The Barrister's Love in Town

Chapter 90 Elias Blocked Her Car

For the next few days. Amanda was nowhere to be seen at the hospital.

No matter how many times Elias tried calling her, his calls were always met with a busy tone. He began suspect that she had intentionally blocked his number.

As Elias gazed out of the window, he couldn’t help but notice the perpetually gloomy sky. The rain had been pouring relentlessly, mirroring his own somber state of mind.

As the ward door creaked open, he turned around without a hint of emotion on his face. It was none other than Yacob.

“Mr. Winters, did you need me for something?” Yacob asked.

“Help me with the discharge process. I can’t stand being cooped up in this hospital any longer, Elias muttered. Each day felt stagnant and he found it impossible to accomplish anything.

Yacob hesitated and replied, “But your injury hasn’t fully recovered yet. The doctor recommended at least two more weeks of hospitalization.”

“No need. I’ll recover just fine at home, and tomorrow is the anniversary of Yelan’s death,” Elias insisted.

Time seemed to fly by and once again, it was the anniversary of Yelan’s death-a day Elias always reserved. for visiting the cemetery.

At the mention of Yelan, Yacob fell silent and quietly left the ward.

Elias pushed aside his blanket, got up, and walked over to the window. He stared at the sky outside, which was covered in dark, ominous clouds. Gradually, tiny raindrops started appearing on the glass.

It was raining again.

Undeterred, he summoned his resolve and dialed Amanda’s number once more, only to be met with the same disappointing outcome-her phone remained stubbornly out of reach.

Without a shred of doubt, he concluded that she had indeed blocked him.

After completing her evening shift, Amanda eagerly looked forward to returning home and spending time with her son. Today, there would be a new nanny in place as well.

It had taken a long search through the domestic service center to find someone who fit her criteria. Initially, people at the agency found her request for a young and martial arts-skilled caregiver eccentric and unusual.

Amanda was aware that her requirements were somewhat peculiar, but she had become frightened after the incident with Aiden being kidnapped.

Little did she expect to actually find a caregiver who perfectly matched her specific criteria.

The caregiver, possessing a black belt in Taekwondo, was not only remarkably young but also willing to
