Sheena shook her head, feeling helpless. Indeed, their timing was off from the beginning. Hot tears slid down her cheeks, smudging the words in the letter. Wiping them away, her gaze landed on the phrase ‘ensure you never forgetfor the rest of yours‘.
“Elijah! You’re such a jerk!”
He succeeded.
In this lifetime, she could never forget him.
This fool…
Sheena had mentioned that saving him 13 years ago was merely something she did not care about. Yet, he remembered it for a lifetime. Due to this debt, Elijah had jumped off the Clear Crane Bridge despite his weakened state from the modified drug, and at Eros Bar, he shielded her from a corrosive substance.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtThis time, Elijah sacrificed himself to eliminate the man in black, all for her sake. He saved her tand tagain.
He no longer owed her; it was she who owed him.
Now that he was gone, how could she repay the debt she owed him for the rest of her life?
Sheena sobbed quietly, and the last shred of reasoning was destroyed by the letter.
Her heart ached so, so much!
The pain overwhelmed her, causing uncontrollable shivers throughout her body. Finally, Sheena could not hold on any longer, collapsing weakly to the ground. The floor was cold, but she seemed oblivious to it, her senses lost except for the heartache that seemed to numb everything.
Through teary eyes, Sheena noticed something red under the bed.
It was glaring, and she wondered what he was hiding underneath the bed.
Sheena wiped away her tears, took a deep breath, and approached the edge of the bed. She pulled out what was hidden underneath.
It was a bloodstained shirt.
On closer inspection, Sheena noticed a strong scent of rust on the fabric. Though the blood had dried, the color still seemed fresh. It must have been recent…
When did this happen?

The large bloodstains on the shirt pained her eyes, and she knew that this was more than just an injury from the burn on his back.
How could he be hurt so severely?
Sheena carefully recounted recent events. The only tElijah admitted to being injured was when she brought Gabrielle back to Ocean Avenue, and he casually brushed off the incident.

She summoned John and ordered, “Contact Lionel, tell him I need to see him! Right now, immediately! Go!”
Startled by her shout, John almost tripped over himself as he rushed out to find Lionel.
Half an hour later, Lionel hurried over.
When he entered, Sheena sat on Elijah’s recliner, her eyes vacant, lost in thought. She tightly clutched Elijah’s bloodied shirt. Tear streaks were dried on her face, but her swollen, weary eyes could not hide the pain.
Lionel kept his head low, his mood subdued. “Ms. Sheena, what’s the matter?”
Sheena looked at the bloodstained shirt in her hands, suppressing a sob as she asked, “The day you all went to the abandoned construction site, did you truly encounter people from the Special Investigation Department? Did he get seriously injured?”
Lionel stayed silent.
“At this point, just tellthe truth. Your honesty won’t change the outcome. I just want to know.”
Lionel sighed deeply before speaking, “We didn’t encounter anyone from the Special Investigation Department. He lied because he didn’t want you to worry, but he did get severely injured.”
Sheena frowned. “Then why was he injured?“
