Chapter 322

Elijah quickly grabbed a trench coat from the rack by the door and helped Sheena put it on, saying, “The weather is getting colder, and you should try your best to stay warm even indoors. With your figure, you’d look equally good even with an extra layer.”

Sheena did not refuse and observed him.

Elijah was earnestly helping her into the coat. Even though he seemed unaffected, Sheena could tell he was sick as his handsome face appeared somewhat pale, and his thin lips lacked color.

“If you’re unwell, take a day off. No need to push yourself to go to the Freeman Group,” Sheena said.

Elijah was caught off guard by her words, but he quickly responded, “Alright.”

Once the coat was on, Elijah pulled out her chair, and Sheena walked over to sit down, silently eating her breakfast. As she was halfway through her meal, the outside of the mansion became lively with the laughter of a few bodyguards.

Ford and Paul, recovering from their wounds, had just been discharged from the hospital. Ian, the newcomer, still had some bruises on his face but was healing.
