Chapter 222

While Elijah was lost in thoughts, Sheena got tired of his meaningless, sarcastic remarks and turned to leave. However, Elijah, still holding onto her wrist, prevented her from leaving.

Annoyed, Sheena asked, “Elijah, what exactly are you trying to do?”

With a pale face, Elijah appeared pitiful as he looked at her. “Sheena, my back hurts a lot. Can you kiss it better?”

“Huh?” Sheena was surprised by this request.

“Did they hit your back or your head? Can’t you speak like a normal adult?”

Elijah remained silent. He was genuinely in pain and exhausted, hoping for a bit of comfort from her.

Seeing his lack of response, Sheena forcibly freed her wrist from his grip and tried to leave.

The reason for my delayed return was that I was being pursued, and those people were sent by Corey Lawson.”
