Chapter 361
Sheena’s expression gradually froze, staring at him in disbelief as she grumbled, “Nate, are you actually doubting me?”
Nathaniel chuckled. “Silly girl, I was just teasing. Of course I trust you. But is this wine prepared by you or Elijah? I’m skeptical of him.”
Sheena showed him her empty red wine glass. “I’ve already drunk it. If someone did anything to it, I would be the first to be affected.”
Nathaniel remained silent, swirling the wine in his hand, still not drinking.
Sheena felt a bit displeased. Pouting, she glanced at the unopened bottle of red wine beside her and asked, “Nate, are you trying to make me drink the whole bottle, just like last time, to prove my sincerity?”
Nathaniel stayed silent.
Sheena angrily grabbed the wine, but Nathaniel stopped her.
“I believe you. Even if this bottle were poisoned, I would drink it. After all, you’re a beautiful poison, and I’ve long been intoxicated by you.”
He smiled indulgently, finally lifting the glass, and taking a sip.
In the garden, Nathaniel’s two trusted aides stood by the entrance, resembling two statues.
Ford approached them, asking in a friendly manner. “Hey bros, I bet you haven’t had dinner yet. We secretly grilled some kebabs in the backyard. Would you like to join us?”
The two aides, with cold expressions, immediately declined. “No.”
Ford remained patient. “Don’t worry, Ms. Sheena is always very friendly. With her around, Mr. Nicholls won’t get mad at you. Besides, it’s dinner time, and considering Mr. Nicholls’s relationship with her, we’ll all be family sooner or later. This is just an early chance to get acquainted.”
This time, the two hesitated for a moment before saying, “No need.”
Unable to break through, Ford was figuring out how to continue persuading them without being too insistent when Paul approached, carrying two skewers of kebabs, and handing them
over.
“Ford, the barbecue tonight is delicious. You should try it. Ms. Sheena said Mr. Nicholls won’t leave so early, so let’s enjoy the food and drinks. They’ve opened two bottles of beer for you over there. Come on.”
“Alright.”
Ford took a skewer and ate it in front of the two men, savoring every bite.
Few could resist the allure of freshly grilled kebabs. It was just too alluring!
The tantalizing aroma wafted in the breeze, and Nathaniel’s aides stared at the meat in Ford’s hands, gulping hard, obviously resisting the temptation.

Ford continued enthusiastically, “Bros, come on. Mr. Nicholls is probably staying late tonight. You two might have to go hungry for the entire night. There’s alcohol prepared in the backyard, so go and have a few sips, Mr. Nicholls won’t mind.”
The two men exchanged glances, ultimately unable to resist the temptation of the kebabs. Soon, they went to the backyard with Ford.
The dinner continued until late in the evening, well past 10 p.m. Nathaniel and Sheena chatted happily, his handsome face flushed, and his blue eyes now appeared a bit hazy.
“Nana, I’m truly happy that you’ve changed your mind. In this world, no other man is worthy of you besides me. We’re a match made in heaven.”

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