Wait, She’s a Billionaire (Sheena Lawson) novel Chapter 1160

Sheena was utterly speechless and scolded, "Have you lost your mind? Barbara is right there. How do you think she feels looking at you suffer? Why are you so selfish? Have you thought about her feelings?"

Corey was instantly silenced by Sheena's barrage of words and obediently agreed to the anesthesia.

After his wounds were treated, Corey was assigned to an observation room.

Barbara keenly found an excuse to leave, claiming she needed to go out and buy food, creating an opportunity for the siblings to chat alone.

Once Barbara left, neither Sheena nor Corey spoke first.

The ward was quiet for a long while, with a hint of awkwardness lingering.

After a long pause, Corey mustered the courage to broach the subject and break the silence. "Sheena, what exactly did Anne say when you two were alone in the mansion? I saw the bruises on her neck. You must have had a heated argument because of the truth about Mom's death."

Sheena fell silent for a moment, pondering her words before responding, "Those were just Anne's one-sided claims. There's no evidence to prove whether what she said is true. We need to investigate further before jumping to conclusions."

However, if what Anne said was true, it meant Corey had also been deceived by her and used as a pawn.

Corey had felt guilty for many years, thinking Anne's mother died because of him, and he had indulged Anne in everything to repay that debt.

Yet, the root cause of these events was Anne pulling the plug on their mother's life support, resulting in her death.

Anne knew all along but deliberately exploited Corey's guilt to further her own agenda.

This woman was truly sinister to the core.

Sheena sighed heavily as she contemplated.

How would Corey react if he knew the truth?

Nonetheless, she hoped Anne's words were untrue, and that Anne had some other motive for claiming responsibility for everything.

Otherwise, the revelation that such evil could reside in a child so young would be too shocking for her to bear.

On Elliot's side, they visited several crime scenes and found many inconsistencies regarding the serial murder case.

It turned out that the sensational news that had stirred up Svelton was actually deliberately fabricated.

Elliot was furious and ordered a thorough investigation to uncover the person behind the deliberate chaos.

Upon learning that Sheena had arrived at the National Investigation Bureau, Elliot, dressed in sharp military attire, personally greeted her at the door.

"Honey, I heard Corey took a bullet for you and got injured. How is he doing?"

"He's alright, the injury wasn't life-threatening. I've already sent him back to Mountville to recuperate."

Elliot listened quietly, relying on his intuition to analyze the situation with Sheena.

"I feel like something's off about this. The way Anne set you up this time was more reckless than any previous attempt, especially since she fired a gun. I heard she was quite decisive in shooting. Before this, she must have had some experience handling firearms. If she intended to shoot you, how could the bullet have missed any vital organs?"
