Chapter 285

Howard lowered his head, appearing deep in thought. After contemplating for a while, he shook his head.

“No. Dad is not young anymore, and he was already quite old when you were born. Lauren has been seeking remedies and consulting doctors for years, but she never got pregnant.”

Sheena’s stepmother, Lauren Sandler, was three years older than her, leading to constant conflicts between them. Whenever they were together, they would usually end up arguing after just a few words.

Sheena pondered for a moment. She had a gut feeling that the events from years ago when she lost her memory and ended up in Farlem were somehow connected to the little girl in her mind. However, she could not recall anything.

Nevertheless, this matter needed to be investigated slowly later on. For now, she had to set it aside.

“Howard, how did you handle those people last night?”

Howard fell silent. When he arrived last night, the fight on the bridge was nearly over, with Elijah and his men arriving first. Howard had tidied up the aftermath and kept a few survivors for further interrogation.

After sthought, he avoided the topic of Elijah. “They hurt my beloved sister, so I took care of most of them to vent your anger. I left two survivors locked up. Once you’re better, you can personally interrogate them to see if we can get any information.”

“Okay.”

Sheena placed the soup by the bedside, suddenly recalling that she vaguely remembered being rescued last night.

“Howard, did you jump into the water to save me?”

Bringing up the matter seemed to irk Howard. When he arrived, Elijah had already jumped into the water to rescue Sheena. He noticed Sheena’s evening dress was torn on both sides of her slits, and Howard could not help but wonder if that bastard Elijah had done anything inappropriate to her.

“Yup, that was me.” Howard averted his gaze, somewhat awkward.

Sheena frowned, saying, “Really? But I remember someone performing CPR on me.”

“What?” Howard blurted out.

He knew he could not trust Elijah!

He should not have been lenient and thrown that bastard back into the river to freeze to death!

“You were not conscious at the time. You must have remembered it wrong,” Howard defended.

Sheena stared deeply into his eyes. “Howard, don’t lie to me.”

“Why would I lie to you? It’s the truth.” Howard met her gaze, looking determined.

Sheena knew him too well. Even If she knew he was not telling the truth, if he insisted on not saying, she would not be able to get anything out of him.

So, she changed her approach. “What about Elijah? Where did he go last night?”

“How should I know where he went last night? It’s all because of his darling Jennifer that so much trouble happened. I’m sure he’s somewhat related to it. Don’t worry about him. I locked him up in

Ocean Avenue, barring him from coming out,” Howard explained.

Sheena frowned, still wanting to say something, but Howard immediately picked up cutting off her words.

soup,

“Con, Nana, drink more. Auntie Gloria personally prepared this for you. It’s beneficial for your wound recovery.”

In the basement of Ocean Avenue, the coughing was heart–wrenching, and the echoes. lingered for a long time. It was extremely frightening,

Elijah curled up on the cold floor. The intense coughing made his face unnaturally pale, and he looked weak. He was covered in cold sweat, his body burning hot, and his consciousness was fading.

Ford, who was closest to him, was still in the hospital recovering. Howard ordered John and Sawyer to lock him in the basement, providing no water or food. He was not even given any light.

Elijah suffered in the darkness of the basement for over ten hours.
