Wait, She’s a Billionaire ( Sheena Lawson )
Chapter 341
Nathaniel was stunned, and his expression turned serious as he explained, âIâve been busy dealing with Special Investigation Department matters during the day, so I didnât inquire about last nightâs case. I genuinely didnât know, butâ¦â
He stopped midâsentence, looking at Sheena and apologizing sincerely, âIâm sorry, Nana. I was upset with you last night, so I didnât stop Maurice from taking you away, causing you to suffer at the police station all night. But you have to believe me, I havenât changed. Iâm always the same Nate you knew!â
As he spoke excitedly, he reached out to hold Sheenaâs hand.
âI certainly believe you.â Sheena smiled, calmly retracting her hand, and elegantly adjusting her hair as she continued, âNate, my money has been with the Carver Group for too long. It doesnât feel right to leave it uncollected. Iâll need your help with this matter too.â
Nathaniel willingly agreed, âOf course! As long as itâs something you want to do, Iâll help.â
Sheena smiled sweetly, appearing coy.
The meal ended at 8 p.m., and Sheena declined Nathanielâs offer to send her home. Instead, she returned to Ocean Avenue with Paul and Ian.
The moment she got into the back seat of the car, her warm smile froze, and her expression turned cold in an instant. The atmosphere in the car became tense, enough to send shivers down anyoneâs spine.
Paul and Ian sensed her displeasure and dared not make a sound.
Upon reaching Ocean Avenue, Sheena was surprised to find the living room lights on. She asked John and learned that Howard was there.
When Sheena entered, she found Howard sitting on the sofa with a strange expression.
âHoward, whatâs wrong?â
Howard pointed to his phone, whispering, âItâs Corey. He called you, but you didnât answer. So, he came to me.

Sheena was shocked, feeling her heart pounding. Despite being fearless in most situations, she was terrified of Corey. Moreover, she could tell from Howardâs grim expression that Corey contacting her was likely not good news.
Sheenaâs legs almost gave way, and she pleaded, âHoward, donât call him yet. Let me prepare myself.â
âSheena Lawson.â
Coreyâs imposing and stern voice echoed from Howardâs phone.
Damn it! The call had been on speaker the whole time!
Starting with her full name meant Corey was genuinely furious.
Since there was no escaping this, Sheena reluctantly took the phone, her voice sweet and trembling as she said, âCorey, Iâm sorry. Please donât be angryâ¦â
âWhat are you sorry for?â
On the other end of the line, Coreyâs voice was icy. On the sidelines, Howard held his breath, not daring to say a word.
Sheena pondered for a while. Honestly, she did not know what she did wrong.
âAnything and everything you think I did wrong.â
âSheena Lawson!â
A furious scolding followed.
Sheena immediately knelt.
âCorey, Iâm really sorry! Iâve already kneeled. Isnât that enough?â
The man on the other end remained silent, suppressing his anger. Finally, he said, âHow many times were you brought to the police station? It was forgivable before, but this time, you brawled in a bar with so many staff around. Sheena, youâre really something! What if that person you angered decides to fight back? What if you get hurt again?â
Sheena pouted, feeling indignant. However, she noticed Howard signaling her not to add fuel to the fire.
Softening her tone, she said, âI was wrong, and I wonât do it again.â
To hell with that!
She did not do anything wrong, and she would definitely do it again!
Corey sighed, somewhat helpless. After a twoâsecond pause, he resumed his cold tone. âSince youâre already kneeling, kneel for an hour. Howard will watch Anuchiesti â
