Wait, She’s a Billionaire (Sheena Lawson) novel Chapter 521

Chapter 521 

Since there was no way to deal with Sheena, Elliot simply ignored her. 

He redirected his gaze to the window, his eyes regaining their indifference. 

His icy, high–and–mighty CEO facade crumbled in Sheena’s presence. 

Seeing that Elliot remained silent and unresponsive, Sheena decided not to press him further. 

“Alright, take your time to cool down. But I don’t want to hear any talk of breaking our engagement or breaking up. You insisted on being with me first, and now you want to back out? No way! Elliot, you’re mine for life!” 

“Also, I’m sorry, but I’m just that domineering. It’s too late for you to realize who I really am!” 

Sheena scoffed, got up, and left with graceful strides. She knew Elliot too well. He was stubborn, and getting him to speak his mind would be a great challenge. Moreover, he preferred to endure in silence, hiding his pain deep inside. 

As for why he developed such a demeanor, Sheena had already guessed most of it. During the previous banquet, Santiago got angry and even mentioned punishing Elliot in her presence. Elliot’s parents had died in a car accident when he was very young, and Santiago had raised him. Santiago had traditional and strict beliefs, and Elliot likely endured many beatings and punishments. He had been left to endure injuries and pain on his own without anyone to care for him. 

Moreover, Elliot had always cherished those close to him, and the more he loved someone, the more he hid things from them. 

Sheena had a hunch. 

This time, it was not just an injury. He was probably ill! 

Considering his unusual behavior, the issue seemed far from simple. 

Although Elliot refused to talk, it did not mean she could not investigate on her own.. 

Lost in these thoughts, Sheena left the office. 

Lionel was standing not far away. 

She walked over and wh pered, “I need to talk to you about something. Come with me quietly.” 

“Huh?” 

Lionel, observie

rious expression, felt a bit uneasy. However, unable to refuse, he awkwardly and secure corridor. 

“Ms. Sheeha, what’s going on?” 

Sheena asked, “How many years have you been with Elliot?” 

212 

Lionel thought for a moment. “More than ten.” 

Nodding thoughtfully, she continued probing, “During this recent trip to the border, did Elliot get injured?” 

“No. He has us with him. We won’t let him get hurt so easily. You can rest assured,” Lionel replied promptly, looking composed. 

Having gained some insight, Sheena asked, “Then it must be an illness.” 

Lionel lowered his head, not responding.
