Wait She s a Billionaire ( Sheena Lawson ) Chapter 383

Chapter 383

It was Elijah’s voice.

Sheena sighed in relief, but she soon became angry. “Why didn’t you answer the phone?”

Elijah’s tone carried a hint of exhaustion and sleepiness. “I was asleep. Why are you still awake at this hour? Did something happen?”

“Nothing happened. I just couldn’t sleep.”

“Well… Should I keep you company through the night?”

“Mm,” Sheena responded simply. Recalling the dream from earlier, she sternly reminded Elijah, “Remember, you’re not allowed to go anywhere these two days. Also, set your phone to the loudest ringtone. As long as it’s my call, you must answer it at once regardless of the time.”

Elijah remained silent for a moment before softly saying, “Got it. Are you sleepy now?”

“Not really.”

“Do you want me to tell you a story?”

“No.”

“Are you hungry? Send me your location, and I’ll order some late–night snacks for you.”

“I’m not hungry.”

Elijah was at a loss for words. Sheena was such a conversation stopper, and there was no way to continue chatting!

Since Sheena could not fall asleep, she let Elijah tell her a story. Elijah found some stupid jokes online and told them one by one. Due to his poor storytelling skills, the atmosphere turned awkward.

However, under his hypnotic voice, Sheena unconsciously fell asleep..

The next day, Sheena stuck to the plan. However, Barrett stayed at La’Portella Manor the entire day without leaving the house. As the evening approached, Sheena grew impatient and had Howard personally lure him out.

After another half an hour of waiting, Barrett finally emerged with Howard. Little did he expect that, just as he stepped out of his mansion, someone struck him on the head with a stick, rendering him unconscious.

Chapter 383

When Barrett woke up again, he found himself tied to a chair and his mouth sealed with duct tape with a table placed in front of him. The surroundings were dimly lit and enclosed, resembling a basement.

Confused, he struggled and mumbled through the tape.

The basement door opened, and a woman soon approached him. With light makeup and sharp, sparkling eyes, she was a sight to behold.

Barrett, after a moment of surprise, stopped struggling and started shouting when he saw her.

Sheena observed his reaction, smirking. “Uncle Barret, it looks like you’ve been keeping yourself updated with my recent photos. After so many years, I’ve become quite beautiful, yet you managed to recognize me at first sight.”

She walked to the chair opposite Barrett’s and signaled Ford.

Ford removed the tape from Barrett’s mouth, causing Barrett pain as it pulled on his beard.

After taking a moment to recover, Barrett glared at Sheena. “I’m your uncle! How could you let Howard trick me out here and then kidnap me? Is this how you treat your elders?”

Sheena rested her chin in her hand, laughing casually. “Uncle Barrett, it’s not the first day you’ve known I can be unruly. Besides, I have a great attitude! As an elder, you’ve lost your virtue and respect long ago.”

Barrett squinted at her. “Lost my virtue? I’ve always stayed out of family matters, living as a lazy, idle man. Where did I lose my virtue?”

“Uncle Barrett, take a look at this,” Sheena said, turning to Ford.

Ford handed over Nathaniel’s statement to Barrett.

“Uncle Barrett, I won’t make it too difficult for you. Read through Nathaniel’s statement and see if it has anything to do with you.”
