No Trespassing! My Aloof Brother-Chapter 442 - 440 Holding Grudges【5 Updates】

Elijah’s behavior was too strange, and too sudden. Compared to the incredibly gentle man he was days ago, it was a world of difference, and it frightened Ella.

She had never been treated so fiercely by a man before; she thought her life was at stake as tears streamed from her eyes.

She wasn’t afraid Elijah would kill her, she just felt heartbroken for her parents facing yet another tragedy.

Thinking of her parents, Ella immediately raised her small hands and grasped Elijah’s wrists, trying to pull his large hands away, but it was to no avail.

Elijah looked at the girl’s tearful face, took a deep breath, and flung her aside, causing Ella to stagger and hit a nearby cabinet.

"Cough... cough... cough..." She coughed while staring at Elijah, thinking that he must have found out she was behind the fire in Liam’s bedroom.

Once she regained her composure and strength, she took a deep breath and complained with grievance: "Why always blame me? He was the one who hurt my brother first, I was just avenging him."

Even though Ella wanted to believe Maya, she couldn’t deny what that woman said, and facing Elijah, she wanted to stand her ground a bit.

To be honest, she was very bothered by Elijah’s attitude towards her earlier, which made her frightened, helpless, and aggrieved.

Ella’s accusation against Liam made Elijah furious; he glared at Ella and angrily scolded: "Do you have water in your brain? How could the Boss kill Ethan? He has no reason to, he’s not insane."

Elijah implied that Ella was crazy because only a mad person would think of burning someone to death.

"He was afraid Maya would like my brother, so he killed him." Ella hoped Elijah would speak to her with patience, even if she did wrong, he shouldn’t be this harsh.

He had said he would be her brother, promised to take care of her and be good to her, so how could he strangle her? How could he be so cruel to her?

Seeing the girl’s aggrieved look, Elijah didn’t harshly scold her anymore, but dismissively said: "Even if Ethan could become the Boss’s love rival, do you think the Boss would resort to murder to resolve a rivalry? He has a hundred ways to make your brother leave the Fifth Miss, and another hundred ways to keep the Fifth Miss by his side. He wouldn’t be foolish enough to stain his hands with blood."

"But you, you let yourself get sold out and then counted the money for them. You better hope the Boss is alright, otherwise, I won’t let you off."

"Also, the person who gave you those pieces of evidence, who exactly are they? Are they someone we all know?"

Ella listened to Elijah’s interrogation, panicked, and immediately moved from the entrance to the sofa, pretending to be calm as she lied: "I don’t know."

Then she asked, "Since you all keep saying the murderer isn’t Liam, then who is the murderer?"

"Once the Boss wakes up, the murderer will be found out." Ella successfully changed the topic, and Elijah stopped pursuing who gave her the evidence.

Seeing Ella’s aggrieved appearance, Elijah’s anger subsided by half, and unwilling to argue further, he turned around to leave, but Ella’s actions had left him utterly disappointed.

Seeing Elijah about to leave, Ella thought of his earlier attitude towards her; she felt as if Elijah was leaving for good, never to pay attention to her again.

So, she quickly chased after him, grabbed Elijah’s hand, and explained: "I didn’t want it to be like this either. When I saw Liam being carried out by medical staff, I was afraid too. I know I’m terrible, but I can’t find balance in my heart. I don’t want my brother to die unjustly."

Ella cared about Elijah, cared about his opinion of her, but she couldn’t control her hatred.

Listening to Ella’s explanation, Elijah shook her hand off and said coldly: "The Boss won’t let him die unjustly, it’s just a matter of time."

The Liam Elijah knew would not tolerate crime. Such a big ordeal wouldn’t go unchecked, it’s just that now isn’t the most appropriate time.

After promising Ella, Elijah closed her room door and left.

At the doorway, Ella listened to the sound of the door shutting coldly, and collapsed into tears.

For a moment, she felt she had lost everything. Her brother was gone, Maya was angry, Elijah was angry too, what should she do? How could she find the real murderer, and would Liam still help her? Ella was at a loss.

Meanwhile, in a hospital ward.

Maya tightly clasped Liam’s large hand, pitifully looked at him, and asked: "Third brother, will you blame me for stopping Elijah from taking Ella to the police station?"

"Aye! You surely blame me, you’re so vengeful usually, once you wake up, you’ll definitely turn against me again. But I have no choice, I can’t let Ella go to jail, please understand, please!"

Just thinking about how when Liam woke up, he’d angrily issue orders to prosecute Ella, and imprison her for life, made Maya uneasy.

She sighed long and helplessly said: "I’m willing to spend the rest of my life with you, can you forgive Ella this once? I won’t ask for your proposal anymore."

Maya was practicing, practicing how to plead with Liam once he woke up.

However, at this moment, the large hand tightly held in her arms was suddenly pulled away.

"Ah..." Suddenly, Maya was so startled she jumped up from her chair, letting out a loud cry.

After the scream, she saw Liam’s eyes slowly open, looking at her with dislike, and even wiping the hand she held twice on the blanket.

In an instant, Maya was dumbfounded, thinking about what was wrong with Liam? Did he hear everything she said earlier? Is he blaming her, despising her? Is he angry that she left him at home on the day he fell ill?

Maya felt aggrieved and guilty, carefully approached the bedside, sat down next to him again, and with a finger poked his arm, asked: "Third brother, are you angry with me?"

Liam simply rolled his eyes at her, "Hmph," and quickly turned his head away, no longer looking at her.

At this point, Maya pouted pitifully and said: "I’ll call a doctor to check your body."

After she said that, she raised her small hand and pressed the alarm bell by the bed.

A moment later, doctors and nurses arrived to perform an examination on Liam, during which Maya took the chance to call Christopher and the others to inform them Liam had woken up.

Following a round of examinations, the doctor reassuringly said: "Mrs. Spencer, Mr. Spencer is out of danger. A few more days of rest in the hospital and he can be discharged."

"Thank you!"

"No problem, we’ll arrange for a full body check this afternoon, you can feed Mr. Spencer now."

"Alright."

With a few simple instructions, the doctor left, leaving the room again with just Liam and Maya.

As Maya was about to help Liam sit up, Liam frowned deeply, looked at her, and asked with disdain: "Who are you?"

Spoiler: Third brother pretends to have amnesia, intentionally teasing Maya. Tomorrow’s plot is quite amusing.
