Wait, She’s a Billionaire (Sheena Lawson) novel Chapter 1250

After finishing her call with Nathaniel, Sheena and Elliot finally got ready for breakfast at 10.30 a.m.

Noah and Hannah happened to open their door at the same time, and they exchanged greetings in the hallway.

Observing the improved intimacy between Noah and Hannah compared to the previous night, Sheena felt relieved.

"What a coincidence! How about having breakfast together?"

The four of them left the corridor together.

Sheena noticed a faint blush lingering on Hannah's face and secretly gave Noah a thumbs-up.

Who would have thought Noah had it in him?

He managed to soothe Hannah's emotions overnight.

What a quick learner!

After breakfast, they embarked on the second day of their Tunialand adventure.

…

Meanwhile, at Svelton back in Froania, the door to the deputy chief's office of the National Investigation Bureau was knocked.

Lionel, engrossed in his work, did not look up when he said, "Come in."

It was the security officer.

"Mr. Lionel, there's a young lady outside who claims to be your fiancee."

Lionel paused in his document writing.

"Why is she here at the National Investigation Bureau instead of attending her classes?"

The officer shook his head and glanced at his watch.

"It's the weekend, so there shouldn't be any classes at the university. She probably just misses you."

"The weekend?"

Lionel looked at the calendar on the table.

A few days ago, he had marked the date and promised to go out with Jacintha, but he was too busy and forgot.

Lionel took her arm and led her to a quiet corner before casually ruffling her hair.

"Jacintha, I have some urgent military matters to attend to today, and I'm afraid I won't be able to accompany you. Why don't you invite some of your close friends to hang out instead?"

Jacintha's smile faded, replaced by a serious and angry expression.

"You said the same thing last time. You promised me that you would make time for me today, but now you're standing me up again."

Lionel looked apologetic. "I'm sorry. I've just been promoted to deputy chief recently, and I don't want to disappoint Elliot's expectations of me. I need to do better than Romello did in my position."

Jacintha's eyes welled up with tears, and she bit her lip.

"Work is endless. In Mr. Jenkins's eyes, nothing is more important than Sheena. But in your eyes, everything else is more important than me."

Lionel could not bear to see her cry, especially knowing he was at fault.

"It's my fault, Jacintha. Please don't be upset, and don't jump to conclusions."

Pushing away his hand that was trying to wipe her tears, Jacintha looked deeply hurt.

"Lionel, do you even remember that we're about to get engaged? Even Mr. Jenkins asked about meeting my family and discussing the wedding gifts, but you've never mentioned these things. It's as if you don't care about our engagement. Do you even... want me? Did you agree to our engagement because Mr. Jenkins and Sheena were trying to set us up?"
