âIf you really kneel for a day and night, your legs might not be able to move tomorrow or the day after.
Sheenaâs tone softened considerably.
Elliot clenched his fists and replied with a mix of grievance and jealousy, âIf my legs end up useless, so be it. Itâs not like anyone cares if Iâm hurt or in pain.â
Sheena was left speechless, admitting defeat this time around.
âDonât talk nonsense. If youâre hurt or in pain, Iâll feel bad too.â
She hugged him gently once more, wiping the faint sweat from his forehead, using a soft and
affectionate tone.
âI was wrong! Iâll tell Caesar tomorrow that I wonât have dinner with him alone, and if I must, Iâll bring you along. Is that okay?â
Elliot had calmed down a bit, expressing his discontent with a few sullen hums.
âIâll reluctantly forgive you, but there canât be a next time.â
Sheena assured, âSure! I promise there wonât be a next time. Now, get up.â
She helped him up, guided him to sit on the bed, and rolled up his pants, checking his knees.
The sharp edges of the washboard had left deep marks. Thankfully, he did not kneel too long, and his knees were just swollen without any bruising.
Sheena massaged Elliotâs knees carefully. To avoid bruises the next day, she took an anti- inflammatory ointment from the bedside drawer and applied it to his knees.
âLook at this! Why do you have to hurt yourself?â Then, she sighed, asking, âIs it painful?â
âMy heart hurts more!â
Elliot stared at her with pentâup frustration, his grievances evident on his handsome face.
Sheena immediately kissed his thin lips, her entire heart melting at his pitiful appearance, and she coddled him, âHow about I make it up to you tonight?â
Elliot, catching on instantly, did not say anything.
What a little temptress!
An enjoyable hour later, Elliot, having shed all his hostility, emerged refreshed under Sheenaâs comfort. Satisfied, he walked out of the bedroom, heading downstairs to the kitchen to prepare
dinner.
After a heated argument, Sheenaâs timely reassurance prevented their relationship from being

significantly affected. Elliot, who received a small compensation, felt quite content.

During dinner, Sheena recalled the incident at the kickoff ceremony earlier in the day and said, âKatie mentioned that someone visited her in prison, and the appearance of that person seemed unexpected to her. If you have time, ask someone to check Katieâs recent visitation records.â
Elliotâs expression immediately turned serious.
âIâve already checked. Thereâs nothing on her visitation record.â
Sheena was stunned.
âHowâs that possible? Is Katie lying?â
He shook his head.
âShe probably isnât lying. Officers with high ranks have the privilege of secret visits, which are not documented. However, due to this secrecy, the investigation scope is narrowed down. Currently, there are only five people in the country with such privileges.â
Sheena listened attentively, contemplating the information.
Elliot quickly served a spoonful of food onto her plate.
âEat first. Iâll explain everything slowly.â
âOkay.â
âThese five individuals are Romello, Corey, Darrell, Stuart, and me. Stuart hasnât returned to Svelton for almost half a year, consistently working on the border, so heâs mostly ruled out.
âAs for Corey and me, we wouldnât do something to harm you. Thatâs why Iâve directed the investigation to focus on Romello and Darrell. I believe weâll have results soon.â
Sheena raised an eyebrow, analyzing the situation.
âIâm not acquainted with Darrell. Weâve never interacted, so I think the likelihood is low for him. As for Romello⦠What do you
think?â
