Wait, She’s a Billionaire

Sheena spent the night accompanying Elliot in the laboratory ward.

Early the next day, she took Elliot back to the mansion. Then, she drafted a plan for him following the guidelines laid out by Yosef.

The main points were no smoking, no alcohol, avoiding intense physical activities, consuming plenty of fruits and vegetables, and incorporating half an hour of light morning exercise each day.

Elliot, observing Sheena’s enthusiasm, accepted her arrangements without objection.

Back at the mansion, Sheena headed straight to the kitchen to prepare a pot of soup.

After breakfast, she casually mentioned, “I have some matters to attend to at the Lawson estate today. You shouldn’t go to the Jenkins Group for the time being. If there are any documents needing your signature, have Lionel bring them over.”

Elliot, slightly puzzled, asked, “Since you’re going to the Lawson estate, should I accompany you?”

“No need,” Sheena replied as she served him another bowl of soup, concealing the unease in her eyes. “You experienced angina just yesterday, and your body hasn’t fully recovered. So, you should rest for a few more days.”

Elliot could not help but feel worried, especially when he noticed that Sheena had changed into a different outfit after returning.

She usually favored dresses, but this day, she surprisingly wore a pair of sturdy jeans and a crisp white T–shirt, showcasing her slender and clean silhouette.

Yet, there was something off, something he could not quite put his finger on.

“I think Corey is still in Svelton. I can’t help but worry if you’re going back alone,” Elliot expressed. This material belongs to NôvelDrama.Org.

Sheena chuckled. “Corey spoils me the most. Do you think he’ll really beat me up?”

Elliot fell silent, plunging them into a heavy atmosphere.

Sheena kissed his forehead and ran her fingers through his short hair. “Relax, I won’t let him find out about us. You stay home, and I’ll be back as soon as I’m done, okay?”

“Okay.” Elliot’s restless mood eased under her reassurance.

Satisfied, Sheena left the house, driving back to Mountville alone. Instead of heading to Albert’s mansion, she went directly to see Corey.

Standing in Trol of Corey’s mansion, Sheena hesitated for a while.

Taking several deep breaths and checking the thickness of her jeans, she mustered the courage to ring the doorbell. Just as her hand reached for the doorbell, the entrance swung open from the inside.

Sheena’s fingers froze in place as she met Corey’s piercing eyes.

Corey wore an elegant navy blue suit, exuding a commanding and formidable presence. “Hey, Corey! What a coincidence! Heading out? Have you and Barbara had breakfast?”

Awkwardly retracting her hand, Sheena smiled sweetly,

Corey squinted his eyes. “Not really a coincidence. I just came downstairs and saw you coming in sneakily from the garden. What are you up to?”

Sheena chuckled. “Come on, you’re exaggerating. I’m just paying a visit. I didn’t sneak around.”

Corey, knowing her too well, chose not to expose her. He turned and sat back on the living room sofa.

Sheena followed him into the house, glancing upstairs.

“Is Barbara not at home today? She’s out so early!”

Nervously sweating in her palms, she dreaded the thought of Barbara not being there. That would spell trouble for her.

“She’s upstairs in the study. Are you here to see her?” Corey asked casually, opening the drawer and grabbing a cigarette.

However, remembering Sheena’s dislike for smoke, he silently put it back, lifting his gaze to meet

Sheena’s.

Just as Sheena sighed in relief, she caught Corey’s intense gaze. Already feeling guilty, her legs started trembling uncontrollably.
