Chapter 649
On the way to Alzer Palace, Nathaniel had everything arranged.
Inside the room, there was a luxurious lounge chair draped with a white fox fur blanket, and the coffee
table displayed exquisite pastries, fruit snacks, and honey fruit tea.
Three rows of clothing racks stood nearby, showcasing various styles of exquisite gowns, and two
rows of high heels were displayed on the plush carpets that lined the floor.
The stylist and makeup artist had been waiting for a while.
As Nathaniel led Sheena into the room, both professionals greeted them with standard court etiquette.
Sheena was not pleased and commented, “I’m not used to having others dress me up and do my
makeup.”
Nathaniel immediately waved his hand at the two. “You may leave.
“Nana, these are special pastries from Laubabwe, very delicious. I had them freshly made and brought
over. Would you like to try?”
He approached the coffee table, holding a plate of pastries, extending it toward Sheena with courtesy.
Sheena glanced at the pastries and, for some reason, not only lacked appetite but also felt a bit
nauseous.
“I haven’t been in the mood for sweets lately. You go ahead and enjoy them.”
She walked over to the rows of dresses, beginning to pick out a gown.
Nathaniel quickly set down the pastries and came over to help her choose.
Holding up a silver–threaded, aqua–blue couture gown for autumn and winter, he suggested, “How
about this one? The blue is gentle and pleasant. With the silk long sleeves and a white fur stole, it
won’t be too cold.”
Most importantly, this gown was in the same color scheme as his own deep blue suit, and their outfit
would match like a couple.
He had never worn matching outfits with Sheena before.
Nathaniel’s eyes sparkled with anticipation.
When Sheena did not respond, his hand moved closer to her. “Nana, be a good girl and wear this
one.”
Sheena also keenly noticed that Nathaniel had chosen a gown in the same color scheme as his suit.
She did not bother to consider it, turning to another rack to randomly select a dark red velvet long
dress.
“No, I prefer this one. I’ll change next door.”

Nathaniel’s face darkened almost instantly. He grabbed her wrist, pulling her back, emphasizing in a
stern tone, “I said, wear this!”
“Let go!” Sheena was annoyed. “Nathaniel, you know me well. Your controlling tendencies don’t work
on me!”
His fierce gaze almost instantly softened, and his tone followed suit, weakening.
“Nana, you don’t know how happy I am that you came to Laubabwe. It feels like a romantic getaway for
the two of us. I’ve been trying to fulfill your wishes and be compliant these past few days without
imposing any conditions on you. I’m not using any conditions to force you this time. Can you just
accommodate me once and wear the gown I chose?”
Sheena’s face remained icy as she locked eyes with him. “But I don’t like it.”
Those few yet cold words seemed to strike a chord in his sensitive heart.
“Do you dislike this dress, or do you dislike me as a person? If Elliot were here today and picked this
dress for you, would you still refuse?”
He was furious, his eyes narrowing, revealing a menacing glare. He gripped Sheena’s hand forcefully,
tossing her onto the lounge chair, then pressed over her.
“Don’t move! If you come any closer, I’ll kill you!”
As he attempted to press down, Sheena decisively revealed the silver needle on her ring, pressing it
firmly against Nathaniel’s throat.
Nathaniel laughed, a laugh that almost brought tears to his eyes. His hands rested above the lounge.
chair, and because of the silver needle, there was always a distance between him and Sheena,
preventing him from crossing over.
“If it were Elliot, would you have the heart to hurt him?” Belongs to (N)ôvel/Drama.Org.
His tone carried a hint of sorrow, and his laughter became increasingly eerie.
“If I insisted, would you really dare to kill me? If I die today, you won’t be able to leave this palace, and
Elliot will perish with us. Do you really dare to do it?”
Sheena fell silent.
