“I specifically came to pick you up to go back to E&S Haven, and you won’t even come out to see me?
Isn’t that unappreciative?”
The response to Sheena’s remark was a prolonged silence, seeming like an acknowledgment.
Sheena shrugged with an indifferent smile, saying, “Alright, I’m leaving
Hearing this, Elliot breathed a sigh of relief. He waited a few more minutes until he heard the sound of
the room door closing.
The atmosphere outside seemed tranquil and silent; only then did he cautiously ask Lionel, “Is Nana
gone?”
“Yes, Mr. Jenkins.”
With the confirmation, Elliot tentatively opened the door.
Seeing Lionel standing outside the bathroom door, he completely let down his guard and walked out.
However, just around the corner, he was forcefully pressed against the wall.
Sheena gripped his jaw, observing the lip prints on his face and neck, teasingly saying, “Well, no
wonder you dare not face me. Look at these cute lip prints. That’s quite a party, Elliot!”
“Nana, L…” He trailed off, his eyes turning red, pale in shock as he could not find the words.
Sheena originally thought about lifting his clothes for another round of mockery, but upon second
thought, she was afraid of taking things too far and genuinely upsetting him.
So, without saying a word, she turned around and left the room without looking back.
Elliot was about to chase after her when Lionel immediately held him back.
“Mr. Jenkins, don’t worry! 1’ll make sure to persuade Ms. Sheena to come back!”
After saying that, Lionel ran out, quickly catching up with Sheena. The two of them reached an empty
corridor, and the laughter they had been holding in burst out uncontrollably, echoing through the
passage.
Lionel, holding his stomach, was on the verge of cramps.
It was the first time he had played such a prank on Elliot, and it was so much fun! This text is © NôvelDrama/.Org.
However, amid the amusement, Lionel still had some concerns.
“Ms. Sheena, how do you plan to smooth things over? He’s stubborn, and if not handled well and he
gets too angry and loses his rationality, he might make extreme decisions.”
Sheena also knew when to stop but thinking about the little plaything she had seen on a certain online
marketplace during the day, she felt compelled not to let Elliot off too easily.
Giving in first? Not a chance.
Sheena playfully hooked a finger toward Lionel, her lips forming a mischievous smile,
“When you go in, just tell him..
Listening to her plan, Lionel gasped a few times. Silently, he raised both thumbs, genuinely admiring
her.
“You’re too good at this!”
While Lionel and Sheena were enjoying this little show, Elliot was not feeling the same.
When Lionel returned to the room, he saw Elliot slouched on the sofa, looking utterly dejected, his face
ashen yet still handsome.
Elliot’s eyes were dull, lacking any luster, as he uttered, “Will she ever forgive me? Well, it’s
understandable. I’m tainted, and I can’t even forgive myself.”
“You’re not tainted, not tainted at all!” Lionel hurriedly approached, sitting beside him.
He pulled out a pack of makeup wipes from his pocket and began removing the lipstick marks from
Elliot’s face.
“Ms. Sheena gave these. Let’s wipe them off, and you
be clean again.”
Elliot remained unmoved, and his eyes were still emotionless.
Lowering his voice, Lionel continued coaxing, “Mr. Jenkins, I pulled out all the stops explaining to Ms.
Sheena. She believes you didn’t betray her but were deceived!”
“Really?” Elliot finally showed some reaction.
“Of course!” Lionel’s tone shifted as he continued, “However, she’s still furious. She said you went out
drinking without telling her, got drunk, and even dared to be alone with another woman. You deserved
to be deceived. You’re really pushing your luck!”
Elliot pressed his lips together tightly, staying silent.
He took Sheena’s criticism seriously and began contemplating his mistakes.
Seeing Elliot genuinely reflecting on his error, Lionel suppressed his amusement and added with a
serious ton
“I told you, if you had given in earlier, there wouldn’t be all this fuss. Now, she has even more reason to
give you the silent treatment! Women’s anger doesn’t cool overnight!”
“Do you have a plan?” Elliot looked at Lionel.
Lionel confidently patted his chest. “Of course! I have plenty of tricks up my sleeve! I guarantee she’ll
cool off tonight!”
