Wait She’s a Billionaire ( Sheena Lawson ) Chapter 178

Chapter 178 

Howard nodded, replying, “Corey located him in the mountains between Farlem and Luivine” 

That was not surprising at all. After all, Corey had his ways in both legal and illegal circles, and his information network was indeed more extensive than Dark Bell’s. 

But… 

“Why would he go there?” 

Howard remained silent, seemingly finding it difficult to speak. 

Sheena connected all the dots and significant events from that period. After careful consideration, she shook her head with a wry smile. “Is he there to recover my body, thinking I’m dead? Can’t he let me find peace even when I’m dead?” 

Howard was caught off guard by her comment and quickly changed the subject, “He got stuck in the mountains, which delayed his return. But he’ll probably be back in Farlem in no more than a week.” 

Sheena’s expression stiffened. 

A week was too soon. If Bethany was not acting swiftly enough and Elijah could return in time to take control, it would be difficult to bankrupt the Freeman Group. 

Howard sensed her worry and asked, “So, what’s your next move?” 

Sheena locked eyes with him and smiled faintly. “Alright, I’ll surprise him on the day he returns!” 

Howard met her intense gaze, but he looked away as he felt slightly guilty. 

Actually, there were two things he kept from her… 

Corey’s people were the ones who trapped Elijah. Since he had never liked that troublemaker, Corey took the chance to teach him a lesson. 

Secondly, Elijah’s search for her was not out of ill intention. He wanted to save her. If Sheena dug a little deeper, she would find that Leon’s hijacking incident had nothing to do with Elijah. However, she was just reluctant to look into it, preferring to believe that Elijah was at fault. Howard wanted to explain, but ultimately said nothing, believing that even if Elijah was not at fault this time, he still owed her for the suffering she endured in the past three years! 

With an approximate timeline for Elijah’s return in mind, Sheena was in high spirits. The next day, she had Sarah disguise herself as a prominent shareholder of Serene Real Estate Limited for a public event. 

The suburban land in the western part of the city had been acquired, but the construction project details needed to be discussed with Sky Legion Construction for cooperation. 

“Tonight, bring that mole from the Freeman Group to the Sky Legion Construction gathering. Make sure to allow him to get the plans privately.” 

Sarah, on the other end of the call, was surprised. “Ms. Lawson, if he tells Bethany and the plan is leaked, they might obstruct our collaboration with Sky Legion Construction.” 

Sheena pursed her lips and smiled. “It depends on whether they’re capable of doing that.” 

“Huh?” 

Sarah could not quite grasp her intentions, so she just followed her instructions obediently. 

That evening… 

Bethany arrived at the Freeman mansion in a great mood, seeking recognition from Faye.  Sᴇaʀᴄh thᴇ FindNʘᴠᴇl.nᴇt website on Gøøglᴇ to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality.

“Auntie Faye, I managed to get my hands on the cooperation plan between Serene Real Estate Limited and Sky Legion Construction.” 

Faye was delighted. “Really?” Then, she eagerly took the proposal from Bethany’s hands and read through it carefully, saying, “Fantastic! Having this proposal will make things much easier.” 

Bethany chimed in, “Now that we know Serene Real Estate Limited’s offer to Sky Legion Construction, we just need to multiply that price several times to outbid them and snatch this cooperation.” 

“Serene Real Estate Limited is a small company to begin with, so they’re short on funds. Once they’ve paid the advance, we can disturb the collaboration. Then, as they won’t have the money or the leverage to secure a better construction materials company, they’ll be left helpless and have to give up the land.” 

Listening to her, Faye could not stop laughing. “Excellent. I’ll leave this matter entirely to you. No matter the cost, the Freeman Group can afford it!” 

Bethany nodded. 

Faye patted her shoulder and looked at her earnestly. “Beth, I trust you the most. Don’t let me down!”
