Chapter 775
Sheena’s gaze instantly turned cold. Remembering yesterday’s events in the Lawson family, she
scoffed, “Even you don’t believe this paternity test, but my brothers, who’ve cherished me for over twenty years, do. Quite ironic, isn’t it?
“As for your suggestion about Noah…”
The mockery in her expression intensified, and she added, “He was the first to believe the paternity test with Dr. Frazer’s thumbprint on it yesterday.”
Now, she trusted no one in the entire Lawson family.
Suddenly, Sheena recalled Katie hurling mocking taunts at her when she was secretly released from
prison.
“Your ‘gentle lamb‘ has been pretending for so long. I can’t wait for the day you see his true colors! Being betrayed by someone you deeply love must be unbearable! Sheena, I’ll be waiting for the day you have a meltdown after learning the truth!”
Before, Sheena had thought Katie was referring to Elliot.
Now, reconsidering, who among her brothers could Katie be referring to?
The more she thought about it, the colder Sheena’s heart became.
Elliot once again fell into contemplation. Though he only got a brief account from Sheena about yesterday’s events at the Lawson family, based on his previous interactions with her brothers, he believed they were not foolish individuals who would overlook these questionable aspects.
Especially Noah.
Noah was usually reserved, extremely cunning, not easily showing his emotions, and was the pettiest among the three brothers.
Despite his few words, Noah’s affection for Sheena was no less than that of Corey and Howard.
If it were not genuine care for Sheena, Noah would not have gone through the trouble of challenging Elliot and making him experience the pain of childbirth to understand what Sheena might go through.
Even those three toasts were personally prepared by Noah and Howard.
Their thoughtful gestures toward Sheena could not be canceled out by a mere paternity test.
“Nana, perhaps the news came too suddenly for them to react. Once they have time to think it over, I’m sure they’ll believe in you.”
Elliot’s perspective aligned closely with Barbara’s thoughts from yesterday.
Sheena did not want to delve into discussions about her brothers anymore and shifted the topic.
“The incident with Dad falling down the stairs, even though Sheila explained it thoroughly yesterday,

I still feel something’s off. Even if Dad got furious after learning about the paternity test and went into a rage, he wouldn’t lose his composure like that, allowing himself to fall down the stairs easily. Moreover, Lauren and Uncle George were coincidentally not around then.”
Elliot pondered seriously, commenting, “Investigating this matter won’t be easy. In the Lawson family, summoning the staff under the National Investigation Bureau’s orders would be too obvious.”
“You’re right, and we can look into it later. For now, check on Sheila. See where she has been recently and who she’s been close to.”
Sheila’s exquisite face appeared in Sheena’s mind.
“Alright, I’ll instruct Lionel to do that,” Elliot assured.
Sheena tightened her grip on the paternity test report in her hand and continued in a solemn tone, Also, investigate Dr. Frazer. I don’t trust him. Look into his recent activities, his family situation, and financial records.”
“Don’t worry, Lionel is thorough in his work.”
Elliot cupped her face, planting a soft kiss on her lips.
“But right now… I want your comfort.”
He playfully nuzzled her nose, his expectant eyes trying to shift her mood from the worries of these
trivial matters.
Sheena raised an eyebrow, feigning oblivion, letting herself be led away by his diversion.
“Why do you need comfort? Eli, what’s bothering you?”
Elliot buried himself in her embrace, rubbing against her and indulgently playing the soft–sounding victim, “Nana, I’m now as broke as a joke. From now on, I’ll have to rely on you to support me. I only have you, and I want to be spoiled by you…”
If Sheena were to abandon him at this moment, he would truly be left with nothing.
However, he knew Sheena would never do that, never.
