Wait, She’s a Billionaire (Sheena Lawson) novel Chapter 221

Chapter 221 

Just because it was Howard, he deserved it? 

Was Howard that important to her? 

Elijah was not pleased. 

Not pleased at all! 

He would wrap Howard in a sack and ship him off to Antarctica to feed the penguins if he could! 

Sensing the sudden surge of resentment from the figure with his back against her, Sheena smiled. Nonetheless, Elijah’s back injuries did look a bit glaring. 

“Sawyer, apply medicine on his wounds,” Sheena said, directing an unexpected order at Sawyer. 

Sawyer was caught by surprise, blurting out, “Huh? Me?” 

Sheena glared at him and said, “Unless you want me to do it personally?” 

“I’m on it, Miss.” Sawyer appeared reluctant. 

He thought Elijah was simply shameless. He wondered if he could apply poison instead for trying to trouble Howard just now.

Despite his unwillingness, Sawyer fetched the first aid kit under Sheena’s gaze. 

With things roughly settled, Sheena turned to leave. However, a pair of broad hands suddenly grabbed her wrist from behind. 

“Sheena, chat with me for a while…” 

Elijah had shifted to lie in a different direction, not lifting his head. His voice sounded muffled from beneath the blanket, and with his long, trembling lashes and pale complexion, he looked quite ‘fragile‘. 

Sheena glanced at Elijah and said, “My time is precious. I don’t have the time to chat with you. Let go.” 

She emphasized the word ‘with you‘, reminding him of his current status. 

Elijah remained motionless and did not release his grip. 

“Sheena, I was left alone for six hours this afternoon. It really hurts. The marble tiles in the living room are so cold… Considering that I’ve acknowledged my fault, can we talk for a while… 

His voice was soft, sounding like a wounded little creature seeking comfort. 

Six hours alone on the living room floor? 

Sheena furrowed her brow, glancing at Owen standing nearby. 

Owen lowered his head in terror. “I–I thought Mr. Freeman fainted while doing housework, so I didn’t…” 

Owen was afraid he would make things worse and blamed for what happened, so he quickly shut his mouth and exited, closing the door behind him. 

As the door closed, the room fell completely silent. 

Sheena glanced at Elijah and asked, “What do you want to say?” 

Elijah held onto her wrist, unwilling to let go. “You were at Howard’s these past two days. Was everything alright?” 

Sheena was confused. 

Was he playing the role of a helpless victim just to talk about these trivial matters? 

“Without someone frustrating me and with Mr. Lawson being so tender and considerate, course everything was great.”

Knowing she was mocking him, Elijah put on a serious expression and probed, “I heard the Lawson family has very high requirements for their descendants‘ partners. Do you think Howard would defy the entire family for you?” 

Howard marrying her? 

Well, that would be a huge joke. 

Sheena said sarcastically, “That’s my business, and you don’t seem to have the qualification to meddle in my 

affairs.” 

Elijah observed her expression, smirking. “It seems he doesn’t intend to let the Lawson family know about your existence, so are you being kept by him?” 

Sheena chuckled at his guess. “No man in this world can keep me, and I’m probably the one who does the keeping and supporting.” 

This statement sounded arrogantly confident, but coming from her, it surprisingly did not feel out of place. 

Elijah squinted his eyes slightly, carefully contemplating the deeper meaning behind her words. If she truly possessed such capability, it could mean she was affiliated with the Lawson family. 

Perhaps she and Howard had a blood relationship, and they could not possibly be lovers. 

In other words, all their previous intimacy might have been just between family members! 

Although this was merely Elijah’s speculation and had not been confirmed, he secretly hoped it was true.
