Wait, She’s a Billionaire ( Sheena Lawson )
Chapter 557
Who could be helping her?
For some reason, Sheilaâs face appeared in her mindâ¦.
That woman seemed to know a lot about her past in Farlem.
Seeing Sheena remain silent, Katie bragged, âWhatâs the matter, Sheena? Found out your tough tactics donât work on me? Feeling a bit uneasy, arenât you?â
Sheenaâs aura did not diminish due to Katieâs provocations. If anything, it became more intense.
She elegantly replied, âI love a good challenge. Since you donât attach great importance to the matter, letâs turn this party into a show. But I believe your family canât take it as lightly as you do.â
She checked the time and continued, âEight more minutes to your birthday celebration. If it turns into a joke among the elite families, letâs see if your parents will really let this slide.â
âSheena, youâre intentionally making trouble for me!â
Katieâs expression twisted with anger.
Both stood their ground, displaying unwavering determination.
In front of Anita and Jaime, Katie could not easily back down.
Until Colinâs voice echoed from the corridorâ¦
âKatie, Sheena, whatâs going on?â
Sheena remained composed, leaning gracefully against the doorframe.
Colin looked at Katie, who remained silent.
Finally, Jaime stepped forward, quickly explaining the situation to him.
After hearing the details, Colin said with a polite smile, âItâs not a big deal. Today is Katieâs birthday. Thereâs no need for hostilities. I remember Katie has other customâmade performance costumes
stored in the storeroom.â
He turned to a servant, instructing, âCheck the storeroom immediately and provide new sets of costumes for all the members. Be quick.â
âYes, Mr. Upton.â
Katie felt disgruntled but said nothing, rolling her eyes a few times, and then walked away.
Colin was still smiling warmly like a courteous gentleman.
He apologized to the girls in the room, âThis is an oversight by our family. Iâll personally make amends and offer a toast to each of you at the banquet later.â

âThank you, Mr. Upton, youâre so kind.â
All the girls, except Phoebe, nodded shyly, their fondness for him skyrocketing instantly.
Since Colin played the peacemaker, there was nothing Sheena could say. She turned away, and Colin quietly followed, walking beside her.
âSheena, itâs nice to finally have a private chat with you,â Colin said, trying to catch up.
Sheena ignored him completely, walking even faster.
The Upton mansion was vast, and their footsteps echoed through the wide, quiet corridors.
Colin took a deep breath, gathered his determination, and stepped before her.
âSheena, I swear this is the last time. I just canât accept it. Even if youâre determined to reject me, you should give me a reasonable explanation.â
âI admit I might not be as influential as Elliot, but where am I lacking compared to him in character and family background? Why did you choose him over me after your divorce?â
Sheena disliked this persistent behavior, especially from Colin, with whom she had talked many
times before.
Today, she decided to make him give up for good.
âColin, I donât think thereâs any aspect where you can surpass Elliot. Moreover, I donât love you! You donât love me either!â
âYou know it very well. Your feelings for me stem from childhood obsession and familiarity. Youâre fooling yourself. Even without Elliot, we could never be partners. If you keep pestering me like this, we canât even be friends anymore.â
Colin looked at her blankly, deeply hurt, his face showing defeat, but he had no words to counter.
Sheena observed his expression, her sparkling eyes were devoid of any other emotion.
She turned to leave just as urgent footsteps approached. It was a male servant from the main hall.
âMs. Lawson, Mr. Jenkins was looking for you everywhere. It seems like he has something urgent to discuss. Please come with me!â
