, tears rolled down Amanda’s cheeks and onto Elias’ arm before falling onto the carpet.
Is she crying?! Elias’ eyes widened slightly with incredulity. She’s crying because I refuse to save
Nicholson’s son, and she’s crying so devastatingly at that!
His possessiveness and jealousy brewed at once, and he clamped Amanda’s jaw even harder. “Did
you cry when you gave up our child?! Were you this sad?!”
“You’ll regret this!” Amanda flung his arm away with unadulterated malice.
This b*stard is just as heartless as he was four years ago. Nothing can change his mind once he’s
decided on it.
“I won’t,” Elias enunciated.
“Very well. I shouldn’t have come in the first place!” Amanda’s tears were like beads of a broken. string
at this point, rolling one after another down her cheeks as she left his bedroom without even looking
back..
Meanwhile, Elias pressed his lips into a thin line as he looked at her obstinate back, and the knuckles
of his clenched fists popped by his sides.

“Mr. Elias is hot-tempered like that, Miss Bailey. You just have to talk to him,” said the butler as he
followed the teary-eyed woman out of the estate.
“Say no more. He’s just a d*ckhead. I don’t want to see him ever again.”
“Let me arrange for a car to send you back, then. You won’t be able to hail a cab here,” the butler
advised.
The Winters Estate was located in the suburbs. It was impossible to hail a cab there, and the butler
noticed Amanda had come in one earlier.
“No, thanks! Don’t follow me anymore!” Amanda was feeling her worst, and she couldn’t think about
anything else other than Aiden right then.
Alas, she realized how wrong she was when she left the estate, for there wasn’t even a bus stop in
sight, let alone a ghost of a cab.
What else can I do? She wouldn’t accept any more help from the Winterses. She’d crawl back to the
city if she had to this night..
Must I wait three days for the kidnapper to contact me again, though? How would Aiden survive the
next three days?! We’ve never been away from each other as long as three days!
Devastation overwhelmed Amanda at this point, and she thought the world had fallen on her.
She hadn’t even felt this devastated when Elias divorced her so mercilessly four years ago.
It was pitch-black all around, and only the streetlamps illuminated her path.
Because she injured her ankle while jumping out of the window and showered with cold water to cut
time, her head now felt woozy.
I must’ve caught a cold… Amanda sneezed as she hugged her arms, covered in goosebumps.
The next second, she blacked out and dropped to the ground, gradually losing consciousness.
Sometime later, a car slowly approached her direction from afar while its headlights shone on
her.
The door opened, and Elias went up to her with heavy, urgent footsteps, attempting to shake her
awake, “Hey! Wake up!” However, no matter how he woke her up, she was a lifeless lump.
At that, he picked her up and put her in the back seat. Her scorching temperature made him. frown with
displeasure as he cursed under his breath. “Idiot!”
At 3.00AM, Amanda woke up groggily with a dry throat. “Water… Thirsty..
With that, a glass of water was brought to her mouth. She was even propped up and fed, but because
she drank too quickly, she nearly choked. Cough, cough…
“Slow down. No one’s rushing you,” said a husky, alluring voice.
Huh? Doesn’t this voice belong to… Elias? Amanda widened her eyes and finally saw who was
supporting her.
“How did I get here…
After realizing it was Elias, she struggled out of bed. She didn’t have time to rest when she still had a
child to rescue!

“You’re not going anywhere! Where do you think you’re going with a fever?! You sure are Cludan’s
number-one stepmother! Just what spell has Nicholson put you under to make you so devoted to him?!
The man’s words were full of sarcasm, and his tone was sharp and acerbic.
Amanda couldn’t help supporting her groggy head as she fell back against the bed while gazing icily at
the man before her. “It’s none of your business. Move!”
At that, she lifted the covers to get out of bed, but Elias pressed her back down and pinned her under
him, scolding. “Don’t be ungrateful! You’d have died of a high fever out there if I hadn’t brought you
back!”
“Did I ask you to bring me back? You could have just left me there!”
“Has a dog eaten your conscience away, you heartless wench?!” Elias wanted to strangle her. She was
so gentle and considerate to Simon but only ever sharp-tongued and obstinate with him.
Seeing that Amanda continued to fight him like a ferocious wildcat, Elias finally gave in and made her
an offer, saying, “Fine, I’ll help you find the child, but on one condition.”
Sure enough, Amanda stopped struggling and lay quietly under Elias. Even her gaze turned from
malice to surprise. “Really? You’re not lying to me, are you? What condition?”
Seeing how quickly her expression changed, Elias snorted disdainfully and stood straight, looking down
at the young woman in bed. “Sever ties with Nicholson after the child has been retrieved, and stop
dreaming about ever becoming that child’s stepmother!”
Sever ties? How can I do that when Simon has helped me out so much in the last four years?! Wouldn’t
that make me the ungrateful b*stard, then?!
“There’s no point in discussing if you don’t agree to it.” Elias saw through her hesitation.
“Alright, deal!”
The most important thing now was to rescue Aiden. Everything else could be dealt with after that.
“When will you start looking for the child, then?” Amanda gazed firmly at Elias. “He’s been missing for a
day. Any longer, and I worry he’ll have a meltdown.”
their “What’s the rush? Since it’s a kidnapping, they won’t do anything to the child before they get
ransom,” said Elias as he sat on the bed and handed her the remaining glass of water. “Finish it.”
