“Can’t you learn? Is it so difficult to learn to cook for the woman you love? Or is this the
extent of your sincerity in pursuing me?”
She was deliberately making things hard for Elias in an attempt to let him have a taste of
his own medicine.
Knowing that Amanda was filled with resentment, the man remained silent.
When she got up and left, he stood up as well, offering. Then let me send you home.”
“There’s no need. I want to take a cab back. You promised to fix your temper, remember?”
In reality, she was worried that they would run into Aiden if Elias sent her home.
The man fell silent once again. He did promise to fix his bad temper.
Suppressing his dissatisfaction, he followed Amanda out of the World Trade Center and
watched her flag down a cab and leave.
He then drove his car out of the parking lot and followed the cab, wanting nothing more
than to ensure her safe arrival home.
In truth, he understood why Amanda treated him this way.
He deserved such treatment for all the wrongs he had done.
After following Amanda all the way back to Galaxy Bay, Elias parked his car in a dark
corner and stayed there for a long time.
As he recalled the various wrongdoings he had committed against Amanda four years ago,
he couldn’t help realizing that each one of them was quite excessive.
His phone vibrated all of a sudden.
Frowning, he only glanced at it as he didn’t feel like answering the call. However, he
quickly picked up the phone when he saw that it was from the nursing home.
“Did something happen?”
The voice of the attending doctor came from the other end of the line. “Mr. Elias, your
mother’s condition seems to be deteriorating. She keeps asking to see you. Do you have
time to come over?”
Elias’ expression changed abruptly. “What happened to her?”
His parents had always been a mystery, having disappeared for many years. No one in his
circle knew the whereabouts of his parents; it was as if they had disappeared from the
face of the earth.
Howard might have claimed to the public that his son and daughter-in-law had settled
abroad, but that
was not true.
“I’m afraid I can’t say for sure, but your mother’s condition has been getting worse. I’m
sure you are aware

of that. It might be a good idea to come and see her if you have the time.”
“I’m on my way.”

After hanging up the phone, Elias immediately turned his car around and headed toward
the nursing
home.
Come to think of it, it seems like I haven’t visited my mother in half a year.
It wasn’t that Elias didn’t want to go, but every time he went, his presence would always
trigger his mother and cause her mental state to deteriorate even further.
Elias arrived at the South Hill Care after nearly an hour’s drive.
Either due to the late hour or its inherently lifeless atmosphere, the place was eerily quiet.
After parking the car, he made his way to the upscale ward where his mother resided.
As he entered the room, he saw his mother’s frail figure in a patient’s gown as she sat in a
rocking chair. muttering incessantly, “Waldo, all of this is retribution… Why do you still not
believe in karma?”
Waldo Winters was the name of Elias’ father.
Elias walked up to his mother and kneeled slowly, observing her exhausted appearance.
“Is that you, Elias? Son.. Is it really you? Am I dreaming?” His mother looked at the
handsome man before her and hesitated to believe what she was seeing. After all, she
hadn’t seen her son in a long time.
In a deep, resonant voice, Elias replied softly, “Mom, it’s me.”
“Elias, you’ve finally come! I was so scared!”
Jennifer Morales embraced him tightly right after she said that. She seemed to have been
genuinely frightened, seeing as how tears poured out of her eyes.
Elias gently patted his mother’s back. “What are you afraid of? Are you unhappy staying
here? I can find another nursing home for you.”
Jennifer shook her head vigorously and broke away from his embrace. “No, it’s not that.
I’m afraid. retribution will fall upon you again. I’m really scared.”
“Mom, stop imagining things!” His face darkened the moment he heard the word
‘retribution Elias despised that word.
However, his mother grabbed his arm in a firm hold. “Have you forgotten how your father
died? It was all retribution. How could he do something as cruel as making someone else’s
son be tortured to death in his place? And then he died in a car accident after he was
crushed to a pulp. What is this, if it’s not retribution?!”
Ever since Yelan’s tragic death years ago, strange events had plagued the Winters Family.

Waldo consecutively got into car accidents, ultimately tragically dying in the last one.
Since then, Jennifer had suffered a mental breakdown and had to be sent to this nursing
home.
The worst thing was that Waldo had passed away on Elias’ birthday.
Because of that, Elias never celebrated his birthday again.
Four years ago, Amanda took the initiative to celebrate Elias’ birthday, only to have him
leave her pale with fear when he exploded in a fit of anger.
“Stop it!”
Elias roared in frustration, completely silencing his mother, who then stared blankly at
him.
Impatiently, he stood up. “I thought you wanted to see me. If you’re only going to talk
about these things, I’ll leave. Take care and rest well.”
He was fed up with his mother’s belief in retribution every time he visited her. It gave him

His mother grabbed his arm. “Son, even if it’s for the sake of your future children, you
need to be careful. Aren’t you afraid that your children will be hit by karma?”
Children…
Elias tall figure froze in place and a hint of shock appeared in his pitch-black eyes.
Did I lose my child because of… retribution?
Noticing his silence, Jennifer continued, “Hurry up and marry Grace. Yelan will leave us
alone once you marry her. The only thing he was concerned about was his sister. As long
as you marry his sister, everything will be fine!”
Elias’ annoyance was visible on his face. Even though he couldn’t bear to listen to another
word from his mother, he didn’t want to upset her, considering her fragile state of mind.
He managed to muster a response, albeit insincere. “I’ll consider it. With that, he retracted
his arm and turned to leave the ward.
As the door closed, the bathroom door creaked open and Grace emerged from inside.
Jennifer gazed at Grace and sighed in a tearful voice. “I hope he listens to me. Grace, you
mustn’t leave Elias. You really mustn’t. Nothing must happen to him; he’s the sole heir of
the Winters Family.”
Grace feigned a meek demeanor as she kneeled before Jennifer. “Mrs. Winters, please rest
assured. I will never leave Elias. I don’t want to be apart from him. He’s the one who
doesn’t want me…”
“Grace, my dear. I believe Elias will come around. He said he will consider it, so he
definitely will. After all, you’re the only daughter-in-law I accept.”
Jennifer gently caressed Grace’s head. She was utterly convinced that Grace was the key
to breaking this karmic cycle.
“Thank you, Mrs. Winters. I will be a supportive partner to Elias.” Even though Grace
nodded with a smile,
