Chapter 227

Nana?

Sheena was shocked by the form of address.

Was Elijah also drunk?

Sheena remained silent.

However, Colin felt a surge of anger after hearing Elijah interrupt his confession. Fueled by alcohol, he

got up from the floor and rushed over, grabbing Elijah’s collar spitefully. His other hand clenched into a

fist, ready to strike Elijah’s face.

“You hurt her a few days ago. What right do you have to linger around her?”

Elijah remained still and quiet, fearlessly meeting Colin’s gaze.

Colin, furious, was about to land his punch.

Sheena shouted, “Sawyer, Owen!”

Sawyer and Owen immediately jumped in through the open window, separating the two men.

Frustrated that he could not punch Elijah, Colin complained, “Sheena, why won’t you let me teach him

a lesson?”

Sheena signaled to Sawyer and Owen, saying, “Mr. Upton is drunk. Send him home.”

“Yes, Ms. Sheena.”

“I’m not drunk, really… Sheena, I’m not drunk…”

Colin muttered as the two bodyguards supported his unsteady body, his voice fading away.

Finally, it was quiet once more.

Elijah also stopped pretending to have a stomachache, his face returning to its usual calmness.

Sheena looked at him and mocked, “Why not continue the act?”

Elijah stayed silent and stood in front of her. He knelt on both knees. This time, it was his

choice to kneel.

Colin knelt on one knee to express his love, while Elijah knelt on both knees as an act of

atonement.

Sheena could not understand his actions and asked, “What are you doing?”

Elijah raised his head, locking eyes with her. His gaze was unwavering as he revealed, “There’s

something that has troubled me for many years. Can you tell me the truth?”

“Go on.”

“On March 14th, 13 years ago, did you go to Pine Street? Did you save a little boy?”

Sheena was about to deny Elijah’s question when he continued, “If you continue to brush me off like

before, I’ll keep investigating. I won’t stop until I get the final answer.”

Sheena had never considered that incident significant and asked, “Is my honest answer

important? Does getting this result matter?”

“It’s important.”

Locking eyes, Sheena saw anticipation, earnestness, and a desire for her to speak the truth in his

gaze.

“If I give you my answer, will you stop the investigation?”

“Yes.”

The man’s tone was resolute.

Sheena gave in, thinking the incident was purely coincidental, a trivial matter for her. Hence, it was

okay to tell him.

“Yes, I went there. It seems I saved a boy from a car accident that day. I don’t remember the details.”

Elijah’s eyes reddened slightly, and his deep voice trembled as he said, “That’s enough.”

Over these years, he had truly been mistaken!

Terribly mistaken!

The girl he loved and the one he owed gratitude to turned out to be the same person! Moreover, he had

the chance to be with her, yet he did not cherish it.

Elijah’s heart ached sharply. Taking a step toward Sheena on his knees, he called out with teary eyes,

“Nana, I…”

“Stop!”

Sheena was unnerved by the form of address. Every time he softened his tone, it felt like he had

ulterior motives.

Why could he not just speak normally?

Also, Nana?

Who did he think he was to call her that?

Sheena sternly warned him, “You have two choices: call me My Lady or Sheena.”

Elijah’s face paled. After many dilemmas, he replied, “Sheena it is.”
