Once the nurse had finished administering the IV, Sheena asked everyone to leave. Seeing Elijah’s

hand gripping her wrist so hard that the skin turned purple, she frowned and said, “You’re hurting me. I

won’t leave until we finish our conversation, but if you keep holding on, I’ll leave immediately.”

Elijah hesitated, but under her cold gaze, he relented and finally let go of her hand.

Sheena sat on the chair by the bedside, getting straight to the point calmly, “Elijah, you were once

proud. I don’t understand why you readily agreed to sign the agreement back then. Was it really just to

repay debts? Is it worth making yourself so miserable and humiliated?”

Elijah met her gaze.

“Once upon a time, you loved me so much, giving everything for me wholeheartedly. But I didn’t cherish

it. Having walked the path you took back then, I finally understand how much pain you felt.

Elijah stopped mid–sentence, his eyes filled with sincerity as he continued, “Sheena, I know I’ve said

hurtful things before. From now on, you can scold me every day to vent, and I won’t argue back. I’ll

repay you everything that I owe you, even if it’s just a sentence. Will you give me one last chance?”

Scold him every day to vent her anger?

Was he dumb?

With a cold expression, Sheena spoke her mind for the first time, “Initially, I thought of us becoming

strangers after the divorce. However, Faye, Erin, and Jennifer wouldn’t leave me alone. You even sent

Leon to kill me for Jennifer. Why should I give you a chance? Why should I give the Freeman family a



chance?”

Elijah widened his eyes, shocked. “Wait. What are you talking about?”

Sending Leon to kill her? When did that happen?

Ignoring his questions, Sheena added, “Now, you’re just my servant in my eyes. After this one–year

agreement is over, I’ll permanently let you go, and we’ll owe each other nothing. From then on, we’ll

go our separate ways.”

Owe each other nothing?

Elijah’s eyes lit up, and he said, “So, if I repay this year’s debt, our past can be forgiven, and I’ll have a

chance to start anew with you?”

Sheena chuckled coldly. “I really don’t understand why you like to pretend you’re deeply in love with

me now. Anyway, your chances were already used up on the morning we went to get our divorce

certificate. Don’t you find it ridiculous acting all affectionate in front of me now?”

After saying that, she stood up and was about to leave.

“Don’t go!”

Elijah anxiously reached out, but due to his weak body and inertia, he fell to the ground when he tried

to grab her wrist again. His knees hit the floor with a painful thud, and the sound alone made it clear

how much it hurt.

Elijah winced, his features contorted in pain. It took him a few seconds to compose himself before

looking up again.

“I was blind back then. You spent three years in the Freeman family and another three years married to

me, yet I still didn’t recognize you as the girl who saved me on Pine Street. That was my mistake, and I

regret it! If you don’t forgive me, I’ll accept it. But what you said about me sending Leon to kill you, I

swear I absolutely did not!”

Sheena chuckled coldly. Lately, Elijah had been putting on an act in front of her, and this time, it was

the most endearing yet also the most fake.

“Helping you back then was just a small gesture, and I didn’t care about it at all. Moreover, if I knew the

boy in that car would grow up to be you, I might have added another stab. So, this false sense of

gratitude is completely unnecessary.”

With that, she freed Elijah’s hand. As she left, she left him with a final threat, “Behave and rest in the

hospital. If you pull any more stunts refusing IVs and medication, you’ll face the consequences!”

As Sheena exited, a man dressed as a physician entered the room.

Seeing Elijah sitting on the floor with the newly inserted IV falling off, the man rushed to assist him.

“Mr. Freeman, it’s me!”

Removing his mask, the man revealed himself as Lionel. When Elijah saw him, his expression turned

incredibly cold, with a deep–seated hostility that cut to the bone.
