Wait, She’s a Billionaire (Sheena Lawson) novel Chapter 1111

As Sheena felt comforted, Barbara continued, "I don't like Anne either. Rest assured, I'll find a way to help you, but…"

Barbara paused, her expression slightly conflicted.

After a moment of hesitation, she held Sheena's hands, offering earnest advice, "Sheena, ever since the incident with Sheila came to light, Corey has relinquished all control and truly hasn't intervened in her affairs. He's been repentant. After this incident is over, can you forgive him?"

Sheena lowered her head, silently withdrawing her hands from Barbara's grasp.

"Barbara, I don't want to lie to console you. Let's talk about this after the matter is truly resolved. At least for now, I don't see any change in him."

Barbara nodded understandingly, deciding not to press her further.

The conversation shifted, and after a while, Barbara emerged from Sheena's luxury car and quietly departed.

Observing the situation in Mountville, Sheena checked the time and realized it was already quitting time.

The afternoon meeting had been canceled due to the unexpected events in Mountville and rescheduled for tomorrow.

Hence, she chose to head back to E&S Haven.

Upon arriving home, Sheena saw Lionel was there, and Elliot was upstairs packing his bags.

Finding it odd, she asked, "Lionel, are you two leaving for a mission?"

Lionel nodded solemnly.

"There's a new situation on the border, and it's quite tricky. We have to rush over immediately and leave tonight."

Understanding the seriousness of National Investigation Bureau matters, Sheena nodded.

"How long will you be gone?"

Lionel thought for a moment, then shook his head, replying, "Not sure. If things are resolved quickly, we might be back in two days, but if not, it could be up to a week."

In other words, Sheena and Elliot would be apart for at least two days, or up to a week.

While they talked, Elliot came downstairs with his packed suitcase.

However, their moment was interrupted by Lionel knocking on the door.

"Elliot, it's getting late. If we don't leave now, we won't make it to the border tonight and settle our sleeping arrangement."

The lovebirds had to reluctantly release their embrace.

Sheena escorted Elliot out, watching them disappear around the corner of E&S Haven's courtyard wall.

Since Elliot had everything sorted, staying alone at E&S Haven did not seem appealing to her.

Sheena went back to her room, quickly packed a few clothes, and headed to the lab.

Yosef had already arranged a special room for Sheena to rest and receive treatment at night.

The room only had a hospital bed and a bedside table, with no extra decorations.

Yosef apologized, "Sheena, the lab's resources are limited, so we can't provide a better, safer treatment room. You'll have to make do for a few days until Elliot returns."
