Chapter 198

Elijah thought Sheena was indeed ruthless. Seeing her enjoying her meal, he planned to go upstairs and clean up a room for his stay.

“Hold on,”

“Sheena called after him. “Come here, stand opposite from me, and watch me finish my meal.”

Elijah, with a cold expression, followed her instructions. At first, he did not understand her intentions until he realized the spaghetti smelled delicious and saw Sheena eat with relish.

Elijah gulped, yet he still maintained a stern expression.

The fragrance was dangerously tempting. Moreover, he had just emptied his stomach. Watching someone else eat at this moment felt like torture, and Elijah finally grasped Sheena’s sadistic amusement.

After finishing the spaghetti, Sheena was satisfied and elegantly wiped her mouth with a tissue. Then, she looked at the gloomy man before her and instructed before going upstairs, ” Remember to clean the kitchen before sleeping. It should be as clean as it was before you entered. No slacking off.”

However, she caught sight of Elijah’s shirt and thought something was off…

Frowning, Sheena walked over and lightly tugged at his shirt collar, noticing a faint pink stain.

Was it blood?

Elijah noticed her gaze and explained, “It’s from the beef just now. It accidentally splattered on me while I was cooking.”

Sheena did not believe him, twisting the shirt collar and finding damp water stains. She raised her gaze to scrutinize Elijah.

He maintained a poker face and insisted, “I cleaned it because it was dirty.”

Sheena could not understand why Elijah would lie with a straight face.
