Sheena maintained a polite smile, saying, “Mr. Nicholls, aren’t you a funny guy? We’ve never been that close.”
Nathaniel was taken aback, and he instinctively reached for her hand, but she evaded i attempt.
“You don’t even lettouch you? I understand you night harbor resentment from back then, but I was so young and didn’t have a choice…‘
“Mr. Nicholls,” Sheena interrupted, her expression turning sour when addressing past matters. “If you broughtout today just to discuss these things, this meal is entirely. unnecessary.”

Except for the sounds of utensils clinking against plates, the surroundings were quiet. Again, Nathaniel initiated a conversation to break the lence. “This time, I plan to stay in Farlem for a while. I heard from Howard that you’ve been investigating smatters recently. Don’t worry, I’ll help you.”
“Sure,” Sheena replied simply.

Nathaniel froze.

Sheena casually continued eating, saying, “But you haven’t changed. You used to be domineering, making decisions for me. You still do now. However, I’m no longer the clueless little girl who used to follow you around.

Sheena just sundled without rebutting. Perhaps many girls did indeed seek that. However, she always hated being controlled by men and preferred being her own queen. As for men, as long as she had money, and as long as she wanted to, she could always keep a few men around her.
The meal left Sheena with a tasteless experience.
Coming out of the restaurant, the weather had changed. The wind was strong, blowing a cool breeze on their faces, Nathaniel took off his military coat, ready to drape it over her.
“No need, I’m not cold,” Sheena refused.
Nathaniel smiled, still draping the coat over her shoulders, and wrapping her small frame.
Sheena was displeased as Nathaniel did not seem to quite grasp her message during the meal. As she was about to speak again, Yuri suddenly approached, whispering softly in her ear.
“Miss, Mr. Lawson askedto find you. Your guess was indeed correct. Over the past few days, they’ve sent three waves of people to hunt down the released assassins. Unfortunately, one died during the escape, and we rescued another. He wants to meet you.”
