After advising Erin to behave for the time being, Elijah turned to check on Faye.


    Erin, still persistent, shouted after him, “Eli! Remember, you must kill her! | want her dead!”


    The faces of the two bodyguards slightly changed.


    Elijah noticed their expressions but said nothing and went to look for Faye.


    Faye was in the backyard clearing weeds when she saw Elijah standing unharmed before her. Overwhelmed with joy, Faye


    hugged him and cried.


    “Elijah, it’s good that you''re back! You seemed to have lost a lot of weight. Are you not eating well? Why do you look so pale? Are


    you sick? | know it''s difficult for you with Sheena, but you must take care of yourself.”


    She caressed Elijah’s face, noticing the subtle signs of swelling despite his efforts to hide it.


    “What happened to your left cheek? Who hit you? Was it Sheena?”


    Elijah held her hand and said, “No, it was Uncle Wilfred.”


    “Wilfred actually hit you? Once we get through this ordeal, I''ll make sure he pays!” Faye eximed angrily.


    However, when she realized that Sheena had not physically harmed Elijah, Faye wondered if this meant Sheena still had


    feelings for him. ncing around to ensure the two bodyguards were engaged in conversation and not paying attention, she


    leaned in to whisper to Elijah.


    “Elijah, Sheena’s definitely not a simple person. From sending Jennifer to prison to the bankruptcy of the Freeman family, she


    has nned everything meticulously. Even Bethany suspected her identity before. Although she never revealed it, | believe her


    background is not ordinary,”Copyright by N?v/elDrama.Org.


    Elijah frowned, listening attentively.


    Faye continued, “Elijah, you must find an opportunity to investigate her background. If she’s really the heiress of a prominent


    family, you should treat her attentively and try to reconcile, or, if all else fails, find a way to make her pregnant!”


    Faye had used the same strategy to marry into the Freeman family. Despite Elijah being a man, she felt he was handsome and


    could use his charm without any issues.


    Elijah’s face darkened, and he moved her hand away.


    “What kind of man would | be if | were to take advantage of someone like that? Don’t say such things again,” Elijah replied


    sternly.


    Faye shrugged it off, saying, “What''s the big deal? If you remarry her, | won’t trouble her anymore. If she truly is the daughter of a


    prominent family, I’m willing to serve her!” “You''re unreasonable!” /


    With that, Elijah turned and walked away.


    Faye watched his retreating figure and stomped her foot in anger.


    Why did his son not inherit her excellent traditions?


    Seeing that their conversation had concluded, the two bodyguards once again stuck close to Elijah.


    Elijah’s expression was solemn as he moved slowly through the first-floor hall. He was aware that the mansion presented the


    best opportunity, and once back at Ocean Avenue, it would be challenging to establish contact with Lionel for some time.


    With this in mind, Elijah held his stomach, looking slightly ufortable. “I need to use the bathroom. Wait here. I''ll be back


    soon.”


    The two bodyguards ignored him and continued to follow him closely. There was even a moment when they considered


    apanying him into the bathroom.


    Elijah stood at the bathroom door, blocking them just in time.


    “This is a private residence. There’s only one bathroom per floor and only one toilet. Do you really n to stand before me and


    watch while | use the toilet? Doesn''t that seem


    inappropriate to you?”
