Elijah remained silent as his gaze sternly fixed upon her.

“Eli, letexplain…” Jennifer stammered, feeling uneasy. “Don’t jump to conclusions. It was just a casual chat.”

Beads of sweat formed on Jennifer’s forehead. She felt anxious as she was unsure how much of her conversation with Katie he had overheard. She decided to play innocent and act clueless.

“What are you planning?” Elijah’s voice was cold and unyielding, disregarding her explanation.

Hearing his tone, Jennifer’s right hand clutched the bed sheet tightly, wondering if Elijah had heard everything.

“Nothing. I was just chatting casually with a friend. Don’t you believe me?” She desperately avoided his scrutinizing gaze, feigning innocence.

Elijah ignored her pitiful expression, cutting through her facade with his gaze that was as sharp as blades. “You should know that even if you don’t confess, I can still have someone investigate. But by then, I won’t give you any more chances.”

Elijah foyed with his wristwatch, his expression unreadable, leaving Jennifer even more

anxious.

Jennifer bit her lip when she realized she could not escape his interrogation in this scheme. Soon, tears welled up in her eyes, and she started to sob.

“Eli! I’m just so frustrated! You and Sheena are divorced, yet you’re still so concerned about her! I barely even visited Ocean Avenue, let alone lived there! But you transferred it to her. She not only humiliatedat the banquet, but she even had someone beatup. I was almost violated!”

Jennifer continued, “Eli! I hate her. I truly do! I just wanted to teach her a little lesson. What’s wrong with that?”

Then, she threw herself into Elijah’s arms, attempting to play the victim. However, he pushed her away gently with a frown.

“I’ll ask you one more time. Where is Sheena?” Elijah spoke with determination.

“Eli, we’ve known each other for so long. Am I worth less than a woman who has no connection with you anymore?”

Jennifer sobbed, her voice choked with tears. “I’m your fiancee! Why are you so heartless? She’s the reason I’m suffering in the hospital now. Can you bear to seego through this?”

Elijah’s face remained cold as he stood up, a subtle trace of fatigue flickering in his dark eyes.

The hallway was unusually quiet, with occasional nurses passing by, treading softly and hurrying along

Elijah reached an empty corner and made a call.

“Jonah, find Sheena’s location and send it towithin ten minutes. Be quick.”

Sheena drove out of the city, taking a shortcut to Gravel Hill, She chose a route without surveillance or traffic lights, accelerating at the maximum speed,

The wind whistled past her open car window, providing an exhilarating rush. Unfortunately, it was not a leisure trip as she had urgent matters to attend to and could not appreciate the beauty of the

countryside.

Then, she pressed the gas pedal harder, and the engine roared as she sped ahead.

Suddenly her phone rang, and she glanced at the screen before answering with her Bluetooth headset.

“Ms. Sheena, I assyou’re almost here. Just a reminder to take a right turn after exiting the tunnel. You’ll find a run–down cabin halfway up Gravel Hill,” the kidnapper deliberately lowered their voice.

Sheena checked her navigation, made the indicated right turn, and found a car with a fake license plate parked at the foot of the hill. She compared it to the image she had received from Dark Bell and confirmed it was the vehicle that the kidnappers used to take Phoebe.

Sheena hid her car behind the bushes and hiked the hillside alone. The small cabin was hidden deep within the forest, appearing rundown from a distance, looking more like a shack than anything else.
