Knowing his cold temperament, they assumed Elijah had plans in mind and eagerly handed over the

list. They thought once Elijah regained control of the Freeman Group, this group of employees might

even receive some shares.

Nelson and Eric were delighted, saying, “Mr. Freeman, take your time. If there’s anything we can do, just let us know.”

“Sure.”

After that, they sensibly closed the door and left.

Elijah was still looking at the list when a graceful figure in high heels suddenly opened the door quietly. He noticed her presence from the corner of his eye and looked up.

Sheena, wearing a white figure–hugging skirt, stood with her hands crossed against the door frame. She was smiling, but her eyes were icy.

From Elijah’s point of view, her well–proportioned figure was on full display.

“What brings you here?”

Sheena’s tone was indifferent. “This whole building is mine now. Can’t I come? Or is it that I came at the wrong time and happened to overhear something I shouldn’t have?”

“That’s not what I meant.” Elijah stood up, ushering her to the sofa and pouring her tea. After completing these actions, he handed her the list that had just been given to him by Nelson and Eric. ” Take a look at this.”

She glanced at it, looking somewhat surprised.

“These people can give you the confidence to take back the Freeman Group. Did you just sell them out?

Elijah pursed his lips, kneeling on one knee, looking up at her seriously.

“What are you doing?” Sheena was puzzled.

“I won’t let you lift your head to talk to me in the future because I’m the one who should look up to you,” Elijah spoke earnestly.

His handsome face was like a work of art, and due to the effects of the modified drug, he appeared a bit pale, adding a touch of vulnerability.

Sheena was stunned, not expecting such words to come from Elijah’s mouth. Soon, she commented, You’re really going all out to gain my trust, eh?”

“I know you don’t believe me now, but with time, you’ll understand that I haven’t deceived you.‘

Sheena sneered, gripping Elijah’s chin harshly. “Elijah, I hate lies the most. When you used to have a

sharp tongue and disliked me, at least it was genuine. If I catch you lying and find evidence against you, you’ll face the consequences accordingly!”

Elijah was at a loss for words.

Clearly, what he was saying now was the most genuine!

Sheena released his chin, shifting her gaze back to the list. “How should I deal with this group of employees who are loyal to you?” she asked.

Elijah sighed. “They’ve been with the Freeman Group for many years, so we can’t dismiss them all. Besides, humans are inherently greedy. If you provide the senior employees with good benefits for being loyal, they’ll support you just the same over time.”

Sheena asked, “So, you want me to turn a blind eye and pretend I didn’t see anything?”

“Yes. With this list, you can identify potential threats. You can reward them for their work and, at the same time, be watchful for any signs of disloyalty.”

Sheena pondered for a while, somewhat skeptical, as she asked, “So, you had Nelson and Eric write this list for me on purpose?”

“Yes, if you hadn’t come today, I would have personally handed the list to you when you returned to Ocean Avenue. But you happened to come and almost misunderstood me.”

As he spoke, the corner of his mouth gently drooped, looking aggrieved.

Ignoring his expression, Sheena asked, “Giving me this list probably isn’t for free, right? What do you want?”

Elijah met her gaze and admitted openly, “I want to request having an assistant.”

Sheena was surprised at the simple request. “Who?”

“Lionel O’Connor.”
