Wait She s a Billionaire ( Sheena Lawson ) Chapter 523

Chapter 523

Nathaniel was bound by heavy handcuffs and ankle restraints, and each step he took was slow.

His exposed forearms and neck showed bruising, the skin roughened. Moreover, his once exquisite and alluring appearance was now completely transformed. Apart from those still remarkably unique deep blue eyes, Sheena could hardly recognize him.

Nathaniel locked eyes with her through the glass, picking up the phone.

Sheena followed suit, placing the receiver to her ear.

“Nana, long time no see. You seem surprised. Have you already forgotten me?” Nathaniel teased.

However, Sheena remained expressionless, her voice icy. “I didn’t come here for a reunion. If you have nothing to say, I’m leaving.”

Nathaniel playfully smirked and clicked his tongue twice. “You truly are heartless, giving all your attention to that little pet of yours.”

Seeing Sheena about to hang up, Nathaniel hurriedly spoke, “Alright, alright! I’ll get to the point!”

His eyes narrowed slightly, a sly and eerie smile playing on his lips as he spoke in a husky tone, Nana, don’t underestimate me just because I’m trapped here. I know better than anyone else that your current fiance, Elliot, is none other than your ex–husband from Farlem, your little pet, isn’t that right?”

Sheena was taken aback but maintained an indifferent smile. “Where did you hear that? I don’t even

know about it.”

“No need to pretend. I’m just amazed that he had the audacity to propose to you despite carrying such

a serious illness.”

Sheena’s expression instantly became grim, slamming her hand on the table. “What else do you know? What serious illness does he have?”

Nathaniel grinned mysteriously. “I know everything about him, and besides me, there are probably very few who know these things.”

“As an exchange for these secrets, what are your conditions?” Sheena quickly regained her composure, her mind sharp.

Nathaniel applauded and praised, “You’re still as clever and charming as ever! Talking to you is always effortless.”

Sheena’s eyes revealed her disgust, making no attempt to hide it. “I don’t want to hear nonsense. Out

with it.”

Nathaniel grinned vickedly, his deep blue eyes unreadable.

Drawing closer to the microphone, he whispered in a barely audible voice, “Have Corey bail me out,

break off the engagement with Elliot, and marry me.”

Sheena frowned deeply at his words.

“I can arrange for Corey to bail you out, but apart from that, forget about any other conditions,” Sheena stated firmly.

Nathaniel’s eyes drooped slightly, a hint of hurt in them. “It seems you really care about him. Don’t worry. I just need shelter. After my incident, Romello has the entire Nicholls family under his control. He’s willing to give up on me, his brother, for power and reputation. I need the Lawson family’s protection to make a comeback.”

Sheena remained unmoved, her expression ice–cold. “You’re too simplistic in thinking I can decide on breaking off my engagement with Elliot.”

“Nana, don’t joke with me. You are the apple of the Lawson family’s eye. Ending the engagement is just a small loss of money. If you truly want to end it, I believe Corey would be willing to do so for your sake.”

Sheena pursed her red lips, choosing to stay silent.

Nathaniel continued, “Besides, aren’t you curious about his secrets? I guarantee you’d want to know. Bail me out, break off the engagement, and marry me. These are my conditions, and it’s non- negotiable.”

Sheena lowered her head, remaining silent for a long time. Her palm clenched tightly, and the blue veins were clearly visible beneath her fair and delicate skin.

“So, have you decided?”

“I have,” Sheena replied, meeting Nathaniel’s eyes with unwavering determination. “I hate being controlled by others the most! It’s impossible for me to break off my engagement with Elliot and marry you!”

Elliot would surely be hurt if he found out she was ending the engagement to marry Nathaniel. After all, Nathaniel had harmed Elliot in Farlem before.
