Moreover, Lionel’s attempt to cover up made it worse, and he seemed guilty to Sheena.
She sneered, “What a detailed preparation. Using these schemes on me is truly a waste of talent.”
Lionel’s face turned pale as he stammered, “N-No. It’s not like that. I prepared this, and it has nothing
to do with Mr. Jenkins…”
When he heard the terrifying sound from inside, Lionel went to prepare medical supplies, anticipating
that Elliot would be going on a mission soon after the whipping session. He wanted to be ready to
assist with any injuries.
The disdain in Sheena’s eyes intensified, obviously not believing Lionel.
Lionel also realized his exnation fell t, and he even worsened the situation. He tried his best to
rify, “Ms. Sheena, this really has nothing to do with Mr. Jenkins. It’s my…”

Sheena had no interest in hearing more and left the Jenkins family without looking back.
After she departed, Lionel, feeling regretful, pped his own mouth and hurriedly went inside the
mansion to check on Elliot.
Elliot was already sitting on the couch, looking dazed.
Lionel quickly examined the wounds on Elliot’s body, relieved to find that he had only suffered two
were found in Elliot’s flesh, and Lionel carefully used tweezers to remove them before disinfecting
the wounds.
Recalling the incident at the door, Lionel recounted everything to Elliot.
“Sorry… I was just afraid you’d be injured too severely for the mission. I didn’t expect Ms. Sheena to
catch me. I’ll apologize to her after the mission.”
Elliot’s eyes dimmed. “What you did is as good as what I did. Your exnation won’t work. She won’t
believe me anymore.”
Seeing Elliot upset, Lionel felt guilty and began pping himself hard. “I’m sorry! It’s all my fault! I
deserve to die!”
He did not hold back, and after two ps, his face was swollen, and blood oozed from his mouth.
Elliot stopped him. “Enough, it’s my fault in the first ce. I’ll find another opportunity to exin to her
personally. You don’t need to me yourself.”
It was impossible for Lionel not to me himself. For him, Elliot was more than just a benefactor, a
superior, or a friend; he was the most important person: a family. Though they asionally exchanged
banter, Lionel’s loyalty would always be with Elliot.
A convoy left the Jenkins family and left the city that night.

Once again, Sheena found herself unable to sleep. While Elliot had saved her and taken injuries for
her, generating gratitude, the revtion that everything was a charade. His intentionally faked death to
trigger her guilt and the maniption of her emotions made her feel like a fool for all the tears she
shed for him.
She had even naively contemted a life of celibacy, nning to return to Farlem and guard his
grave.
In hindsight, she found it utterly ridiculous!
Sheena could not forgive Elliot’s actions. However, she also could not bring herself tosh out and vent
her frustration by hurting him. Perhaps cutting ties and ceasing allmunication would be best for
both of them, allowing her to forget these painful experiences gradually.
She spent the sleepless night pondering her decision.
In the end, she made up her mind.
Early the next day, Sheena left for the Jenkins family again after getting ready. However, she did not
head to Elliot’s mansion this time. Instead, she went directly to find Santiago.
Noting her solemn expression, Santiago sensed that she had something important to discuss. After
breakfast, he led her to the living room. However, as she finished exining, Santiago was baffled,
exchanging bewildered nces with the equally confused Grant.
“Sheena, am I hearing you correctly? You announced your engagement to Eli just two days ago, and
now you want to break off the engagement?”
