Wait, She’s a Billionaire (Sheena Lawson) novel Chapter 418

Chapter 418 

“Dear, say something. Are you just going to watch your daughter bully me like this? I don’t care! You have to choose between having dinner with her or me!” 

Albert found himself caught in the middle, torn between the two. 

Sheena looked at him with a sigh. His face, wrinkled with age, seemed weary. She had not been back in years, and her father had aged a lot. As a daughter, she did. not want to cause him distress, but coexisting peacefully with Lauren was challenging. 

“Forget it. I don’t want to eat.” 

She stood up, adjusted her dress, and walked out, not heading upstairs but toward the entrance. 

“Sweetheart, it’s late. Where are you going?” 

Albert called after her, but she left without turning back. His beloved daughter was upset, leaving Albert feeling guilty. 

Lauren shrugged indifferently. “She’s a grown woman. She won’t get into trouble. Don’t spoil her. Let’s eat.” 

“Lauren! I don’t even know what to say to you!” 

Albert got angry but was too frustrated to continue scolding Lauren. Feeling nauseous, he ate a few bites and went upstairs. 

Lauren did not mind it. After all, her appetite was excellent. 

Since it was Sheena’s first night back home, Albert had instructed the chef to prepare ten exquisite dishes. Proud to win a round against Sheena, Lauren savored each dish prepared for her. 

Tonight, Sheena’s mood hit rock bottom. She did not want to return to the Lawson estate and trouble Albert further. Instead, she decided to take John and Sawyer to Hedone Bar, renting a private room to drown her sorrows in alcohol. Among the bodyguards, only Ford had received guidance from Howard and could persuade Sheena. The other two, currently standing outside the door, were worried she might overindulge and become intoxicated. 

They were contemplating whether to call Ford for help when Colin happened to pass by in the hallway. 

“Is Sheena inside?” 

The two guards exchanged glances but did not respond. 

Colin did not find it awkward at all. He quietly opened the door, took a glance, and saw Sheena drinking alone, indulging in liquor with high alcohol content. Her face was flushed, lying on the sofa in an intoxicated haze, but she kept on drinking. 

“Getting drunk is harmful to your health. Let me go in and talk to her.” 

The two guards had no better solution, and since Colin was Sheena’s friend, they did not stop him, thinking maybe he could persuade her. 

Colin entered the room, sat beside Sheena, and gently advised, “Sheena, stop drinking. You’re already drunk. How about I take you home?” 

With half–closed and hazy eyes, feeling dizzy, Sheena was truly intoxicated. 

“Eli, I miss you. Don’t leave, come back, please?” 

Her voice was faint, and Colin, leaning closer, could barely make out her murmured words. 

Eli? 

Was she calling for Elijah? 

Suppressing his own discomfort, Colin comforted her, “Sheena, I won’t leave you. I’m not going anywhere.” 

Sheena did not respond further; she fell completely onto the sofa and drifted asleep.
