Chapter 744
‘Ms. Lawson, I’m so sorry! Mr. Jenkins asked me to closely monitor your interactions with colleagues. and report to him anytime. It’s just… he’s given me way too many benefits! Besides, he’s about to become your husband, and I know he won’t harm you, that’s why 1…‘
Coming out of the meeting room, Sheena immediately composed a message and sent it to Elliot.
[Sheena: I have a work–related dinner tonight and won’t be coming home to eat. Once things settle down, I’ll spend quality time with you. See you, Eli!]
She also added a cute patting–dog–head sticker.
In just two seconds, before she could even put her phone down, Sheena received a reply from Elliot.
[Elliot: How many people? Man or woman?]
Sheena stared at the message, feeling a bit puzzled. If she mentioned having dinner alone with Caesar, Elliot would surely jump to conclusions, right?
With this in mind, she quickly edited her response.
[Sheena: A lot of people, both men and women both. Don’t worry! I know how to keep my distance!]
At the end, she added a blowing–kiss emoji.
After sending this message, she did not receive a reply for several minutes.
Sheena did not dwell on it and put her phone back into her bag, continuing her conversation with Caesar and riding the elevator down.
However, she had no idea that a certain man was waiting in the car for her, almost exploding in fury when he read the message.
Elliot almost ruined the only SSC in the entire Froania!
A storm was about to unfold.
Sheena and Caesar walked out of the Angle Group building side by side, maintaining a subtle distance.
Caesar asked, “Ms. Lawson, I heard you’re really getting married this time?”
“Yes, the wedding is scheduled for next month. If you haven’t returned to Laubabwe by then, feel free
to come to the celebration. You can also bring a wedding gift along,” Sheena playfully said.
Caesar burst into laughter. “I’ll make sure to send a thick wad of cash as a gift!”
Sheena chuckled. “Rest assured, even if I can’t make it to your wedding, the gift will surely arrive! I’ll make sure you don’t lose out, no less!”
Caesar laughed cheerfully, but a hint of melancholy hid behind his bright blue eyes.

“I don’t think I’ll be getting married anytime soon. I recently fell head over heels for a girl at first sight, but she got married a couple of days later. Before I could even cherish the emotions, I was already heartbroken!”
As he finished speaking, a faint sadness permeated the air.
Sheena consoled, “Don’t be discouraged. You’ll meet another girl you like in the future, someone who belongs to you.”
“I hope so.”
Caesar halted, suddenly taking her hand, assuming a gentlemanly posture.
“Ms. Lawson, I’d like to greet you with the traditional Laubabwe gesture for the last time. May 1?”
“Sure.”
It was just a kiss on the hand, not a big deal.
Caesar gazed at her smiling face with affection, slightly bowing.
“Lovely lady, it’s a pleasure to have dinner with you tonight.”
Before his lips could touch Sheena’s fair hand, a powerful grip seized his wrist.

A man’s enraged and deep voice sounded.
“Dinner? Let me treat you to a knuckle sandwich first!”
Before the words fully sank in, Caesar’s right cheek received a heavy punch.
