Wait, She’s a Billionaire (Sheena Lawson) novel Chapter 37

Chapter 37 

As Sheena observed his expression, she figured he must have also discovered the mastermind behind this incident. 

So, was he bare specifically to hold her accountable? 

Elijah remained silent as he continued to stare at Sheena. 

Instead, Leon stepped forward and said, “Ms. Sheena, you’re too harsh!” 

Despite the divorce, they were once her mother–in–law and sister–in–law. Even if they did something wrong, Sheena should not have tormented them like this! 

Leon found Jennifer much more favorable due to her kind image. 

Sheena glanced at him but did not argue. Instead, she looked at Elijah and asked, “Is that what you think too?” 

Elijah frowned. Just as he was about to reply, Faye heard the commotion at the entrance and rushed over. She clung to him while accusing Sheena angrily. 

“Eli, look at what this vicious woman did to Erin! She even ruined our house! You must send her to prison! I want her to be locked up and repent for a lifetime!” 

Elijah became increasingly annoyed. 

Everyone’s eyes were on him, seemingly waiting for his decision. 

Sheena also stared at him, calm and composed, ready for Elijah to protect Faye. 

Faye grew more triumphant, convinced that Elijah would side with her! 

She eagerly anticipated Sheena’s downfall! 

Amidst the varied gazes of the onlookers, Elijah took two steps closer to Sheena. 

The bodyguards immediately stood before Sheena, but she waved them back as she wanted to see what he would do. 

Elijah stopped in his tracks, leaving about half a meter of distance between him and Sheena. 

He sighed and slightly lowered his head toward her. 

“They were the ones who attempted to harm you first, and your revenge against the Freeman family was justifiable. I apologize for their immaturity on their behalf.” 

His words stunned everyone present! 

Even Sheena fell silent. 

She had anticipated his anger and protectiveness, but she never expected him to not only support her revenge but also apologize on their behalf. 

It was the first time she saw him being rational, responsible, and acting like a true man. 

Faye could not stand it anymore and grabbed Elijah, throwing a tantrum without caring about her surroundings. 

“You’re my son! How can you not help me and support this bitch instead? Can you bear to see 

her ruin Erin and me like this? How can you be so heartless? I don’t care! You must do something about this. Otherwise, I won’t acknowledge you as my son! You’re simply ungrateful!” 

Elijah stood still, letting her vent her anger. 

Faye later realized that Elijah was unmoved by her antics. She grew even more frustrated and tried to change at Sheena. It was then that Elijah shot a sharp look at the servants who were watching the scene unfold. 

“Madam Freeman is not in the right state of mind. Take her back to her room and call the family doctor to check on her.” 

Leon received the order and quickly arranged for the servants to take the grumbling Faye back into the mansion. 

At the same time, they carried Erin, who was lying unconscious on the ground in the garden, back into the house. 

The other servants scattered to clean up the mess. 

Only Elijah and Sheena remained outside the mansion, along with the ten bodyguards she had brought.

Sheena felt uncomfortable under his gaze, not knowing what he was thinking. Hence, she looked away. 

“I’ll let you off for what you did before and punish them lightly. Otherwise, I would have handed the evidence over to the authorities, and they would be in trouble.” 

Then, she took out the neatly arranged evidence. She took a look at it and said, “However, I’ll keep the evidence in case they try to provoke me again. I won’t hesitate to use it then.” 

Seeing her cunning smirk, Elijah could not help but smile. 

She was like a clever little fox, deceitful and ruthless. 

Sheena noticed he was also smiling and wondered what he was thinking. However, her expression instantly turned cold, and she warned, “You better keep an eye on them and make sure they behave. If they dare to provoke me again, I’ll also hold you accountable.” 

With that, she left with her bodyguards. 

After Sheena left, Elijah walked through the mess to check on Erin. 

The family doctor had arrived and was examining Erin’s injuries. 

Faye had calmed down a bit and sat beside Erin’s bed, sobbing softly. 

When she saw Elijah enter, she grabbed the hem of his clothes and pointed to Erin’s bruised and swollen knees with sadness in her eyes. 

“Look at her! Don’t you feel sorry for her? Erin is the apple of my eye, forever cherished and pampered, but that bitch hurt her! How can Erin bear such humiliation? If you don’t help her, she’ll definitely be depressed! Do you really have the heart to watch your sister suffer?” 

Faye kept rambling and crying. 

As a mother, she knew her son could not stand to see her suffering. 

Sheena had been too audacious this time, and Faye felt the need to teach that girl a lesson! 

She could not let this go! 

Elijah remained silent, staring at Erin’s gruesome knee, seemingly lost in thought.
