“Huh? Ms. Sheena, isn’t that your order?!”
Confused by her anger, Owen trembled, accidentally pouring the remaining water on Elijah all at once.
The massive shock caused Elijah to cough violently, the sound echoing in the basement as if his lungs were about to be expelled. Sheena, infuriated by Owen’s clumsy actions, was about to check on Elijah when a woman’s scream suddenly rang out behind her.
“Ah! Elijah! My dear Elijah!”
Hearing that voice, Sheena’s tightly clenched hand relaxed. She composed herself, resuming her usual cold and proud demeanor.

Seeing her son tortured to the brink of death in the basement, Faye forgot about her feigned limp and rushed in. She collapsed beside Elijah, feeling his body devoid of warmth, shaking uncontrollably.
Panicking, Faye cried out, “Where’s the doctor? Quickly, find a doctor! Elijah is dying! He can’t die, he mustn’t die!”
Faye had maintained her pride for most of her life, but for the first time, she was openly crying and disregarding her image in front of Sheena. “Sheena, I beg you! Save him! He hasn’t done anything
wrong. Why are you treating him like this? You were once husband and wife! Why must you treat him so ruthlessly?”
Sheena sneered. “As you said, Elijah and I were once husband and wife, but not anymore. In all these years in the Freeman family, I’ve never felt like a part of the family. Have you forgotten how you’ve treated me? You even said I’m worse than your pet dog. Now, seeing your most beloved son tormented by the woman you despise the most, how does that make you feel?”
Faye was stunned, but she quickly burst into tears.
“Sheena, please! My heart is suffocating with guilt. It’s my fault. I was mean to you, but Elijah is innocent. Please, Sheena, save him!”
Sheena sighed, expressing her helplessness, “I can’t save him. Only you can save him.”
Faye stopped crying, bewildered. “What do you mean?”
“Elijah is in this situation because he used something you gave him and put it in my coffee. And you…”
Before she could finish, Faye panicked and shouted, “No, that’s not true! It has nothing to do with him! When I proposed it to him, he rejected me. I secretly gave it to him when he wasn’t paying attention! He really doesn’t know!”

“Oh? Is that so?” Sheena said as she stood up. Then, she approached Faye, looked down at her, and asked, “If that’s the case, who gave you the medicine? Who helped you cup with the plan to fake your injury?”
Faye froze, unable to answer.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmSheena chuckled, “With your intelligence, the best you could think of is for Elijah to impregnate me. The one who prompted you to create all this chaos is probably sitting back and enjoying the show. You’ve been manipulated without even realizing it. How foolish.”
It was the first tFaye was criticized this way, but she could not deny that Sheena was right.
“Yes, I was really used! It’s that cunning Wilfred. He said if he could get Elijah and you back together, the Freeman family could return to what it used to be. I shouldn’t have believed his nonsense!”
Wilfred?
Just as she had expected of that cunning old man.
Nonetheless, Sheena could not believe how Wilfred would resort to such despicable methods even at
his age.
Faye hugged Elijah and continued crying, “Oh, Sheena, he’s getting colder and colder. Please, save him! He’s my everything!”
