Chapter 406 Mr Winters... Had an Accident

Just then, Colette brought juice and dessert over and saw that Amanda's face didn't look good, so she couldn't help but ask, "Mrs. Winters, what's wrong? Are you alright? Why do you look so pale?"

"I'm fine. I just suddenly felt a bit uncomfortable in my heart. It's probably because I didn't sleep well last night."

Amanda shook her head. She didn't know why her heart hurt a lot just now.

She looked at the time again and realized that it was almost 10 p.m., but Elias wasn't home yet.

She then looked at Aiden, who was drawing, and said, "Aiden, take a break and have some juice."

"Okay."

Colette saw that her face was really pale and advised her, "Mrs. Winters, why don't you go to your room and rest for a while? I'll help Mr. Aiden take a bath and prepare for bed when he gets tired. Don't stay up too late. Your health is more important."

Amanda looked at Aiden and asked, "Is that alright? Can Mrs. Colette put you to sleep later?"

Although Aiden wanted her to put him to sleep, he chose to let Colette accompany him when he heard her say that her heart wasn't feeling well.

"Yes, Mommy. You should go to sleep if you're not feeling well."

Amanda patted his little head and said, "Good boy, I'll go lie down for a while. If you can't sleep later, come find Mommy."

"Okay."

So, Amanda went back to her room alone, but she couldn't fall asleep.

She didn't know why her heart kept aching, as if it was trying to tell her something and Elias' face kept appearing in her mind. She wanted to call and ask, but she was afraid that he must be busy. Forget it, let's not disturb him.

Then, she picked up the phone and called Boris to say, "Call me when Elias is back."

"Yes, Mrs. Winters."

After hanging up the phone, Amanda felt restless again. She tossed and turned in bed, but just couldn't fall asleep. So, she played with her phone for a long time before finally falling into slumber. -She had a very long dream. In the dream, she saw Elias on a deserted road, waving at her as if to say

goodbye.

No matter how she ran towards him in the dream, she couldn't go near him or make a sound.

Suddenly, he was covered in blood, lying motionless on the road, as if he was dead. "No! Elias, no!"

Suddenly, she woke up from the dream and sat up abruptly with her forehead covered in cold sweat. She was gasping for air as she was still immersed in the nightmare.

After checking her surroundings, she realized that it was just a dream and breathed a sigh of relief.

Thank heavens it was just a dream.

Amanda massaged her forehead for a while before flipping the covers and getting out of bed, only to realize that it was already morning.

It was eight o'clock in the morning now. So, she went to the bathroom to freshen up before changing into a set of home clothes.

When she arrived at the living room, she saw Colette cleaning.

"Mrs. Winters, you're awake. Mr. Aiden is still sleeping. Should I wake him up?"

Amanda waved her hand and said, "It's okay. Let him sleep. He doesn't have school and he'll just make a fuss if he wakes up." "What would you like for breakfast? I'll have the kitchen prepare it for you."

"Just some congee and side dishes. I don't have much of an appetite."

She looked around to find that Elias wasn't there. Did he not come back all night?

Amanda remembered asking Boris to call her if Elias returned before going to bed.

Hmm...

Amanda looked at Colette and asked. "Where is Elias? He didn't come back all night?"

"Yes. Mr. Winters didn't return last night." Then, she turned around and walked toward the kitchen. Amanda suddenly felt unstable and her heart skipped a beat.

He didn't come back all night and didn't even give her a call. Did something happen?

Even when he was busy on a business trip abroad, Elias would always find time to call her.

The more she thought about it, the more anxious she became. She picked up her phone and dialed Elias" number, but it went to voicemail.

His phone is switched off?

Amanda's heart sank. Something must have happened!

How could the busy bee Elias turn off his phone?

Her heart started to race as she panicked and dialed Yacob's phone.

After ringing for a long time, the call was finally connected. The background on the other end was a bit chaotic, and Yacob sounded exhausted as if he had experienced a great disaster.

"Hello...

2/4

Vacob! What's going on? I can't reach Elias and you both didn't come home all night. Where did he go?" Yacob remained silent for a long time. I'm sorry; it's my fault for not protecting Mr. Winters..."

Her pupils contracted as she gripped the phone tightly while her lips trembled. "What are you saying... W- What happened to him?"

"Mr. Winters... had a car accident... He's still in the emergency room, but his injuries are too severe, so there's a high possibility..."

Amanda's face instantly turned pale. Her eyes widened with tears streaming down her face and she shouted angrily, "Where are you guys now? Which hospital are you at?"

She felt her whole body shake and couldn't help but cry out loud.

How could this be? Was the bloody scene she dreamed of last night real? Was Elias' soul saying goodbye to her?

"No!" Amanda cried out in despair.

At the hospital, Yacob stood motionless outside the operating room with clothes stained with blood as if he had fought against death.

Medical staff kept going in and out of the operating room, but no one knew what was happening inside.

When Amanda arrived at the hospital and saw Yacob standing outside the operating room, tears immediately welled up in her eyes.

Her legs felt weak and almost fell to the ground.

He stepped forward and supported her. Amanda saw the bloodstains on his clothes and cried, "Is this his blood?"

Yacob didn't say anything, which was as good as confirming it.

Amanda cried even harder. How could there be so much blood? How could one person bleed so much? Yacob's clothes are almost soaked in blood... "Why? Why did this happen? He promised me that he would be careful."

Amanda still remembered Elias' promise to her before he left last night saying that he would be fine and that he would definitely return.

But now, why was he lying in the operating room in critical condition?

"It was that woman, Melissa Walters, who hit Mr. Winters before running away."

Yacob's voice was hoarse. Last night, he kept trying to wake Elias up on the way to the hospital, but Elias wasn't responsive no matter how hard he tried. Melissa Walters? Why is this name so familiar?

However, Amanda didn't have the heart to think about that. She just wanted to know when Elias would come out of the operating room.

"When will he come out?" she asked with a sob and her whole body pale without a trace of color.
