Elliot was annoyed and said through gritted teeth, “Howard, I hate getting threatened the most!”
“I didn’t mean to threaten you. It’s just a simple exchange. If you’re not interested in Nana’s affairs, you
can choose not to eat the breakfast I’m bringing later.‘
Knowing that Sheena was Elliot’s lifeline, Howard felt a strange satisfaction.
His charismatic, deep voice carried a slightly teasing tone, “But in that case, I won’t tell you anything
about Nana. If you want to know, you’ll have to listen to me! Let me know if you have any dietary
restrictions. Otherwise, I’ll simply arrange your breakfast.”
Elliot remained silent.
“If you don’t object, I’ll take it as your agreement.”
As the door closed, Howard was secretly pleased.
Did Elliot really think he had no way to handle him?!

“I haven’t personally taken care of anyone like this besides Nana. Enjoy it while it lasts.”
Once the door was closed, Elliot curled up, covering his head under the blanket, feeling depressed.
Howard had just stepped out of the ward when he received a call from Phoebe.
Answering the phone, his deep voice instantly softened. “Miss me? No press release today?”
“Yeah, I couldn’t sleep well last night without you. I want to see you before going to work.”
Phoebe’s voice sounded sad, and she continued to express concern, “How’s everything on your end?
I’m outside the lab now, but the security won’t let me in.”
“I’ll come out to pick you up.”
Howard walked quickly and spotted Phoebe at the entrance. She was dressed in an evening gown for
the photoshoot later, with a white fur stole wrapped around her arms.
The contrast between her innocent and adorable face and the elegant dress created a unique charm,
distinct from Sheena’s alluring, domineering, and arrogant style.
“It’s winter! Why aren’t you dressed more warmly?”
Howard immediately removed his coat, wrapped it around her shoulders, and rubbed her hands to Còntens bel0ngs to Nô(v)elDr/a/ma.Org
warm them.
Phoebe was touched. “Don’t worry, I’m not cold. How’s Mr. Jenkins doing? Has Sheena mentioned
when she’ll be back?”
“He’s like an irritating mad dog, but I’ve managed to find a way to handle him. I can’t return to the
Caster 635
mansion for a while, so take care of yourself. Nana hasn’t mentioned when she’ll be back, but I’ll come
to the mansion when I have some free time to be with you.”

“No worries. I miss you, so I came to find you. Mr. Jenkins is the priority. You must take good care of
him on Sheena’s behalf.”
Phoebe smiled softly, gently caressing Howard’s face.
Howard frowned, feeling a bit jealous. “You keep mentioning Elliot. Don’t you care about me?”
After all, he got hit by Elliot, and Phoebe did not seem to ask how he was doing
It felt as if his shoulder was hurting more now!
“How could I not care? You’re my favorite!”
Phoebe immediately cupped his face in her hands, tiptoed, and gently kissed him on the cheek.
However, her mood gradually turned blue when she thought of Sheena.
“I just feel sorry for Sheena and Mr. Jenkins. If I were her, I don’t know how devastated I would be.
She’s stronger than me, but that means she has to bear more pressure. I truly feel for her.”
Howard hugged her waist tightly, comforting her, “It’ll be okay. Everything will get better, and we’ll all be
well.”
She nodded. “With Sheena away, Mr. Jenkins must be feeling uneasy. That’s why you have to be more
accommodating and not bully him.”
“I’m not going to pick on a sick man, am I?” Howard felt more and more aggrieved.
What a miserable job!
Besides, it was Elliot who made a fuss!
Nonetheless, he did not want to worry Phoebe, so he never mentioned the little injuries he sustained.
After twelve long hours, Sheena and Lionel finally landed.
The capital of Laubabwe, Kyafa, was far from Froania, with a time difference of over ten hours.
It was daytime here, while in Froania, it was deep into the night.
Upon arriving at the airport, before Sheena could call her brothers, she bumped into a bodyguard
dressed in black.
