Chapter 513
Lionel stopped mid–sentence as he noticed Elliot’s brows almost instantly furrowing, a deep sadness in
his dark eyes.
“I placed a gag order on the virus inside me before. Remember, not a single word can be uttered to her!
”
“Yes.” Lionel was concerned. “But even if you can keep it from her now, five months later, she’ll have to
face the news of your death suddenly. It’ll be devastating for her.”
“I know. Let me think about it.”
Elliot lowered his gaze, looking sad. His eyelashes trembled slightly as if masking something.
Lionel understood that this was the moment when Elliot was most conflicted and distressed.
Since it was already deep into the night, Lionel exited the room, allowing Elliot to rest in the ward.
In the silence of the night, the trees outside rustled in the wind, and soon, a light rain began to fall.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtElliot turned his head, staring blankly at the raindrops on the window as he was lost in his thoughts. His
once mysterious and proud face now appeared gloomy and pale.
Suddenly, a message notification sounded on his phone. Unlocking it, he saw it was from Sheena.
[Sheena: Eli, are you sleeping well at the border? I heard the UV rays there are intense. Will you come
back with sunburn? You’ll be as red as a lobster, then! I’ll call you Lobster Eli!]
This message made him laugh, and he imagined the scene where she smiled charmingly as she made
fun of his sunburnt skin.
He longed to hold her, never to let go in this lifetime.
Another message from Sheena popped up on the phone screen.
[Sheena: Are you already asleep? Is it inconvenient to reply there?]
[Sheena: No, maybe there’s no signal? I won’t disturb you, good night!]
After this message, Sheena’s chat box did not appear again.
His slender fingers gently stroked the words Sheena had just sent on the phone screen, and an
uncontrollable tear rolled down his cheek, silently streaming into the short hair at his temple,
disappearing without a trace.
In the center of his chest, a sudden wrenching pain erupted. The pain was so severe that every limb
uncontrollably trembled.
Elliot curled up in bed, sweat beads forming on his nose as he gripped his chest tightly, veins bulging.
Each breath sent shudders of pain through his entire body.

2/2
The excruciating, tearing pain continued relentlessly, growing more intense with each passing
moment.
In agony, Elliot could not help but moan, and his trembling hands tried to reach for the alarm on the
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmbedside table. However, due to his weakened state, he tumbled off the bed with a thud.
The noise alerted Yosef in the next room. Rushing in, he pushed the door open and was nearly scared
out of his wits.
“Oh my God! I’ve told you to control your emotions and avoid excitement and sadness. Heart spasms
can be deadly when they strike!” Yosef muttered while swiftly finding some pills and placing them in
Elliot’s mouth.
The medication would take time to take effect fully, so Yosef helped Elliot back onto the bed, covering
him with a blanket. He kept watch for several hours until Elliot, exhausted, finally fell asleep, allowing
Yosef to breathe a sigh of relief.
That night, Sheena also struggled to sleep.
Staring at the ceiling light, she suddenly remembered the last time Elliot went on a mission, narrowly
escaping a bullet to the heart and losing a lot of blood.
This time, he was headed to the border, rumored to be chaotic and populated by formidable and brutal
people.
However, Elliot had not replied to her messages. Hence, she could not help but worry if he got hurt or
was safe and if the mission had already been settled…
