“I just thought it was too much of a coincidence. Why is it always on your birthday? It’s my
fault since I should have reminded you not to go out yesterday-
Elias’ eyes were filled with impatience. “It has nothing to do with you. Don’t keep taking
the blame for everything”
“But…. I’m scared that my brother is really haunting you. Did he see that I tried hurting
myself recently and thought you were bullying me so- Grace tried directing their
conversation with a mysterious tone toward her brother Yelan so everyone would think it
was karmic retribution and his spirit had returned for revenge.
As soon as she mentioned him, the ward became deathly quiet. Howard, who had been
scornful, suddenly turned pale as he thought of something, and his expression became
complicated.
The bedridden man suddenly snorted. “Are you implying that Yelan is taking revenge on
me? Why didn’t he just kill me yesterday? It was an amazing chance because it would’ve
taken days for anyone to discover I had died there.”
Elias was already tired of everything being connected to karma. No matter what happened
help thinking about it involuntarily.
“Yelan knows I fancy you, so he would never do that!” Grace looked extremely certain.
He was speechless.
Meanwhile, Howard stood up abruptly while leaning on his walking stick. “I’ll get a master
fortune divine your future. Rest well and I’ll come back to visit you again tonight.”
He then walked out with the help of his cane. The elderly man hadn’t been so
superstitious before this bu after his son had died and his daughter-in-law became mad,
he had begun to believe intensely in those sorts of things. He started asking around for
protective amulets and praying for Elias’ safety as well.
Elias’ expression was freezing as he looked at his grandfather’s stooped figure before
glancing at Grace. “You should go too. I want to rest.”
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtHe lay back on the bed, refusing to look at her anymore.
“Then you should rest, Elias. I’ll come to see you again tomorrow.” Her hands clenched at
her sides in reaction to his frigid attitude, though she had to suppress the feeling.
The man didn’t reply but closed his eyes instead, pretending to sleep. Grace was
extremely furious but couldn’t do anything, so she turned around and left.
It’s okay. I’ll take my time. I’m not impatient.
Besides, she knew his temper well. He would never change his decision quickly.
As soon as Grace left the hospital, she received a call. After looking around cautiously to
check that no one was around, she found a corner to take the call. She didn’t expect
Amanda to have arrived at the hospital

at that very moment and walked past behind her.
Amanda had come to the hospital after sending her son to kindergarten. She had just
parked her car and was about to enter the ward. When she passed the corridor, she saw a
familiar-looking woman talking on the phone. She glanced at the talking woman for
several moments before realizing it was Grace.
Amanda was about to walk directly past Grace since they didn’t have any love lost
between them. I highly doubt we’ll be greeting each other with false courtesy.
However, as she walked past Grace quickly, she heard a strange conversation.
“Have you cleaned everything up? Will the police trace things back to me?”
“They won’t. Don’t worry. I have dealt with everything nicely so no matter how the police
investigate the accident, they will only find that it was due to the brakes malfunctioning
but not that it was deliberate.”
Grace’s mouth curved into a smile. “That’s good. Leave quickly before the police come.
There are no closed-circuit cameras along that stretch of road anyway.”
“I know.”
Amanda couldn’t hear what was being said on the other end, just Grace mentioning the
police and camera footage before she left the hospital.
Amanda muttered to herself as she watched Grace’s frail silhouette. “What did that all
mean?”
The words ‘police’ and ‘camera footage didn’t seem to have any connection to Grace and
felt like something was being kept secret. Amanda couldn’t understand it for now and
instead prepared to go to Elias’ ward to see how he was.
When she arrived outside the ward, Yacob stood up at the sight of her. There you are. Miss
Bailey”
“Hi. I’m going in to see him.”
She knocked on the door but didn’t get any response from the man inside, so she decided
to push the door open and enter the room. However, she saw that the man had his back
on her as he lay on the bed. seemingly asleep.
Suddenly, the man spoke coldly. “Get out.”
She was surprised since she thought he had fallen asleep. “So, you weren’t sleeping”
Elias cold expression turned warmer after he heard her voice and he turned to look at her,
his eyes brightening somewhat. However, he then looked moody again. “Why did you
come so late?”
“At least I’m here. Why are you complaining that I’m late? 1 must have allowed such a bad
habit to develop.” Amanda couldn’t believe this. He had said he would change his temper
but that was utterly impossible.
She walked toward him, planning to pour him a glass of water since the doctor had said he
could only have water and not food. However, she noticed the half-empty glass of water
on the cabinet which hadn’t been finished. Recalling that she had seen Grace who was
taking a call outside, she now understood what

had happened.
Amanda settled on the chair. “I was about to pour you a glass of water, but it looks like
Grace has already fed you some. That saves me some effort.”
“How do you know she came?” He frowned.
“I saw her coincidentally.” Her smile was fake and emotionless.
Elias didn’t know what to say to that and tried to explain. “I didn’t ask her to come but she
insisted on coming. I didn’t even tell her about the accident-”
“You don’t have to explain yourself since I can imagine it already. She must have called
the butler and heard what happened. She fancies you a lot, so she would definitely come
to the hospital to see you.”
Amanda’s unbothered attitude annoyed Elias and he couldn’t stand it. “Have you come to
anger me?”
“You are so ungrateful. I’m here to visit you, aren’t I? How have I angered you? If I really
wanted to do that, why did I go out into the heavy rain to find you last night?”
He replied after recalling something. “Oh, yes. You wanted to tell me something before I
fell unconsciou in your car. I didn’t hear it, so can you repeat it?”
He could recall indistinctly that she wanted to tell him something. He had tried to remain
awake but couldn’t hold on anymore.
She froze upon hearing that. So, was her courage in saying the truth last night all wasted?
Did the man not hear a word of it?
She didn’t really have the bravery to repeat it in front of an alert-looking Elias though,
feeling that he might lose his temper after knowing the truth just like she had dreamed
last night. He might even be so furious that he would choke her to death. Besides, it
currently wasn’t the right time. She would have to see how Elias behaved after this..
“It’s nothing. I just wanted to attract your attention so you could remain awake.”
