Broken Headlights
Amanda found Elias’ phone number in her contacts and dialed it, but no one answered
She kept trying a few more times but to no avail.
The rain outside was pouring harder and harder.
Where could Elias be? Why can’t I reach him?
For some reason, even she started to worry about Elias disappearance. Although he was a grown man
and there was no reason for him to go missing, she couldn’t be certain about anything at the moment.
“Mommy, I’m hungry! Is dinner ready? I’m starving!”
Aiden couldn’t bear the hunger any longer and ran to the kitchen, whining adorably.
“Oh.” Amanda snapped back to reality when she heard that. “It’s done. You and Mr. Bodyguard can
have dinner at home. I have something to do, but I will be back soon.”
As she placed the dishes on the table and filled two plates with pasta, she went outside and instructed
the bodyguard, “Please eat with Aiden. I have something to take care of.”
The bodyguard had no objections and simply replied. “It’s raining outside, Miss Bailey. Please come
back
001.
Thank you. Please take good care of Aiden. Don’t let him out of your sight for even one second,” she
emphasized once again.
The bodyguard nodded. “Don’t worry.”
“Mommy, where are you going? I want to go too! Don’t leave me at home. I want to go too!” Aiden
hugged Amanda’s slender legs like he was a koala.
Feeling a little helpless, Amanda kneeled and patiently explained. “I have an urgent matter to attend to.
What about I accompany you when I come back, hmm? I’m not going out to have fun.”
“Ugh… Fine. I’m hungry now, anyway. I don’t have time to go with you!” Aiden huffed before obediently
getting on a chair at the dining table to eat his dinner.
Amanda glanced at the bodyguard in the dining room and felt somewhat reassured.
She then returned to her bedroom upstairs, changed into a different outfit, and grabbed an umbrella
before leaving the house.
Once she drove out of Galaxy Bay, she had a bewildered look on her face. She had no idea where she
should start looking for Elias.
Amanda continued dialing his number, but she couldn’t get through since no one answered.
She called the Winters Estate again, and the butler quickly answered and eagerly asked. “Miss Bailey!
Are there any updates? Did you manage to contact Mr. Winters?”

From the sound of it, it seemed that even the butler had no clue where Elias might be.
“No. You still haven’t found him? Where could he possibly be when it is raining so heavily outside?”

“I’m afraid I don’t know. All I know is that Mr. Winters was busy whipping up a feast to celebrate his
birthday. I don’t know why we suddenly can’t reach him. It has been five to six hours. I’m really worried.
that something might have happened to him.”
“Stop thinking negatively. I’m sure he is fine. Maybe he got caught up with something at the very last
minute. I’ll go to the company and check.” That was what Amanda thought. After all, considering how
Elias was always occupied with work, he might have some business to attend to.
But the butler on the other end of the line explained, “I already called the company earlier. They said
that he is not there. I’m genuinely worried that Mr. Winters had a car accident on the way. If something
did happen right when it was raining so heavily, it would be difficult for anyone to notice him. Just like
what happened to the chairman years ago—”
Boris abruptly stopped mid-sentence when he realized that he had said the wrong thing-
However, Amanda found out something important from Boris words. Was Elias’
father in a car accident?
However, she had no time to worry about things like that now. All she wanted to do was find Elias as
quickly as possible.
“Don’t worry. I’ll go and look for him again while I keep calling him.”
After ending the call, Amanda decided to retrace the route from here to Galaxy Bay. If something had
really happened to Elias’ car halfway, she would surely come across it.
She kept calling, but not once were her calls answered.
The rain that grew heavier poured onto the windshield like a cascade of water, making it almost
impossible to see the road ahead. Fortunately, the Winters Estate was located in a suburban area, and
there weren’t many vehicles on the road.
Amanda deliberately slowed down the car, both for safety reasons and to check if Elias’ car was
anywhere along the way.
There was no one in sight on the road she drove. In fact, it would make more sense for there to be no
one who drove in this terrible weather.
Her confidence started to falter when she had almost reached the entrance of the estate and still hadn’t
noticed anything unusual.
Can a person just disappear like this out of the blue? It doesn’t make sense!
And so, she decided to go back to where she came from. I must have missed some places because of
how heavy
the rain is
Amanda turned the car around and started heading back the same way. This time, she went slower
than before as she scanned the surroundings.
At last, she noticed something amiss. She slowly stopped the car and carefully examined a tree by the
side of the road. It seemed to bear signs of impact as there were fallen leaves and branches scattered
on the

ground.
With an umbrella in her hand, she opened the car door and strode toward the tree.

Upon reaching the tree, she touched the fresh scratch marks on its trunk. It was definitely recent, likely
from today.
A wave of uneasiness washed over her. Did he really get into a car accident?
Her anxiety also rose as she looked at the fresh leaves on the ground.
Even if she despised Elias and was against remarrying him, she didn’t want anything bad to happen to
him.
Amanda held the umbrella and walked into the woods, hoping to find the man’s car, as finding the car
would lead her to him.
Even though she had already prepared for the worst-case scenario, which was that Elias might truly be
in trouble…
The constant pitter-patter she heard from the umbrella above her head sounded like they were beating
against her heart, each drop making her tenser than before.
She spent some time walking deep into the woods, but there was no sign of the car. She even had to
use a flashlight to illuminate the path ahead.
The further she went, the more fearful she became. In truth, she was slightly afraid of the dark,
especially in a deserted forest like this.
Just as Amanda was about to retreat and turn around to leave, she suddenly felt something under her
feet.
Startled, she shone the flashlight on the ground and discovered a shattered car headlight all over the
place.
This means that Elias’ car is nearby!
Amanda swept her flashlight around and searched for his car in the vicinity.
Finally, she spotted a Rolls-Royce on the left, but it was in a horrible state as it had been overturned.
The headlights and bumper were scattered on the ground.
Tears welled up in Amanda’s eyes as she cried and hurriedly approached the scene. Her heartbeat
accelerated with each step.
She couldn’t bear to imagine the condition inside the car right now. What happened to Elias in the
crash… Is he… dead?
She suddenly had an emotional breakdown. As she stared at the overturned vehicle before her, her
steps grew heavy and she hesitated to go closer.
But if Elias was seriously injured, she couldn’t afford to delay getting him to the hospital. It could cost
him
his life.
Amanda rushed forward and shone her flashlight into the car, only to find it empty with the windows
open.
“Elias, where are you? Elias!”
She turned around and called the man’s name out loud. However, the sound of rain hitting the leaves
drowned her voice, covering it completely.
