“Fine, where are you?”

Chapter 279

It was 10.30 p.m., and the charity gala at Garden Hotel had finally concluded.

Bethany walked toward the entrance, observing the man beside her with a sidelong glance. He

remained as aloof as ever, with an invincible air about him. She thought about his recent performance

of feigned vulnerability before Sheena and could not help but be curious.

“I thought you changed, but it turns out you’ve only changed in front of her. I’m really curious. Are you

just acting in front of her, or have you genuinely fallen for her?” Bethany inquired.

Elijah kept his back straight, exuding an air of aristocratic elegance and seemingly oblivious to her

words.

Unfazed by his ignoring her, Bethany continued walking and joined him in the car.

Lionel was sandwiched between them on the back seat, acting like a human partition since Elijah was

unwilling to share the seat directly with Bethany.

The car sped up, reaching the outskirts in just eight minutes. It was a desolate, yet finely crafted cabin

surrounded by wilderness. Along with Bethany’s bodyguards, the four of them entered the cabin.

Inside, only a kerosene lamp was lit, casting dim light throughout the space.

Elijah scanned the room and noticed the cleaned sheets, bedding, and traces of occupancy on the

tabletop and bedside. It seemed that Jennifer had been residing here since being taken out of prison.

With this realization, Elijah glanced at Bethany and sneered, “I didn’t expect the Carver family to have

the capability to extract someone from prison discreetly.”

Bethany chuckled, “Bit of course. She’s your beloved. Rescuing her is, in a way, helping you.”

“She’s not,” Elijah answered without hesitation.

Jennifer never was his beloved.

At that moment, Jennifer sat on the wooden bed, no longer displaying the wild, frenzied behavior from

the gala. Despite the injuries on her face, she appeared almost like a different

person.

Upon hearing Elijah’s immediate and almost vehement denial, Jennifer could not hold back. her tears.

“Eli, why? You used to love me so much. What did Sheena do to you? Have you forgotten the promises

you made to me? Have you forgotten the debt of gratitude from decades ago when I saved you?”

As soon as this matter was brought up, Elijah’s entire being exuded an unsettling hostility.

This so–called promise had caused him to overlook Sheena’s love for him over the years and even

wrongly accuse her, uttering words that insulted her.

The thought of the insults he had hurled at Sheena back then made Elijah wish he could slap himself

several times.

He lowered his head, covering the sudden surge of guilt in his eyes, paying no heed to Jennifer’s

words..

Lionel spoke on his behalf, “Ms. Moore, Mr. Freeman already knows you’re not the girl who saved hini

back then. Bringing up favors now seems rather foolish, don’t you think?”

Jennifer was stunned. Suddenly, she knelt weakly at Elijah’s feet.

“Eli, you’ve been deceived by her! It was really me who saved you back then. I was at the scene. of the

car accident, but I was young and scared. I didn’t rush up immediately. Another girl

pulled you out of the car and left, and I came forward to save you. It really was me!”

Her cries were earnest and mournful, her gaze incredibly sincere.

Elijah remained silent.

Bethany handed him a document. “Elijah, what she said is indeed true. I had my people investigate that

incident from years ago. If you don’t believe me, take a look.”

He took the document and carefully flipped through it.
