Seeing his demeanor, Sheena seemed to understand something and motioned for Lionel and Yosef to
leave.
“I need to talk to Eli alone. Close the door when you leave, but don’t go too far,” Sheena instructed.
Lionel and Yosef left.
Once the room was completely quiet, Sheena asked, you everything?”

“Ms. Sheena, that was quick! Did you manage to convince Mr. Jenkins already?”
Sheena did not respond. Instead, she pointed at Elliot.
“Hold him down. Don’t let him move.”
“Nana!” Elliot called out again, his expression growing colder.
