As Sheena emerged from her room, Elliot was waiting for her in the stairwell.
Seeing her red eyes and tear–stained face, he felt a pang of sympathy, but he said nothing, only opening his arms to her.
Sheena walked over and burled herself In his embrace.
Feeling his steady heartbeat, she felt a sense of belonging, and the strange emotions in her heart gradually calmed.
Elliot held her tighter, patting and comforting her back.
He asked, “Are you tired? If you’re feeling really uncomfortable, we can go home.”
Sheena shook her head, refusing.
She had not dealt with Lauren and Sheila yet, so she would not go back!
Elliot understood what she was thinking and stopped persuading her further. Instead, he held her hand tightly and descended the stairs together.
Barbara was standing in the living room on the first floor, tears shimmering in her eyes.
Clearly, she had also cried.
Upon seeing Sheena and Elliot coming down, she looked full of guilt, tears streaming down her face in despair.
“Nana, this breaks my heart… I didn’t even know… I’m sorry, really sorry!”
Sheena was always clear about right and wrong.
Barbara, her sister–in–law, had protected her many times and genuinely treated her like her own sister. Hence, she would not blame Barbara for Corey’s actions.
“It’s not your fault. You were kept in the dark about these things too. I won’t blame you, don’t need to apologize on Corey’s behalf,” Sheena said.

“Okay.” Barbara nodded and quickly went upstairs.

In the garden, Shella and Lauren were being watched closely, unable to move from their seats.
As Sheena approached the front door of the mansion, she could see Lauren’s nervous and trembling demeanor from afar.
The thought of Albert in the bedroom fueled her anger even more.
She marched into the garden without hesitation and, without a word, grabbed Lauren’s well- groomed hair and pulled her toward the mansion.
“Ouch! Sheena, let go! I’m your stepmother! Your elder! You can’t treat me like this!” Lauren grimaced in pain, hysterically shouting.
Sheena sneered. “Perhaps before, but not anymore!”
Her eyes suddenly turned fierce, and she forcefully pulled Lauren’s hair.
Lauren felt as though her scalp was about to be ripped off.
Having been pampered in the Lawson family for so many years and lacking any fighting skills, she could not break free from Sheena’s grip.
Sheena dragged Lauren all the way, entering the mansion and heading upstairs to Albert’s room.
The bedroom door opened.
Albert lay peacefully, his face wearing an oxygen mask, with monitoring devices beside him.
He was already in a vegetative state, not moving at all.
Sheena kicked Lauren’s back knee, forcing her to kneel by Albert’s bedside, still tightly gripping her
hair.
“Lauren, look at this clearly! This man in the bed married you despite all his children’s objections! Your years of luxury and comfort in the Lawson family were all thanks to this man in front of you!” Sheena exclaimed.
“How could you bear to push him down the stairs? Have you lost all conscience?”
