Divorced My Stepdad's Brother After Rebirth (Eleanor and Elijah) novel Chapter 168

Chapter 168 Elijah Gets Jealous

Before Eleanor could even react, the door to the hospital room swung open.

Logan and Elijah stepped inside, their eyes immediately locking onto the hands that were still tightly intertwined..

Logan looked surprised.

Elijah, however, was as cold as ice, his gaze devoid of any warmth.

Jaxen lightly patted Eleanor’s hand. “Eleanor, let Logan take you home so you can get some rest.”

“Okay.” She grabbed her bag and followed Logan out.

As Elijah turned to leave, Jaxen gave him a faint smile.

“Elijah, thanks for coming to see me. I already feel like I’ve regained my strength.”

Elijah’s eyes narrowed, a dangerous glint flickering in his stare. “Oh? Then make sure you don’t waste it.”

Jaxen’s smile faded, and his gaze followed Elijah as he walked away, his expression unreadable.

Eleanor followed Logan downstairs, but he soon caught up in a work call.

After hanging up, he looked at her with a slightly awkward expression.

“Logan, you go ahead with your work. I’ve called a ride,” she said.

She gently pushed him toward the car and waved him off.

“You’re always so careful not to trouble others. Let me know when you’re home, alright?”

“I will. Take care.”

Once Logan left, Eleanor checked her ride app. The driver would still be five minutes away.

Just then, a car pulled up in front of her. The window rolled down slightly, revealing a pair of dark, cold eyes that felt as suffocating as the night.

“Get in.”

“I’m fine. I’ve got a ride already. You can go.” Her voice was flat, barely glancing at him, and she turned to walk away.

At that moment, the wind picked up, biting through the night, pushing cold gusts in every direction. Eleanor huddled her neck deeper into her coat, her face buried in the collar as she tried to absorb some warmth from the fabric.

A sharp sound came from behind her. Before she could react, her body tensed, and instinctively, she huddled her shoulders, shivering slightly.

In an instant, her coat was yanked off and thrown into a nearby trash can.

Frozen, she turned, her eyes burning with fury as she glared at the man in front of her.

“Elijah, what are you doing?”

“Does he smell that good?” Elijah’s voice was thick with possessiveness, his gaze narrowing.

“What… Achoo!”

Eleanor rubbed her nose, her frustration mounting as she struggled to find words.

Has Jaxen hugged me? Was that what Elijah had seen? Eleanor thought.
