Wait, She’s a Billionaire ( Sheena Lawson )
Chapter 524
Elliot had sacrificed so much for her, and she did not want to let him down, nor did she want him to
misunderstand her.
Nathanielâs smile vanished from his face. He stood there in stunned silence, seemingly not expecting Sheena to decisively reject him.
âWell, it seems you and I canât come to an agreement. Goodbye!â Sheena placed the receiver down and left without another glance.
Nathaniel, full of shock, gradually succumbed to madness. He abruptly stood up, wildly pounding on the soundproof glass, the metallic handcuffs making a clattering sound.
âSheena! Come back! Donât you want to know about his illness? He wonât live much longer! Heâs doomed, Sheena! Is a shortâlived guy really worth your effort? Iâm the most suitable man to marry you!â
Prison guards quickly intervened, swiftly subduing the frenzied Nathaniel. His head was forced to the ground, and suddenly, a fit of maniacal laughter erupted.
âSheena! Youâll come back to me sooner or later! You can only be mine in this lifetime!â
Nonetheless, the soundproof glass did its job exceptionally well, and Sheena remained oblivious to his screams, never turning back.
She sighed softly. Another avenue to learn about Elliotâs health was closed.
Perhaps, she thought, there was only one last method to try.
In the afternoon, at the Jenkins Group, a monthly board meeting was underway in the afternoon, and Elliot had been in the conference room for half an hour.
Lionel, tasked with fetching an important document, was about to return to the meeting room when a slender figure blocked him in the corridor.
Seeing Sheena, he felt a pang of anxiety.
âMs. Sheena, is there something you need? Uh, if youâre looking for Mr. Jenkins, you might have to wait a bit. Heâs still in the meeting. I need to get back to him. Excuse me.â
Lowering his hearin od bowing several times, Lionel attempted to maneuver around Sheena. However, with his and graceful determination, Sheena stepped to the right, blocking his path again.
âLionel, this
time Iâll come to you about this matter. If youâre still unwilling to reveal even a
hint, I wonât disturb your work anymore.â
âI really donât know anything. Please spare me,â Lionel pleaded, lowering his head even further, then turned and walked away, choosing a detour to the conference room.

Sheena watched his uneasy figure and suddenly spoke, âToday, I went to see Nathaniel. He claims to know, but he has conditions. He wants me to marry him before telling me the truth.â
Lionelâs steps abruptly stopped, though he did not turn around.
Sheena continued, âLionel, youâve helped unravel many misunderstandings between Elliot and me. Youâve witnessed how we ended up where we are now. If you donât speak up, I can only agree to Nathanielâs conditions. Is that the outcome you want to see?â
Lionel struggled internally, clenching the documents tightly. âMr. Jenkins has imposed a gag order. Itâs a matter of organizational discipline. I canâtâ¦â
âDonât worry. Iâll cover for you and ensure he doesnât find out it was you,â Sheena approached, softening her tone. âHeâs sick, and enduring it alone is too painful. So, by telling me, youâre helping him.â
Lionel wavered and eventually said, âFollow me.â
Sheena followed him into his office.
Lionel closed the door behind them and asked her in a hushed tone, âDo you remember the sulfuric acid incident at Eros Bar over half a year ago?â
