“You bastard!” Elijah’s veins tulged as he grabbed Leon by the collar and delivered a fierce punch to his face
Leon was left dizzy from the blow, and he wiped the blood from his lip, just smiling without
Then, Elijah kicked Leon’s stomach, and he tumbled to the ground, struggling to rise as he clutched his belly.
“I’m sorry, Mr. Freeman. Even if you were to kill me here today, I wouldn’t tell you where Sheena is hiding.”
“When I find her, I’ll come back for you.
With those words, Elijah strode out of Leon’s apartment, instructing his men to lock him in the bedroom and assigning bodyguards to watch over him.
As he left the apartment, Elijah immediately made a call.
“Jonah, quickly check Sheena’s flight from last night and where she would have landed. Hurry.
Later, he settled into his car, his impatience growing as he lit a cigarette. By the time he reached his eighth cigarette, the phone finally rang.

Displeased, Katie disdainfully sized him up, attempting to push past him. “Do you know who I am? How dare you stop me?”

Enraged by his attitude, Katie raised her hand and delivered a resounding slap across his face The sharp sound echoed through the quiet residential area.
“Are you blind? I am Howard’s fiancee! The Upton family’s heiress! Who are you to stop me?” Katie asserted her identity arrogantly-
