Chapter 434
Elliot gently released her from his embrace, stepped back, and slowly sank to his knees, his back
straight, kneeling before her. She glanced at this familiar gesture and almost instantly understood, her
eyes reddening.
“Elijah…”
It was not a question but an affirmation.
“It’s me.”
Elliot did not deliberately lower his voice. Noticing the glistening tears in her eyes, his heart ached.
Overwhelmed by guilt, his eyes welled up as well.
Sheena tilted her head back, suppressing the tears that were about to fall, replacing them with a cold
expression.
“You lied to me? Clearly, you didn’t die, yet you didn’t come to find me. Instead, you deliberately wrote
a sentimental farewell letter. Is it all a joke to you? Are you watching how I get deceived, how stupid I
am not to see through your act?”
“No, Nana, I…”
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇt“Shut up! Do you even have the right to call me that? Don’t you prefer calling me Ms. Lawson?”
Elliot’s heart sank. He cautiously held her small hand, saying, “I’m sorry. Last night was my mistake,
and I should’ve been honest. But when I wrote that letter, I wasn’t deceiving you. I can explain!”
“Do you think I’ll believe you now? Why did you choose tonight to confess? Because you realized I
didn’t believe your acting, afraid that I would expose you first. You were forced to confess because you
saw that you couldn’t keep it hidden any longer, right?”
Elliot hesitated slightly. Although not entirely accurate, she had indeed guessed part of it.
Seeing his expression, Sheena confirmed her suspicions, her eyes filled with even more disdain.
“I don’t care whether you’re Elliot or Elijah. I hate it when people lie to me, especially faking death to
deceive my emotions! It’s too much!”
Elliot looked at her, suppressing the urge to cry. “I didn’t deceive your emotions. Can you please listen
to my explanation?”
“I don’t want to listen to anything! I never want to see you again!”
She flung his hand away and turned to leave.
“Don’t go, Nana!”
Elliot crawled a few steps, trying to wrap his arms around her waist.
“Get lost!”

She slapped him on the face with a force that was not too strong.
Elliot’s cheek only turned slightly red from the slap, but Sheena paused because she noticed that
despite being hit, he was actually smiling.
His dark eyes sparkled as he spoke softly, “Is one slap enough to vent your anger? If not, feel free to
continue. I can take it. I’m quite resilient!”
Sheena stared at him coldly, as if trying to figure out what game he was playing, her eyes devoid of
warmth.
Elliot continued, “But don’t use your hands. They’ll hurt. Use this instead. Whip me until you feel
satisfied.”
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmAs he spoke, he took a whip from his lower back and eagerly handed it to her.
Sheena neither took it nor spoke.
Elliot took matters into his own hands, forcefully placing the whip’s handle into hers. He then
straightened his back, tilted his head, and looked at her with anticipation, obediently waiting for a
beating.
In front of her, he lowered himself to the lowest stance, sacrificing his posture and dignity.
However, the more Sheena looked, the more irritated she became. She glanced at the whip in her
hand, suddenly recalling Lionel’s words when she entered. It was only now that she understood
Lionel’s intention.
Clearly, they were about to embark on a mission later, yet Elliot intentionally staged this act of apology.
He pretended to be submissive, feigning innocence while fearing the pain, and even had Lionel remind
her not to be too harsh.
Was he putting on a show for her?
It would be a waste of his elaborate efforts if she did not give him a couple of lashes!
