I Became His Sweetheart by Bright Eyes

Chapter 264

An hour later, Sheena estimated that Elijah was about to wake up and entered his room. She had a chair brought in by the bodyguards and sat beside his bed, waiting with an unreadable expression.

Elijah woke up in a haze, his vision still blurry. However, as he turned his head, he caught sight of the familiar figure by the bedside and instinctively grabbed her wrist.

“Sheena, have you forgiven me?” His fever had not completely subsided, and his touch was radiating warmth.

Sheena frowned but did not pull away from his grip. However, her eyes carried a strong sense of disgust. “I’ll ask you one last time. Where did you send that person?”

Upon hearing this, Elijah’s grip slowly loosened. Seemingly angered, he turned over, facing away from her, closed his eyes, and pretended to be asleep as if intentionally ignoring her words.

Sheena’s patience had been completely depleted. “Since you’re so stubborn and won’t speak, I won’t waste any more time. You sent that person away, and I’ll make you pay. Why don’t you endure the punishment for their sins?”

After saying this, she called out, “Ford, John, come in!”

The two men entered the room obediently. Sheena smirked and ordered, “Take him to the prison, and make sure to pay him extra attention!”

Ford immediately stepped forward, pleading, “Ms. Lawson, you shouldn’t do this! With Mr. Freeman’s current health condition, he won’t survive more than three days there!”

Sheena glared at him. “Fine, then you go in his place. I’ll give you extra attention too.”

Ford hesitated, and suddenly, his sympathy was suppressed. Reluctantly, he followed John to pull Elijah out of bed.
