Chapter 723
Upon hearing Sheena’s soft yet icy voice, Lionel was so startled that he almost dropped his phone right then and there.
For a while, he dared not speak, holding his breath.
Sheena sternly reminded him, “Lionel, you better help Elliot come clean, Confession may lighten the punishment, but resistance will only make it worse, Otherwise, you’ll both face the miserable consequences!”
Her last few words were uttered through gritted teeth, dripping with a sinister tone.
Fearing for the worst, Lionel quickly explained, “Actually, Elliot is considering your well–being, He loves you too much, and he…”
Amidst a mix of pleading words, Sheena, after two minutes, finally understood the whole story.
“Alright, I get it. You handled this quite well, and I won’t give you a hard time. I absolutely won’t let Elliot seek revenge on you secretly. Don’t worry.”
In truth, Lionel was not as afraid of getting punished, but he actually feared that Sheena might develop resentment toward Elliot.
“Sheena, don’t be mad at Elliot. He…”
Uninterested in hearing further pleas, Sheena coldly cut him off, “You don’t need to worry. He’ll be fine.”
With that, she hung up the phone.
The air suddenly fell quiet, and a chilly atmosphere lingered in the entire bedroom.
Sheena turned to Elliot, but something was unexpectedly placed in her hands before she could mock
him.
Lowering her head, she saw the ruler from the bedside drawer.
“Oh, so you even brought out the ruler on your own. What’s the meaning behind this? Longing for some beating, are we?” Sheena asked with a knowing smirk.
Elliot bit his lower lip, ears slightly red.
His voice lacked confidence as he uttered, “I messed up. I didn’t think it through. Please don’t be mad at me.”
Sheena looked at him seriously. “Eli, the babies are ours, and you don’t have the right to make decisions for me.”
“I know…” Elliot avoided her gaze. “I was just thinking… That was why I took the initiative to discuss this with you as soon as we got home.”

Playing with the ruler absentmindedly, Sheena casually exposed him, “If it weren’t for Lionel’s interference this time, would you have discussed it with me?”
“I’m sorry.”
Elliot did not know how to argue. Though he did initiate the conversation with Nana himself, saying more would probably make it worse.
Hence, it was better to admit it.
Thinking about it, he steeled himself and showed her his palms.
“As long as it can calm your anger, I’ll accept the punishment.”
“Eli, just remember that this is something between us. In the future, you have to discuss it with me, and you can’t make decisions alone like it’s a work matter.”
Sheena stared at him, feeling annoyed. She did not want to hit him, not at all.
Besides, such a childish punishment would not faze him, especially considering he had already
recovered.
He just wanted her to vent her anger.
Nonetheless, what Elliot did today was indeed over the line.
That would not stop her from giving him a lesson!
Thinking about it, Sheena smirked with a cunning glint in her eyes.
“You did cross the line, but did I say I would hit your palms?”
Elliot suddenly raised his head, sensing a subtle threat in her mischievous expression.
Sheena’s smile deepened. She sat cross–legged on the bed and patted the space in front of her.
“Get down here.”
Elliot was momentarily confused. He seemed to understand her intention but was not entirely sure.
“Are you suggesting… spanking me on my… buttocks?”
Sheena nodded immediately. “Eli, you’re so smart!”
“No way!” Elliot’s ears turned red, and his face and neck followed suit.
For him, this was not just a punishment. It was humiliating.
He would rather die than comply!
“Nana, I’m the head of the Jenkins family, the Chief of National Investigation Bureau. Do I not deserve any respect?” Elliot protested, biting his lip, and staring at her.
