Wait She s a Billionaire ( Sheena Lawson ) Chapter 448

Chapter 448

The two of them took their seats, and Elliot began his inquiry with a serious tone, what’s the urgency? Has something major happened?”

“Uncle Peter,

Peter stood up, bowing slightly to Santiago before starting to explain, “Late last night, someone bypassed the surveillance cameras, climbed over the wall into Stanley’s mansion, knocked out the bodyguards, and attacked Stanley. The methods used were vicious. If it weren’t for a guard waking up early and saving Stanley from excessive bleeding, he wouldn’t have survived!”

As Peter recounted the events, he glared at Sheena, who seemed indifferent.

Elliot appeared unbothered and asked, “Where is he?”

“He’s severely injured and still unconscious. But when the guards saved him last night, he was conscious enough to claim that Ms. Lawson and Lionel attacked him,” Peter explained with a pained

expression.

He then looked at Santiago and added, “Dad, I’m here today seeking justice. How can Elliot act

recklessly, harming his own family members at will, just because he’s the head of the Jenkins family?

Elliot’s face remained cold and proud. However, his face suddenly turned pale just as he was about to

stand up to speak, and he frowned in pain as he covered the wound on his chest.

Sheena reached out to support him, asking, “What’s wrong?”

With a pale face, he looked at her and whispered, “I aggravated… the injury.”

Sheena was aware of his scheme. After all, he did not say a word during their passionate night. Yet, he was saying his wound was hurting now?

Sheena played along, speaking gently, “You just had surgery, and your body is weak. Speak less. Let

me handle this.”

Peter was dissatisfied, saying, “Ms. Lawson, you’re not part of the Jenkins family. Being an observer is fine, but participating in family discussion might not be appropriate.”

Sheena completely ignored Peter. She stood up and faced Santiago, saying tenderly, “Grandpa Santiago, I’m Eli’s fiancee. Naturally, I’m almost a Jenkins family member. Eli is seriously injured and shouldn’t speak much. I did participate in the matter last night, and on his behalf, I’d like to speak. Is that okay?”

Santiago was pleased to hear her saying she was almost a Jenkins family member.

“Of cours

course, you can. With me and Eli by your side, no one will dare to bully you.’

“Thank

you, Grandpa Santiago.” Sheena smiled sweetly and turned to Peter. “I admit involvement in the events last night, but…”

Peter interrupted her before she could finish her sentence, “Ms. Lawson, I admire your direct

confession, but as Elliot’s fiancee, how could you sneak into Stanley’s bedroom late at night? Imagine what would happen if the matter spread!”

The expressions of everyone in the room changed. Naomi, wanting to stand up and speak for Sheena, was stopped by her father, Roger.

Even though everyone was staring at her, Sheena smiled.

Peter, confused, asked, “What are you smiling about?”

“Even the dogs raised in the Lawson family know to crouch down and listen carefully when the master speaks. Mr. Peter, you’re almost forty, yet you don’t seem to understand that interrupting others is extremely impolite. Isn’t that a shame?” Sheena said, then turned her head to Elliot, winking at him.

Elliot’s heart was almost melted by her charming gesture.

Peter was furious. How dare she compare him unfavorably to a dog from the Lawson family!

Yet Sheena maintained an innocent and naive expression.

If Peter were to argue with such a junior, he would appear petty.

Naomi, in the serious atmosphere, giggled, attracting everyone’s attention.

She cleared her throat and said embarrassedly, “Sorry, I just couldn’t help it.”

Santiago tapped his cane, redirecting everyone’s focus, and said, “Sheena, please continue.”

“Although I participated in it, I only sent Lionel to teach Stanley a lesson. I was personally at the hospital, watching over Eli. I don’t know where Mr. Peter got the information about me entering Stanley’s room, but words should be backed by solid evidence.”

Peter retorted, “Even if you don’t admit to sneaking into Stanley’s room last night, the fact remains that you sent someone to harm him, which you have acknowledged.”

“Yes, but why don’t you ask me why I dealt with him? Yesterday, Eli went on a mission, and Stanley maliciously sent people to spread rumors that I was going to break off the engagement. This almost cost Eli his life, and he had to be rushed to the operating room late at night. Shouldn’t Stanley be dealt with for that?”

She presented her case with surprising confidence, and some members of the Jenkins family found her reasoning quite compelling.

Only Peter sneered, “You claim Stanley sent someone to harm Elliot. Where’s the evidence?”

Elliot glanced at Lionel, standing outside the hall, and in a weak but resolute tone, he said, “Uncle Peter, if the evidence is what you want, I’ll provide it.”
