The Barrister's Love in Town

Chapter 498 You Should Hate Me
“Let her in.”
“Yes.”
Elias looked at the executives in front of him and said, “The future of the company relies on all of you for the next half month. If
there’s anything, call me. Alright, you can go back to
work now.”
The office door opened, and one by one, the people left. Then, Rosie walked in, holding a thermos in her hand.
“Elias, I see that you’ve been busy with work lately and not getting enough rest. So, I made some soup for you. Have some. I
won’t take up much of your time. I’ll leave once you finish.”
He slowly stood up and walked toward the reception area. Then, he saw her open the thermos and pour a small bowl of soup on
the side.
The man sat expressionlessly on the sofa, not even glancing at the bowl of soup in front of him. Instead, he looked at her and
said, “You don’t have to do this. The Winters‘ chefs are hired to do such things.”
“But it’s different. I made it myself...”
Before she could finish her sentence, the man interrupted her, “I don’t need it. Besides, I’ll be going abroad for half a month.”
“What? Why?”
“That’s my business. I don’t see why I should tell you anything.”
She fell silent after hearing his blunt dismissal.
Then, her heart turned cold once again. Why couldn’t this man fall in love with her not matter what she did? She could only get a
little bit of tenderness through hypnosis. Even so, it would disappear in an instant.
“Elias, why are you always so cold to me? What did I do wrong...”

“You didn’t do anything wrong. I know you’ve been good to me, and I know what you want. But I’m sorry. I can’t give it to you. It
doesn’t matter what has happened between Amanda and me. I am still her husband. As for whether that child is mine... I want to
verify it myself”
“You still won’t leave her even though Amanda has betrayed you and deceived you?” Tears welled up in Rosie’s eyes.

Unfortunately for Elias, he would get a headache whenever a woman started crying before him. So, he pinched his brow and
patiently explained, “Of course, I won’t ever bother with a woman who has betrayed me, but... It doesn’t matter what the
outcome of my relationship with Amanda will be because it won’t affect us. We are only suitable as siblings, not as lovers. I don’t
have any feelings for you. Do you understand me?”
Rosie’s heart sank as if she had fallen into an abyss.
It was clear and hurtful, as if she had been given a death sentence. It was impossible for him. to ever love her.
Tears welled up in her eyes. “Elias, why? Can’t we be together even without Amanda’s meddling? Can’t feelings be cultivated?
Why is it impossible for us?”
She truly didn’t understand what she lacked compared to Amanda. Just why couldn’t she capture this man’s attention?
“To put it gently, we’re not compatible. To put it bluntly, you’re not my type. I’m telling you right now that it won’t change anything,
even if you get plastic surgery. So, I’m sorry.”
After saying that, Elias stood up and went back to his desk, grabbing his suit jacket. “I have another meeting to attend. You can
leave on your own later or have my driver send you home.”
Rosie looked at the soup she had spent three hours cooking. Yet, the man left without even tasting a single spoonful.
Tears continued to roll down her cheeks, but she had no expression on her face because her heart had died completely.
She had done so much. In fact, she even went as far as to portray Amanda as a kidnapper. Yet, Elias still refused to love her.
How ridiculous.
Suddenly, her expression turned somewhat sinister as she muttered to herself, “Since I can’t have him, I’ll destroy everything.
What I can’t have, you, Amanda, can forget about having

too.”
Let’s go to hell together!
All of you can forget ever having a happy ending!
Amanda lay in the hospital bed but couldn’t fall asleep no matter what she did.

Suddenly, the door to the ward behind her was pushed open. Thus, she immediately turned to look only to find Elias standing
there.
So, she propped herself up and looked at him. “Why are you here so late?”
“It’s nothing. I finished my work and came to see you on the way.”
“Oh...
Suddenly, she felt awkward, not knowing what to say.
Elias looked at the white bandage on her wrist. It seemed that no blood had seeped through after the dressing was changed. He
felt somewhat relieved.
“Tell me about the child. What was I doing when you were giving birth?”
Amanda hesitated for a moment. “Our relationship wasn’t good in the past. You probably didn’t like me when you married me.
So, we married in secret. After a year of marriage, you were never home. Then, we got divorced. After the divorce, I found out I
was pregnant. I gave birth to the child overseas, so you weren’t by my side. Frankly, I didn’t know what were doing.”
After she finished speaking, Elias Winters fell into complete silence.

He initially wanted to regain his lost memories. Now, he learned right from the supposedly most important person in his life that
he used to be a deplorable person.

He wasn’t even by her side when she was giving birth?
“You got pregnant after the divorce. Why didn’t you tell me?”
“I told you before the divorce, but you didn’t believe me. You didn’t believe that I would get. pregnant with your child. So, you
insisted on getting a divorce.”
After Amanda finished speaking, the man fell into silence once again. He realized that recovering his memory was another trial
for him. It turned out that he had done so many terrible things in the past.
Elias looked at her and said hesitatingly, “Then... you should hate me. Why did you choose to remarry me?”
“Huh. Why? I have repeatedly asked myself this question too. You were so cruel to me back then! Why would I choose to
remarry you again? Maybe it’s because of love, but later on, you treated me very well really well. It also didn’t hurt that you were
also good to our son. It it weren’t for whatever this is, maybe we would have continued to be happy like that
The person right at the top of Amanda’s sh’tlist was none other than Melissa Walters That
cruel woman who destroyed their family’s happiness just because of personal gain.
Love...
When Amanda mentioned the word ‘love, the man’s cold heart gradually began to crumble. and melt. His heart was willing to
melt for Amanda.
Now, he found himself willing to believe Amanda’s words. He wanted to believe that their son was his and that the DNA test at
home was fake.
“Let’s depart in three days. I can’t wait any longer.” He was eager to uncover the truth and to see their son, with whom he had
been conversing for the past two days. Would the child resemble him more, or Amanda?
“Are you sure? I’m concerned about your well–being... Are you sure you can handle this?”
“It doesn’t matter. I need to make this trip. You need not worry about my health. I’m fine.”
Although he sensed that something was amiss with his body, he could no longer concern himself with that. If Aiden was indeed
his son, he couldn’t bear to leave his child in danger.
