Chapter 750
“That’s good.” Albert paused slightly, hesitated for a moment, and then asked with uncertainty, “Pre you free this weekend?”
Sheena glanced at the computer’s clock and chuckled. “Dad, it’s only Monday today. My chNAN hasn’t reached the weekend yet. I don’t know if I’ll be free,”
“Sweetheart, can you free up some time this weekend and return to the Lawson estatu?”
Sheena did not answer immediately, and Albert stayed silent for a moment, seeming a bit afraid that she might refuse.
Then, he sincerely added, “Sweetheart, I’m getting old, and my health is worsening, I want to lighten the load and spend quality time with my grandchildren in the future. Besides, the Lawson Group needs a successor to take on responsibilities. I hope you can come back this week and sign the inheritance agreement, okay?”
Sheena’s typing hands froze for a moment.
Since returning to Svelton, Albert had been encouraging her to work at the Lawson Group, familiarize herself with the business, and eventually take over. She had always been clear that she was not interested, insisting on expanding Angle Group’s business to Svelton to break away from the Lawson family’s influence and carve out her own path.
But this time…
Thinking about the plan she discussed with Elliot last night, Sheena refrained from refusing this time.
“Sure, Dad. I’ll make time to come back this weekend.”
Albert was surprised at how readily she agreed, and it took him a moment to react. When he did, he was thrilled.
“Sweetheart, you’re the best! I’ll be waiting for you this weekend!”
After chatting for a while more, Albert reminded her to take care of her diet and safety, then hung up the phone.
In the afternoon, Sheena was signing a contract with Caesar when Elliot arrived early, sitting on the couch and browsing the books on Sheena’s shelf.
Signing a contract was a meticulous process, and Caesar brought legal representatives from
Laubabwe to review.
After negotiating without any issues, they signed and stamped the documents.
The whole process took over two hours.
When Sheena returned to her office to pack up, she found Elliot lying on her couch, fast asleep. She approached quietly, gently took the book from his hand, and sat beside him, admiring his peaceful

sleeping face.
seeing him sleep so soundly, Sheena suddenly developed a mischievous plan.
Her slender fingers reached out, aiming to plich his nose and wake him up. However, as her hand was about to touch his nose, she felt reluctant.
In the end, she chose to lean down and kiss his lips, using a sweet and gentle kiss to rouse him.
“Nana?”
Elliot’s long lashes fluttered as he woke up, his awareness hazy. He opened his eyes to see Sheena’s familiar and enchanting beauty.
In an instant, his heart seemed to become remarkably calm..
Elliot embraced Sheena, pulling her into his arms. He rolled over, enclosing her on the couch and passionately kissing her lips.
The intertwining breaths made him feel like he was under the influence of a sweet poison, unable to break free.
After the kiss, he lay on his side, left hand supporting his head, and lightly tapped Sheena’s nose with his right hand, gazing at her with infatuation.
“Won’t it be great if I could keep you locked away, only visible to me, always smiling only for me?” “What are you thinking?” Sheena furrowed her brows, pretending to be displeased, and playfully patted his sturdy chest.
After a pat, she pinched, and after a pinch, she patted again, teasing him audaciously.
“Ms. Lawson, Mr. Caesar is already waiting for you outside. Once you’re done getting ready, let’s go. for dinner,” said Wendy, knocking on the door.
Finding the door not securely closed, she pushed it open and unexpectedly witnessed the scene on the couch.
