Chapter 565
Elliot playfully tapped on Sheena’s perky nose, his black eyes filled with indulgence.
“Because only I know that even if you’re drunk, you’ll only want my body.”
After all, he had firsthand experience!
In a recent hotel encounter, she was completely intoxicated, mistaking him for a stranger with a mask and launching a fierce attack, even attempting to harm him seriously.
It was a terrifying experience, almost like a nightmare!
However, later, Sheena removed his mask, rediscovered their familiarity, and treated him tenderly
for the first time.
Thinking about it still brought a sweet feeling to his heart.
Of course, if Sheena had known that she would behave like a feisty little lioness when she was drunk, ready to bite strangers, she would probably have wanted to dig a hole and hide.
Nonetheless, Elliot had no intention of letting her know.
He wearily rested his head on her shoulder, his arm encircling her slender waist from behind.
“I told you last time that I’ll trust you unconditionally. How could I ever doubt you?”
Sheena raised his chin with her fingertip, leaning down to gently kiss his lips as a small reward.
In the front seat, Lionel occasionally glanced through the rearview mirror, enjoying the lovey–dovey
scene.
He admired how well Elliot could sweet talk before Sheena. In truth, Elliot had received Logan’s report and was already aware of the truth!
Lionel peeked at the rearview mirror again.
Oh well, he was used to it by now.
Let them kiss and burn in the desire.
Elliot had successfully ignored Lionel, cuddling with Sheena as if no one else was around.
“Nana, my arm is so sore. Can you give it a little massage?”
Elliot half–lifted his right arm, appearing deliberately weakened.
Sheena earnestly massaged him.
“Am I too heavy? You carried me all the way down the stairs, only putting me down when we got into the car. It must have been tiring for you.”
Elliot shook his head, a slight frown on his forehead.

She was essentially saying he lacked stamina!
“As a man, carrying his fiancee is only natural. Besides, you’re so light; picking you up is like holding a bunch of cotton. Perhaps… it’s because I took some medicine before leaving, and it’s been a while since I last went out. Feeling a bit weak, you know.”
Sheena knew he was making excuses but chose not to expose him.
She lightly kissed his forehead and said, “Then sleep in my arms for a while. I’ll wake you up when we
arrive.”
“Okay.”
His voice was hollow, burying his face in the crook of Sheena’s neck, unabashedly inhaling her delightful scent. Soon, exhaustion overcame him, and he fell asleep.
Sheena gently embraced his back, occasionally patting and soothing him with her hand, her thoughts drifting as she stared at the receding streetlights outside.
Seeing Elliot asleep, Lionel slowed down the car, making the ride smoother.
After more than half an hour, the car came to a steady halt in the courtyard of the Jenkins estate.
Due to the vintage style of the estate, all cars had to be parked in a designated garage.
To reach E&S Haven, one had to traverse winding paths around the estate walls.
Elliot was in a deep sleep, weakened by the progression of his condition.
Sheena, not wanting to disturb him, planned to carry him back quietly.
Lionel was surprised and reached out, “Ms. Sheena, let me do it?”
“No need.”
Sheena declined, securing the soundly sleeping Elliot in her arms and heading toward E&S Haven.
Lionel stared at her retreating figure in astonishment, taking a while to comprehend.
Did Elliot just get carried like a princess?
It was simply unimaginable!
Elliot, towering at 188cm, tucked into Sheena’s petite arms, seemed strange yet well–matched.
Lionel felt rather emotional, and he was genuinely happy for Elliot.
