Chapter 416
As the family head in power, Albert looked at Sheena with a gentle expression but remained silent throughout. The others could not read his thoughts and dared not speak out of turn.
However, Sheena dared to.
“Uncle Barrett, you accuse me without evidence. You can’t just let your family and Lauren gang up on me.”
Barrett did not respond, but Lauren was irritated and complained with a touch of tears in her voice, “Dear, look at her. She calls me by my name directly, showing no respect. I never bullied her!”
Annoyed by the noise, Albert scolded her softly, “This is none of your business. Keep quiet.”
Lauren pouted displeasingly and stood behind him.
Albert then turned to Barrett, saying, “Barrett, Sheena is right. Baseless accusations won’t work. We need to see the evidence.”
Barrett replied, “Albert, she knocked me unconscious, kidnapped me, took me to some unknown basement, and committed horrors against me. She would’ve cleaned up any evidence afterward. Where would I get proof?”
He spoke, and tears welled in his eyes, continuing, “Albert, you know me. I’ve always been fond of Sheena. I have a soft temperament and no ambitions. Why would I wrongly accuse her if she didn’t do this?”
“Of course, you would do that,” Sheena chimed in.
“Because Uncle Barrett had wanted to kill me a long time ago. While I was still in Farlem, he had Keanu threaten Nathaniel to poison me. Uncle Barrett, you should remember that, right?”
Barrett snorted. “Empty words are worthless. Just as you demanded, where’s the evidence?”
“Uncle Barrett, have you forgotten? I have evidence.”
Sheena grinned and opened her bag, taking out a neatly prepared document. She walked over and handed it to Albert.
Although Barrett’s eyes twitched, he remained silent.
Keanu, unable to contain himself, said, “Your evidence is just Nathaniel’s testimony. It’s still insufficient!”
Sheena took the lollipop out of her mouth, raising her eyebrows in surprise. “Oh? I didn’t expect Keanu to have already seen the evidence in my hands.”
With these words, everyone in the altar room, except a few quick individuals, began to sense something was amiss.
Keanu was stunned but quickly regained composure. “I work at the National Affairs Bureau. Nathaniel was imprisoned six months ago for stealing laboratory drugs. I remember this incident well.”
Sheena responded simply, “Oh.”
Then, she flashed a brighter smile, adding, “You might be disappointed, Keanu, because this evidence includes more than just Nathaniel’s testimony.”
As Sheena finished speaking, Albert had already reviewed the entire set of evidence, infuriated enough to slam the teacup on the table down at Barrett’s feet.
The porcelain shards flew, creating a sharp and loud sound.
Lauren and Mona screamed.

Albert was trembling with anger, shouting, “Barrett! Keanu!”
“Albert?”
“See for yourself!” Albert forcefully threw the documents at Barrett’s feet.
Keanu helped Barrett pick them up. As they both read through the evidence, their faces turned pale, and they looked at Sheena in shock.
Sheena appeared indifferent.
Over the past six months, Corey had helped her organize the evidence against Barrett’s family, which was neatly stored in Howard’s mansion.
Barrett did not expect her to gather evidence so quickly, allowing them to confront her boldly.
Nevertheless, this was also why she decided to return to Svelton.
She looked at Albert, saying with an innocent yet playful tone, “Dad, according to the Lawson family’s codes, how should we punish Barrett and Keanu for their ruthless actions against their own kin for the sake of the family fortune?”
Albert’s gaze turned cold, deliberately raising his voice. “They should be expelled from the Lawson family and sent to prison for severe punishment!”
