Chapter 358
Sheena was satisfied with his consistently obedient demeanor. She grabbed his chin, observing his complexion. Without the modified 023, his face had lost the sickly paleness, and his dark eyes had gained more vibrancy. Even though he was still as handsome, his features now appeared sharper, making him look less easily intimidated.
Sheena smirked. “I still prefer how you looked on the modified 023 as you looked more in need of discipline but not easy to mess with. How about… injecting another dose of the modified 023? I can continue bullying you for a few more days, and once I get bored, I’ll reverse it.”
Elijah was surprised by her comment,
Was she serious?
The injection of the modified 023 was extremely painful. Coupled with the existing injury on his back, it intensified the suffering several times over.
The pain was nearly unbearable.
Elijah smiled bitterly, saying, “If your happiness relies on my suffering, as long as it’s your command and you believe I’m sincere now, I’ll unquestionably comply.”
“Really?” Sheena raised his chin a bit more, forcing eye contact.
Elijah gazed into her sparkling eyes, nodding.
Seeing his earnestness, Sheena chuckled, releasing her grip on his chin.
“Just kidding. I’m not that sadistic and twisted.”
Elijah lowered his gaze, remaining silent.
As the joke passed, Sheena adopted a serious expression and delved into business. “Your subordinates seem quite capable, especially Lionel. How would their chances be if they were to face off against similarly trained military elites?”
“If it’s a direct confrontation, hard to say, but with Lionel and the others‘ skills, engaging in a fight would only take a bit more time. The odds of losing aren’t big.”
“Oh,” Sheena replied simply and entered into contemplation.
“Why the sudden interest in this?” Elijah asked.
Sheena evaded the question, saying, “Nathaniel will be coming to the mansion for dinner tonight.”
Elijah remained silent and frowned.
Observing his reaction, Sheena leaned closer to his car and whispered a few words.

In the evening, when it was approximately the time Nathaniel had agreed upon for his arrival, Sheena stood at the entrance of Ocean Avenue, waiting.
Nathaniel arrived in a military vehicle, accompanied by only two of his closest subordinates. As he stepped out of the car, he immediately spotted Sheena, and he could not hide his genuine delight.
“Nana, you look stunning tonight. Even though we met in the daytime just a few hours ago, it feels like it’s been half a month, and I’ve missed you dearly,” Nathaniel remarked.

The novel is too abusive it spoils the joy of reading it. I hate the punishment part between sheena and Eliot....
