NovelEnglishChapter 1056 “So thoughtful?” Sheena eyed him skeptically, studying his handsface. “Honey, you have a high libido, and you'd never say no to sex. That's quite unlike you.” Elliot pecked her ruby lips and said, “Nothing matters more than your health, Nana.” She pressed closer to his ear, her voice velvety soft as she whispered, “But I'm almost recovered, and the concussion won't affect us in bed. It’s going to be our first tbeing intimate since we returned from abroad.
Are you sure you don’t want it?” Sheena’s warm breath tickled his sensitive earlobe, causing Elliot to shiver slightly.
His Adam’s apple bobbed, but he remained composed.
Mischievously, Sheena tugged at his expensive tie, teasing, “We're having a candlelit dinner tonight. Are you sure you want to waste such a romantic setting?” Elliot nodded. “Honey, please stop teasing me. You know | have zero resistance against you.” Sheena relented and withdrew her hand, tucking his tie back into his suit collar.
She obediently settled into his embrace as he carried her into the house.
Elliot sat her on the couch and served a tray of fruits and snacks in front of her.

Why would he not let her leave the couch? She felt uneasy.
Thinking of the babies on the fourth floor, Sheena went upstairs to check on them, while Elliot prepared the dishes.
1050 Opening the nursery door, she found the baby cribs empty.
Neither the babies nor Freida were there.
Sheena stared at the empty room in shock, and a sudden panic overwhelmed her.
She quickly ran downstairs to the kitchen and shouted, “Honey, Asher and Adora are missing! Something must have happened!” Elliot stopped cooking and sighed silently, not expecting her to notice so soon.
Sheena was as sharp as ever.
Facing her impending loss of control, he steadied her shoulders with his palms, explaining calmly, “The babies are fine. They're not missing. Don’t be afraid.” “You knew? Did you hide the babies?” Her chest heaved as she stared at him in disbelief. “Elliot, did you send the babies away so we could have salone time? What are you trying to do?” Elliot reassured her repeatedly, gently stroking her back to soothe her restless emotions.
“Grandpa really misses Asher and Adora. He's getting older and has trouble moving around. The Jenkins estate is too big, and it’s inconvenient for him to walk all the way from his mansion to E&S Haven. So, | sent Asher and Adora, along with Auntie Freida, to stay with Grandpa for a few days. Nana, rest assured, I've arranged for extra guards to protect Grandpa's mansion. Asher and Adora will be safe. Don’t worry.” With his explanation, Sheena’s rationality gradually returned.
After all, it was natural for the elderly to miss their grandchildren, and Sheena could not possibly demand the babies back, especially since it was not a big deal to begin with.
Even so, she still could not shake off the feeling that something was off.
“Was it really because Grandpa missed Asher and Adora that you sent them and Auntie Freida over?” Elliot kissed her forehead. “Yes. We'll bring them back in a few days, Nana. Don’t worry.” With that, Sheena did not press further.
“Alright. Let's get cooking. I'm starving.” Together, they busied themselves in the kitchen, finishing up the last few dishes and setting the table.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmThe candlelit dinner was delightful and relaxed.
After dinner, they cuddled on the couch, watching a movie together.
Elliot discreetly observed Sheena’s condition from tto time, relieved to see no signs of outbursts.
According to Yosef, it was likely just fatigue that triggered her episodes. With better care and ensuring Sheena did not overexert herself, they could hopefully reduce the frequency of her episodes.
Halfway through the movie, Sheena fell asleep on his shoulder.
Having stayed up late the previous night and rising early in the morning, Elliot was feeling tired himself.
He turned off the TV and carried Sheena to the bedroom, patiently helping her wash her face and feet, and change into pajamas.
Sheena had been sleeping deeply lately, completely unaffected by his attempts to wake her.
Half an hour later, he finally slipped into bed beside her, holding her close as they drifted off to sleep.
Much to his surprise...
Slap! As he drifted in and out of consciousness, the sharp pain of a slap jolted him awake.
