Wait, She’s a Billionaire ( Sheena Lawson )
Chapter 556
Meredith led the opposition, shouting, âNo way! Our routine is a group dance. Missing one person means we have to rearrange the positions. With just ten minutes left to the party, we donât have time for that. Moreover, going on stage with a messedâup routine will surely be embarrassing.â
âThatâs right! Itâs better not to perform at all than to ruin our image!â
âAbsolutely! Ms. Lawson, please help us!â
After contemplating for a while, Sheena called their manager, Jaime, aside for a private conversation.
âHow much did you negotiate for the appearance fee with the Upton family for this event?â
Jaime replied, âThe Upton family was generous, agreeing to 7.5 million. If we breach the contract now, the penalty is ten times that amount, totaling 75 million. Ms. Lawson, please reconsider!â
Sheena scoffed. âIâm not trying to breach the contract. Does Katie think she deserves my money?â
Jaime puzzled, âMs. Lawson, whatâs your plan?â
Without answering. Sheena stopped a servant passing by in the hallway. âGet Katie here. I need to discuss something with her in person.â
The servant hesitated, saying, âThe party is about to start, and sheâs probably in her room doing touchâups. Sheâs not receiving guests.â
âTell her that if she doesnât come, Iâll announce in front of all the media and guests that the party will be delayed until she decides to come and resolve the issue.â
Forced delays were a significant taboo, and the servant was intimidated by the sternness in Sheenaâs eyes. Hence, she quickly ran upstairs.
Within a few minutes, Katie came down.
Then, she asked in an irritated tone, âWhatâs the matter?â
Jaime stepped forward to explain, âMs. Upton, one of our team membersâ Costumes got damaged, and we canât proceed with the performance. As the costume was provided by your side to match your party theme, could you please allow them..
Interrupting Jaime, Katie scoffed. âThese costumes were custom made, and voe handed them to you well in advance. You ruined one, and now you have the nerve to come to me?â
She snorted and looked at Sheena provocatively, âif they canât perform, just leave my house and pay the penalty for breaching the contract,â
Jaime, unable to handle the situation, looked to Sheena for assistance
Sheena chuckled and threw the pile of torn fabric onto Katie.
Katie was instantly angered and backed out of the way. âSheenal Do you even know how expenses

this gown is? If you ruin it, I wonât let you off!â
Sheenaâs smirk deepened, her tone dripping with sarcasm as she responded, âOh, it seems youâre aware that this performance costume got splashed with red ink.â
Katie was stunned but quickly regained her composure. âWhy would I know about that? Even if itâs not stained with red ink, itâs still filthy and beneath me!â
As she spurted the last few words, she gritted her teeth, her gaze vaguely pointing toward Phoebe.
Sheena frowned, uninterested in further argument. Instead, she raised her phone to Katieâs eye level.
She showed a video of all the members surrounding the damaged costume, acting helpless and distressed according to Sheenaâs prearranged script.
Katie was puzzled. âWhat are you trying to say?â
Sheena smirked, âWith only ten minutes left until their performance at the Upton familyâs party if the Upton family doesnât send the replacement costume, this video will be broadcast on the large screen in the garden and will appear online overnight. Iâve even had a little essay written, subtly pointing fingers at the Upton family.â
Katie scoffed. She was not afraid at all.
Destroying Phoebeâs costume was just an appetizer, and the main event she prepared had yet to come.
After all, Katie had celebrated tons of birthday parties, and she was getting bored of it. In truth, she planned to use this birthday banquet to settle scores with all the people she despised.
That would be the true payoff to her planning!
âSheena, you underestimate me. Do you think I care about these things? So what if the Upton familyâs stock market wavers for a few days? If the Upton family loses some money, weâll just make it back in
the future!â
Chin slightly raised, Katie continued with a triumphant tone, âAfter all, the costume was provided by my people. If they canât protect it, itâs their problem. If you donât want Phoebe to embarrass herself on stage, just breach the contract!â
Sheena narrowed her beautiful eyes, observing Katieâs reaction.
Compared to half a year ago, Katie seemed more cunning this time.
Was someone advising her behind the scenes?
