Chapter 504
“Ms. Lawson, 1 admit my mistake. I truly realize my mistake now. Please give me a chance to change Don’t send me to jail! I beg you!”
Lisa pleaded, crawling to Sheena’s feet, and reaching out to grab Sheena’s skirt, but Sheena coldly avoided her.
Sheena looked down at Lisa with an aloof expression, her eyes utterly indifferent.
Meanwhile, Phoebe had cleaned off the dirty water, changed into a clean dress, and wrapped herself in a towel as she emerged from the restroom.
Relieved to see Phoebe seemingly unharmed, Sheena told Lisa, “You shouldn’t apologize to me. You should apologize to Phoebe. If she’s willing to forgive you, I might consider letting you off.”
Lisa’s hope reignited, and she crawled to Phoebe, bowing repeatedly.
“Phoebe, I was wrong! I shouldn’t have targeted you intentionally, and I shouldn’t have interfered in your relationship with Caleb. You can hit me, scold me, anything, just please don’t let Ms. Lawson send me to jail. I truly know I was wrong. Considering our past as teammates, I beg you!”
Phoebe clenched her fists tightly. Memories of Lisa’s arrogant and triumphant face when she was caught in bed with Caleb flashed before her eyes.
How could someone who committed such a horrifying act have the audacity to ask for a second chance?
However, looking at Lisa’s pitiful and desperate state, crying with all her might, Phoebe remained silent for a long time.
Noting Phoebe’s hesitation, Sheena subtly reminded, “Phoebe, if I hadn’t intervened earlier, she might have taken your life by now. Do you believe she genuinely wants to change? Are you truly willing to forgive her?”
Phoebe’s momentary hesitation turned into determination.
“No, I’ll never forgive her! Lisa, adults should think about the consequences before taking action. Since you’ve done it, you must take responsibility for your behavior!”
“No! Phoebe, please, save me!”
Lisa was in utter despair, terrified of facing prison with those two charges on her.
This time, Phoebe’s determination remained unshaken, and she silently watched as the police took Lisa away.
Approaching Phoebe, Sheena smiled with satisfaction.
“Through all these experiences, you’ve indeed grown a lot. Well done!”

Phoebe tightly grasped Sheena’s hand, feeling deeply moved. Despite the minor disruption in the filming schedule, Phoebe quickly regained her composure and continued with the shoot.
In the evening, Elliot was already home when Sheena returned to the mansion.
His legs were crossed, sitting on the sofa, watching TV with an air of unparalleled elegance.
Sheena found it a bit strange and asked, “You’re back from work so early today. Isn’t the Jenkins Group busy?”
Elliot deliberately returned early, explaining, “Nana, I have an urgent mission from the National Investigation Bureau. I need to go to the border tomorrow night.”
“Tomorrow night?” Sheena sat down beside him. “You’re leaving so soon. How long will this trip be?”
“At least three to five days.”
Sheena lowered her gaze, seemingly distracted.
“Alright… I have an appointment at the hospital the day after tomorrow for a check–up. I was thinking of going with you.
Elliot pulled her into his arms, carefully checking if she was injured. “You seem perfectly fine. Why do you need to go to the hospital? Is something wrong?”
“No.” Sheena, recalling Santiago’s words, chuckled awkwardly. “I met Grandpa Santiago when I went out today. It seems like he really wants us to have kids. Honestly, I find it strange too. We’ve done it so many times, but why am I not pregnant?”
Following her gaze, Elliot looked at her stomach but remained silent.
Despite their numerous encounters, Sheena had not conceived.
It was simply because… something was up with his health.
