Chapter 475

The atmosphere at the dinner table instantly turned very tense, creating an unsettling vibe. The servants waiting on the side were frightened and quickly left.

Corey and Barbara shot disapproving glances at Lauren.

Elliot furrowed his brow, his expression darkening further beneath his mask.

Lauren, feeling the tension in the room, was scared. However, she stubbornly maintained her composure and scoffed.

“Why is everyone staring at me? I’m just speaking the truth,” Lauren declared arrogantly, determined to make Elliot see Sheena for what she believed her to be–a tainted woman!

Albert, slightly displeased, cleared his throat.

“We’re having a meal. Why bring up such matters? Close your mouth and eat your food.”

Lauren, tactful for once, decided not to press further. After all, she had achieved her goal of provoking

a reaction from Sheena.

Corey, Barbara, and Elliot’s gazes all shifted back to Sheena, who was quietly enjoying her meal without displaying any extra emotions as if she had not heard Lauren’s earlier remarks.

It was quite unlike her usual retaliatory nature.

Elliot found this behavior puzzling. In an attempt to gauge her mood, he casually scooped up at mushroom, knowing she disliked them, and placed it on her plate.

“These are good for you, and they’re delicious. You should have more.

Sheena’s spoon and fork froze in mid–air. Instead of speaking, she just shot Elliot a warning look that only he could interpret–a clear sign that she was simmering with rage.

She was holding back her anger, an unusual departure from her usual style of not bottling up her

emotions.

Elliot was unsure what was going on in her mind, but he knew that leaving that detested mushroom. on her plate might lead to consequences when they got home. So, he took the mushroom from her plate and ate it himself.

Sheena’s expression softened at this.

Albert, observing the scene, narrowed his eyes, deep in thought.

The meal continued, but the unpleasant atmosphere lingered.

Albert waited until Elliot was done eating before gently asking, “Elliot, do the dishes prepared by the Lawson family chefs suit your taste?”

“It’s good. I’ve had enough to eat. Take your time,” Elliot said as he set aside his utensils.

Albert also did the same, stating, “I’ve almost finished, but with age, my legs aren’t what they used to be. I’d like to go to the study and grab a few books while they continue eating. Could you pushover there?”

It was evident that Albert had something to discuss privately.

“Sure.” Elliot did not hesitate, getting up and walking behind Albert to assist in pushing his wheelchair.

Once they were gone, Lauren resumed speaking, “Sheena, you really have sluck. You’re a used woman, having been married before, yet Elliot doesn’t seem to mind. You should be grateful to the Lawson family’s influence or

Before she could finish her sentence, Sheena suddenly picked up a half–filled glass of juice and splashed it onto Lauren across the long table. The juice covered her head to toe, even getting into her

hair.

Lauren widened her eves. ”

“Did you just splash me?”

Sheena raised an eyebrow coldly. “Why wouldn’t I? Elliot was here, and it was his first tdining with the Lawson family. I tolerated you the first time, but who knew you’d take advantage of it and push your luck.”

“This is the Lawson family! I’m your stepmother!”

Sheena sneered. “Apart from Dad, who in the Lawson family acknowledges your status? Don’t you feel embarrassed, always crying for attention like that? It seems you’ve realized how miserable your life is.”

“Sheena!” Lauren turned red with anger and glanced at Corey and Barbara.

Corey looked indifferent, and Barbara was trying to stifle a laugh. They both acted as if it was none of

their business.

Sheena noticed Lauren’s gaze and mocked, “What are you looking at? Hoping they’ll speak up for you? Corey’s my brother, and Barbara’s my sister–in–law. By doing nothing, they’re already showing some face for Dad.”

With Albert out of the picture, Lauren found herself without support, feeling frustrated and almost on the verge of tears.
