Chapter 486
Sheena hung up the phone. As she tried to get up, her legs could not stop trembling. She had to steady herself by the bedside to stand firm.
Elliot had been too harsh last night!
He pushed her on for almost half the night, giving her hardly any rest, and it was now a brand–new day.
In contrast, Elliot had a radiant complexion and seemed to have slept like a baby, fully rejuvenated.
The difference in physical endurance between men and women was indeed significant!
Shaking off her thoughts, Sheena felt someone’s arm gently encircle her small waist from behind, and a chin rested on her shoulder.
“Going out?”
“Yes.”
“Would you like some breakfast first?” This content provided by N(o)velDrama].[Org.
“No thanks. I need to finish getting ready quickly. I have to make a trip to the hospital,” Sheena replied while changing into fresh clothes.
Elliot did not stop her, just asking, “Need any help?
“No need. It’s just a small matter.”
As she turned to leave the room, Elliot pulled her back into his embrace, pinching her chin and looking at her seriously.
“Nana, you’re not alone anymore. You have to learn to make use of your man.”
He emphasized the word ‘use‘, smiling mischievously.
Obviously, it had a double meaning.
Sheena blushed slightly, choosing to feign ignorance. “Got it. I’ll come to you if I have any trouble I
can’t handle.”
Elliot nodded gently, satisfied.
Without Elliot stopping her, Sheena freshened up, applied light makeup, and headed out.
All hospital entrances were mobbed by reporters due to Phoebe’s stay in the ward.
Sheena drove directly into the garage, where crowd control was stricter, leaving only a few journalists
at the exit.
In Phoebe’s ward, her condition seemed much better than yesterday, though she still appeared pale
and worn.

“Take a look at this.” Sheena handed her the phone, showing the apology Caleb had written hastily. the previous night and posted it on Twitter.
Phoebe took the phone, and as she read on, her eyes gradually reddened. She was choking slightly
with tears.
She
was Sheena’s only friend from Farlem Orphanage and seeing her so heartbroken made Sheena equally upset.
“Phoebe, this scumbag Caleb is not only Zephyr Entertainment’s ace now, but he also comes from a well–off family. Just an affair won’t completely ruin him, especially with so many fans defending him online. If you want him out of the entertainment industry, it’ll take some extra effort. However, if you want that to happen, I can do everything in my power to make him and Lisa pay a devastating price.”
“No need.” Phoebe wiped away her tears. Her swollen and dry eyes looked unusually determined.” Sheena, you’ve done too much for me already. I can’t burden you any further. I’ll handle the rest myself. I want to savor the pleasure of revenge personally.”
When Phoebe saw the apology Caleb personally posted, she was furious.
Both in his words and between the lines, Caleb still blamed her, apologizing superficially while subtly accusing her and saying he did nothing wrong.
What a piece of shit!
“You’re holding up well, and I’m glad for that,” Sheena said, handing her a tissue. “From today, you’re the ace artist Angle Group wholeheartedly supports. I hope you can win this year’s Golden Flower’s Best Actress award with your talent, showing Caleb what he’s missed out on. That Lisa isn’t even worthy of being mentioned alongside you.”
“Thank you, Sheena.” Phoebe hugged her tightly, feeling a rush of emotions.
She had no parents, and the only blessing she could count on in her twenty–something years was meeting Sheena.
“The hospital is swarming with media reporters. You won’t get any peace and quiet here. Let me take you to a different place. We’ll rest for a few days, heal your body, and return stronger. How about that?
Phoebe shook her head. “This time, I won’t run away. Let those reporters in. I can handle even the sharpest questions. One day, I want Caleb and Lisa to kneel and bow in front of me in public!”
