Entwined Destinies: Captured Hearts

Chapter 942 When They First Met

Stanford’s pale face looked sulky, “Who did that?”Atwood stared at Stanford and said, “The fallen Bailey family. They held grudges on the Nelson family back then, so they messed with Matthew’s car. Matthew was initially the Baileys’ target, but…”Atwood stopped. He didn’t know how to tell Stanford the rest of what happened. Abbott allowed Atwood to investigate what happened previously, and he also allowed Atwood to learn about the truth down to every detail. Only a few people knew about what happened after all this time. Abbott got another person to impersonate the maid who worked in the mansion when the accident happened. Coral was the only maid Abbott knew who knew what happened, but Coral passed away a few years ago. So, Abbott got another old lady to impersonate Coral and asked her to tell Atwood what happened in the car accident. The old lady impersonated Coral, but she said was true. Of course, Atwood thought that was the real Coral. Abbott was experienced after all. Atwood totally didn’t felt anything strange under Abbott’s arrangements. Stanford felt impatient, “What? Don’t make me guess.””Boyce was the driver because Amanda knew it was Lucy’s birthday, but Matthew wasn’t in the house that day. So, Boyce drove them out to buy a cake. Then, they got into the car accident on the way,” Atwood tried his best to illustrate what happened with the shortest version he could come out with.”If I remembered correctly, that was your mother’s birthday, wasn’t it? Amanda wanted to buy a cake for your mother. The car accident was a plot, and Amanda and Boyce were a victim as well. They just got lucky…””Stop it,” Stanford stopped Atwood out of a sudden. He tried his best to cover it up, but his voice was shaking, “Get out.”Atwood didn’t move. He consoled Stanford, “Don’t blame yourself. Luckily Mrs. James was alright.””Get out!” Stanford shouted. Then, he lowered his voice, “Leave me alone.”Stanford was weak, and he panicked. He was no longer the dominant and cold person he used to be. Stanford was only a human who did mistakes and didn’t know how to make it up. Atwood didn’t dare to leave. Stanford looked terrible right now. He consoled Stanford, “Mrs. James is fine. You still have a chance to make it up to her.”Stanford looked at Atwood with tears in his eyes, “What do you know?””What do you know?”Stanford shouted. He was mad at himself. Stanford was afraid that Amanda wouldn’t forgive him, and he was even more afraid that he would lose W??. n?ve????m?.co?his child. Stanford no longer felt belong after his mother passed away. He neglected the warmth Amanda brought him when they were staying together because of the grudges he was holding on to. Stanford had imagined so many times to have a child of his own. In fact, he had a child, but he wasn’t sure if the child would still be alive. Atwood knew that Stanford would be emotional when he found out the truth, but he thought Stanford would be able to calm down. Atwood never expected that Stanford would be so mad. Stanford stood up from the couch. Perhaps it was because of the big movements, or he had lost balance. Stanford’s leg tripped on the side table. Atwood wanted to go and help him, but Stanford rejected his help. Then, Stanford got upstairs staggering. Atwood felt worried, and he followed Stanford, “Mr. James.””Leave me alone, will you?” Stanford raised his voice. Atwood said, “I’ll be downstairs. Call my name if you need anything.”Stanford ignored Atwood. He walked into the room after he got upstairs. The ultrasound report was still

on the bed. Stanford walked over, and suddenly, his knee felt weak. He knelt on the ground. He felt so powerless that he couldn’t even stand up. Stanford reached for the ultrasound report and leaned beside the bed. Everyone thought Stanford was a strong person, but at this moment, his eyes went red. The truth about the grudges Stanford held on to all these years wasn’t as what he thought. He was wrong.???.(n)?????????.c??Not only Stanford was wrong, he even hurt a woman who loved him. Stanford had lost the most precious thing for him. Atwood was sitting on the couch downstairs. He stared at the stairs and wanted to check on Stanford. However, Atwood was afraid that it would disturb Stanford. So, he waited for Stanford downstairs. Days after days…Atwood stayed in the villa and never left. At the same time, in the international airport. Amanda walked out of the arrival gate. Gerben walked over to welcome her. Amanda looked pretty after the surgery. However, he liked his original look better. Amanda looked ???.??v??S?o?e.?o?sweet and warm in her original look. Gerben helped Amanda to take her luggage. He asked her, “Did it go well?”Amanda nodded. She asked Gerben about what happened in the past month when she wasn’t in the country.”Everything went according to our plan. Stanford invested the remaining capital. I’ve done some calculations, and the amount was three billion, including the last two times he invested. Plus, the share price of his company decreased. Stanford loses quite an amount of money. Furthermore, he had been drowning himself in work after you left. According to his staff, Stanford was quite dedicated to working earlier. He spent most of his time in the office and in dealing with the suppliers. However, he hadn’t been at the office these few days.”Amanda seemed expressionless. She said, “It’s about time for Aegis Security Services to announce its bankruptcy.”It meant the capital Stanford invested in Aegis Security Services was going to be a total loss. Aegis Security Services was only a shell corporation.”Everything between Stanford and I should end as well,” Amanda looked calm. Amanda wasn’t being emotional at all. She wasn’t even holding grudges. Amanda knew exactly what she wanted. After getting out of the airport, Gerben opened the car door for Amanda. Amanda got into the car. Then, Gerben got into the drier seat. He didn’t start the engine immediately. Instead, he turned and looked at Amanda, “You looked determined, but I felt like you still have feelings on Stanford.”Amanda stared at Gerben, “Why did you say so?””Wasn’t him the reason why you purposely went through surgery to rebuild your face?”Amanda chuckled, “I wanted to look like the original me because I wanted to end things with him ???. no?(e)??H???.??mlooking like myself.”No covering up. Amanda wanted to use her original face and name. Just like when they first met. Things should also be ended like how they first met. Amanda loved Stanford, and she was sincere to him. And now, it was time for her to end things as herself.Please check at N/ôvel(D)rama.Org.
