Chapter 1031
Elliot immediately became serious.
“Where do you feel pain? Let’s go to the hospital tomorrow for a full check–up.”
Sheena declined, “Forget it. Remember last time when I bit you? We went to Professor Y for a check–up, and he said I’m healthy. He mentioned that my irritable mood was due to poor sleep during pregnancy and excessive worrying. Going for another check–up won’t make much of a difference. Maybe I’m just overthinking.”
Elliot was very concerned and said, “We should still get it checked again. Even if it’s just a minor issue now, it could become a problem later.”
“It’s fine. Yosef is one of our country’s elite medical doctors. If he couldn’t find anything, other hospitals wouldn’t either. It’s a waste of time and energy.”

She gently rubbed Elliot’s injured buttocks and added, “I’ll ask the hotel staff to buy some anti–inflammatory cream and bring it over. I’ll apply it for you later.”
“Don’t. This hotel belongs to Neil. If you let the staff buy the cream, Neil will find out I got beaten up.”
Sheena realized he was right.
“If that’s the case, stay here. I’ll go out and buy it myself.”
She moved to get off the bed, but Elliot held her by her waist, stopping her.
“I’m from the military, and I’m not that fragile. This minor injury will heal in a couple of days. If you really care about me, cancel the flight tomorrow morning and go shopping with me at the biggest shopping district in Ardolisia as planned. How about that?”
Sheena stayed silent.
Elliot continued persuading, “After we finish shopping tomorrow, we can buy tickets the day after to go back to Froania together. If you’re worried about the babies, you can video call Nathaniel before bedtime every day to check on them.”
His hands were still around her waist, not letting go.
Sheena looked at him and asked, “You’re not jealous about that anymore? You were so unhappy just now because I had a video call with Nathaniel.”
Elliot’s arm tightened around her as if he would not allow anyone to take her away.
“As long as you accompany me shopping tomorrow and wear the dress I like, everything’s
fine.
Sheena chuckled and caressed his face.
“Alright. Let’s go shopping tomorrow. What kind of dress do you want?”
Elliot’s dark eyes gleamed mysteriously as he leaned close to her ear and whispered
something.
Sheena was puzzled. “When did I agree to go shopping for sexy dresses in that kind of
store?”
“You promised me last night. Honey, you can’t back–out now,” Elliot said, staring at her, feeling a bit disappointed.
Sheena remained unyielding. “Where’s the evidence?”
Elliot realized his mistake.
He should have recorded a voice note last night.
Now, he had no evidence.
Elliot buried himself in her arms and grunted softly in frustration.
Sheena found his childish behavior both amusing and endearing.
Since she had lost control of her emotions and hit him, she felt she should make it up to
him somehow, or she would feel guilty.
“Alright. I agree with it now. Let’s get the sexy dress you like, but only after we return to the
country and see Asher and Adora safe and sound will I consider wearing the dress and having some fun with you. Agree?”
Elliot naturally understood. “Agreed. Anything you want, Honey.”
Sheena lifted his chin and gently kissed his lips as a small reward.
“Good boy. Let’s go to bed early tonight.”
Elliot stayed in place. “My butt hurts, and I can’t walk. Can you help bathe me?”

Sheena hesitated but eventually relented. “Okay, I’ll help you.”
Elliot was satisfied as she helped him up and into the bathroom, acting dramatically in
pain,
“Honey, I’ll buy two movie tickets tomorrow. Let’s see a movie together and eat some local.
cuisine. How does that sound?”
“Sounds good.”
Having gotten his way, Elliot smiled and leaned against her shoulder lazily.
