Chapter 627
With Sheena’s comforting words, Elliot finally calmed down. He tightly grasped her hand, finding a deeply reassuring presence in her.
“Nana, don’t go to Nathaniel! Don’t agree to his conditions!”
Sheena hesitated.
“Nana! Promise me! We had an agreement!”
Elliot gripped her hand so tightly that it left red marks on her skin.
“I promise I won’t marry him, but… I’m sorry!”
In an instant, her free hand swung fiercely toward the back of his head, delivering a powerful blow that rendered him unconscious. Then, she cradled him in her arms, her small face pressed against his forehead, gently caressing him.
Tears streamed from her eyes, disappearing into her hair, leaving no trace.
She whispered, “Sleep, Eli. Leave the rest to me.”
Lionel hurriedly ran up the stairs once again, witnessing the scene in the corner of the closet.
He was shocked and exclaimed, “Ms. Sheena, what happened?”
Sheena did not have time to explain; she just said, “Come help me carry him. We’re going to the lab.”
Lionel did not hesitate, immediately squatting down to receive the unconscious Elliot from Sheena.
After that, they swiftly headed to the lab, where Yosef promptly conducted tests on Elliot’s body.
The atmosphere in the room was tense.
Yosef furrowed his brows, sighing continuously.
“Elliot’s condition is very grave. The blue serum has already lost its effectiveness and even brought side effects, accelerating the spread of the virus.”
“If we don’t quickly administer the next blue serum or find a complete cure, Elliot’s body won’t last
another month!”
Lionel was horrified. “What! Not even a month?”
In the somber atmosphere, Sheena appeared much calmer.
No one noticed her hand hidden in her sleeve, nails digging fiercely into her palm, striving to maintain a composed tone.
“You two keep an eye on Eli. I have something to attend to.”
Exiting the lab, she sat in her car and dialed Nathaniel’s number.

haniel’s tone perked up with delight. “Well, I didn’t expect you to call me so soon. Let me guess,
Sheena’s gaze held a mixture of coldness, suppressing the fiery anger in her chest.
“Nathaniel, you’re truly despicable.”
“How am I despicable? I told you early on that you needed to make a decision quickly. Now that something unfavorable has happened, I won’t take responsibility for it!” Nathaniel answered in a light–hearted tone.
Sheena’s urgent call indicated that Elliot’s condition was dire. If that was the case, it was absolutely
wonderful news for Nathaniel!
Sheena restrained the urge to immediately end him, asking, “Where is the antidote?”
“So, you agreed to my terms?”
She neither confirmed nor denied, asking instead, “You won’t even tell me the name of the antidote. Why should I believe you really know it? I need to ensure you’re not playing games before considering
your offer.”
“Fine, I’ll tell you. After all, without me, you won’t get it,” Nathaniel readily responded. “Currently, the only cure for the S404 bio–virus on the market is Laubabwe’s super–virus drug, Clear.”
Sheena squinted, silently noting the name of the medication.
Nathaniel continued, “If you consider accepting my conditions, come to Laubabwe to find me. I want to arrange a unique, exotic wedding with you.”
“I must remind you, only you’re allowed to come over. If I find out that Corey or Noah dares to follow you, you’ll face the consequences.”
His tone became threatening toward the end.
Sheena contained her anger and replied, “I’ll contact you after verifying the truth of your words.”
‘Sure, I’ll be waiting for your call. Nana, don’t keep me waiting!
Sheena immediately hung up and contacted Noah.
