Wait, She’s a Billionaire ( Sheena Lawson )
Chapter 456
Sheena immediately rushed to support Elliot. Seeing him coughing up blood and realizing how severe Coreyâs blow had been, tears welled up in her eyes, filled with distress.
âCorey! He was shot yesterday and had serious surgery. How could you hit him like this?â
Corey glanced at his own hand and then at Elliot, who was in excruciating pain, sweating profusely. It was evident that Elliot was not faking it, making Corey feel a bit guilty.
âI thought he would fight backâ¦â
He knew Elliot was skilled and expected a counterâattack. However, much to his surprise, Elliot did not evade the blow.
Once the pain subsided, Elliot protected Sheena in his arms and spoke with great effort, âMr. Corey, I am Nanaâs fiance. Iâve endured this punishment for her. Is this blow enough, or do you want to break my legs too?â
âNo! Eliâ¦â Tears streamed down her face as she looked at him with heartache.
He managed a wry smile and gently wiped away her tears. It hurt badly, and he was struggling to hold on.
âNana, hug meâ¦â
Sheena embraced him, and he curled into her arms, his back bowed against her slender shoulder.
Corey, still in shock, observed the affectionate scene. However, Sheena was crying, and he hesitated to speak.
Barbara sighed softly, stepping forward. âThatâs enough. In this day and age, engaged or not, does it really matter whether they slept together or not? Elliot is willing to suffer for her. Thatâs quite rare. Donât stir up trouble for them.â
Corey gave a questioning look to Barbara.
Why was she not taking his side? It seemed like he became the only villain here.
He glanced back at Sheena and Elliotâone crying bitterly, the other in even worse shape. It felt like a tragic play of the villain interfering with a coupleâs happiness, and he was the antagonist.
Corey let out a long sigh. âIâll let it slide this time. Since heâs injured, both of you better behave for a while, got it?â
âUnderstood,â Sheena replied, her small face showing signs of grievance.
Corey softened his tone. âTake him home to check if the wound has reopened, but no staying over. You must go back home. Do you understand?â
Sheenaâs mood lifted, and she wiped away a few tears. âThank you, Corey.â
With a grunt of acknowledgment, Corey turned away and left. Barbara hurriedly approached Sheena, whispering, âCorey might sound harsh, but heâs softest when it comes to you. Donât be mad at him, okay?â
âLetâs go!â Coreyâs displeased voice sounded.
âIâm coming!â Barbara consoled Sheena, casting an approving glance at Elliot, and then quickly ran back to Coreyâs side.
Once their cars were completely gone, Sheena immediately checked on Elliot. âIs it very painful? Can you still walk? Should I ask Lionel to carry you to the car?â
Lionel nodded, already feeling anxious.
Yosef had just warned against further injuries, and now Elliot had been hit again. Approaching, he got his shoulder ready for Elliot.
Ignoring Lionel, Elliot looked mischievously at Sheena and said, âWhen Corey struck just now, I quietly stepped back half an inch. Iâm not seriously hurt. I played it up. Donât worry.â
âReally? Donât lie to me.â
âIf I lie to you, Iâm a puppy.â
Sheena giggled. âThen youâll be named Elipup!â
