Chapter 1084
Late at night in E&S Haven, the sound of a brawl echoed from the basement.
Elliot and Sheena exchanged blows for what felt like an hour.
After over an hour, both were nearly exhausted, and Sheena finally fell asleep.
Elliot lay flat on the ground, drenched in sweat and his chest heaving.
Glancing at Sheena sleeping beside him, holding his hand, he chuckled in exasperation.
“This workout is more exhausting than that one–day marathon. Nana sure knows how to keep me on my
toes.
After a brief rest, he carried Sheena, left the basement, and headed to the shower.
Then, they went about their routine as usual.
It was currently the best solution, and Elliot felt content.
They had followed this routine for the past two days, almost making it a regular part of their lives.
Since they knew Sheena might experience an episode at night, and moving to the basement could solve the problem perfectly, Elliot and Sheena went to Santiago’s mansion together, bringing Asher and Adora back to E&S Haven to stay.
Aside from the nighttime episodes, their lives seemed to be returning to normal.
In the afternoon, Sheena went to work at the Lawson Group as usual.
Before she could settle into her office chair, she heard a commotion outside her office.
Ignoring it, she turned on her computer, ready to dive into her work.
However, the person outside seemed determined to confront her.
“Ms. Windsor, you can’t go in there! Hey, you…”
Just as Sheena was about to hold the mouse, Anne forcefully pushed the office door open.
Seeing Anne’s angry expression, Sheena smirked sarcastically.
“Ms. Windsor, you’re a graduate of the reputable Froania University and the General Manager of AN Group, but what’s with your manners? Don’t you know it’s rude to barge in uninvited?”
Anne strode in on her high heels, showing no sign of shame as she took a seat opposite Sheena’s desk.
“Ms. Lawson, you’re clearly in the office and have time, yet you’ve had your assistant repeatedly refuse to see me. Don’t you feel guilty?”
Sheena chuckled, propping her chin lazily on her hand as she locked eyes with Anne.

“What do I have to feel guilty about? You’re just a general manager, while I’m the CEO of the Lawson Group. I have multiple times more duties to attend to every day than you do. If I didn’t see you, it’s because I’m busy. And besides, if anyone should feel guilty, It’s probably not me,” Sheena retorted, her gaze piercing.
Anne seemed oblivious to Sheena’s sarcasm and replied, “Ms. Lawson, It’s you who should feel guilty. Your people have robbed me of my business dealings multiple times recently. Do you think that’s appropriate?”
Sheena’s smile remained warm and friendly. “What’s Inappropriate about it? Is this your first day in the business world? It’s normal for there to be competition in our collaborations. If you can’t handle it, how can you handle bigger responsibilities?”
Anne was momentarily speechless.
Sheena continued, “Besides, when I was collaborating with the Dorvell Corporation, you were trying to snatch the deal for AN Group. You just couldn’t pull it off, but I did. Is that why you’re upset?”
Anne stared at her sternly. “Ms. Lawson, at least I’m asking you face–to–face. Unlike you, who played dirty behind my back. You managed to snatch the deal just hours before I was supposed to sign the contract.”
Sheena’s smile turned more mischievous. “Snatching a deal is considered playing dirty? Then what about orchestrating car accidents, arranging forty black–market assassins to attack me, and even hiring a sniper? What would you call that?”
