Chapter 256

Elijah snorted, giving Lionel a disdainful look. “The Upton family is the weakest among the four major

families in Svelton. Besides, he clearly didn’t bring many bodyguards this time, obviously coming

without anyone knowing. Can’t you handle that?”

Lionel pursed his lips, feeling like Elijah was throwing unreasonable challenges his way.

“Hm?” Elijah continued, glaring at him.

Lionel instantly cowered, chuckling nervously. “I can handle it! I’ll discuss it with Logan and the others.

However, you might need to cooperate when the time comes.”

Elijah’s expression returned to normal. “Good.”

Sheena had shown a bit more trust in him in the past half–month, not making John and Sawyer watch

him daily, which pleased him.

Three days later, Sheena planned to leave work an hour early because she had dinner plans with

Colin. Just as she finished organizing her desk and was ready to head out, she received a call from

Ford at Ocean Avenue.

“Ms. Lawson, Mr. Freeman accidentally got injured and is bleeding from his waist. You need to come

back and check on him!”

Sheena found it strange and asked, “If he’s injured, why not call a doctor? Why do I need to come

back?”

“Mr. Freeman said it’s an old injury from when he was looking for you in the mountains in Luivine.

Today, he accidentally worsened it while doing household chores. Besides, his health is not what it

used to be, and I’m helping him stop the bleeding. Won’t you come back to see him?”

It was from the old injury on his waist caused by Corey’s men.

“Okay, I got it.”

After hanging up on Ford, she tried calling Colin’s phone, but the voicemail indicated he was out of the

service area. Sheena did not dwell on it, assuming he was busy with work.

With an hour to spare before the scheduled dinner, Sheena decided to drive back to Ocean Avenue.

Upon reaching the second floor, she found Ford wrapping Elijah’s waist with layers of bandages, still

showing faint traces of blood.

Sheena took a seat nearby and asked, “What happened? Wasn’t the wound healed a long time ago?

How did it reopen?”

Upon seeing her return, Elijah smiled happily. “Because today is a special day, I wanted to cook a few

more dishes. Unfortunately, I accidentally hurt my waist in the kitchen.”

A special day?

Was it not Colin’s birthday?

What special day could it be for her?

Noticing her furrowed brows, Elijah explained, “Did you forget? Six years ago today, Grandpa adopted

you from the orphanage and brought you to the Freeman mansion. It was also the first… No, the

second time we met.”

Sheena was stunned, not expecting Elijah to remember the matter as she had long forgotten it.

Elijah seemed to sense her thoughts and continued, “Ever since I realized I truly liked and cared about

you, I’ve kept everything about your past in my heart.”

Sheena remained silent, her expression unchanged.

Elijah finished bandaging and approached d her, looking at her with hopeful eyes.

“Sheena, when you first entered the Freeman mansion six years ago, I wasn’t there for you. Let me

make it up to you this time. I’ve prepared a lot of dishes. Will you have dinner with me?”

Sheena’s frown deepened, and her expression gradually turned serious. “No.”
