Chapter 29
Fortunately, no one else was in the restroom with Sheena, but she could not be sure no one would come in later.
She tried to go around Elijah to open the door, but he grabbed her by the wrist.
Elijah teased, “What are you afraid of? I told you I wanted to talk, and I won’t let you escape this time.”
What was there to talk about? The situation between them was crystal clear.
Sheena shrugged off his hand and rubbed her wrist. “I’m not afraid of anything. I just find it unbelievable that the renowned Mr. Freeman would come to the women’s restroom to
confront someone. This is quite a surprise.”
Elijah stared at her as he casually lit a cigarette, its tobacco scent filling the air, much to Sheena’s displeasure.
The swirling smoke added to his enigmatic aura, and he remained expressionless as he finally began to question her. “Who was that man you were having dinner with?”
Sheena was puzzled and rolled her eyes. “That’s none of your business.”
Ignoring her response, Elijah continued, “It seemed like he was interested in pursuing you. What about you? Do you like him too?”
‘What?‘ She thought.
Sheena gave him a strange look and asked, “So, you came here to confront me because you’re jealous?”
Elijah was left speechless by her remark.
Unable to contain herself, Sheena burst into a fit of laughter.
His face instantly turned darker, and he struggled to refute her words.
Seeing him back down, Sheena felt a sense of satisfaction and decided to tease him further. ” Does your little fiancee know that you came to confront your ex–wife in the women’s restroom? I bet her reaction would be quite entertaining. I’d love to see that!”
With that, she took out her phone, but before she could do anything, Elijah pressed down on her wrist. His other hand gripped her shoulder and pinned her to the wall, leaving her with no room to escape.
Sheena struggled, but he held her hands up over her head firmly against the wall.
Elijah’s intense gaze bore into her, his even breaths brushed against her face, causing her cheeks to turn red.
The dim and warm lighting of Douglas‘ restroom enveloped them, and the atmosphere became inexplicably sensual.
It was almost identical to the situation in the car park last night, except this time, the car was replaced by a wall.
Sheena was furious. “You’re a persistent jerk! Are you out of your mind?”
He hardly cared about her in the past, but ever since their divorce, he had been bothering her
nonstop.
What the hell was wrong with him?!
Elijah looked at her long, fluttering eyelashes and suddenly remembered her triumphant smile from last night.
His gaze shifted to her soft lips, and he had a sudden impulse to take a bite. Although he had no idea how it would taste, it would undoubtedly make her jump with anger.
Sensing something amiss, Sheena followed his gaze and felt a sense of dread, her heart beating wildly.

Her glare at him carried along an intense disgust, and through clenched teeth, she said, Elijah, one day, I’ll make you kneel before me and pay the price for everything you did then and now.”
Sheena’s words were indeed full of arrogance.
“I’ll be waiting.” Elijah chuckled, clearly not taking her words seriously. He did not believe she could challenge him.
“But for now, you must pay the price for provoking me!”
As his thin lips got closer, Sheena discreetly ground her teeth, preparing to bite him hard and spill his blood all over!
