Wait, She’s a Billionaire ( Sheena Lawson )
Chapter 1034
They kept their distance, leaving a gap big enough for another person to sit between them.
It was as if the distance between them seemed impossible to bridge.
The quiet atmosphere lingered for a minute, and it was not until Anne spoke up that the strange tension was broken.
âMs. Lawson, congratulations on the collaboration with Dorvell Corporation. Itâs al
significant step for the Lawson Group to expand overseas.â
Sheena glanced at Anneâs exquisitely beautiful face, her tone devoid of much emotion as- she replied, âThank you.â
Anne sighed with regret. âItâs a shame, though. The Lawson Groupâs plans to expand
overseas through Dorvell Corporationâs project might be in jeopardy.â
Sheena narrowed her eyes cautiously, reading Anneâs expression.
âWhe
do
do you mean?â
Anne smiled, looking apologetic, and replied, âI talked about the bidding for Dorvell Corporationâs project with Paulo last night. He felt sorry that we lost the bid as I had put in too much effort for this proposal, saying that you only won because of nepotism. So, he
wanted to help me reclaim the cooperation rights.â
âTake the cooperation rights from me?â Sheena scoffed. âWas Paulo drunk when he said that in bed? Besides, my proposal has been revised countless times and is the result of many sleepless nights. You wouldnât have stood a chance unless I didnât attend Dorvell Corporationâs bidding meeting this time.
In her career, she had always been meticulous and believed in her own skills and abilities.
Even without the issue of Elliotâs approach, the proposal she had personally written would have been topânotch.
Anne observed the arrogance on Sheenaâs face.
âMs. Lawson, you are really charming when you are confident. Unfortunately, the Jenkins
and Lawson families are no longer the big fish in the pond once you go abroad. Ms. Lawson, you should know that there are always others out there.â
Sheena stared at her, pondering her familiar tone.
âMs. Windsor, the first time I saw you, I couldnât help but feel you resembled someone.â
Anne smiled with a twinkle in her eyes.
âOh? Who?â
âMy sister.â
Sheena casually spoke, but her eyes carefully scrutinized Anneâs every move.
Anne looked pleasantly surprised and exclaimed, âReally? Iâm honored that Ms. Lawson
finds me familiar.â
Sheena chuckled. âI donât actually like this sister of mine. Sheâs just a bastard child of the Lawson family, an ugly duckling who clearly doesnât belong but wants to take my place.â
Anneâs smile faded slightly, and tears welled up in her eyes.
Hurt and aggrieved, she asked, âSo, Ms. Lawson, are you using your sister to mock me, implying that Iâm overreaching?â
âNo, just a jest, Ms. Windsor. Donât take it to heart.â
Sheena continued with a wry smile, âMs. Windsor, youâre far superior to my troublesome sister in terms of family background, appearance, education, and personality. How could she even compare herself to you?â
Anneâs expression warmed slightly, and she asked curiously, âIt sounds like thereâs an unusual story between you and your sister. May I ask how sheâs doing now?â
âSheâs dead. No ashes, no grave. My brother left her name and image at the Memorial Garden, where there are only the forgotten dead, forever without the remembrance and prayers of loved ones, even in the afterlife.â
Anne listened in shock.
âSheâs so pitiful.â
Sheena chuckled lightly. âSheâs not pitiful. She nearly tore apart the Lawson family back then. She got what she deserved.â
Anne nodded thoughtfully, about to ask more when Paulo arrived.
Seeing him, Anne tearfully threw herself into his arm.
âDarling, what took you so long? I missed you so much.â
pter
âIâm sorry, sweetheart.â
Paulo kissed her as if no one else were around.
After a sweet moment, Paulo noticed Sheenaâs presence.
âMs. Lawson, youâre here too.â
As a courtesy, Sheena smiled and nodded.
Anne playfully toyed with Pauloâs golden sideburns, and he indulged her.
However, his gaze remained on Sheena.
âMs. Lawson, AN Group is interested in collaborating with Dorvell Corporation. Would you be willing to relinquish this deal? Iâm ready to help the Lawson Group with other
introductions as compensation.â
