Wait, She’s a Billionaire ( Sheena Lawson )
Chapter 254
Lionel was stunned, exclaiming, âMr. Freeman! What are you doing? This is evidence that proves you
didnât harm Ms. Sheena!â
Elijah remained indifferent. âIf I show her this evidence, the tiny bit of trust Iâve managed to build with her will be completely gone.â
Lionel did not understand and watched the shredded papers with a pang of heartache. He had worked hard to gather this information.
Elijah did not even glance at the pile of paper. âWhen you handed me this evidence just now, I realized that with Sheena and her brothersâ power, thereâs no way they couldnât find out the truth. Itâs not that she didnât investigate. She had already convinced herself that I was the culprit.â
Elijah sighed, realizing that Sheena truly did not trust him at all. Rebuilding her trust, bit by bit, was
no easy task.
âMoreover, if I had given her this evidence, she would have known about everything Iâve been doing behind her backâinvestigating and meeting with Leon. She would be even more suspicious of me in
the future.â
Lionel understood now, feeling sympathy for him. âSo, youâll have to take the blame for this alone⦠Leon deserves more than a hundred lashes. He shouldâve gotten two hundred!â
Half a month later.
The Freeman Group gradually recovered from a period of decline, and various projects started to pick up. When Sarah handed over the data to Sheena, she was pleased.
âConsidering the current situation, the Freeman Groupâs financial status has stabilized. We can start planning to approach the Carver Group for the outstanding payment.â
Sarah nodded. âMiss, whatâs your plan?â
Sheena smirked. âFrom now on, snatch any business within our capacity that the Carver Group is
eyeing!â
Suddenly, the assistant knocked and said, âMs. Sheena, Mr. Upton is here.â
âGot it.â
Sarah left the office, exchanging polite nods with Colin, who had just entered. Once Sarah was completely out, Colin sat opposite Sheenaâs workspace.
Sheena did not even look at Colin. âWhat brings you here today, Colin?â
Colin smiled, blushing slightly. âSheena, did you forget? My birthday is in three days.â

Indeed, Sheena had completely forgotten. âSo, you want me to wish you a happy birthday in advance? I remember your parents used to host a party for your birthday. How long are you planning to stay in
Svelton this time?â
Colinâs blush deepened. âThose were things from when I was a kid. My parents said unless I bring someone back, thereâs no need for me to return.â
Sheena instantly understood his motive for coming today. âYouâre the beloved heir of the Upton family. How could Uncle and Auntie not want you home? Donât use these tricks to fool me.â
Being exposed did not discourage Colin. Instead, he said, âI know you wonât return to Svelton for now, but how about coming out for dinner with me in three days? Consider it your birthday gift to me. Shouldnât be a problem, right?â
As a friend, his request was not unreasonable, and Sheena had no reason to refuse, so she agreed.
Meanwhile, Lionel entered Elijahâs office on the 23rd floor, reporting, âMr. Freeman, I heard Mr. Upton is here again, having a private conversation with Ms. Sheena on the top floor.â
âPrivate conversation?â Elijah frowned.
Whenever Colin showed up, trouble was sure to follow.
Elijah quickly stood up, pushed open the office door, and took the elevator to the top floor.
Colin had just left Sheenaâs office and was waiting for the elevator to go down. As the doors opened, they came face to face.
Colin smiled and spoke first, âMr. Freeman, what a coincidence.â
Elijahâs face remained cold, and his tone indifferent. âItâs no coincidence. I came here to find you.â
