Chapter 514

Lost in her thoughts, Sheena slowly drifted off to sleep.

Due to the lack of a good night’s sleep, she went to the office the next day sporting a pair of tired eyes.

Little did she know that on that evening, the man she missed dearly had returned unexpectedly.

Carrying the hem of her dress, Sheena hurried upstairs and pushed open the bedroom door.

Elliot was sitting on the bed, engrossed in a book, his gaze focused. His fingers slowly flipped the

pages with noble elegance, creating an unmatched presence. Even in a half–leaning position at the

bedside, his incredibly handsome face still had the power to make people weak in the knees.

Hearing the commotion at the door, Elliot glanced sideways, his gaze tender as he looked at her.

With a gentle, low voice, he softly called, “Nana.”

Sheena smiled and sat on the bed, crossing her legs over him. With both hands, she lifted his

handsome face, observing him closely.

“Who would’ve thought that you would return from a trip to the border without sunburn? Your honey -

toned skin makes me want to take a bite!” Sheena playfully pecked his cool, thin lips, like a child who

had successfully schemed for candy.

“Eli, why didn’t you tell me you were coming back early? I probably wouldn’t have known you were

back if I hadn’t seen Lionel standing at the door. Were you trying to surprise me?”

Elliot wore a faint smile on his face, concealing the hint of weakness in his eyes. “Yes, a surprise.”



Although he made a concerted effort to hide it, Sheena sensed a tinge of melancholy in his emotions,

and his tone was quite somber.

“Eli, did the trip not go well? Why do I feel like you’re not very happy?”

Elliot pursed his lips and opened his arms to her.

Sheena sat on his left side, resting her head on his shoulder. Her cold little hand ventured into his deep

black robe, restlessly exploring his warm, firm waist.

Elliot shivered slightly from the cold but didn’t move, allowing her to play with his skin while wearing an

indulgent smile.

“I have a senior employee in the high ranks of the Jenkins Group. He has dedicated his entire life to

The Jenkins Group, and he and his wife are very much in love…”

His magnetic voice gently narrated, his expression serene.

Sheena noticed that he seemed to have a lot on his mind tonight, so she quietly embraced his waist,

lifting her little face to listen attentively.

“Recently, he was diagnosed with advanced–stage cancer, and he has only a few months left to live.

He’s afraid to tell his family and especially doesn’t want his wife to know. So, he asked me for advice,

but making a choice in such a life and death situation is truly difficult.

Listening to Elliot’s words, Sheena’s mood also took a downturn, feeling deeply moved.

“With such a strong bond between him and his wife, it would be devastating for her if she found out.

And facing the approaching separation from a loved one is the most painful for the one left behind.

Elliot’s back stiffened slightly, his long lashes trembling as he made a concerted effort to conceal his

“Yes, for the one left behind, it’s the most painful.”

Half a year ago, Sheena was heartbroken due to his supposed death.

Nothing is more agonizing than losing something you once had.

If she had to endure it again, she would surely crumble, right?

Unaware of Elliot’s subdued emotions, Sheena was lost in her thoughts about the incident from half a

year ago. Just thinking about it made her uneasy, and her eyes reddened.

She held Elliot’s waist even tighter and said, “Fortunately, I had a health checkup yesterday, and my

body is in good shape. So, you must take care of yourself. No more injuries during missions. Eli, we

have a long future ahead.”

Elliot’s Adam’s apple rolled lightly, and the hand under the blanket clenched tightly.

Although Sheena’s future was bright and hopeful, his own days were numbered.

His pale lips opened and closed several times before he gathered the courage to ask the question he

had been avoiding.

“Nana, do you… still love me?”



Lowering his head, he locked eyes with Sheena, nestled in his arms. Once, he had been terrified of this

question afraid of Sheena’s answer, fearing it would break his heart.

It might render all the sacrifices he had made worthless.

Yet, this time, he secretly hoped Sheena would say that she no longer loved him…
