Chapter 640
Sheena nodded, her gaze still fixed on the snow outside the window,
“What a beautiful scene. I was planning to take a photo to share with him when I return. But then, I remembered my phone was confiscated, and… he’s also blind now.”
Lionel felt a pang of sadness, and seeing Sheena depressed made him even more uneasy. If even he felt this way, Sheena must be going through something indescribable.
The atmosphere in the room turned significantly somber after this revelation, carrying a subtle sense of melancholy.
Lionel initially wanted to console her, but when the words reached his lips, he hesitated on how to
xpress them.
The silence in the living room was finally shattered by a knock on the door, and both of them snapped back to the present.
Sheena glanced at the monitoring devices on the table, and Lionel, understanding her signal, quickly repositioned all the devices. He then hurried upstairs, returning to his room, and locking the door.
The knocking grew more urgent, hinting at impatience.
Sheena calmly approached the door.
As it swung open, Sheena saw Nathaniel adorned in a luxurious mink coat, and he did not appear as if he had once been tortured in a high–security prison, gaining back the refined charm he once had.
When he smiled, his sapphire–blue eyes slightly narrowed, and he appeared warm yet sinister.
There was snow on his coat, and it seemed he had rushed here excitedly.
Seven years ago, Sheena might have been dazzled by this face. However, regardless of the alluring appearance, she was now utterly disgusted.
“It’s been nearly a week since we last met, and you’ve cleaned up quite well. Too bad, under this appearance lies a filthy heart, a creature worse than a beast.”
Rather than getting offended, Nathaniel laughed heartily. “Nana, you have such a sweet mouth, like it’s coated in honey. Even after all this time, you’re still so beautiful. Truly the woman I set my eyes
on.”
Sheena kept a cold expression, turning her head to look at the snow outside and ignoring his remarks. Nathaniel casually entered the living room, unbuttoning his coat and tossing it onto the sofa. “Are you getting used to living here? Was lunch to your taste? If not, I can rearrange everything.”
Sheena walked to the side sofa, poured herself a cup of tea, and replied, “The only thing unpleasant here is you. Why don’t you take a knife and kill yourself?”

“If I die, how can I marry you? Moreover, you won’t get Clear, and Elliot will die too. When you think about it, my life seems quite valuable, doesn’t it?”
Nathaniel’s remarks were making Sheena increasingly disgusted.
“I was definitely blind before for not seeing through your twisted heart. Back when you taught me to shoot, I should’ve turned around and shot you dead.”
Nathaniel found her provocations amusing and laughed.
“Nana, you’re truly adorable. The days after our marriage will be so much fun!”
As he spoke, his deep blue eyes stared directly at Sheena.
Uninterested in hearing more of his trash talk, Sheena interrupted, “I’m here now. When am I getting Clear?”
“No rush. Once you’ve familiarized yourself with this place for a few days, we’ll get the certificate first, then plan the wedding. On the night we share a bed, I’ll personally hand Clear over to you.”
Sheena immediately clenched her hands underneath the white woolen cloak.
Share a bed?
She would feel sick even if he touched a strand of her hair.
If such a night ever arrived, she would rather die and drag him along!
Suppressing the impulse to kill him immediately, Sheena regained some composure and coldly retorted, “It seems like you’re not entirely sure you can get Clear, right? I’ve heard before coming here that it’s a royal possession, and there’s only one in Laubabwe. How could the current king possibly give you the medicine?”
