Chapter 386
After searching around, Sheena returned to the living room and keenly noticed a sticky note in the fruit basket.
[Fruits are rich in vitamins. You should eat more.]
There were more notes on the refrigerator, and Sheena walked over to take them down.
[Eat more vegetables and carbohydrates. Stop being picky. Mushrooms might not taste good, but they are nutritious. You are too thin. I would still like you even if you were ten pounds heavier.]
Sheena went into the kitchen and removed a note from the coffee machine.
[Drink less coffee and tea at night. Even when busy with work, remember to rest. My heart aches when I see you staying up late.]
Sheena was touched by the messages, but she could not help but find it strange.

After waiting a few minutes without any response, Sheena heard a knock at the door. She felt a flicker of relief and turned to open it.
“Why didn’t you bring the keys…”
Her words abruptly halted because Lionel was the one standing at the door.
He held a porcelain jar, tears still fresh on his face, and his eyes were red. Behind him, Logan, Lance, and several men were also in tears.
Ford, Paul, and a few bodyguards stood nearby, their expressions somber.
Sheena’s heart skipped a beat, a strong sense of foreboding washing over her. Then, she asked coldly, “Where’s Elijah?”
Lionel looked at the porcelain in his arms, his voice filled with sorrow as he replied, “Mr. Freeman is here.”
Sheena’s gaze followed his glance, and a suspicion formed in her mind, though she refused to believe it.
Lionel, tearfully, explained, “Last night, Mr. Freeman secretly went to the abandoned warehouse on the eastern outskirts of the city to deal with the man in black. Unexpectedly, they had a backup plan. They drenched the entire warehouse with gasoline. By the twe arrived, Mr. Freeman was already in the midst of a blaze.”
Lionel could not continue, tears streaming down his face.
Everyone was in grief.
Sheena, too, was affected by this emotion, and her eyes reddened. Yet, she maintained a cold tone as she sneered. “So, you want to say this is his urn? Do you think I’d fall for such a petty trick?”
Logan cried even harder, and Lionel struggled to speak through his sobs.” Whether you believe it or not, Mr. Freeman was completely burned in the fire. We couldn’t bear it, so we cremated him. Thinking that he loved you the most, we brought him here before sending him to the Freeman mansion.”
Sheena stared at the urn containing Elijah’s ashes, suddenly flashing back to the nightmare she had in Svelton, the night when…
His eyes reflected sorrow and despair amid the flames, an image that remained vivid in her memory.
Sheena never expected it to be true.
Trembling, she took the urn from Lionel’s hands. Two tears rolled down uncontrollably. Wiping away her tears, she looked at Lionel with a smirk.

“Did he think I’d give him a chance by makingshed a few tears with this method? He’s dreaming!”
“Ashes, huh? Well, I’ll smash them, scatter them in the wind! Let’s see if he can keep pretending!”
Sheene eyes were teary, but she maintained an icy expression. She raised the urn high as if about to throw it down.
“Don’t!”
Lionel, Logan, and the others all kneeled with a thud.
“Mr. Freeman is truly gone! Whether you believe it or not, he can never come
back! He already had injuries, and he went there last night knowing he’d die! He died for you!”
Sheena stared at them in shock.
These people had fought alongside Elijah, a bunch of ruthless, tough, and
resilient men. Yet now, they were kneeling for this urn of ashes?
