Chapter 365
Sheena did not mince her words and openly admitted, “Yes, if not for this, how else could i catch you?”
Nathaniel chuckled wryly. “When did you start being cautious around me?”
“Since you pulled out the revolver and demanded I choose between shooting Elijah and Jennifer. That’s when I sensed something was off.”
He stared at her, somewhat doubtful.
She remained expressionless, continuing, “It wasn’t until the last tyou were leaving Farlem. I saw the person in black in the Eros Bar corridor and combined with the sulfuric acid incident that day, I began suspecting your connection with the Lawson family.”
Nathaniel managed a pale smile. “So that’s it.”
“Nate, you’ve been the only person I admired since childhood. Why would you want to kill me?

He shook his head, still denying, “I didn’t. When the Lawson family announced your death, you had no idea how devastated I was. I only found out you were alive half a month ago. I had to fake a cooperation to cto Farlem and see you.”

“On the night at the bar, I stood on the second floor. I didn’t plan to take action until Elijah cin. I knew he would protect you, so I had to act. I didn’t mean to target you. How could I bear to let you get hurt?”
As he spoke, Nathaniel gazed at Sheena affectionately. Despite the bruises on his face, he was still incredibly handsome. Yet, Sheena had no tto appreciate his looks.
She scoffed and said, “Isn’t it ridiculous for you to say that? If he didn’t protect me, I would be the one injured right now, and you’re still claiming you weren’t targeting me.”
Her eyes grew colder, losing patience with the conversation. “Stop lying. I just want to know who from the Lawson family is trying to harm me. I won’t make things difficult for you if you
tell me.”
but that
person won’t.”
Nathaniel lowered his gaze, looking sad. “You might spare me,
“That person?” Sheena frowned. “Who are you talking about?”
Nathaniel met Sheena’s gaze and spoke with deep sorrow, “Nana, that little pet of yours isn’t a good guy. He’s been deceiving you with his acting, hiding more secrets than I have. Don’t fall for his tricks!”
“He has secrets, and I’ve always known. I just don’t bother to dig into them,” Sheena replied casually.
After all, she and Elijah had only a one-year agreement. Once it was over, they would part ways. Hence, his secrets did not interest her much.
Nathaniel was pleasantly surprised, smiling. “Looks like you aren’t too concerned about him

either! That’s good. Nana, you should thank me. After all, I helped you get rid of this clingy pet.
Seeing her frown, Nathaniel’s eyes widened in feigned astonishment. “Don’t you know? Well, he has been lying to you. Why don’t you check his injuries when you’re back? You’ll find out how much he’s been hiding from you.”
Check his injuries?
Sheena furrowed her brow.
Was Elijah’s injury not just a superficial skin wound from sulfuric acid?
She found it strange, but Nathaniel was still smiling. However, upon closer inspection, that smile seemed mischievous, not like a lie but more like he knew something she did not.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm“Explain more,” Sheena demanded.
Nathaniel shook his head, still smiling.
Sheena grew annoyed but could not take any action against him. After all, he was the head of the Special Investigation Department, holding a high position in the Froania military and the
area.
Moreover, she lacked a legitimate reason to confront him and did not want trouble for herself or Corey. In the end, she left the small cabin.
As soon as the door closed, Elijah approached her. “How did it go? Did he confess?”
Sheena shook her head. “Never mind. I’ve confirmed he conspired with others to harm me. We’ll find other ways to investigate. Have Lionel and the others destroy the evidence and discreetly send him
back tomorrow.”
Elijah did not agree. Even though she could take her tto investigate, he could not.
His twas running out.
“Sheena, if you trust me, leave this to me. Within two days, I’ll make him spill everything.” “You know his identity. Are you sure you want to take action against him?” Sheena stared at him seriously. “Did you punch his face? Do you plan to continue your own form of justice? The Special Investigation Department and the Nicholls family won’t let you off.”
He pursed his lips and smiled, not taking her warning seriously. “Rest assured, I’ll handle it properly.”
Their eyes locked in a serious gaze.
