However, Sheena had already told them everything. She had no other choice than to persuade them
otherwise!
She bit her lip, tears uncontrollably streaming down her cheeks as she choked out, “Is my life more important? Is Elliot’s life not worth saving? He’s in this state because of me. If it weren’t for him, I’d be the one lying in that hospital bed now. How can you be so heartless toward him?”
The three men fell into silence.
Howard, aware of the events in Farlem and having interacted with Elliot during Katie’s birthday party, where he found the young man likable and sincere, felt guilty. He stood up, wanting to help
Sheena up.

Sheena rejected his assistance.
Corey and Noah had plenty of time, but Elliot’s twas running out. She remained resolute, taking two steps on her knees toward Corey.
“Elliot lost his parents at a young age, raised under the strict Santiago Jenkins. He grew up in loneliness, unlike me, adored by you and our parents, surrounded by a loving family.”
“So, he values the love people give him immensely. He always gives his heart and soul, afraid I might reject him.”
“He realized he didn’t have much tleft and never intended to burdenwith his gratitude. Instead, he planned to find a place to die quietly, fearing my sadness. If I hadn’t discovered his condition, I’d probably still be in the dark.”
“I’ll never meet a man who lovesas wholeheartedly as he does. If he dies, my heart dies with him. Taking care of him now and accepting him is the true show of affection you have for me, your sister!”
“Please trust me. I’m not a child anymore. I’ll protect myself, bring back the Clear, and return safely. Consider it my journey of growth. I won’t let anything happen to me.”
Noah and Howard sighed, their resolve wavering.
They looked at Corey, who kept his gaze lowered.
His expression was complex, hesitating to give a response.
“Corey, I’m begging you!” Sheena’s tone intensified.
Her tear–stained face showed an undeniable mix of sadness and determination.
Seeing Corey still hesitating, she bent down, about to prostrate herself.
Corey quickly moved forward to stop her.

His little sister, whom he had cherished for decades, was crying in front of him, pleading, kneeling, and even about to prostrate herself. It was impossible not to be moved.
Corey compromised, “I promise you. Do what you need to do. We’ll have your back, so you don’t have to worry. But remember, if you can’t get your hands on Clear, you must return. Your safety is of utmost importance. No toughing it out and absolutely no extrmeasures!”
“Corey…” Sheena hugged him, crying freely in his embrace, displaying her vulnerable side without
reservation.
Her cry was heart–wrenching, bringing tears to the eyes of her brothers as well.
After a good cry, Sheena quickly regained her composure and calmly assigned tasks to her brothers.
Howard went to the ward to learn how to care for Elliot.
Noah found Yosef, examined Elliot’s medical records, and figured out a plan to treat his eyes.
Corey arranged his men and discreetly placed protective surveillance around E&S Haven.
Drying her tears, Sheena touched up her makeup and went to find Lionel in the reception area.
Despite her still exquisite appearance, Lionel noticed her unmistakable red eyes, a clear sign that she had been crying.
