Chapter 535
“Nana, that’s a high–security prison. Nathaniel is a serious offender. Unless I personally step in for bail, it’s not easy to get him out.”
Sheena was well aware of that.
However, did Nathaniel deserve bail?
She began praising Corey with flattery, “Corey, you’ve always been the most amazing in my eyes. I know you’ll find a way. Trust me, I just want to teach him a lesson, make him suffer a bit, and after that, you can put him back.”
Corey fell silent.
He neither agreed nor refused.
Resting on his knees, Sheena, with teary eyes, started playing the pitiful card.
“Corey, you struck me today. Now that someone is bullying me, you don’t even plan to help me out at all? I’m so pitiful. Do you not care about me anymore?”
Noticing her sweating and in pain, Corey quickly grabbed a wet towel to help her wipe off the sweat. He had indeed hit her quite hard in the heat of the moment. Now, in his calmer state, he felt an overwhelming sense of pity.
After all, he doted on her and would give her the stars if she asked.
“How could I not care for you? I’ll do it.”
Having achieved her goal, Sheena breathed a sigh of relief.
“Thank you, Corey. So, when do you plan to get him out?”
Corey was about to suggest taking some time to plan things thoroughly when Sheena, grinning, continued, “Why wait? Let’s do it this afternoon.”
“Is it that urgent?”
Without answering, Sheena cautiously supported her waist, her face filled with a painful expression.
“My butt is hurting from beating. Please…”
Corey’s heart fluttered. “Alright. I’ll put aside everything and prioritize your matter. I’ll get it done before this afternoon.”
“Hehe, you’re the best!”
Corey sighed and gently tapped her nose. “Let Barbara take you to the room. Apply some medicine and take a short rest. I’ll call you when I’m done.”
“Alright!”

With Barbara’s support, Sheena climbed the stairs with great effort. When they reached the corner of the staircase, she cautiously glanced at Corey below, ensuring he could not see her. In an instant, she switched back to a normal walking posture.
While the spanking was indeed painful, it was only two hits. She rubbed herself a bit, and the pain quickly subsided.
Barbara suppressed a laugh, shaking her head in resignation. She understood Corey all too well, knowing he could easily see through Sheena’s intentions. However, he had genuinely been angry and resorted to physical punishment.
For Corey to feel at ease, something needed to compensate for that.
Sheena, calculating as she was, seized this opportunity and played him again.
Together, they entered the third–floor guest room, and Barbara closed the door behind them.
Sheena expressed her gratitude, “Thanks, but it’s not hurting much now. I’ll pass on the medicine. It’s too much trouble to apply. Can we chat for a bit?”
Barbara, still concerned, suggested, “Let me apply some ointment. Otherwise, the swelling will take at least two days to go down. I assume you wouldn’t want the person from the Jenkins family to find out when you go back, right?”
Sheena considered and agreed. Although she currently would not sleep with Elliot due to his illness, there was no guarantee he would not notice.
Elliot cherished her dearly, and she was aware of the strained relationship between Corey and Elliot, mostly due to her.
If Elliot discovered she had been beaten by Corey, it would likely cause a major uproar.
Moreover, she had just managed to ease Corey’s attitude toward Elliot, so she needed to tread carefully.
Corey always kept his promises.
By mid–afternoon, Corey had arranged for a few bodyguards to escort Sheena to’an abandoned building on the outskirts of town.
