Chapter 819
1/2
There was just one more week until the wedding.
During this final week, Sheena was not idle at all.
With the Lawson Group now under her charge, there were numerous projects that needed her attention and improvement. Luckily, with Elliot helping her annotate documents, she could handle the workload much more efficiently.
As per their usual routine, the two of them went to work at the Lawson Group together.
Elliot placed his laptop on the coffee table, busy working on projects for the Jenkins Group. Whenever he had a moment, he continued to assist Sheena with annotating documents.
They worked in sync, with focused dedication.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtIn the afternoon, Sheena’s assistant, Ria, urgently knocked on the door of the CEO’s office.
“Ms. Lawson, something’s happened!”
Upon entering and seeing Elliot there, Ria suddenly looked awkward, her words trailing off.
Sheena paused her typing and turned to look at her.
“Go on, Mr. Jenkins is one of us.”
With Sheena’s assurance, Ria bit the bullet and proceeded to report.
“Ms. Lawson, the marketing strategy for the Windsail Project we’ve been planning has been finalized, and today, the marketing department was about to launch it when they discovered…”
Sheena frowned, urging, “Discovered what?”
Elliot also stopped working, turning to Ria at the door.
Ria, stealing glances at Elliot, spoke with a diminishing voice.
“A subsidiary of the Jenkins Group released a new project before us, and its planning content is exactly the sas ours. Now, because of this, the entire senior management of the Lawson Group is in an uproar. They suspect that…”
Elliot calmly picked up the thread, “They suspect that while taking care of Nana, I stole the planning proposal for the Lawson Group’s new project?”
Ria lowered her head, remaining silent.
The silence spoke volumes–it was an admission.
The office fell into a brief, uneasy silence.
Sheena pondered the matter for a long time, remaining silent.

Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmRia spoke again, “Ms. Lawson, all the directors and executives have gathered in the conference room. They’re demanding you convene an emergency meeting to address the loss suffered by the Lawson Group due to this project.”
The carefully prepared project of the Lawson Group had been plagiarized, rendering all the efforts and investments of everyone involved in the project worthless.
This was indeed a very tricky situation, one that required calming everyone’s nerves.
Sheena’s mind was clear, and she responded calmly, “Understood. This matter needs to be addressed, and I’ll be there in half an hour.”
“Yes, Ms. Lawson.” Ria acknowledged before leaving, leaving the office quiet once more.
Elliot watched Sheena from a distance. Noticing her serious expression and her ignoring him, he suddenly felt suffocated.
“Nana…” He paled, mustering up the courage to ask, “Do you also suspect it’s me?”
Sheena remained silent, her mind elsewhere, focused on typing and planning for something.
Elliot felt even more choked up, his eyes welling up.
“It wasn’t me.”
He clenched his fists, enduring the discomfort.
Even if the entire Lawson Group doubted him, he only hoped that Sheena would believe in him. Just as Sheena finished her task and looked up, their eyes met.
