Wait She s a Billionaire ( Sheena Lawson ) Chapter 301

Chapter 301

All eyes turned to Elijah.

Unfazed, Elijah casually quipped, “Nothing much, just marveling at Captain Maurice’s skill in flattery.”

The implication was a subtle mockery of Maurice’s deliberate praise, and there was a hint of disdain toward Nathaniel.

Locked in a silent exchange of glares, sparks flew between the two men. The air thickened with tension, creating an atmosphere so tense that others dared not interfere.

Sheena tapped the table, reminding them, “Let’s focus on the matter at hand. My time is valuable.

The two men reluctantly withdrew their hostile glances and redirected their attention to the proceedings. Nathaniel scrutinized the documents once more before addressing Melania and Bethany.

“Madam Carver, if you accuse Sheena of being the mastermind, you should present reasonable evidence. If you can’t, I’ll have to release her.”

Melania bit her lip. Yesterday, Sheena’s bodyguards had destroyed all evidence before leaving. Besides Bethany’s injuries and the testimonies of household staff, she had nothing substantial to offer. She had hoped that with connections at the Farlem police station, she could discreetly pin the blame on Sheena.

However, Nathaniel’s sudden intervention left Melania helpless.

Frustrated, she looked at Sheena and exclaimed, “Don’t think that just because you have influential backers, you can do as you please. Your recklessness will catch up with you sooner or later!

Sheena idly played with her hair. In response to Melania’s words, she raised an eyebrow and said, “Madam Carver, you’re right. As for when I’ll slip up, that remains uncertain, but the golden days of the Carver family are surely coming to an end.”

“Sheena!” Melania was infuriated.

The Carver Group was the fruition of her family’s efforts over generations.

She gritted her teeth and demanded, “Even if you won’t admit to intentionally harming Bethany or damaging my family’s cars, the fact that you took away our orange tree is undeniable. It’s bound to be found in your residence, and you think you can deny that too?”

“Oh, that thing,” Sheena pondered momentarily, then openly admitted, “Madam Carver, you invited me to the Carver Mansion as a guest. I found that orange tree appealing and took it as a souvenir. If you disapprove, I can return it.”

Like hell she would return it!

She devoured all her favorite fruits!

“Since you took it, then pay for it!” Melania insisted, trying to extort Sheena for eating her

expensive fruits.

“Sure,” Sheena agreed without hesitation.

Melania was taken aback by her straight forwardness and added, “I want cash!”

That tree was expensive, and she wanted several times its value!

“Sure, let’s do as you please,” Sheena replied casually and texted John. She then turned to Maurice, saying, “Captain Maurice, Madam Carver wants cash. I’ve instructed the bodyguards to bring the money over. When they arrive, make sure your people let them through.”

Seeing the mention of “bodyguards,” Maurice wondered how many were coming. However, pressured by Nathaniel’s presence, he hesitated to ask and could only nod reluctantly.

“Alright, you can trust me.”

In the few minutes of waiting for the bodyguards, the interrogation room returned to a quiet state. Nathaniel and Sheena locked eyes from a distance.

Nathaniel smiled gently, his deep blue eyes exuding a charming allure that seemed to speak to the heart.

Sheena, on the other hand, remained indifferent.

Elijah, keenly observing their eye contact, wondered if there was a story between them. He noticed the complexity in Sheena’s gaze every time she looked at Nathaniel. When Colin left, she showed no reaction, so… could she actually have feelings for Nathaniel?

Feeling a lump in his chest, Elijah coughed forcefully, hoping to grab their attention.

The loud and abrupt sound caught even caught Melania, Bethany, and Maurice’s notice. However, Sheena
