Wait, She’s a Billionaire

Chapter 517

Elliot looked down, refusing to meet her gaze, emanating an aloof and melancholic aura that made him seem unapproachable.

Sheena could not understand him at all. All she could feel was the surge of fury inside her, with one clear thought dominating her mind to beat him until he would not dare mention anything about breaking up ever again!

Driven by anger, Sheena stepped down from the bed, heading toward the bedside table to fetch a wooden ruler from the first drawer. However, just as her hand reached for the drawer’s handle, she hesitated.

The ruler was too heavy. What if, in the heat of the moment, she failed to control herself and accidentally hurt Elliot, who did not even dodge her attacks?

However, approaching him empty–handed would make her seem foolish. She discreetly turned around to glance at Elliot across the bed. His intense gaze was fixed on her and going empty–handed seemed awkward.

Nearby, on the coat rack, hung Elliot’s dark leather belt. She went over, folded it in half, and held the metal buckle before sitting back on the bed.

“See this

1 in my

hand! Don’t makewhip you!” Her sweet voice carried a menacing tone, playfully threatening him.

Elliot glanced at the belt in her hand, still maintaining an aloof expression.

“I had let go back then, but you held on tight and asked for another chance. Now that I’m giving you a chance and want to be with you forever, you’re backing away instead? You need to givea reasonable explanation!

In the warm, muted light of the bedroom, Elliot’s handsface seemed almost surreal. His Adam’s apple bobbed slightly, his head bowed, eyes half–hidden beneath his long lashes, maintaining silence.

A silent resistance.

Was he giving her the silent treatment?

Sheena bit down on her lower lip, feeling deeply hurt: “Fine. You want more tto think, right? Take your time! Cool down and think it through!”

She threw the belt onto him, turned around, and slammed the door hard, venting her pent–up frustration.

Soon, the entire room was filled with a somber and heavy atmosphere.

Sheena returned to the adjacent room, determined that they would sleep in separate beds from now

The night was calm, but Sheena felt a constant buzzing in her head.

Elliot’s indifferent expression haunted her every tshe closed her eyes, making it impossible for her to sleep. Frustrated, she sat up in bed and checked her phone.

It was already 2 a.m.!

Yet, Elliot did not cto console her at all. Was he seriously considering breaking up?

It was utterly puzzling and irrational!

Sheena sighed, burying herself under the covers. It had been so long since she slept alone, and she actually found it rather awkward.

That night, both of them spent a sleepless night.

The next morning, when Sheena got up, Elliot’s door was still closed, indicating he had not risen yet. She got ready without speaking to him and headed straight to Angle Group.

The weather in Svelton these days had been perpetually gloomy, with rain shrouding the tall buildings in an almost ominous atmosphere.

Restless, Sheena sat at her desk, chin resting on her palm, gazing blankly at the rain outside.

Elliot’s peculiar behavior from the night before replayed in her mind like a stop–motion animation, distracting her from Wendy’s briefing.

Suddenly, she recalled the moment when she kicked Elliot off the bed, and he made a sound.

Elliot had always had great endurance, rarely making a peep unless he was intentionally being cute or pitiful. Besides, he was much heavier and had martial arts skills. How could she have easily kicked

him off?

The more she thought about it, the more something felt off.

All the signs pointed to Elliot possibly being injured!

His weakened state made him vulnerable, explaining why he was unguarded when she kicked him off

the bed.

Overwhelmed with regret, Sheena slammed her hand on the desk.

Last night, in her anger, she had not noticed these. Now, reflecting on the situation, everything about Elliot seemed strange!
