Even if Sheena did not end his life with a single shot, he still would have died from the excessive blood
loss
Elliot could simply choose to let him bleed to death, and there would be no chance of recovery.
Or did Elliot save him so that he could continue tormenting him in secret?
“Why did you save me?”
Elliot understood what he wanted to know and chuckled softly
“Over the past six months, I’ve been plagued by illness because of you, narrowly escaping death
several times. However, I’ve also inflicted the same pain upon you. Under severe punishment, you
almost didn’t make it through a few times. Since you handed over Clear, and now that I’m physically
recovered, we can consider our past grievances settled.”
Grievances settled?
Nathaniel was stunned.
Sheena had said a similar thing back then!
Both men were ruthless and bloodthirsty, sworn enemies who could never coexist peacefully.
How could Elliot easily let him off?
Nathaniel propped himself up, leaning against the headboard.
“I handed over Clear because of Sheena. I never wanted to save you. I wished you were dead!”
“I know,” Elliot responded calmly. “In this matter, you were trying to support her wishes. She fired at you
not only to fulfill your desire for death but also to help me. She was afraid to put me in a difficult
situation. Now, I’m sparing you.”
Nathaniel looked at him in shock. “Elliot, you know me well to understand that i reversed, if you were in
my hands right now, I’d never let you off so easily!”

“Unfortunately, there are no ifs in this situation we’re in right now,” Elliot remarked. “You don’t have the
opportunity to make me your captive. Whether to forgive or continue harboring resentment, the choice
is in my hands.”
Elliot stared at Nathaniel with a smirk, exuding an air of inherent arrogance and elegance..
He was undeniably handsome.
Despite having undergone skin graft surgery due to facial burns, Elliot’s face remained exceptionally
attractive.
Those obsidian eyes exuded both ruthless authority and a righteous aura, and when it came to
Sheena, his gaze displayed an unmatchable and sincere affection.

Nathaniel chuckled, finally letting go.
“I admit defeat. I finally understand why she chose you. In certain aspects, I’m indeed not as good as
Elliot smiled, patting Nathaniel’s shoulder. However, his tone grew more serious.
“Let’s not talk about this for now and focus on the main issue. Your mom believes you’re dead and has
taken Nana to the international court, demanding an immediate verdict.” NôvelDrama.Org content rights.
Once enemies due to her, they now unexpectedly shake hands and discuss strategies.
The recess had ended.
Kelly had not withdrawn her lawsuit, and everyone returned to the courtroom.
The prosecution held onto the accusation that Sheena shot Nathaniel dead.
“Your Honor, we believe the defendant shot Mr. Lance while he was defenseless, constituting an
ambush and intentional murder! Our plaintiff, as the stepmother, has done her best, while the
defendant slanders her with baseless accusations, showing no remorse. It’s despicable, and we
request the court to impose a severe sentence on the defendant!”
On the defense side, the lawyers remained silent.
Sheena’s pre–recess revelation had completely thrown off all their carefully laid plans.
Kelly glared at Sheena, teeth clenched.
“Sheena, no matter how you twist the facts, it remains that you shot and killed Charles. Do you deny
it?”
