Chapter 610
This was indeed… quite a different and exciting experience.
Sheena’s heart fluttered slightly as Elliot’s current appearance made her feel a twinge of guilt.
How could she bear to bully such an adorable fiance?
She had not even showered him with enough affection yet!
She gently lifted his chin with her palm and kissed his thin lips. After a lingering and warm kiss, Sheena straightened up, covered him with the quilt, and asked knowingly, “You haven’t committed any crime, so why this?”
Elliot appeared sad as he spoke with a sense of defeat, “It’s already my fault for making you angry. What happened tonight was my carelessness, my mistake. If it helps, you can hit me to vent your frustration.”
!!
His sincere apology left Sheena conflicted.
She checked his wrists and noticed they were slightly red.
Regret crept in, considering she had left him for half an hour in the quilt.
“Do th
they hurt? Where’s the key? I’ll unlock it for you.
Elliot evaded her attempts to unlock the handcuffs, and his eyes reddened.
“You’re not willing to do it yourself anymore? Does this mean you won’t forgive me? Are you still considering canceling the wedding and marrying Nathaniel?”
Sheena was taken aback.
What was he even talking about?
Had he completely forgotten everything she had said before?
“Why are you bringing up these things again?” Sheena’s tone became more intense.
With teary eyes, Elliot questioned, “Why can’t I bring them up? You’re being indecisive, which shows you have such intentions!”
Sheena was momentarily speechless.
Indeed, she had considered Nathaniel’s proposal to cure Elliot’s body of the virus.
“I just haven’t made up my mind yet. I can’t make a decision, but I’ll find a foolproof solution to address these matters,” Sheena said, unable to face Elliot on this matter.
Moreover, she was not in the mood to continue playing around with him.
She pretended to search for the key everywhere, eventually retrieving it from under the desk lamp, after which she helped him unlock the handcuffs.
Chapter 610
“Go back to your room and sleep. We can talk about it later.”
Elliot clenched his fists, growling, “This again! You’re just running away from the problem! Ever since Nathaniel’s matter, you’ve been avoiding the truth! You’ve never uttered a single honest word!”
“You made a mistake, and now you’re yelling at me?” Sheena, too, was provoked by him.
After enduring and holding back, she said, “Forget it. I don’t want to argue with you tonight. If you want to use this room, then I’ll find a guest room downstairs to sleep.”
A guest room?
Was she trying to distance herself by treating herself as a guest?
What was initially a casual remark turned into a timed bomb that destroyed his rationality.
Just as Sheena turned to leave, he quickly sat up, wrapping his arms around her waist from behind, holding her so tightly that his arms trembled.
“Don’t go, Nana! Don’t leave me!”
Sheena halted her steps, attempting to break free from his embrace.
The gesture seemed as if she was pushing him away.
He had just regained her love, and the prospect of losing her again filled him with a sense of
suffocation.
His arms tightened even more, his forehead pressing against her back, his voice choked and helpless.
“Please, don’t…”
Sheena froze on the spot, feeling a sharp pain in her heart.
Her heart seemed pierced by a thousand needles, making it almost difficult to breathe.
It was over half a year ago…
For her sake, Elliot had endured punishment and whipping from the Jenkins family, left heavily wounded. That evening, he clung to her waist despite the intense pain, using a humble tone to plead with her not to leave…
