Sheena was shocked by the form of address.

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.

“Yes, Ms. Sheena.”
