Chapter 555
Sheena’s expression turned serious almost instantly.
Katie sure was quick to act.
Was she rumming out of patience already?
She first looked at Elliot, instructing, “Eli, backstage is full of girls. It’s not suitable for you to go. I’ll find you later. Remember, no drinking!”
In front of others, she just raised an eyebrow as a signal, and the mischievous threat in her eyes spoke volumes.
Elliot smiled and nodded obediently.
Only after Sheena left with Anita did Elliot’s face gradually turn stern.
Before long, he called Lionel over and whispered, “Have Logan discreetly watch over Nana’s safety while you keep a close eye on the Upton siblings. Report any suspicious activity promptly.”
“Yes, Mr. Jenkins!”
After Lionel left, Elliot looked toward the Upton mansion with a stern gaze.
As he turned, he saw Howard walking toward him.
Howard had already learned from Sheena that Elliot was Elijah from the past. His expression was not very friendly, but not as hostile as Corey’s.
In the future, Elliot would undoubtedly have to face the challenges of his brothers–in–law.
Having witnessed much of what he and Sheena went through in Farlem, Howard was likely the easiest to get along with.
Thinking of this, Elliot smiled and playfully greeted, “Hey, isn’t it my brother–in–law? Were you looking for me?”
Howard was a bit displeased, “Who’s your brother–in–law? You two are just engaged. You’re not even officially married yet.”
Elliot did not argue, just smiled. “Wanna chat?”
Sheena followed Anita into the mansion, heading to the Butterflies‘ dedicated dressing room. Before entering, the girls‘ loud and somewhat tearful voices inside reached her ears.
Anita pushed open the door, revealing several girls huddled together with their backs to the entrance, seemingly focused on something.
Sheena walked over, asking, “What’s going on?”

As they heard her voice, the girls turned around.
Meredith Pearson, who had debuted in fourth place, hurriedly ran over to grab Sheena,
“Ms. Lawson, look at this! Phoebe’s stage costume is ruined, and the party is about to start in about ten minutes. What should we do?”
The other girls were equally anxious.
Since Lisa’s departure due to the cheating scandal, leaving the group with only six members, they had
lost some fans.
Although today’s performance was just a routine part of the event, many of them were hoping to catch the eye of a wealthy and handsome heir among the distinguished guests, hoping to leap into the world of high society.
In a group performance, if one person made a mistake, everyone suffered the consequences,
Sheena, aware of their thoughts, remained silent, moving forward to inspect the damaged outfit. The originally exquisite dress had been brutally cut into scraps, with no chance for repairs or alterations.
Phoebe, the person directly involved, was sitting calmly on the couch. Among all the members, she seemed the most composed, as if she had anticipated everything that happened.
Sheena turned to her, asking, “Phoebe, what’s your opinion?”
Phoebe replied, “Since the costume is ruined and I can’t go on stage, we can just say that I’m sick. The other five can still perform.”
