Chapter 623

“I sent you a message telling you that I’d be eating out tonight and would be back later. Why did you cout looking for me?”

Elliot’s handsface darkened, expressing his displeasure. “I got anxious. I didn’t see you all day and waiting until evening felt unbearable,”

In front of Naomi and Gabrielle, Sheena blushed and struggled a bit.

“C–Can you please putdown.

Elliot held her even tighter, leaned close to her ear, and lowered his voice to a soft whisper, “Nana, don’t forget about the three rules we agreed upon.”

They had agreed that outside, Sheena would pretend to go along with whatever he said. Once they were home, she had full control.

Sheena immediately stopped struggling and whispered, “I haven’t eaten enough. You said you’d grill meat forat home. What kind of meat are you planning to grill?”

Elliot raised an eyebrow, smiling mischievously. “Make a guess.

That expression….

It was definitely not the kind of meat she had in mind!

Next to them, Naomi and Gabrielle, being relatively young, could not understand what the couple was saying. However, witnessing their intimate car–biting and affectionate behavior, they could not help

but feel envious.

Suddenly, the grilled meat on their plates seemed less appetizing!

Sheena blushed at the situation, feeling a bit embarrassed. “You two enjoy your meal. I’ll leave my card at the front desk to settle the bill. Order anything you want. I’ll be leaving first!”

“Hurry up!” Gabrielle teased, looking envious. “If you don’t leave soon, Naomi and I’ll no longer be in the mood to eat!”

Elliot smirked as he looked at Sheena. “Did you hear that? They’re telling us not to disturb them while they’re eating. Let’s go home!”

He carried Sheena out of the restaurant, allowing Ford to take the car Sheena had arrived in back to their place while Sheena rode in Elliot’s car.

During the drive, Elliot told Sheena about the encounter with Colin in the hallway.

“Colin wanted to poison me?” Sheena was somewhat dumbfounded when she heard it. “I’ve known. him for many years, and I understand him quite well. He doesn’t seem like someone who would do such a foolish thing.”

Moreover, with Katie in jail, the Upton family was relying solely on him. What he did, regardless of the outcome, was self–destructive.

This reckless move was very out of character for him.

Unless…

“Someone must be trying to egg him on and promise him sbenefits. Otherwise, he wouldn’t take such a desperate gamble.”

Elliot nodded. “I’ll have Lionel investigate this. But I’m curious. How do you want to handle the Upton family matters?”

Sheena rubbed her temples, feeling a bit tired, and spoke casually, “Once we catch Colin, he’ll be charged with attempted murder. As for the Upton family affairs, deal with it however you feel like.”

She had no energy left to deal with that. At the moment, she just wanted to resolve Nathaniel’s situation as soon as possible.

Thinking about all this, Sheena asked, “How’s your health lately? Feeling okay? Should I find tto accompany you to the lab for another check–up?”

“No need,” Elliot replied bluntly.

He gripped the steering wheel, and his pitch–black eyes were fixed on the road ahead.

The yellow glow from the streetlights outlined his handsface.

Lately, his vision would go black for a moment every day, irregularly occurring at any time, and the periods of darkness were becoming longer. He did not know when his eyesight would completely fail

perhaps even the very next day…

If he told Sheena, she would undoubtedly do whatever it took to fulfill Nathaniel’s conditions for his cure. However, that would leave him in a state worse than death.

“Eli, what are you thinking about?”

While lost in thought, Sheena’s small hand caressed his face.

Elliot controlled the steering wheel with one hand while the other gently held hers, fingers

intertwined.

“Just thinking about you.”

Sheena blushed instantly.

Luckily, Lionel had gone to chase after Colin tonight, and Elliot was driving, leaving the car to the two

of them. Otherwise, she would probably die of embarrassment.
