Chapter 458

Elliot took his medicine, and his complexion improved slightly. Exhausted, he nestled into her lap and fell asleep.

Sheena checked the time and noticed that it was already quite late. If she left now, she risked waking Elliot, who was peacefully sleeping. However, staying meant dealing with Corey, which could turn out badly.

Sheena hesitated.

She observed Elliot and found him in a serene slumber. Even asleep, his features were like a divine sculpture, exceptionally handsome. His face captivated her, and she only snapped out of her reverie when her phone rang.

“Sheena, how is he? Is he badly hurt?” Barbara asked.

Sheena cleared her throat, deliberately adding a hint of a sob.

“Barbara, you know how strong Corey is. Eli already had injuries, and now they have worsened. He’s been unconscious since we returned to the Jenkins family.”

Barbara caught on to her implication but still asked, “Is it that serious? Corey’s action was quite reckless earlier. So, what’s your plan? Are you coming back tonight?”
