Chapter 64 A Strange Atmosphere
“I’ll take a shower. You can rest for a while.” Elias took off his coat, making his way toward
the bathroom, not wanting to listen to that woman’s heinous howling.
Amanda nodded and sat on the bed somewhat helplessly. Then, she took out her phone,
which had been switched off for a full day. She wanted to turn it on and see if the
kidnapper had contacted her but felt disappointed after seeing no calls from them.
However, there were dozens of missed calls and numerous text messages from Simon.
Biting her lip, she knew he was worried about her, but she could not help but feel angry
when she remembered how he chose to call the cops.
Suddenly, her phone began to ring. It was a call from Simon, but it was too late for her to
turn off her phone. It continued to ring as though it would not stop until she picked up the
call.
After hesitating. Amanda answered the call and placed it to her ear. Before she could say
anything, she heard Simon’s anxious voice yelling, “Amanda! Where have you been? Why
did you run away like that? Is it because I called the cops? My rationality told me we
should call the cops because that’s the quickest way to find Aiden. His voice sounded tired
and raspy as if he had not slept all night.
“Simon, I’m fine. We might be able to find Aiden soon, so don’t worry.”
“Amanda, where are you? Please come back. I’m worried something might happen to
you…”
Since she could not reveal too much to Simon, she waited until he finished and hung up
before deciding to keep her phone turned off. At that moment, the bathroom door opened,
and Elias came out with a white towel around his hips. His wet hair was stuck to his

“Your turn.”
Amanda was silent, thinking, why do I feel like the atmosphere’s a little strange?
Now that Elias had finished his shower and asked her to take hers, what would happen
next? Would the appropriate progress not be that they sleep together?
It was then the woman’s moan sounded from the room beside them again in crescendo. It
was… simply outrageous.
“F*ck this…” Elias could not help but curse. How was anyone going to sleep tonight?
Meanwhile, Amanda bowed her head, wanting the floor to swallow her whole. That was the
only room left, so there were no other options. How were they going to get past tonight?
Suddenly, she noticed the television on the wall and went to grab the remote. Then, she
turned it on and increased the volume, successfully covering most of the moaning from
the room next door. “Here. You can’t hear it anymore, right? You can go to bed now.”
Elias glanced at her and retorted, “How am I going to sleep like this?” He leaned against
the bed and began making calls, arranging for his men to search specific places.
After looking at the busy man, Amanda quietly entered the bathroom. It had been a tiring
day for her as well, and since it was a hot summer day, she felt uncomfortably sticky and
needed a shower.
After carefully locking the door, the stood behind it for a while, worried that Kitas might
barge in again like last time. Though she thought he might not do it again, she had indeed
witnessed how ruthless he could be back at the pool party. Despite her cries, he did not

She stood at the door for a long while waiting When it sounded like Elias was not moving
around, she felt relieved and began removing her clothes. Then, she stood under the
shower, letting the warm water hat her body
Outside the bathroom, Elias lay in bed after hanging up the phone, listening to the sound
of running water from the bathroom, and began imagining the scene of the woman’s body
under the shower Her curvy figure and snowy-white skin.
Then, he could not help but be reminded of the night from the pool party Four years ago,
he could not remember when he dept with Amanda or how she got pregnant with that
child. However, he remembered how her reluctance transformed into enjoyment while
lying under him. This time, he knew who he had slept with and remembered every detail
of it.
A smile smeared across his lips, drowning in utter reminiscence..
Suddenly, the bathroom door opened.
Amanda came out wearing a bathrobe wrapped tightly around her while staring vigilantly
at Elias on the bed It was like she was entering dangerous territory.
Her gaze annoyed him. What’s the meaning of this? Does she think I’m a pervert or
something?
Td suggest you stop looking at me like I’m a pervert. I don’t like that.”
She was taken aback and stammered, ‘I I’m not. You’re being oversensitive.”
“Isn’t it because I slept with you last time? Is sleeping with your ex-husband something
difficult to accept?*
Is that something a sane human would say? Amanda did not want to argue with the
scmbag because he was unreasonable. However, she needed his help, so she could only
endure it. Just go to sleep. I’ll call you if a call comes in.” She wanted to coax him to sleep
like how she would with Aiden. This man was simply
annoying
I can’t sleep. Elias replied.

softly, “Is it that good? We can still hear her through the loud TV…”
that, Elias scoffed and teased her. “You screamed even louder than her last time. Was it
that good?”
Amanda’s eyes widened as her face instantly turned pink. Does this sc*mbag have to be
so direct? With an angry expression, she gnashed her teeth, demanding. “Elias! Shut up
now!”
Once she finished speaking, they heard screams coming from the room next door again. It
was so
aying that she felt her head was alonut to exploate
While looking at her angry expression, Elias smiled even brighter. He then lay on the bed
and closed his eyes, speaking slowly. “Don’t forget what you promised me I’m going to
bed Remember to wake me up it
there’s a call
Afterward, he fell asleep instantly again.
Amanda looked at the sleeping man, whose handsome face displayed his vivid exhaustion
She kept quiet and tucked the man in the bed before sitting quietly on the couch and
staring at the phone, afraid she might miss a call.
At the same time, Dick brought the child and found a hotel for the night, and Grace’s call
arrived as promised. Hello, Miss Murphy. Yes, we’re here in a city called Folkshield and
heading toward a rural area. You must know that it’s hard to drive at night, right? But I’ll
get rid of him before sunrise, so don’t worry”
She ordered from her end, “Remember. You must leave him in the poorest and most
secluded village, where no one would think to look.”
