Wait, She’s a Billionaire

Why was Barbara not coming down yet?

If Corey went on with this brutality, Sheena could at most endure ten more strikes!

“You asked for this, so endure the pain!” Corey’s face darkened, and he raised his arm once again.

Sheena, anticipating the impending strike, closed her eyes and tensed her body.

The next moment, a pair of delicate hands embraced her from behind, shielding her back.

Barbara had heard the loud noises from downstairs and rushed down from the fourth floor.

“That’s enough, dear. Two hits should be enough. Nana is a delicate girl. Do you really want to break her legs?” Barbara tried to reason with Corey, who was still furious.

“Furthermore, it takes two to tango. Even if Nana initiated it, Elliot didn’t refuse. Why not teach him a lesson too?”

Sheena raised an eyebrow at this unexpected turn of events.

Why was the blame being shifted to Elliot now?

“Why would I hit Elliot? I’m taking people to the Jenkins family this afternoon to settle him!”

Still recovering from the pain, Sheena hurriedly interrupted, “Corey, why do you always want to settle scores so violently? We live in a lawful society now. Calm down. Hitting your own sister is enough. Leave other people’s kids alone!”

Corey rolled up his sleeves, sneering. “Fine! Since you’re protecting him, we still have forty–eight more strikes. Let’s continue!”

Sheena shivered at the mere mention of the number.

“Enough! Why are you mad at Nana? Those two hits just now sounded terrifying, even with the door closed upstairs. Nana must be in excruciating pain. If you injure her, you’ll regret it later. Keep your stubbornness in check.”

Barbara poked at Corey’s weakness. Then, she snatched his belt and skillfully fastened it for him.

“I’m also displeased with Elliot for his doings, and you’re forbidding Nana from being with him is for her future. However, after spending some time together, clashes are unavoidable. If Nana still chooses him, trust her once more and observe Elliot for a while.”

Barbara’s words gradually extinguished Corey’s anger, and he coldly sat on the opposite sofa.

Barbara rushed toast Sheena, who was still sprawled on the sofa armrest.

Tears glistened in na’s sparkling eyes as she gratefully exclaimed, “Barbara…”

“Does it hurt?” Barbara wiped away the cold sweat on Sheena’s forehead, helping her to sit on the

sofa with a limp.

As soon as she touched the sofa cushion, Sheena let out a soft gasp. Her features tightened, revealing a look of misery.

“Forget it. It hurts even more sitting down. I’m better off standing.”

Corey sat across from her, observing her keenly. His gaze shifted from sharp to calm and finally softened considerably.

Barbara noticed this and could not help but smirk.

Someone was beginning to feel sorry for Sheena!

Barbara knew Sheena well. With a subtle exchange of glances, she guessed that Sheena had taken the risk of coming over to tell the truth and had another purpose. Hence, she took the initiative to help bridge the gap.

“Nana, why are you here so early today? Have you encountered any difficulties recently?” Barbara

asked.

Sheena, supporting her waist, nodded.

Then, limping, she walked up to Corey, squatted in front of him, rested on his knees, and coquettishly asked, “Corey, do you remember what happened about six months ago, when Nathaniel stole the drug from the lab and harmed me?”

“I remember. What’s the matter?”

Sheena bit her lip and continued, “I think letting him stay in the high–security prison is too lenient.

Corey was puzzled and asked, “I had someone go in and beat him. enough?”

“No!”

Squatting was a bit tiring, especially in this position, causing Sheena’s jeans to tighten, and sweat began to bead on her forehead again.

She took a deep breath and added, “Yesterday, Nathaniel asked me to visit him in prison, shamelessly saying he wants to marry me. I just can’t stand seeing him live so comfortably!“‘

Corey furrowed his brows. “So, what do you want to do?”

A cold glint flashed in Sheena’s eyes as she replied, “I hope you can help me secretly get him out!”
