Wait, She’s a Billionaire

Nathaniel was stunned, staying silent for a long time.

The concept of silently giving without expecting anything in return struck him hard.

If he had already given, why should he not expect something in return?

What kind of logic was this?

He released Lionel, wiped his hands with a wet cloth, and replied coldly, “Regardless of whether she loves me or not, she can only be mine. As we spend more time together, she’ll be moved. I’ll make her willingly marry me!”

Discarding the wet cloth, he glanced at the others nearby, “Continue. Take good care of this gentleman.”

After giving the orders, he turned away without looking back, leaving the dungeon.

The sharp sound of whipping, accompanied by the tearing of flesh by the whip, soon filled the air, chilling to the bone.

The next day dawned, and the noise of car engines outside disturbed Sheena’s sleep.

Groggy, she ignored it, turning over to continue sleeping. In the past, she would not have been able to sleep through such a critical moment. However, the physical burden of pregnancy was beyond her

control.

Five minutes later, there was a knock on the bedroom door.

It was Nathaniel.

“Nana, get ready. I’ll take you to the dungeon to see Lionel.

Sheena, still half–asleep, sát up in bed, asking through the door, “Are you serious?”

She found it hard to believe he would let her see Lionel so easily.

Was he planning something else?

Nathaniel’s tone was cheerful, a slight smile playing on his lips. “Of course, I’m serious. I’ll wait for you in the living room downstairs. Come down when you’re ready.”

Sheena quickly got out of bed and started to freshen up.

Regardless of Nathaniel’s intentions, being able to see Lionel and ensuring he was safe was always a good thing. This text is © NôvelDrama/.Org.

She did not bother with makeup, going downstairs bare–faced with a snow–white fox fur coat.

When Nathaniel saw her, he was momentarily taken aback.

It felt like time had rolled back, and the innocent, adorable, and cheerful Sheena from seven years ago

had returned to him

He stood up, adjusting her coat as he said, “Let’s go ”

Before leaving, he thoughtfully handed her a hand warmer

“The dungeon is cold and damp. You have to be extra careful during the first few months of pregnancy. Don’t catch a cold ”

Sheena stared at him with doubt but remained silent.

Nathaniel, with a smirk, added, “Don’t worry. I deliberately chose something harmless for pregnant

women”

Sheena accepted it.

Then, the two of them got into the car in silence and headed to the dungeon.

The stench of blood and the intense dampness greeted them as they entered.

Sheena suppressed the urge to vomit, quietly following Nathaniel to a cell at the end of the dungeon.

The small window on the iron door

“Nathaniel, you’re too cruel!”

breath weak.

Sheena’s eyes turned red, and she raised her hand as if to slap him, but he firmly grabbed her wrist.

“Just a few lashes, but he won’t die for now. Nana, you seem to care more about the lackeys around Elliot than you do about me. It really makes my heart achel”

The last few words were uttered through gritted teeth, and Nathaniel’s eyes turned fierce.

‘Nana, I know you’re still figuring out how to get Clear before the wedding. If you’re not marrying me, I won’t keep my promise! If you try to deceive me, the sulfuric acid Elliot splashed on me will be Lionel’s reward too. I’ll also make him go through all the other punishments he put me through! He gently released Sheena’s wrist, showing restraint, considering her condition.
