Chapter 826
She thought she had found a way to shake off Sheena’s bodyguards and escape for good. Yet, did she know, Elliot''s men
were also keeping a close eye on her.
Was fate really so cruel as to deny her even a single chance?
“Sheena, Elliot! Even if it costs me my life, I''ll never go back!”
She screamed at the top of her lungs as if those names were her most hated enemies, then ran toward the riverbank.

Nothing was more despairing than thinking you found hope, only to be dragged back into the abyss.
If she were taken back by Elliot’s men, she would face even harsher torment.
With one failed escape attempt already, Kye could not help her anymore.This material belongs to N?velDrama.Org.
Endless hell awaited her.
She sprinted desperately toward the riverbank, ncing back at her pursuers from time to time. The rain made the river rapid
and turbulent.
When she reached the edge of the river, She did not hesitate and leaped into the water.
“She!”
A deafening gunshot rang out.
She felt a searing pain in her left shoulder as the bullet struck her, turning the water around her crimson red. In the blink of an
eye, she was swallowed up by the rushing currents, her blood quickly diluted by the water as she disappeared from sight.
The two men ran along the riverbank, following the flow of the water.
One of them dialed a number urgently, reporting the situation to Elliot.

At that moment, Elliot was in the Lawson family’s mansion, listening to the family discuss Albert’s condition. His phone was on
silent mode, and he did not answer the call.
Albert''s condition had deteriorated unexpectedly, with no hope of recovery.
It was likely that his heart rate monitor would tline within the next two days.
As Sheena was still pregnant, she could not participate in the decision-making process or keep vigil at Albert’s bedside.
After listening to Noah, Barbara, and Howard''s discussions, Sheena was exhausted.
Then, Elliot held her and helped her into the car, driving back to E&S Haven.
Back home, Sheena sat on the lounge chair, silently staring out at the rain.
Elliot watched her suppress her heartbreak, silently keeping herpany.
After a period of silence, Sheena, who had not spoken, suddenly broke the silence.
“Eli, let’s cancel our wedding the day after tomorrow.”
Elliot instantly froze. However, he knew this would be the oue.
If their beloved father passed away, they would need to observe a mourning period for a period. During this time, celebratory
events like weddings were out of the question.
Besides, given the circumstances, Sheena would not be in the right mindset to proceed with the ceremony.

“Don’t say that. You haven''t dyed anything,” Elliot replied nonchntly, holding her hand that was caressing his face and
rubbing it gently,forting her.
He inadvertently raised his left hand, and Sheena finally noticed the bandage on it. She brought his hand close to her eyes to
inspect it.
“What happened to your hand? When did you get hurt? Why didn’t you tell me?”
Elliot hesitated for a moment before admitting, “When Ford reported during the day, | identally cut myself while peeling
apples. It’s nothing serious, and | didn’t want to worry you, so | didn’t mention it.”

Sheena’s heart twinged slightly.
If canceling the wedding made her feel guilty, seeing Elliot injured made her feel even more indebted.
She felt the need to make it up to him somehow.
“Eli, you’ve prepared so much for our wedding. It’s a shame to waste the nning entirely. Why don’t we quietly register our
marriage beforehand?”
