“Tell me the plan.
Lionel immediately leaned in close to his ear and whispered a few words.
After a moment of consideration, Elliot decisively stood up.
“Let’s go back to E&S Haven!”
“Alright!”
Lionel silently followed suit.
Elliot recalled something as they reached the doorway and said coldly, “That Sheila is absolutely
despicable! Terminate her endorsement, leverage the Jenkins Group’s connections, and seize all her
resources and contracts. I want her drowning in breach of contract penalties, living on bread and water
for a month!”
“Mr. Jenkins…” Lionel felt a bit guilty.
Sheila was indeed in for a rough time this round.
With a dangerous squint in his eyes, Elliot asked, “Feeling sympathetic? How about deducting her
breach of contract penalties from your salary and bonuses?”
With a disdainful snort, Elliot swiftly strode out of the Hedone Bar.
Lionel immediately lost all the sympathy had and caught up with Elliot, pleading, “Wait, Mr. Jenkins!
She’s indeed senseless, and a bit of reprimanding is due! I’ve been tirelessly brainstorming ideas for
you. I’m an invaluable asset, so you can’t treat me like this!”
The two snuck back to E&S Haven.
Sheena’s door was closed, securely locked.
The light in Elliot’s eyes dimmed when he noticed that.
He first went to his room and freshened up. When the sound of rushing water from Sheena’s adjacent
bathroom echoed through, he and Lionel sneaked into Sheena’s room through the small balcony.
He discarded his robe, hid it under the pillow, and then carefully lifted the quilt, lying completely
bare.
Lionel, dragging his feet, earned a stern look from Elliot.
Then, he silently mouthed at Lionel and scolded, “Hurry up!”
“Yes, yes!”
The sight of Elliot’s tempting physique and that divine face was too much to handle.
Even Lionel thought it was a beautiful sight!
The sound of water from the bathroom ceased.
Seeing Sheena about to emerge, Elliot urgently mouthed at Lionel, “Quick!”
Lionel nodded hastily.
After completing their preparations, Elliot signaled with his eyes, “Go, go, go! Hurry!”
Lionel immediately covered him with the quilt, even tucking his head inside, and then turned off the
lights.
By the time Sheena emerged from the bathroom, Lionel had just finished, pretending to climb out of the
balcony.
Outside, the leaves in the garden rustled gently in the breeze.
Without rushing to turn on the lights, Sheena dried her damp hair with a towel. She walked to the
window, locked it, and drew the curtains.
The room plunged into complete darkness, yet an unusual atmosphere lingered.
Sheena feigned ignorance, heading to the bathroom to blow–dry her hair. Then, she went on with her
thorough skincare routine, leaving Elliot hidden in the covers for nearly half an hour.
From initially feeling his heart race with nervous tension, Elliot gradually found his breath calming Content rights by NôvelDr//ama.Org.
down. With the alcohol he had consumed that night, and the comfortable cotton quilt embraced him,
waves of drowsiness swept over him.
Just as he was on the verge of falling asleep, someone turned on the bedside lamp, and the quilt
covering him was lifted.
The rush of cold air caused a gentle shiver across his skin.
Blinking his eyelashes, Elliot locked eyes with Sheena’s clear, sparkling eyes the moment the quilt
was lifted.
“Why are you in my bed?” Even though Sheena was mentally prepared, Elliot’s appearance still
stunned her.
His once profound black eyes now glistened, his face displaying an unexpectedly adorable and silly
expression.
