The Pain in Elias’ Heart
Amanda had initially not wanted to ask, but Yacob’s words sparked her curiosity. “May I ask how
Grace’s brother died? How gruesome was it, exactly? Of course, if it’s inconvenient for you to talk
about it, forget what I asked.”
She was not intentionally prying into someone’s privacy; she was simply curious. Yacob seemed
reluctant to bring it up, so she decided not to push further and prepared to turn around and get some
more sleep. After all, she could not leave anyway.
Suddenly, his voice sounded behind her..
“When Mr. Jensly Winters’ enemy wanted to kidnap Mr. Winters, and we were living in constant danger.
Mr. Jensly came up with a plan for Yelan to disguise himself as Mr. Winters, to become his substitute
until the officers captured that deranged enemy. But…”
Amanda stopped in her tracks, slowly turning her body and continuing his words, “But before the
officers. could catch the culprit, Yelan was kidnapped and treated as Mr. Jensly’s son. He suffered
unimaginable torture, didn’t he?”
He nodded, and her expression became somewhat sorrowful.
“It was more than just torture; it was a level of cruelty beyond imagination. By the time we arrived, he
had been broken beyond recognition. His fingers were cut off, both feet severed. His eyeballs were
gouged out, and his ears were sliced off. He was barely clinging to life, waiting for Mr. Winters to come,
hoping to entrust his sister to him for care…
Amanda could not help but cover her mouth, her eyes filled with horror. Just hearing these descriptions
was so painful that she could not help but feel like crying. How did Yelan endure until they arrived? It’s
so tragic…..
Yacob forced a bitter smile. That’s why Mr. Winters feels indebted to Yelan. During that time, Mr.
Winters often had nightmares. That’s why he tries to make it up to Grace for everything because it was
truly horrifying…
She seemed to have a faint understanding of the pain in Elias’ heart.
He continued, “Because of Yelan, Mr. Winters has a strained relationship with his parents. He believes
that his father’s decision led to Yelan’s demise, and he doesn’t even consider Yelan’s life as a human
life.”
Amanda fell silent.
Indeed, it seemed that way. To be so ruthless, there had to be deep-rooted hatred.
Now that she had thought about it, she had not met his parents and had only seen his grandfather
since she and Elias married.
“By the way, I don’t think I’ve seen my parents-in-law since entering the Winters Family. Only his
grandfather has been with him all along. Where are his parents?”
This topic made Yacob fall silent for a long time, and he said, “You should save this question for Mr.
Winters in the future. We’re not at liberty to disclose that.”

Chapter 74 The Pain in Elias’ Heart
Is there some earth-shattering secret hidden within again?
It was almost dark when Elias finally returned.
Amanda had been confined to the bedroom all day, not stepping outside for a moment. The servants
would bring her meals when it was time to eat. The moment the bedroom door flung open, she thought
she was phantom listening.
Until she saw his figure, she sat up in surprise from the bed. “You’re finally back. Can I leave now?”
She stood up without a word and attempted to leave. As she passed by the man, he grabbed her arm
firmly. “Don’t you have any questions for me?” he asked.
“Questions?” She looked puzzled but soon understood his meaning.
“Oh… I’ve already figured it out. There’s no need to ask. Grace couldn’t bear the blow of being
abandoned by you, so she attempted suicide by cutting her wrist. By the way, how is she? Is she
okay?”
Her sincere concern for Grace’s well-being made the man furrow his brow. “You care about her life and
death?”
Amanda burst into laughter as she was unable to contain herself. “Even if I dislike her, I wouldn’t wish
for her to lose her life. It’s a matter of life and death, not to be taken lightly.”
The man fell silent for two seconds. “She’s fine. She’s under observation in the hospital. She’ll probably
have to stay there for a few days.”
“Alright, then. Take good care of her,” she said, ready to leave. However, the man still held onto her.
Amanda gazed down at her wrist tightly grasped by him. “Is there something else? You’ve kept me
here the whole day. What more do you want?”
“Do you not want to see me? Does every second you spend with me suffocate you?”
He had kept her with him the entire day but had not even seen her once. Every time she saw him, she
wanted to leave without hesitation or reluctance.
“Yes! I don’t want to see you at all. I don’t want to spend even a second with you. Are you satisfied
now?” She forcefully shook off his hand and turned around, leaving the bedroom without looking back.
This time, Elias did not try to restrain her. Instead, he let her go. Watching as the door slammed shut,
he felt like his world had also plunged into darkness.
He walked over to the soft, fluffy bed and collapsed onto it heavily. As he closed his eyes, the horrific
image of Yelan’s final moments kept haunting his mind, refusing to fade away. It was a constant
reminder that taking care of Grace was his responsibility, one he could not escape.
At Galaxy Bay
After returning home, Amanda quickly rushed upstairs to check on her baby. She discovered that
Aiden, that little rascal, was secretly making a call to Simon again. Why can’t this little rascal let go of
him?
Feeling helpless, she went downstairs to prepare milk for him. When she saw the bodyguard sitting on
the couch in the living room, she instantly felt a sense of security. He was provided by Elias for her use.

Chapter 74 The Pain in Elias’ Heart
She had only borrowed the bodyguard from him for a week. After that, she would have to find her
bodyguard to protect Aiden.
“Um, you can go upstairs and choose a guest room to sleep in tonight,” she awkwardly said to the
bodyguard in the living room.

The bodyguard replied. “It’s not necessary, Miss Bailey. I can sleep on the couch in the living room at
night. It’s convenient for me to keep an eye on the surroundings and protect you all.”
“Alright, then. Thank you for your hard work. I’ll find a suitable bodyguard as soon as possible, and you
can be free to leave.”
The bodyguard did not say anything and just nodded. Of course, he wanted to return to Elias’ side as
soon as possible. After all, he was employed by the Winters Family.
Back in her room, Amanda discovered that Aiden was still on the phone. She walked over with the milk
bottle, forcefully put it in his mouth, and snatched the phone from his ear. “You should accompany Miss
Gowen properly at the hospital. Kids don’t understand things and shouldn’t bother you. I apologize on
his behalf.”
Just as she was about to hang up, she heard Simon’s voice from the other end of the line. “Wait, don’t
hang up!”
“Do you have anything else to say?”
“Amanda, Lunabelle spilled wine on you without knowing, and I’ve already explained it to her. She
understands everything now.”
She responded, “So what? Are you going to defend her against Elias? Don’t worry. I won’t interfere.”
“No, that’s not what I meant. I just want to say that there are misunderstandings among the three of us
that need to be cleared up.”
