Chapter 647
Sheena was puzzled. After all, she was not here to meet her future mother–in–law, so why
the need for elaborate dressing?
Nonetheless, she was well aware that she still had to continue dealing with Nathaniel after
this.
Hence, she politely explained, “I didn’t bring many clothes with me for this trip abroad, so
I don’t have a more suitable outfit.”
Hearing her explanation, Nathaniel’s initial disappointment in his eyes gradually faded,
replaced by a hint of regret.
“I’m sorry. This is my oversight. I should have prepared a suitable dress for you in
advance. Don’t be upset, I won’t let it happen again.”
Sheena averted her gaze, saying, “It’s okay, there’s no need to apologize.”
“Let’s go, we’ll head inside first. I’ll show you around, and before noon, I’ll have someone
bring some dresses for you. We can then have lunch with my mom.
Nathaniel smiled warmly, his eyes affectionate and fixated on her face, reaching out to
hold her hand. However, Sheena slightly furrowed her brow, instinctively pulling her hand
back before their hands

This action seemed to trigger a sensitive nerve in Nathaniel.
He abruptly moved forward, grabbing Sheena’s chin forcefully.
“We’re getting married soon. Why do you resist me like this? Why is it that Elliot can
publicly kiss you, but I can’t even hold your hand?”
“We’re not married yet. We have no relationship. Why do you feel entitled to hold my hand
in public? “Sheena countered, her cold gaze unwavering.
Lionel, who was about to step out of the car, witnessed the scene. Acting decisively, he
approached, seizing Nathaniel’s wrist.
“Let go! Don’t hurt her!”
Nathaniel released Sheena’s chin, but Lionel continued to grip his wrist tightly. Despite
Nathaniel’s attempts to free himself, he could not succeed.
“Are you the bodyguard Nana brought this time?”
Nathaniel scrutinized Lionel, who had disguised himself for the outing with a large red
birthmark on his left cheek and a prominent black mole at the corner of his right eye.
Acnes covered his face, and makeup was used to enhance the structure and tip of his
nose.
Looking a bit bizarre, Nathaniel could not recognize him.
Under his direct scrutiny, Lionel remained calm.
“Yes, Mr. Lance. I’m Nell, Ms. Sheena’s bodyguard.
Nathaniel glanced at Lionel once and withdrew his gaze, unable to look at Lionel’s rather
bizarre face any longer.
Then, he looked at Sheena doubtfully and asked, “Nana, you always had high standards
for your bodyguards‘ appearances. When did your taste change, hiring someone who
looks this ugly?”
Sheena took another glance at Lionel, admittedly finding him quite unattractive.
“He didn’t look this ugly originally. The acne on his face is due to not adapting well to the
local environment. Although he’s not handsome, he has a good physique and is skilled.
Don’t underestimate him.”
Ignoring Lionel’s face, Nathaniel glanced at his physique and said in a rather jealous tone,
“Decent proportions, but plenty of men have good bodies. Besides, you haven’t seen him
without clothes. He might not even have abs.”
Caught in the middle of their discussion, Lionel felt a bit embarrassed and lowered his
head. He discreetly touched his stomach and let out a long sigh.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmThankfully, Elliot was not around. If Elliot knew that Sheena praised his physique, he would
probably be jealous and promptly send him far away to mine coals, ensuring Sheena never
saw him again.
Seeing Nathaniel’s attention completely focused on Lionel, Sheena changed the subject
and said, I’m getting tired from the standing. Let’s go.”
Without waiting for Nathaniel’s response, she walked ahead, avoiding any attempts by
Nathaniel to hold her hand again.
Lionel quickly caught up.
Most European–style buildings were predominantly white and gold, exuding an air of
dignity and nobility. The walls were adorned with porcelain murals, a stark contrast to the
style of architecture
back in Froania.
Nathaniel walked alongside Sheena, guiding her through the grandeur of the palace while
providing explanations.
“I hold a privilege token given by my mom. Apart from areas like the king’s bed–chamber,
study, and council chamber, which are restricted, you’re free to come and go anywhere
else.”
