Wait, She’s a Billionaire (Sheena Lawson) novel Chapter 290

Chapter 290 

Elijah cleared his dry throat and observed Sheena’s expression. Seeing no significant change, he continued speaking- 

“At the gala, Bethany was just the executor. There’s someone orchestrating things in the background. This person is very cunning, calculating every move accurately. While Bethany claimed to ally with me, she secretly prepared for my refusal and attempted to silence me.” 

His burning throat protested as he spoke too much, sending him into a coughing fit. Sheena casually handed him a cup, letting him pour water himself, and teased, “Aren’t you afraid I might suspect you of intentionally revealing the cooperation?” 

“If you want the truth, I won’t hide it from you,” Elijah responded. 

Whether she believed him or not was not something he could decide. 

“Is that so?” Sheena smiled, propping her chin with one hand, and leaning on her knee. She looked at him with a mischievous grin and added, “Then I want to know what happened to Sawyer, the real story.” 

After contemplating, Elijah confessed, “He offended me, so I had Lionel hurt him.” 

Lionel? 

Sheena furrowed her brow, sensing there might be more to the story. Nevertheless, given Elijah’s honesty, Sheena made a rough guess that it was probably related to Howard. 

Despite setting aside this matter, whether Bethany was the executor or the mastermind, Sheena felt uneasy if she did not settle the score. 

Rising from her seat, she smoothed her velvet skirt. “Since it was your man who harmed my bodyguard, your people will have to handle my business. I’m going to make the Carver family pay for what they’ve done!” 

Her bright eyes sparkled with a cold, arrogant confidence. 

Elijah, staring at the glimmer in her eyes, was momentarily stunned. By the time he regained his composure, Sheena had already grabbed the black coat from the rack, preparing to leave. He quickly followed suit, contacting Lionel, and gathering Logan and a few others to act as her temporary workforce for the day. 

Upon their arrival, Sheena took a quick glance and deemed it insufficient. 

Elijah explained, “Sheena, they’ve all fought for their lives and are very skilled. Besides, just Lionel alone is enough to deal with the Carver mansion’s bunch of useless bodyguards.” 

Sheena thought that was still not enough. After all, she was caught in a fight against 40 men with just three on her side a couple of days ago. She wanted Bethany to feel the overwhelming force of this imposing group fully. 

However, Ford and Paul were still in the hospital. Meanwhile, John and Sawyer seemed to be injured. Hence, she decided to call Sarah. 

“Get some people from the organization with a good foundation in fighting. I’m about to get into a fight!” 

Chapter 290 

Elijah, standing nearby, overheard and caught onto the mention of an organization. 

Soon enough, Sheena gathered a formidable force of 50 people. With Elijah’s men and herself included, they added up to 58. As they walked, the ground trembled beneath their imposing 

presence. 

The sight of this force from afar was downright intimidating. Sheena was satisfied and ready to set out when she suddenly felt someone grabbing her wrist. 

Elijah stared at her with a gloomy expression, asking, “You’re not taking me?” 

Sheena gently patted his pale cheek and chuckled. “Be good. You’re still sick. This is too much for you. 

Even though Sheena did not mean it that way, those words deeply pricked Elijah’s nerves, especially when she said it in front of so many people. 

Elijah, with a solemn face, emphasized, “I can do it!”
