Chapter 22
Looking at Elijah from a distance, Leon became more and more dissatisfied. He could not believe that Elijah had actually confronted Howard over Sheena. Did he not realize that he cared deeply for her?
What about Jennifer? She was such a good girl and was sent away by Sebastian because of Elijah, enduring the pain of separation for all those years. T

Moreover, Elijah had promised to marry Jennifer and take good care of her, but now he was neglecting her, which was truly heartbreaking.
Annoyed, Leon secretly texted Jennifer, briefly explaining what had happened today. He hoped that Jennifer could win over Elijah’s heart after reading it.
“Leon, we’re leaving!” Elijah suddenly called out, swiftly getting into the car, and waiting for him to take the driver’s seat.
Meanwhile, Sheena was lost.
The damned GPS was acting up. It showed that the signal was weak when she happened to be driving through Farlem’s most complicated multi–directional intersection, which caused her to go the wrong way.
She had already gone around the same route twice.
Suddenly, she noticed a car behind her that looked familiar. That car had been tailing her since a while ago.
From the rearview mirror, she recognized the license plate number: FA66699.
Elijah? Content protected by Nôv/el(D)rama.Org.
Sheena instantly became furious.
Why was this man still following her?!
She wanted nothing more than to get out of her car immediately and give him a good beating. However, those were just wishful thinking. The recent encounter in the car park made it clear that Elijah’s combat skills far surpassed hers.
If she could not fight, she would have to run!
Sheena sped up, determined to shake off her pursuer by taking more complicated routes.
Leon asked, “Mr. Freeman, our people have interfered with Ms. Sheena’s GPS, but she seems to have realized it. She’s no longer following the route we planned for her. She’s trying to shake us off.”
Elijah stared intently at the green Volkswagen Santana in front of him, and a wave of inexplicable anger washed over him.
Sheena was simply too audacious!
Elijah was determined to teach her a lesson since Howard was not there to stop him. He swore upon his name to give her a good beating and make her understand the consequences of offending him! at
“Speed up and find an opportunity to overtake her. Force her car to stop safely.”
“Yes, Mr. Freeman.”
The two cars raced at high speed on the highway.
Nonetheless, there was no way Sheena’s small Volkswagen Santana could match Elijah’s Lamborghini Huracan, as their acceleration was in completely different leagues.
Elijah’s car was rapidly catching up, intending to overtake her.
Sheena gritted her teeth and observed the upcoming intersection with a traffic light not far ahead.
A cunning grin appeared on her face as she thought of a plan.
As they approached the intersection, just a meter away from the dividing line, she sharply turned the steering wheel, driving into the left–turn lane. Then, making use of the last second of the yellow light, she floored the gas pedal and dashed through the intersection.
By the time Elijah’s driver realized her intentions, the light had turned red.
In the rearview mirror, Sheena saw him forced to stop as she left him in the dust. Her heart filled with exhilaration.
Elijah was still too inexperienced to compete with her in driving skills!
Feeling triumphant, she was caught off guard as two black cars suddenly emerged from both sides of the intersection. They were closing in aggressively, seemingly intent on stopping her forcibly.
Were there others after her too?
