The two of them finally headed to the quiet and secure escape corridor inside the building. Lionel and Colinâs assistant took their positions on either side of the escape corridor.
Colin casually leaned on the railing of the escape corridor, asking, âWhat do you want to say?â
Elijah stared at him intensely, his expression iceâcold. âIf Katie and Sheena canât get along in the future, who would you choose?â
Colin pondered momentarily and replied, âIt wonât happen because Katie already knows Sheenaâs identity. As long as Katie cares about Howard, she wonât pick a fight with Sheena again.â
âAre you sure?â Elijah sneered. âFrom what I know, Howard and Katieâs engagement has been on hold for two years. They still havenât married because Howard hasnât given the green light. Recently, Howard wanted to break off the engagement, and your dad persuaded him not to.â
âAnd what does that have to do with anything?â Colin was confused.
âYou know Sheena well. Katie has harmed her, and she did not hold back, using ruthless means to
hurt Sheena. Sheena will never get along with Katie in this lifetime, and Katie is not someone who can
tolerate losses. So, between your sister and Sheena, you can only choose one.â
Colin felt a bit annoyed. âWhatâs the problem? Canât I have both? Iâll talk to them and resolve their
issues.â
Elijah chuckled. âYou donât really like Sheena that much, and youâre just fooling yourself. Katie will eventually get married, but your hesitation in this situation meant youâre not worthy of Sheena.â
âOh, please. Youâre the one who canât match up to her. Since you signed that agreement with her, your chances of remarriage have been nonâexistent.â
Elijah shrugged indifferently. âIf we donât remarry, so be it. At least I can protect her in a different way. Before she completely rejects me, I must choose a man who truly loves and cares for her, but youâre definitely not that man.â

Colinâs expression softened at those words. âThat man youâre talking about is me! We are wellâsuited in every aspect, and Iâve been secretly in love with her for many years. I wouldnât mind that sheâs divorced, so how am I unworthy of her? How many men can compare to me?â
Elijah frowned, giving him several scrutinizing looks. The fact that he brought up the term âdivorced âshowed that he did care about it deep down. He was deceiving himself into loving Sheena, convincing himself he must win her over.
Seeing Elijahâs silence, Colin sincerely shared his joy. âYou probably donât know yet, but she has
already agreed to have dinner with me alone in three days. I plan to surprise her that day, and sheâll accept my proposal. As for you, youâll never have a chance!â
Colin looked at Elijah, obviously provoking him.

Elijahâs anger surged, and he grabbed Colinâs collar, warning him with a low voice, âArenât you tired of pretending? I suspect you had ulterior motives from the beginning of your friendship with her. Stay away from her!â
Colin shrugged off Elijahâs hand dismissively. âDo you really think you can stop me?â
Indeed, the engagement between Howard and Katie was uncertain. However, the alliance between the Upton and Lawson families was an inevitable trend. Moreover, Colin genuinely liked Sheena, so marrying her would be a winâwin situation.
Even so, Colin would not disclose these thoughts to Elijah.
The two men exchanged warning glances, the tension escalating in the air. After several back and forths, their respective assistants intervened, pulling them away.
Once Colin left, Elijah, accompanied by Lionel, returned to his office. The thought of Colinâs plan three days later filled him with uncontrollable anger, and he slammed his fist on the table with a loud bang, startling Lionel.
âMr. Freeman, regarding Mr. Upton⦠What do you plan to do?â Lionel asked cautiously.
Elijahâs anger flared up
at the mention of Colinâs name. âWithin three days, find a way to get him out of Farlem. The farther, the better. Donât let him bother me here.â
âAh? About thisâ¦â Lionel hesitated. âHe has the support of the Sveltonâs Upton family. Mr. Freeman, I
