Wait, She’s a Billionaire (Sheena Lawson) novel Chapter 826

Chapter 826 

Sheila thought she had found a way to shake off Sheena’s bodyguards and escape for good. Yet, did she know, Elliot’s men were also keeping a close eye on her. 

Was fate really so cruel as to deny her even a single chance? 

“Sheena, Elliot! Even if it costs me my life, I’ll never go back!” 

Sheila screamed at the top of her lungs as if those names were her most hated enemies, then ran toward the riverbank.

Nothing was more despairing than thinking you found hope, only to be dragged back into the abyss. 

If she were taken back by Elliot’s men, she would face even harsher torment. 

With one failed escape attempt already, Kye could not help her anymore. 

Endless hell awaited her. 

Sheila sprinted desperately toward the riverbank, glancing back at her pursuers from time to time. The rain made the river rapid and turbulent. 

When she reached the edge of the river, Sheila did not hesitate and leaped into the water. 

“Sheila!” 

A deafening gunshot rang out. 

Sheila felt a searing pain in her left shoulder as the bullet struck her, turning the water around her crimson red. In the blink of an eye, she was swallowed up by the rushing currents, her blood quickly diluted by the water as she disappeared from sight. 

The two men ran along the riverbank, following the flow of the water. 

One of them dialed a number urgently, reporting the situation to Elliot.

At that moment, Elliot was in the Lawson family’s mansion, listening to the family discuss Albert’s condition. His phone was on silent mode, and he did not answer the call. 

Albert’s condition had deteriorated unexpectedly, with no hope of recovery. 

It was likely that his heart rate monitor would flatline within the next two days. 

As Sheena was still pregnant, she could not participate in the decision–making process or keep vigil at Albert’s bedside. 

After listening to Noah, Barbara, and Howard’s discussions, Sheena was exhausted. 

Then, Elliot held her and helped her into the car, driving back to E&S Haven. 

Back home, Sheena sat on the lounge chair, silently staring out at the rain. 

Elliot watched her suppress her heartbreak, silently keeping her company. 

After a period of silence, Sheena, who had not spoken, suddenly broke the silence. 

“Eli, let’s cancel our wedding the day after tomorrow.” 

Elliot instantly froze. However, he knew this would be the outcome. 

If their beloved father passed away, they would need to observe a mourning period for a period. During this time, celebratory events like weddings were out of the question. 

Besides, given the circumstances, Sheena would not be in the right mindset to proceed with the ceremony. 

He moved around to face Sheena, crouching and taking her hands in his, gently soothing, “Alright, as long as 1 can be by your side, that’s all that matters.” 

Sheena tenderly touched his face, feeling guilty inside.
