Wait, She’s a Billionaire (Sheena Lawson)

Chapter 31

As Jennifer continued speaking, her confidence lowered, and her eyes started to look more and more

resentful. However, she seemed hesitant to muster the courage to open the door and confirm her

suspicions.

“Come in and see for yourself.” Sheena shrugged dismissively, forcefully swinging the door wide open

and pointing to the spot where Elijah had been standing just moments ago. “He was right there!”

Jennifer’s heart tightened as she followed Sheena’s finger, only to find nothing but the empty wall.

“Are you playing games with me?” Jennifer snarled, glaring at Sheena.

Sheena also appeared puzzled as Elijah was definitely standing there just now. Did he possess some

kind of supernatural ability?

Observing Sheena’s expression, Jennifer felt that something was amiss. Angrily, she pushed Sheena

aside and began checking each stall, looking closely at every corner.

Sheena stood behind her, also trying to figure out where Elijah might have disappeared to. After

searching through all the stalls, their eyes coincidentally fell on the last stall with its door ajar.

Jennifer took a deep breath before forcefully pushing the door open!

Yet, it was empty.

Meanwhile, Sheena noticed the open window on the right side of the stall and immediately understood

what had happened. She could not believe that the influential figure of the Freeman Group would resort

to jumping out of a window to escape.

The thought made her want to burst into laughter.

Seeing her amused expression, Jennifer felt baffled and became suspicious once again.

“If you were alone inside the restroom, whose phone was ringing just now?”

Sheena waved her hand without answering, implying that Jennifer should figure it out herself.

Frustrated by Sheena’s response, Jennifer glared at her and threatened through gritted teeth, Sheena,

you and Eli are divorced, so stay away from him! I won’t let you off if I catch you trying to seduce him

again!”

Sheena laughed dismissively, retorting, “I never go back to my exes, but if you provoke me, I won’t

hesitate to take everything away from you, including him.”

Jennifer was at a loss for words, intimidated by the coldness in Sheena’s eyes.

As she was leaving, Sheena warned Jennifer, “By the way, keep an eye on your man and make sure

he never approaches me again. Both of you disgust me.”

“Bitch!” Jennifer was furious, but she had no way to retaliate against Sheena. She was furious that

those men she hired last night had failed.

Fuming with anger, she stomped her foot, washed her hands, and left the restroom.

“Jenny.”

A familiar voice called out to her just as she stepped out.

She turned to see Elijah, composed and calm, as he stepped out of the men’s restroom. Instantly, her

heart was at ease. Perhaps she had been too nervous earlier.

Maybe the ringing was coming from the men’s restroom?

“Eli, did you hear what I said in the restroom corridor just now?”

Elijah nodded. “Yes.”

Embarrassment washed over Jennifer. She did not want to leave a bad impression on Elijah because

of her prior shouting.

“I’m sorry. It was my fault. I thought you were inside the women’s restroom, and that’s why I lost control

over my emotions. I promise I won’t doubt you or raise my voice like that again.”

Elijah remained silent, staring at her. As he noticed a faint dark circle under her he suddenly recalled

her late–night visit yesterday and how she stood outside the mansion for almost half the night, which

reminded him of events from years ago.

eyes,

Though it felt like a threat, he had agreed to her engagement request out of a sense of commitment as

a man.

However, Jennifer seemed like a stranger to Elijah lately. At times, he even questioned if she was the

same bright and cheerful girl from years ago. Content protected by Nôv/el(D)rama.Org.

“Jenny, after being abroad for several years, you seem to have changed a lot,” Elijah said

emotionlessly before passing by Jennifer and heading back to the restaurant.
