Wait, She’s a Billionaire (Sheena Lawson) novel Chapter 346

Chapter 346 

Sheena did not deny it, saying, “I’ve never claimed to be kind.” 

Elijah merely chuckled. His once deep black eyes now looked dull and lifeless as they stared into the distance. 

He truly resembled someone on the brink of death. 

The more Sheena observed him, the more puzzled she became, wondering why her condition was worsening. After all, sulfuric acid could not harm the internal organs, especially since she had given him the antidote to Compound 023. 

“Perhaps the hospital yesterday wasn’t up to par and failed to diagnose your issues. Come on, let’s go to the best hospital in Farlem for another checkup,” Sheena suggested, about to forcefully pull Elijah up when Ian knocked on the door. 

“Miss, Mr. Nicholls has come in person as you didn’t answer his call. He’s parked at the entrance and mentioned wanting to take you out for dinner tonight.” 

Sheena hesitated but decided to take Elijah to the hospital first. “Let’s go and get a checkup.” 

Elijah weakly rejected, “I’m fine. I just need a couple of days‘ rest. Go and have dinner with him. Don’t keep him waiting.” 

Sheena frowned. 

The last time Nathaniel had invited her to dinner, Elijah put on a dramatic show competing for her favor at the police station. This time, not only did he not object, but he also encouraged her to have dinner with Nathaniel. 

By the door, Ian cautiously added, “Miss, are you coming?” 

Sheena did not respond immediately, observing Elijah. 

Elijah continued to lie there, gazing into the distance, emitting an icy aura. 

What was happening to him? 

Sheena was perplexed, but there were urgent matters at hand. Hence, she carefully asked again, “Elijah, tell me the truth. Are you sure you’re okay?” 

Elijah nodded lightly, looking indifferent. “I’m just tired. I’ll take a nap after you leave, and I’ll be fine when I wake up.” 

Sheena stared at him and then glanced at Nathaniel’s car parked outside the mansion. After contemplating it over, she gave in. 

“Alright, you rest well, then. I’ll make sure Ford and the others guard the mansion and won’t disturb your rest.” 

After that, she turned to leave. 

Suddenly, Elijah grabbed her wrist, appearing earnest as he warned Sheena, “Sheena, 

Nathaniel is not a simple person. There might be secrets behind him that could hurt you. You must be careful and alert against him in the future.” 

Sheena did not dwell on it and simply acknowledged, “Okay.”

Then, she left the room. 

The soft rays of the setting sun bathed everything in a warm glow. A gentle breeze rustled the delicate silk curtains, occasionally caressing the man lying on the recliner by the window. Elijah remained motionless, his gaze fixed on the outside of the mansion as Sheena got into Nathaniel’s car, accompanied by Paul and Ian, and drove away. He continued to watch until the car completely disappeared from his line of sight. 

Later, Elijah grimaced in pain, supporting himself on the armrest. The suppressed ache in his chest became unbearable, and he covered his mouth as a metallic taste rose in his throat. 

After a wrenching fit of coughing, blood trickled from his lips, pooling in his palm. Elijah’s hand was immediately covered in blood, dripping onto the floor through his trembling fingers. He lowered his eyes, examining the color of the blood in his palm–it was dark red. The amount of blood he coughed up and its color were becoming increasingly alarming. 

This indicated that the S404 virus in his body had fully erupted. He remembered when Professor Y developed this biochemical weapon from the war laboratory. He had observed the experiments where small animals died instantly upon exposure. Meanwhile, larger animals infected with the S404 virus could not survive beyond three days. 

Calculating the days since he was poisoned, this night marked the third day.
