Suspicion.
Elias returned to the car with troubling thoughts in his mind. He stayed in silence as he processed the
thoughts.
Yacob didn’t dare interrupt Elias’ train of thought, so he waited in the driver’s seat without speaking up.
There was no other sound in the car other than the sound of the rain beating against the windows.
A long while later, Elias began in a low voice. “What do you make of Grace? Can I trust her words?”
Yacob pondered for a moment before answering. “As far as I remember, Miss Murphy is pure and
innocent. At worst, she prioritizes her beau over everything. She has no ambition other than staying by
your side. I believe that you can trust her words.”
Yacob remembered Grace as a little girl who wasn’t worth their time.
Elias watched the raindrops slide down the window. The complex situation gave him a headache, so he
used his slender fingers to massage the bridge of his nose.
If Amanda and Grace speak the truth, then I slept with both women during the dinner. That’s not
possible.
The thought only worsened his headache.
Yacob noticed Elias discomfort and commented in concern. “We should go to the hospital, Mr. Winters.
Pushing yourself too hard won’t do you good. Old Mr. Winters will blame me if anything happens to
you.”
He could imagine the scene in which Howard went mad when he discovered that Yacob helped Elias to
be discharged from the hospital. What if the discovery sends Old Mr. Winters to the hospital this time?
“Shut up. Just drive me home.” Elias continued to massage his forehead as he leaned against the seat
with his eyes closed. He didn’t seem well to Yacob.
“Please listen to me. Mr. Winters. It was a serious car accident. Besides, I think somebody is behind
the accident.” Yacob spoke his mind.
His words put Elias on alert. “Come again?” he asked with his eyes wide open.
Yacob hesitated. A frown formed between his brows. “It’s just a guess, but I think somebody must’ve
planned it”
“And what proof do you have?”
Yacob didn’t answer as Elias’ words got him thinking. At first, he didn’t plan to trouble Elias with his
guesses without solid evidence. However, the details in the crash site suggested otherwise.
“There are no cameras to monitor the situation in the section. Besides, according to the films in the
drive recorder, you lost control of the car before the accident. Therefore, I gave the car a thorough
inspection and found that the steering wheel and brake weren’t in good condition. However, one usually
won’t pay attention to them.”
Elias narrowed his eyes as he tried to recall the details before the accident.

Chapter 92 Suspicion
It rained heavily that day. He had always been blaming himself for not watching the road with attention.
which resulted in him running the car off the road and into the forest. However, Yacob’s words allowed
him to see things from a new perspective.
With Elias’ driving skills, he shouldn’t have overturned his car in the forest. There should only be a few
scratches here and there. I can’t even remember what made the car turn over,
“Mr. Winters, I don’t have solid evidence for the time being, so I shouldn’t blame anyone, I might be
imagining things.” Yacob did not want to jump to conclusions.
Elias watched the rain running down the window in silence. His thoughts remained unknown to Yacob.
It was raining again. The rainy spell frustrated Amanda.
She slept in because it was a weekend and woke up when it was almost 12.00PM.
Meanwhile, Selina had taken Aiden to the amusement park and the gesture eased Amanda’s burden.
She was glad to have some alone time to herself on the weekend.
Suddenly, her stomach rumbled. She went downstairs and turned to head to the kitchen, intending to
make noodles for brunch.
She was meeting up with a client in the afternoon for business, so she decided to grab a light meal.
Her phone rang when she was cooking the noodles. She picked up her phone with one hand while she
continued to stir the noodles in the pot with a ladle.
Simon’s voice rang out from the other end of the line. “What are your plans for the weekend?”
“Enjoy it, of course. What’s the matter? Boss, is it a call from work?” Amanda teased
“It isn’t. Are you free later? I want to treat you and Aiden to lunch. The fish I ordered has arrived and it
is very fresh. Aiden loves having fish, so I’ll make lunch for you”
Amanda giggled. It’s okay. That little brat is having a fun time with his babysitter in the amusement
park.”
“Oh, I see. What about you? Do you have any plans for lunch? Why don’t you join me? Cooking for
myself is demotivating.
She felt bad for turning him down not once but twice. However, she insisted on her stance. “Don’t worry
about me. You can ask Miss Gowen to join you for lunch, though. I’m making noodles for brunch. I’m
going to meet up with a client this afternoon.
“There’s one thing you need to know, Amanda. What happened between me and Lunabelle is all in the
past. I’m not interested in picking up where we left off.”
“Whatever. You’re not obliged to explain to me, you know? It’s none of my business. If you don’t have
feelings for her anymore, you should move on to another woman. After all, you’re at the age to find the
woman of your life.”
Amanda recognized the undertone in Simon’s words. However, she didn’t see a future with him even if
Lunabelle didn’t exist in the first place.

Chapter 92 Suspicion
Simon Nicholson was an excellent man, but Amanda was a divorced woman with a child to take care
of. Moreover, he proposed a marriage without love, and she couldn’t agree with him on that term.
She could tell he hadn’t moved on from his ex-girlfriend. I guess he can’t get over the fact he got
ditched by her back then, which explains why he rejected her suggestion to rekindle the flame.
Amanda didn’t need more words to get her point across. Simon understood them and he changed the
topic to lighten the mood. “By the way. I heard that Elias was involved in a car crash. Aren’t you going
to visit him?”
His words put a frown between her brows. “Words sure travel fast, huh? Even you have heard of the
news.”
“People in our social circle have been talking about the accident. I heard that it almost killed him. Is he
all right?”
“He’s fine overall but needs some time to recover.
“It seems like you did visit him.” Simon’s disappointment was evident in his tone.
She couldn’t help but chuckle. “Don’t pull that trick on me, Mr. Nicholson. You won’t hear the answer
you expect. Visiting him in the hospital doesn’t mean there’s anything between me and him. After all,
he found my child and brought my child back to me. I’m grateful for that.”
“That’s not what I mean. I was told that there were no cameras in the certain section, let alone
capturing what happened. The police couldn’t find anything at the crash site.”
Amanda’s heart skipped a beat at the innocent statement. Her smile froze on her face as she recalled
eavesdropping on Grace’s call at the hospital.
The thought deepened the frown between her brows as she recalled the situation.
She remembered that Grace was talking to somebody on the phone in the hospital that day. Grace
mentioned that there weren’t any cameras around the section, alongside exuding confidence that the
police wouldn’t suspect her.
Now that he mentions it, something was not right with Grace. Is someone responsible for the accident
and the person is none other than Grace? Besides, it was Elias’ birthday that day. Everyone calls it
karma and it can be traced back to Grace’s brother, Yelan. Does it have anything to do with Grace? Is
she behind all this nonsense of trying to make people believe that Elias had it coming?
