Chapter 842
“Our shares in both the Jenkins and Lawson Groups are currently the largest holdings. Once we give them to the children, it’s like telling everyone they’re the designated heirs, which inevitably invites some malicious intentions,” Sheena explained.
“Eli, it was because I was carrying the heir’s identity that so many things happened before. I’m afraid Asher and Adora will suffer the same fate in the future,” she continued, expressing her concern.
Elliot understood her feelings well.
He quickly changed Adora into a fresh diaper and placed her on the bed before moving to embrace
Sheena.
“What’s your plan then?”
Leaning against his shoulder, Sheena glanced at the two babies beside them and said, “Adora can take my surname, but I want to return the shares I hold in the Jenkins Group to you.”
She felt it was not a good idea for the babies to hold so many shares at such a young age, as it could attract unwanted attention and jealousy from others.
Elliot cupped her face and kissed her lips, agreeing to her decision. However, his kiss met with no response from Sheena.
Perplexed, he pulled back and looked at her.
“Nana?”
“Ummm…” Sheena hesitated slightly, then asked seriously, “Honey, did you wash your hands?”
Elliot had already cleaned Adora’s bottom, so it was only natural that he had washed his hands!
“Are you disgusted at me already?” Elliot stared at her, feeling aggrieved.
Sheena suppressed a laugh, cupping his face in her hands.
“Just kidding!”
Then, Sheena leaned in to deepen the kiss they had just shared.
Elliot melted into her embrace, resting his head on her stomach.
“You’re too irresistible, honey…”
Just a kiss, and he had already succumbed.
When would he get to enjoy some more intimate moments?
Sheena sensed his thoughts and stroked his jawline, smiling coyly.
After indulging him for a few minutes, Sheena suddenly remembered the matter at hand and asked, Weren’t you in a video conference just now? Is it over?”

Elliot snapped back to reality. “Oh! The meeting!”
He almost forgot about his work!
Elliot carried Asher and hurried downstairs.
Sheena watched him go, shaking her head with a helpless smile,

As evening approached, Lionel arrived with news about Layla,
“Sheena, I’ve thoroughly investigated Layla, and her identity checks out. There are no issues.”
Sheena furrowed her brow. “So, she’s indeed Layla Walker herself, and her background and experiences are real?”
Lionel nodded.
Sheena’s doubts remained.
If that was the case, then Layla had no connection to her.
Why did she say that when she left?
Lionel continued, “I’ve located her, and she confessed that someone contacted her before, paid her, and instructed her to behave this way. Every word was scripted.”
“Who contacted her?” Sheena’s expression turned serious.
Lionel shook his head again. “It was through a dark web account, untraceable and anonymous.”
Another dark web connection.
It reminded her of the scandal involving Skye’s leaked photos, a similar technique.
However, why would someone go to such lengths just to deliver a message to her?
Was it a protest?
Could it be Sheila, who disappeared eight months ago after jumping into the river?
Sheena pondered for a moment before issuing an order to Lionel, “Assign two more people to keep an eye on Layla and see if she exhibits any unusual behavior.
“Furthermore, increase the number of bodyguards at E&S Haven and rotate shifts to ensure someone is always on guard.‘
