Sheena was dumbfounded by his question!
What kind of bizarre thought process was that?
She just reassured him last night that she was not the fickle type!
Had he already forgotten, or did he simply not believe her?
Feeling frustrated, she sat next to Elliot, intending to use a bit of force to pry open his arms and give
him a proper lesson on trust. However, she suddenly noticed his curled–up posture.
It triggered a memory from last night when she entered his room, finding him in the dark, huddled near
the floor and door.
Having studied psychology before, Sheena understood that this was an extreme display of anxiety and
a severe lack of security, and her heart ached… NôvelDrama.Org: text © owner.
Since Elliot fell ill, the physical and mental torment seemed to have taken a toll on his mind. In her
presence, he became sensitive and plagued by self–doubt. Despite fearing the loss of her, he felt
undeserving of having her.
His internal struggles were apparent.
During this period, Sheena found it increasingly difficult to recall who he used to be.
The former Elliot, aloof and indifferent, seemed always high and mighty, an arrogant and decisive figure
both in the business world and as a cold–blooded CEO.
Such a proud man was now humbling himself to dust before her.
It hurt Sheena so bad that it felt almost impossible for her to breathe.
She composed herself and lay down behind him, her arm tightly around him, gently whispering, “No.
matter what, it’ll always be you. I only want you for the rest of my life.”
The man she held gradually relaxed.
As he moved his arm, revealing his handsome face. Elliot asked cautiously, “Really?”
Sheena held him even tighter, resting her chin on his shoulder, gently leaning her head against his.
Cheek to cheek, they felt the love they shared for each other.
“Whenever you hesitate or feel uncertain, you can always ask me. My answer will never change,”
Sheena spoke patiently.
Her words had a soothing effect on Elliot’s restless and anxious heart.
“Nana, thank you.”
Sheena smiled, reminding him softly, “We’re a couple, lovers, each other’s soul mate. We’re ant
engaged couple known to the entire nation. You don’t need to thank me.
Elliot turned around, nestling into her embrace, feeling content.
After lying in bed for a while, the two went to the kitchen together to continue preparing lunch. Elliot
cooked, and Sheena managed the seasonings, creating a pleasant division of labor for the simple and
everyday task.
As she woke up late, Sheena took a half–day off, choosing to spend time with Elliot.
The next day, they made breakfast together. While eating, Sheena checked the trending topics and
stumbled upon the Upton Group’s bankruptcy announcement.
Intrigued, she clicked into the news.
Although the Upton family’s wealth and roots were not comparable to the Lawson, Jenkins, and
Nicholls families, they were still significant and well–established.
Sheena anticipated this would be an epic disaster for them, but she did not expect the Upton Group to
face bankruptcy and liquidation in just a few days.
She glanced at Elliot, who was focused on his breakfast.
Handing him the phone, she asked, “Eli, is this your doing?”
