Chapter 438 Don’t Go!

At first, the woman in his dreams always followed him, but he could never see the woman’s face.

But gradually, that woman disappeared. He desperately searched for her but couldn’t replace her. Thefeeling in his dreams was so strong as if he had lost the most important thing in his life. It felt likesomething even more important than his own life.

“Don’t go!”

Suddenly, he woke up from his dream.

Elias abruptly opened his eyes in the pitch-black darkness. The feeling of loss and emptiness.overwhelmed him as if his heart had been hollowed out making him feel uncomfortable and depressed.

Upon hearing his voice, Rosie quickly rushed into the room.

These past few days, she didn’t dare to enter without Elias’ permission, but when she heard his cry,she thought something had happened, so she rushed in.

“Eli, are you okay?”

Rosie looked at the man on the bed with concern. His forehead was covered in a cold sweat as if hehad just had a nightmare.

“Eli, did you have a nightmare?”

He sat up, holding his forehead. She quickly poured a glass of water and handed it to him. “Drink somewater, Eli.”

Elias took the glass and drank two sips before placing it on the bedside table.

I’m fine, you can go now.”

Rosie wanted to get closer to this man, but she felt that Elias still rejected her even if he had lost bismemory.

Even with Amanda gone, could Elias still not love her?

Elias locked up at the woman in front of him. “When can I go to the company? I can’t stay here all thetime. It’s suffocating.”

You can’t go anytime soon. The doctor recommended that you stay in bed for at least three months. Ithasn’t been that long yet, and your body hasn’t fully recovered-

Before she could finish her sentence, Elias impatiently interrupted, “Am I unable to take care of myselfnow? Why can’t I go to the company? Aren’t you confining me by keeping me locked up here everyday?”

Rosie looked at him with a distressed expression and shook her head frantically. “No, how could I? I’mjust worried about your health…

“Then don’t. I’m much better now.”

“Alright, then. I’ll go make arrangements…” She turned and left the room, closing the door behind her.

At that moment, a sinister smile appeared on Rosie’s face.

It seemed that Elias still hadn’t completely given up on Amanda. She would make him completelybelieve that she belonged to him.

In the evening.

Ding-dong. The doorbell rang.

It was dinner time, and Elias and Rosie were sitting in the dining room, ready to eat.

The nanny went to open the door and shouted, “Mr. Momsey, why are you here?”

Taylor was here.

This was also part of Rosie’s plan.

Originally, Taylor didn’t want to deal with his sister’s affairs anymore, but he couldn’t win against hissister’s persuasion, so he agreed, but only for the last time.

After Taylor entered the dining room, he first observed Elias’ current state. He confirmed that theunfamiliar look in Elias’ eyes was indeed the look of someone who had lost their memory.

“Taylor. Why are you here, my brother?” Rosie pretended not to know anything.

Taylor was too focused on Elias and casually replied, “Oh, I just came to see you guys.”

He sat across from Elias and stared at the latter as if trying to see through this man.

Facing Taylor’s scrutiny, Elias looked back at the man with an arrogant attitude and said bluntly. “Whatthe hell are you looking at?”

In the next second, however, Taylor laughed. “Tsk… Even after losing your memory, your temper hasn’tchanged at all. I thought it would change a little.”

“Who are you?” Elias was extremely impatient.

He heard Rosie addressing him as brother just now. Could this be Rosie’s brother?

“Eli, this is my brother, Taylor Momsey.”

Elias juĝr nodded and continued eating, not intending to pay any attention to this man. He foundhimself quite annoyed by Taylor.

Taylor looked at Elias’ current demeanor and couldn’t help but sigh. “I never expected this. You reallylost your memory. Do you seriously not remember who I am?”

When fus sister told him that Elias had lost his memory, he didn’t believe a word of it. He thought hissister was just trying to replace a way to ask for his help again.

Elias couldn’t be bothered to deal with Taylor and continued eating his meal.

Yet, Taylor couldn’t stop laughing, feeling that this was karma. How pathetic it was for Elias to lose hismemory!

“Taylor!” Rosie looked at her brother, who was laughing in a gloating manner, and gave him a look to

remind him not to forget the purpose of their visit.

“Alright, alright. I got it.”

Taylor looked at Elias again and said meaningfully, “After your accident, my sister has been by yourside. all the time, waiting for you to wake up. You can’t let her down.”

Elias glanced at him coldly without saying a word.

Taylor and Rosie exchanged glances. Taylor continued, “I heard that you’re quite eager to go to thecompany.”

“What about it?”

Finally, a reaction. Taylor cleared his throat and said, “Your body hasn’t fully recovered yet, but you’rerushing to go to the company. You’re just making my sister worry if you do that. So, I have a win-winsolution for you.

Elias put down his cutleries and looked at Taylor, waiting for the latter’s proposal.

“Take my sister with you to the company. This way, you can focus on your work, and my sister can feelat case. It’s a win-win situation.”

After Taylor finished speaking, Rosie felt relieve. He finally said it.

If she had said these words herself, she would seem too manipulative.

Elias glanced at Rosie and asked, “Do you want to? My work might be boring, and I might have towork. late. Are you sure?”

“Of course, Eli. I just worry about you. I want to be by your side so I can feel at ease. How about Ibecome

ir secretary?”

Another new proposal emerged, and Elias suddenly felt a headache coming on. These siblings werereally annoying.

It’s okay. Just tay by my side. Elias immediately stopped her.

“Okay.”A shy smile appeared on Rosie’s face.

Elias couldnt help but feel helpless. Was this truly the woman he had chosen? Why did he feel nothingtoward ater, even after losing his memory? Had his tastes changed as well?

After finishing their meal, Rosie went to the kitchen to help the nanny clean up the dishes while Taylorgot ready to leave,

Before leaving, Taylor said meaningfully to Elias, “Don’t let my sister down again. She has sacrificedtoo much for you. If you hadn’t woken up this time, I’m afraid she would have gone crazy.”
