Elijah had sent Lance back to the base to find Professor Y, but he still had not returned.
Nonetheless, Elijah was well aware of his deteriorating condition and doubted that he could hold on until Sheena returned from dinner.
Would he really die like this? He felt a profound reluctance, yet he was utterly powerless. Even writing a farewell letter seemed beyond his strength now.
The hug just now was the first tsince their divorce.
No, that was not it. She had merely patted his head. Nathaniel was right. She ultimately treated him like a pet. She had stopped loving him.
As these thoughts crossed his mind, his consciousness began to fade, and his vision uncontrollably dimmed.

He had given her his life, could she love him again?
Elijah resigned himself to fate, closing his eyes, hands limp, looking tranquil. The
surroundings were silent, except for the rustling sound of the wind moving the curtains and the rhythmic drops of blood from his fingertips.
In the car, Sheena suddenly experienced a sharp, intense pain in her chest. She clutched her heart, her face turning pale.
Nathaniel noticed her discomfort and urgently inquired, “Nana, what’s wrong? Where does it hurt?”
He leaned in, attempting to assist her.
Sheena waved him off, took a few deep breaths, and the pain gradually subsided. Yet, she could not fathom why it happened. After all, she had never had heart issues before.
The pain seemed inexplicable.
“I’m fine. Maybe I haven’t been sleeping well these past few days. In any case, it’ll all be over in a few more days.”
As she finished speaking, a fleeting coldness flickered in her eyes.
Nathaniel, oblivious to her expression, continued to offer comforting words. However, Sheena did not pay attention.
Suddenly, Elijah’s pale, sickly face before she left appeared in her mind.
Elijah was acting strange tonight, asking questions about life and death, wondering if she would remember him after his death. It was almost like someone on their deathbed refusing to accept fate.
The more Sheena delved into these thoughts, the stranger it all seemed, especially the moment before she left when he grabbed her wrist and uttered those final words.

Now, looking back, that statement felt off. He used the term ‘in the future‘ as if he had excluded himself from it.
Considering Elijah’s trembling hands, furrowed brows, an overall weakness that could not be concealed, and asking about if he died…
Sheena immediately shouted at Nathaniel’s driver, “Pull over!”
“What’s wrong, Nana?”
Sheena swiftly unbuckled her seatbelt and opened the car door. “I have something urgent to attend to tonight. I might have to skip this meal. We’ll eat together next time!”
“Nana…”
Nathaniel’s words were cut off by the abrupt slamming of the door.
As they were in a mansion area near the ocean and hills, where there would not be any taxis on the roadside, Sheena had to walk back.
Paul and Ian quickly followed her.
