Chapter 140

The best way to bankupt the Freeman family was to start with the Freeman Group. However, the

Freeman Group was a well–respected company in Farlem, and toppling it with her ow

umpth in a short amount of time would not be easy. Moreover, she still had the task her Tather he given

her.

Lost in thought, Sheena returned to the mansion. As she entered the garden, she saw Howard waiting

for her at the entrance, looking mysterious. Seeing her approach, he greeted her.

“What’s the matter?” Sheena was puzzled, preparing to go inside. “Howard, I have things to take care

of. If you have something to say, just say it.”

“There’s someone you know waiting for you inside. Care to guess who?”

Seeing him acting mysteriously, Sheena walked up the stairs with a puzzled expression.

A tall, slim figure with a sophisticated aura stood in the hallway. Hearing Sheena’s footsteps, he turned

abruptly, his gaze meeting her clear eyes.

“C–Colin Upton?” Sheena blurted out in disbelief.

“Sheena! It’s been six years, and you’ve grown even more mature. I never thought I’d see you again.”

Colin was particularly excited. “What happened six years ago? How did you end up in Farlem?”

“It’s all in the past.” Sheena smiled, asking, “How long have you been waiting? Why don’t you have a

seat?”

Sheena invited Colin to sit on the main couch while she settled on a side sofa. With delicate fingertips,

she picked up a teacup and poured a cup for Colin.

Observing Sheena’s elegant gestures and movements, Colin could not help but feel deeply impressed

by how the young, innocent girl from six years ago had transformed into a mature, alluring, and

captivating beauty.

“You’ve truly changed a lot.”

“I’m no longer a child now, so of course, I’ve changed.” Sheena chuckled, steering the conversation

away. “We haven’t seen each other in so long. How about having dinner here tonight and catching up?”

Colin readily agreed, saying, “Of course! How about getting a few drinks and reminiscing?” “Colin, just

don’t pass out right away! Don’t let Nana witness that!” Howard walked in from outside and playfully

patted Colin’s shoulder. “I remember a few years ago, we had a drink together, and you were knocked

out by just one glass. It scared me so much that I almost had to take you to the hospital.‘

“Knock it off! I’m not the same as a few years ago, and I can hold my liquor now. If you don’t believe

me, how about a little competition?”

Sheena silently followed behind the two, watching their backs, feeling deeply moved.

It had been a long time since she caught up with old friends. Those three years spent with Elijah almost

made her forget her former confident, enthusiastic, and cheerful self.

In celebration of their ramion after so many years, Howard opered a bottle of aged French

What, you think I can’t hold my alcohol? Are you trying to fool me with a bottle of wine Colin half

jokingly punched Howard’s shoulder.

“Don’t underestimate this bottle of wine. I brought it back after visiting Chateau Latour in France, couple

of years ago. It’s pretty strong. I didn’t even open it when Nana came back. You better give it a taste.”

Howard brought out three crystal wine glasses, pouring some wine into each and handing one

to Colin.

Colin took the glass, first taking a whiff before sipping it slowly.

“It really is a good wine!”

The three clinked their glasses and downed their wine in one gulp.

As the toast continued, they went on late into the night.

Colin’s face was slightly flushed from the alcohol, and he stared at Sheena’s slightly rosy cheeks,

hesitating.

“Sheena, Howard told me a bit about your situation. How have you been over the years? That

man…‘
