NovelEnglishChapter 1028 Elliot, we're adults, and even we feel miserable when we have a fever. Imagine how uncomfortable it is for the little ones. Your kids are suffering because of your reckless mistakes. Don’t you feel guilty about it?” Elliot could not argue with her, knowing he was at fault for the babies getting sick.
Moreover, seeing Sheena sad because of his mistake broke his heart too.
“I'm sorry, | didn’t think things through properly. | accept your punishment,” Elliot said, resigned.
Then, he walked over to the nearby desk, bending with his elbows resting on the table.
Sheena swung the iron hanger with force.
A dull sound echoed as it struck his buttocks and thighs.

Sheena struck the sspot two more times, causing Elliot to groan in pain.
The skin in the area was the most sensitive, and the continuous blows were unbearable.
It was truly painful.
Elliot's body trembled slightly, and he turned his head pitifully.
“It hurts... Honey, are you really trying to break my legs?” Sheena’s hand stopped mid-swing, staring at him in silence.
She did not deny it, but she did not confirm it either.
Clearly, she could not bear seeing him hurt too.
Taking advantage of this, Elliot pleaded, “Honey, my legs are very important. How about keeping them intact so | can make amends for my mistake?” Sheena glared at him sternly and scolded, “Stop being cheeky. How many times did | wam you on the plane? If you had listened to me, Asher and Adora wouldn't be sick.” Elliot remained silent.
Sheena continued, “The babies are suffering from a fever, and it’s hurtingtoo. Yet, you seemed to be unaffected. Is that how a dad is supposed to act?” Elliot's face turned pale, defending himself, “It’s hurtingtoo. I’m not only worrying for the babies, but I'm worrying for you too.” You caused this mess, so you should bear the consequences. What's a little bit of punishment to make you reflect on your actions?” Elliot remained silent, realizing there was no escaping Sheena’s logic.
“Fine, it’s my fault, so | accept the punishment,” Elliot muttered, bracing himself for the impending pain.
Sheena tightened her grip on the hanger but hesitated to continue the punishment.
She could not bring herself to really break Elliot's leg, and causing him to bleed would be too much too.
Caught in a dilemma, she struggled with her decision.

As Sheena wrestled with her thoughts, her phone suddenly rang.
It was a video call from Nathaniel.
Thinking it was an urgent update about the babies, Sheena immediately dropped the hanger and grabbed the phone from the bed, swiftly answering the call.
Elliot sighed in relief, quietly rubbing his injury, and followed Sheena to the bedside.
As the video connected, Nathaniel’s handsface appeared on the screen. He was dressed in loose pajamas, revealing a glimpse of his delicate collarbones.
Elliot furrowed his brows, feeling the anger rise within him.
Unconcerned with Elliot's reaction, Sheena focused on the video call, asking Nathaniel,” How are the babies?” Nathaniel adjusted the caméra to show Adora nestled in his lap, her cheeks flushed from the fever.
The pediatrician from the Jenkins family medical team had arrived and was preparing for the injection. However, Adora seemed to anticipate the injection, her face creased with worry, tears glistening in her eyes.
Seeing her pitiful state, Sheena’s eyes welled up with tears.
