Wait, She’s a Billionaire ( Sheena Lawson )
Chapter 142
Elijah glared at him. âWeâll return when we find her.â
The man wisely stayed quiet while another brazenly asked, âItâs been several days since Ms. Sheena parachuted. This vast mountainous area is full of wild wolves and boars. What if sheâ¦â
what ifs. Even if only her bones remain, Iâll bring her back. If anyone dares ask such questions again, donât blame me for being ruthless.â
Elijah spoke calmly, but his tone was cold and harsh.
The others were frightened into silence and retreated to rest.
As everyone gradually fell asleep, Elijah remained awake, looking out the window with an unreadable expression.
In the Freeman mansion, the lights were still on.
âThis is so infuriating!â
Clank!
The loud sound echoed as Faye forcefully slammed her cup onto the ground, shattering the crystal teacup.
âJennifer dared to hold a press conference in the name of Elijahâs fiancee, tarnishing the reputation of the Freeman family! Even the Moore family has severed ties with her, so why are we keeping her around? Tomorrow, weâll announce that Elijahâs engagement with her is canceled!â Faye said angrily, sitting on the sofa.
She soon added, âNot only that, but the Moore family is also shameless! Vanessa even had the nerve to suggest I switch the engagement to Hannah!â
Seeing Fayeâs frustration, Erin hurried over to comfort her and offer some suggestions. âJennifer is such a good actress! Iâd never expected her to stoop so low! She was even being publicly humiliated in front of the media⦠How embarrassing! Canceling the engagement is definitely the right move! But⦠Is it really okay to do this behind Eliâs back?â
âWhat could go wrong?â Faye frowned, becoming angrier than before. âIâm his mom! Besides, do you really think Eli would keep Jennifer around after what she had done?â
âBut Eli isnât here. The Freeman family needs Eli to hold down the fort, right?â Erin sighed, taking a seat next to her.
âThatâs actually a problemâ¦â Faye fell into contemplative silence.
âHowever, since Eli isnât here, itâs the best time to teach that bitch a lesson!â Erin was eager to take action and show Sheena her place.
Suddenly, Erinâs phone rang, and they exchanged glances before she answered the call.
âHello, Erin, long time no see! How are you and Auntie
and Auntie Faye doing?â The cheerful voice of a woman on the other end filled her ears.
âBâBeth?â Erin was shocked. âYouâre back in the country?â
Erin immediately handed the phone to Faye and gave her a meaningful look, suggesting they should converse directly.
The Carver family was a powerful extension of the Freeman family, and Bethany Carver was the heir to the Carver family. She had been studying abroad in France and was known for her business insight.
Understanding Erinâs intent, Faye engaged in small talk with Bethany.
âBeth, when did you return to the country? Are you planning to come back to Farlem?â
âAuntie Faye, Iâll arrive in Farlem this afternoon and definitely come visit soon. Itâs been so long, and Iâve missed you a lot.â
âHow about letting Erin and I pick you up? Itâll be a way to welcome you back. Do you have any other plans? If not, you can stay at the Freeman mansion for a few days,â Faye suggested. âWell⦠I donât have any plans for now, so Iâll do as you advise,â Bethany agreed readily. After hanging up the phone, Fayeâs previously troubled expression vanished completely. Erin, who had been listening attentively, also felt triumphant.
âMom, this is great! Beth is back. If sheâs willing to help us, I donât believe Sheena can stand a chance against us! Howard canât keep protecting her every time!â
Faye did not say anything further, but the expression on her face revealed her true feelings.
