Chapter 241
At the same time, Elijah lay on the hospital bed, engrossed in watching the live broadcast on the
television, smiling.
After such a long time, she finally decided to reveal one of her hidden identities. Moreover, her act was
meant to tell everyone that even Howard and Skye were willingly playing supporting roles for her.
Regardless of whether it was Bethany or Wilfred, they were probably feeling anxious, desperately
digging into her true identity.
Elijah’s lips curled into a satisfied smile as he watched the stunning beauty speaking on television.
Even if she never considered remarrying him, these calm and peaceful days were quite enjoyable.
Owen sat in a chair beside Elijah, supporting his head with his hands, elbows resting on his knees, also
engrossed in admiring Sheena’s unparalleled beauty. He commented, “Ms. Sheena looks so gorgeous
when she’s serious!”
However, thinking about being forced to suspend his job, Owen became sad again. “But Ms. Sheena is
really scary when she gets angry! It’d be great if she could always be this gentle.”
Originally enjoying the broadcast, Elijah felt annoyed by Owen’s chatter. He grabbed the remote control

Owen, who was just daydreaming a second ago, suddenly found the screen blacked out and asked,
Mr. Freeman, what are you doing?”
Elijah remained silent, ignoring him. His expression was somewhat cold, enhanced by the illness and
the effects of the modified drug, giving his skin a slightly unhealthy paleness and an overall eerie
aura.
Observing Elijah’s demeanor, Owen could not help but wonder, “Mr. Freeman, are you… jealous
because I praised Ms. Sheena?”
Elijah responded coldly, “It’s boring, so I don’t want to watch.”
Owen realized he was making excuses and kindly advised, “Mr. Freeman, since you divorced Ms.
Sheena and are now working as her servant, you both can never ever get back together again. Just
give
up.”
Elijah’s expression instantly darkened.
Owen densely pushed his luck, continuing, “Besides, Ms. Sheena and Mr. Upton have known each
other since they were young. In terms of personality, family background, age, and appearance, they’re
a perfect match. So, why not obediently get through this one–year agreement and focus on being your
own person in the future?”
“Colin?” Elijah gritted his teeth as he uttered the name.
He had met Colin only twice, and despite their banter, Elijah sensed that Colin was a compassionate

and loving man, generous in giving his love. With Sheena’s personality to always get back at those who
hurt her, Elijah feared that Colin might find himself in deep trouble and inadvertently hurt Sheena’s
feelings.
How could he entrust Sheena to such a man?
“Mr. Freeman?” Owen called out as Elijah seemed lost in thought.
Elijah immediately threw off the blanket, swung his legs out of bed, and unplugged the needle from the
IV bag.
“What are you doing?” Owen asked, standing up.

the hospital.”
“What? You’ve only been here for a few days! Leaving the hospital requires the doctor’s examination
for a discharge approval!”
Owen hurriedly followed, but Elijah suddenly stopped at the doorway.
As Owen approached, Elijah extended his hand and said, “Give me your phone.”
The talent show was a tremendous success, with Sheena’s revelation of her status causing Angle
Group’s stock to soar and garnering a wave of positive reviews. While discussing post–show plans with
Phoebe backstage in the evening, Sheena’s phone suddenly rang.
She glanced down and saw it was Owen calling.
What kind of stunt had Elijah pulled this time?
Her great mood was ruined in an instant.
