Wait, She’s a Billionaire (Sheena Lawson) novel Chapter 2198

Sheena nodded and said, "True. If he wants to win her back, he should do it properly. If he doesn't want a divorce, he could just say so. Honesty is always the best approach. Instead, he chose to be sneaky and dishonest."

She turned to look at Elliot, hinting at something.

Elliot immediately understood, his expression changing as he protested, "Nana, I'm different from Nathaniel. When I wrote that goodbye letter and left Farlem, I truly thought I was going to die. I returned to Svelton to fight Uncle Peter for control of the family, fully prepared to sacrifice my life."

She teased in a soft voice, "Talking about the past makes me feel bad for you. Should I make it up to you a bit more tonight?"

Elliot held her slim waist, gently caressing.

As she got up to leave, Nathaniel grabbed her wrist. "Should I come with you?"
