After their divorce, she had intended to part ways and become strangers for the rest of their lives…
Chapter 236
However, Erin, Faye, and Jennifer repeatedly harmed her, and Elijah came to provoke her, even attempting to kill her for Jennifer. None of these people wanted to let her live a peaceful wife.
Sheena was not the type to turn the other cheek or remain silent when attacked, so was wrong for her to make them pay the deserved price?
As she pondered, Ford finished a call and reported to her, “Ms. Lawson, Wendy, the resistant from the Angle Group, says there’s an urgent work matter for you.”
Sheena glanced at the still–lit emergency room lights, hesitating
Beside her, Owen suddenly knelt and said, “Ms. Lawson, it was my fault. My foolish mistake almost harmed Mr. Freeman. I’m willing to stay at the hospital to take care of Mr. Freeman. Once the recovers, I’ll accept the suspension punishment and return home.”
Sheena gave it a thought and replied, “Fine, you stay here. Let me know if there’s any news about him. Ford, let’s go.”
With that, Sheena hastily left the hospital with Ford and headed straight to Angle Group. The troublesome incident caused by Faye had delayed her talent show’s final plan for two days. Once returned to her office, she immediately immersed herself in work, focusing all her attention on the
tasks.
By 8 p.m., all the employees had left, but her office lights were still on. Howard, learning she was working late, came down from the top floor to check on her.
“Mana, it’s late. We can finalize the plan for the talent show tomorrow. There are still several days
before the live broadcast.”
Sheena grunted a soft response, but her fingers were still tapping away at the keyboard..
Howard knew he could not persuade her. He sighed and was about to leave when he noticed thatcher complexion was not quite right.
*Nana, did you fall sick? Why do you look so pale?”
Sheena was caught off guard by the question, and she stopped typing. She remembered the col water bath she had taken the previous night. That was probably the reason for her slightly pale complexion.
“I’m fine. You go about your business. I’ll finish up here and head home.”
“Alright.”
Howard’s expression turned serious. He could read his sister like the back of his hand and knear the was more to the situation than met the eye.
When Ford was summoned by Howard for a private conversation, Ford immediately kneeled

Lawson, please spare me! I truly didn’t know. Perhaps it’s because Ms. Sheena has been… busy these past few days, often working late nights.”
Ford was sandwiched in the middle, feeling quite torn. Perhaps Howard noticed his distressed expression, so he did not press further.
“Alright, you continue to ensure Ms. Sheena’s safety. Keep a close eye on that Elijah guy. If he dares to harm Nana again, regardless of whether she agrees or not, I’ll make sure he’s done for. Got it?”
“Yes, Mr. Lawson.”
That night, Sheena did not return to Ocean Avenue, planning to pull an all–nighter in the office.
Ford knocked on the door.
“Ms. Sheena, Mr. Freeman was moved out of the emergency room an hour ago and into a regular ward. He’s awake now. Would you like to visit him?”
Sheena hesitated and said, “No need. If he’s awake, let Owen take care of him. When he’s physically recovered, send him back to Ocean Avenue.”
“But…”
Ford did not leave, wearing a troubled expression.
“What’s wrong? Did I not make myself clear enough?” Sheena asked.
“No, it’s just that Mr. Freeman keeps refusing the nurses to administer an IV after waking up. No matter how they try to persuade him, it’s not working.”
Sheena sighed. “He’s just a patient now. Can’t you handle a physically weakened man? He refuses, and you just let him? Can’t you restrain him if needed?”
Ford remained silent, unsure how to respond to that.
Was Sheena always this straightforward and forceful in her actions?
