Wait, She’s a Billionaire (Sheena Lawson)

Chapter 260

As Elijah walked out, he noticed her walking in completely soaked. Then, he quickly went to the

bathroom, grabbed a clean towel, and began to help her dry off.

“Did you forget to bring an umbrella? How did you end up coming back in the rain? The weather has

been getting colder lately. Don’t catch a cold. I’ll make you some soup later, okay?”

Sheena remained silent, observing him closely.

She watched him express concern with no signs of embarrassment or hesitation. Moreover, the

affection and love in his eyes were unmistakable.

Using affection as a guise to lower her guard, all to save Jennifer.

What a cunning strategy! What a convincing act!

Elijah noticed that the atmosphere around her was becoming increasingly tense, and he asked, ‘

Sheena, what’s wrong?”

Sheena smiled, her gaze, however, exuded a coldness.

“The fallen leaves in the garden are too many. Go clean them up.”

Elijah looked outside. “But it’s raining heavily…”

“Clean them up, and then come inside.” Sheena ignored his words and went upstairs.

Elijah felt that her mood tonight was off.

Was something bothering her, and she wanted to take it out on him?

Helpless, he chuckled and went to the backyard to grab a broom, starting to sweep away the fallen

leaves. Within five minutes of rushing into the rain, he was completely drenched.

With winter approaching, the leaves fell aggressively, especially in heavy rain, making it impossible

to clean them all.

Sheena stood on the third–floor balcony, watching numbly.

If Elijah truly loved Jennifer, he could have rescued her from prison from the beginning. They could NôvelDrama.Org copyrighted © content.

have been direct enemies, clashing openly, and she could have accepted his indifference or even

hatred toward her. However, he should not deceive her under the guise of repaying a debt while

claiming to love her.

It was utterly shameless!

Sheena clenched her fists tightly, a burning anger roaring within her. She called Ford into the room, and

they stood together on the balcony, watching Elijah sweep the fallen leaves in the garden,

Without waiting for Sheena to speak, Ford expressed concern, “Ms. Lawson, Mr. Freeman injured his

back yesterday, and this rain is too cold. His body might not endure it for long.”

Sheena stared intensely at Elijah and sneered. “Does he look like someone with a back injury?”

“Miss, what do you mean?”

Sheena did not answer, continuing to ask, “When he got injured yesterday, did you see his wound?”

Ford thought for a moment and admitted, “No, Mr. Freeman called me into the room. When I entered,

his wound was already halfway bandaged. It was bleeding, but it shouldn’t… be fake, right?”

Could it be fake?

“Let him stand in the rain for another hour. If he still can’t clean everything up, let him come in.”

“Yes, Miss.”

The rain was heavy, blurring one’s vision.

Although Elijah kept his head down, he could sense a constant gaze on him, which lasted a while.

It must be Sheena.

However, she was colder than ever before.

Could it be that she found out about him arranging Colin’s disappearance?

Lost in thought, Elijah unknowingly continued to sweep the fallen leaves outside for a full hour.

It was not until Ford came out, telling him to go to Sheena’s room, that he snapped back to reality and

returned the broom to the backyard. Before entering the house, he hesitated.

Elijah’s clothes were too wet, and he was dripping water everywhere. He did not want to dirty the floor

that had just been cleaned, especially Sheena’s room. So, he chose to stand at the doorway, wringing

out the water from his clothes and pants before entering. He also used the same towel that had just

wiped Sheena’s clothes to dry his hair hastily.

Elijah appeared as if he had just taken a shower, his short hair neat and clean, the white shirt clinging

to his body, revealing well–defined abdominal muscles. However, due to the rain, his lips were slightly

pale, making him look sickly and fragile.

Ford stood silently on the side, observing Elijah as he meticulously arranged every detail of his

appearance.

Ford could not help but sigh quietly.

Elijah had no idea what awaited him shortly.
