Chapter 410
“Did you really think you’re the lady of the mansion just because you’ve been living here for a few years? Do you, by any chance, consider yourself an elder worth respecting? Are you worthy of the respect you demand?”
Lauren glared at her fiercely, teeth clenched. “Why can’t I? I’m your legitimate mother!”
Sheena clicked her tongue dismissively, exuding arrogance. “A mother just five years older than me? Doesn’t it make you sick? Don’t you find it repulsive?”
Leaning close to Lauren’s ear, Sheena whispered, “Treasure your current life of luxury, for in the future, I’ll inherit all of the Lawson family’s fortune. When that tcomes, you can pack your bags and get the hell out of here.”
“Sheena!” Lauren was infuriated.
Even after all these years, Sheena remained arrogant and disdainful, not respecting her in the slightest.
Lauren wished she could tear off that mouth immediately!
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtHowever, Lauren’s anger quickly dispersed. She smirked and said, “By the way, congratulations. Just last night, Old Man Jenkins personally visited, and Albert has agreed to his engagement proposal. You’re getting married again.”
“What are you talking about? Dad arranged my marriage? How can he decide. without asking me?” Sheena’s expression immediately dropped.
Lauren arrogantly raised her chin. “Go upstairs and ask him yourself.”
Sheena, with a stern expression, no longer had the energy to argue with Lauren. She briskly went upstairs toward the study.
Lauren watched her hurried departure, feeling quite satisfied. She heard that Elliot had a violent and cold temperament, with Santiago’s failed attempt to force women into his bed. It seemed that Elliot had a kink of torturing women, as all the women sent by Santiago would walk out with injuries.
Rumors also suggested Elliot’s face was marred by war wounds, making him. exceptionally ugly.
Lauren chuckled to herself.
If Sheena truly married such a man, it would be indeed satisfying.
Lauren was overjoyed, swaying her slender waist as she headed to the small kitchen to check on her acai bowl.
Chapter #10
Sheena walked down the corridor, growing angrier by the moment. She forcefully pushed open the study door, but before she could voice her questions, she saw Albert, with a white beard and a weathered face, sitting in a wheelchair.
Upon seeing her enter, he lit up with tears in his eyes.
“Sweetheart, cover and lettake a look.”
Sheena entered with complex emotions, crouched by his wheelchair.
“What happened to your legs? I remember, before I left, you were perfectly fine.”
Albert chuckled lightly, “I’m old. Getting sick is normal. I just miss you every day. Since you’ve returned, why not stay at the Lawson estate and keepcompany?”
Sheena, feeling sorry for him, massaged his legs and compromised, “Alright, I can cback to stay, but I can’t guarantee it’ll be permanent. You know, I don’t get along with that woman, Lauren.”
“She’s your stepmother.”
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm“No, she’s not! Say that again, and I’ll get angry!”
“Okay, okay, I won’t bring it up.” Albert looked at her affectionately, his broad yet wrinkled hands gently caressing her face.
Albert asked a bunch of questions about her well–being, whether she ate well, slept well, and if anyone bullied her. The two chatted harmoniously. Midway through their conversation, Sheena suddenly remembered what Lauren had said.
“Dad, that woman just claimed you arranged my marriage. Is it true?”
Since she already knew, Albert did not hide it and explained, “Yes, Santiago spoke tolast night, and it got settled. His grandson, Elliot, is a very nice young man. I really like him. He…”
Albert rambled on with praises, but Sheena could not focus.
All she heard was that name: Elliot.
Once again, Elliot!
Damn it, what did she do to deserve this?
Why did this man’s nkeep haunting her? She found it extremely annoying!
