Wait, She’s a Billionaire (Sheena Lawson) novel Chapter 1336

Although Sheena did not say a word to him and ignored him, their relationship was much better than before.

Corey was content with that.

Besides, even if he were to ask, Sheena probably would not tell the truth anyway, as she did not fully trust him.

Hence, Corey shifted his focus and went to play with Adora alongside Barbara.

Outside the mansion, Elliot pushed Santiago to a quiet corner of the backyard.

"Eli, let's talk here," Santiago said.

Elliot stopped and stepped back, standing straight with a dignified air.

Santiago pressed a button on the wheelchair's armrest, turning it to face Elliot.

However, he had to look up at Elliot, which strained his neck slightly due to Elliot's height.

"Eli, could you crouch down a bit? My neck is weak, and it hurts if I raise my head."

Elliot stayed silent with his gaze lowered, and it was hard to tell what he was thinking.

He hesitated briefly and crouched in a standard military posture about one meter away from Santiago's feet.

Santiago felt a pang of pain in his heart, saying, "I'm not trying to punish you. You don't have to kneel so formally. You're fully capable of handling the family affairs on your own, and I won't interfere with your decisions or treat you with the strict military discipline of your childhood. Relax."

Without looking up to meet his gaze, Elliot responded in a detached tone, "I'm used to it."

It was almost impossible for him to shed his serious and disciplined personality.

Santiago sighed softly, reaching out his wrinkled hand toward Elliot.

However, Elliot was too far.

"Eli, could you come a bit closer? I can't reach you."

This time, Elliot hesitated even longer.

He continued crouching in silence.
