Chapter 262

Noticing her icy stare, Elijah suddenly felt extremely uncomfortable.

Did it mean she would punish him for Colin’s sake? So, did she genuinely like Colin?

Elijah’s heart throbbed painfully.

“I don’t know!” Elijah said, his eyes reddening, looking at her with utmost seriousness. “Is it because

you like that person so much that you want to punish me for what I did to that person? I only sent that

person away!”

Sheena burst into laughter. It was the first time she had seen someone shamelessly continue to lie like

this.

“Elijah, it’s clear that you like that person! How could you bear to bring that person harm? Aren’t you

disgusted by your own act?”

Elijah was utterly confused.

How could he possibly like Colin?

“I only like women! Moreover, I only like you! Everything I did during this time was sincere. Can’t you

see that?”

Even though Elijah was on his knees, looking up at Sheena when he shouted, his momentum was

fierce, showing no signs of surrender.

Sheena was somewhat impressed by his skill in playing dumb, but she did not have the patience to

listen to Elijah further, so she stood up and walked to the window.

The rain outside was still pouring heavily, creating a loud sound as it hit the eaves and the stone slabs,

as noisy as the voice of a certain man in the room.

She narrowed her eyes, unable to suppress her anger any longer. “The rain tonight is magnificent.

Since you insist on not speaking, kneel in the garden and enjoy the rain. Rise only when you’re ready

to tell the truth.”

“What?” Elijah was dumbfounded.

If he knelt in the garden, all the bodyguards would see him!

Was she trampling on his dignity, for Colin’s sake?

Sheena numbly watched the raindrops creating lines on the window. “Do you remember when Faye

wrongly accused me of stealing jewelry? Although Erin repaid the debt, she knelt for less than half an

hour. The duration is too short, so kneel and compensate for that time.”

Elijah had always felt remorse about this matter.

“Fine,” he said, supporting his knees and standing up. “But I kneel because I owe you, the Freeman

family owes you. I do it for you, not because I think I did something wrong. Even if it happens again, I

will still send that person away.”

This statement ignited Sheena’s anger to the extreme. She exploded, “Get out and kneel!”

Elijah straightened his back and walked out.

Sheena stood by the window, watching.

As Elijah reached the spot in the garden beneath her window, he knelt on the stone slabs without

hesitation. Despite the rain and the cold wind, he showed no signs of submission.

The heavy rain, accompanied by a chill, soaked him entirely. Each raindrop felt like a painful lash

whenever it hit his shoulders and head. He struggled to lift his head, looking toward the third–floor

window. His long lashes were coated with droplets, turning his vision slightly blurry.

Sheena’s room was lit, and she stood by the window. Due to the backlighting, Elijah could not see her

face, but he keenly felt her gaze on him. However, her gaze was as cold as the impending winter rain

With the punishment accepted, could they turn the page on this matter?

Could they return to the harmonious days before last night?

Elijah knelt there, bored, his mind wandering. The pain in his knees became piercing, and his legs

started feeling numb. Soon, he started to slouch slightly, unable to straighten his back as before.

The uneven stone slabs felt like thousands of needles stabbing into his knees.

Suddenly, he remembered that Sheena had knelt like this in the Freeman family. Did she feel the same

sense of helplessness and injustice back then?
