Chapter 419
Colin felt unfairly accused but facing Elliot’s questioning and the act of forcibly taking Sheena away, he was quite displeased..
“Mr. Jenkins suspects me of drugging her? I disdain such despicable acts. Sheena was just in a bad mood, and I was keeping her company with a drink. Now that she’s drunk, I intend to take her back to rest.”
He stepped forward, attempting to retrieve Sheena, but Elliot dogged him, holding her tightly.
“No need to trouble yourself, Mr. Upton. I’ll take care of her.”
Colin’s expression gradually hardened. “Mr. Jenkins, do you also have feelings. for Sheena?”
“Yes.”
Colin was irritated. Just when Elijah had left, Elliot came swooping in instead.
“Isn’t it a bit inappropriate to hold her like this, Mr. Jenkins? Besides, Sheena has just returned to Svelton and doesn’t know you well. We share a long–standing relationship, so it might be better if you let me take care of her.”
Colin was prepared to insist, but Lionel stepped before him, blocking his way.
“Mr. Upton, there’s no need to trouble yourself. Ms. Sheena and Mr. Jenkins are engaged. It’s only reasonable for him to look after her.”
“Engaged?”
When did this happen?
Why did he not hear any news about it?
Seeing his confusion, Lionel explained, “It was confirmed last night when Mr. Santiago Jenkins personally visited the Lawson family. The news will be officially announced at Ms. Sheena’s welcome banquet. Please understand, Mr. Upton, whot the outsider is here.”
Colin’s face turned pale. He had not expected the Jenkins family to move so quickly, and Albert had agreed directly!
Elliot was Sheena’s fiancé, and he was just a friend. In this situation, he couldn’t gain the upper hand.
Seeing Colin no longer blocking their way, Elliot carried Sheena and prepared to leave.

Sheena nestled on his broad chest, smelling the familiar tobacco scent. Almost instinctively, her hands tightly wrapped around his neck.
“Don’t go. You said
You
won’t leave me…”
Colin heard it, too, and smirked, “Mr. Jenkins, it seems Sheena would rather go with me.”
Elliot stiffened, looking down at Sheena, who was unconscious but still wore a distressed expression.
This morning, she mentioned having a man she liked.
Was it Colin?
She even came to Hedone Bar with Colin. Moreover, she had good alcohol tolerance and high alertness, so how did she end up defenseless and drunk like this?
It seemed she truly cared about Colin.
Then again, why Colin of all people…
Elliot suppressed the stifling feeling, concealing the pain in his eyes. In a hoarse voice, he said, “Lionel, please ask Mr. Upton to leave.”
Lionel stepped forward to escort Colin away.
Colin was unwilling to accept this. “Mr. Jenkins, you shouldn’t force her to do anything she doesn’t want. You should respect her choice and let me take her to rest.”
Elliot turned around, casting a cold, disdainful glance at him. “She’s my fiancee. Whatever I choose to do is more appropriate than anything you’d suggest.”
With this ominous statement, Elliot confidently carried Sheena away.
“Mr. Jenkins, you’ve only known her for a short time. She won’t like you! If you dare lay a finger on her, be prepared for the consequences when she wakes up!” Colin continued shouting anxiously from behind.
Elliot chose to ignore him, striding away with Sheena in his arms.
