Once the nurse had finished administering the IV, Sheena asked everyone to leave. Seeing Elijahâs hand gripping her wrist so hard that the skin turned purple, she frowned and said, âYouâre hurting me. I wonât leave until we finish our conversation, but if you keep holding on, Iâll leave immediately.â
Elijah hesitated, but under her cold gaze, he relented and finally let go of her hand.
Sheena sat on the chair by the bedside, getting straight to the point calmly, âElijah, you were once proud. I donât understand why you readily agreed to sign the agreement back then. Was it really just to repay debts? Is it worth making yourself so miserable and humiliated?â
Elijah met her gaze.
âOnce upon a time, you loved me so much, giving everything for me wholeheartedly. But I didnât cherish it. Having walked the path you took back then, I finally understand how much pain you felt.
Elijah stopped midâsentence, his eyes filled with sincerity as he continued, âSheena, I know Iâve said hurtful things before. From now on, you can scold me every day to vent, and I wonât argue back. Iâll repay you everything that I owe you, even if itâs just a sentence. Will you give me one last chance?â
Scold him every day to vent her anger?
Was he dumb?
With a cold expression, Sheena spoke her mind for the first time, âInitially, I thought of us becoming strangers after the divorce. However, Faye, Erin, and Jennifer wouldnât leave me alone. You even sent Leon to kill me for Jennifer. Why should I give you a chance? Why should I give the Freeman family a
chance?â
Elijah widened his eyes, shocked. âWait. What are you talking about?â
Sending Leon to kill her? When did that happen?
Ignoring his questions, Sheena added, âNow, youâre just my servant in my eyes. After this oneâyear agreement is over, Iâll permanently let you go, and weâll owe each other nothing. From then on, weâll
go our separate ways.â
Owe each other nothing?
Elijahâs eyes lit up, and he said, âSo, if I repay this yearâs debt, our past can be forgiven, and Iâll have a chance to start anew with you?â
Sheena chuckled coldly. âI really donât understand why you like to pretend youâre deeply in love with
me now. Anyway, your chances were already used up on the morning we went to get our divorce certificate. Donât you find it ridiculous acting all affectionate in front of me now?â
After saying that, she stood up and was about to leave.
âDonât go!â

Elijah anxiously reached out, but due to his weak body and inertia, he fell to the ground when he tried to grab her wrist again. His knees hit the floor with a painful thud, and the sound alone made it clear how much it hurt.
Elijah winced, his features contorted in pain. It took him a few seconds to compose himself before looking up again.
âI was blind back then. You spent three years in the Freeman family and another three years married to me, yet I still didnât recognize you as the girl who saved me on Pine Street. That was my mistake, and I regret it! If you donât forgive me, Iâll accept it. But what you said about me sending Leon to kill you, I swear I absolutely did not!â
Sheena chuckled coldly. Lately, Elijah had been putting on an act in front of her, and this time, it was
the most endearing yet also the most fake.
âHelping you back then was just a small gesture, and I didnât care about it at all. Moreover, if I knew the boy in that car would grow up to be you, I might have added another stab. So, this false sense of gratitude is completely unnecessary.â
With that, she freed Elijahâs hand. As she left, she left him with a final threat, âBehave and rest in the hospital. If you pull any more stunts refusing IVs and medication, youâll face the consequences!â
As Sheena exited, a man dressed as a physician entered the room.
Seeing Elijah sitting on the floor with the newly inserted IV falling off, the man rushed to assist him.
âMr. Freeman, itâs me!â
Removing his mask, the man revealed himself as Lionel. When Elijah saw him, his expression turned incredibly cold, with a deepâseated hostility that cut to the bone.
