Chapter 1091 Corey and Barbara froze.
However, Sheena was now the head of the household, so inviting a friend to stay at their mansion for a couple of days was completely fine..
Since it all depended on Anneâs response, the three of them looked to her.
Facing their gazes, Anne smiled innocently, her face full of anticipation. âSure, | really like Ms. Lawsonâs arrangement. Iâd be happy to stay with them.â
Corey remained silent.
Since he spent reading scriptures all night, he had become much calmer than before, lacking the previous explosive temper.
Barbara politely smiled. âSince youâre Sheenaâs friend, we'll definitely arrange everything. Where is your luggage, Ms. Windsor?
I'll have the bodyguards pick it up.â
âThank you,â Anne said, moving closer and happily holding her hands. âI donât have any siblings, but you're so friendly. Itâs as if youâre my real sister-in-law.â
Feeling a bit uncomfortable with Anne holding her hands, Barbara chuckled awkwardly.
âIt's nothing. If you need anything else these days, just let me know.â
âOkay, thank you.â
Sheena listened quietly as Anne tried to cotton up to Barbara, sipping her third cup of tea.
She kept her gaze fixed on Anne, lost in her thoughts as she drank the tea without really tasting it.
While Anne was engrossed in conversation with Barbara, Sheena suddenly addressed Corey, âYour previous punishment will be moved up to the afternoon, but you can skip the whip. Just kneel in the altar room and read some scriptures to improve your character.â
Corey was taken aback.
Sheena had ordered him to stop his voluntary punishment a long time ago.
Why did she suddenly want him to continue?
He did not understand her intentions, but her cold and distant attitude with each word pricked his heart.
âOkay. You're the head of the household. I'll follow your order.â
Sheena glanced coldly at the time and commented, âItâs afternoon now. Arenât you going to the altar room?â
Corey immediately got up, his back straight, and left the mansion without looking back.
The altar room was in Albert's old mansion, so Corey had to go there.
Seeing him leave, Anna wanted to follow him and asked, âWhere is he going?â
Sheena replied indifferently, âGetting punished. Itâs the Lawson familyâs business, so you donât need to follow. Barbara will accompany you for the next couple of days. Iâll go check on him.â
With that, she got up and left the mansion.
Once cutside, Sheena called over George, the butler left to watch over Albertâs old mansion.
âMiss, what are your orders?â
