    Chapter 407


    Sheena let out a slight sigh. Lost in her thoughts, she unconsciously finished an entire bottle of red


    wine.


    Ford noticed that she wanted to open another bottle and promptly intervened, Miss, since thest time


    you drank too much and hurt your stomach, the doctor advised you to go easy on alcohol. You should


    only have a small amount, not too much.”


    “It’s just two bottles, and considering my alcohol tolerance, I won’t get drunk,”


    Sheena insisted.


    Ford sighed, “Miss, don’t forget, your tolerance has decreased since thest time. You can’t handle as


    much as before.”


    Frustrated from being stopped twice, Sheena pushed away the sses and bottles before her, saying,


    “Forget it! Take them away, take them away!”


    She folded her hands, repressing her annoyance, and closed her eyes to sleep.


    Ford chuckled, calming her, and signaled the other bodyguards. Soon, Sheena’s table was cleared.


    By the time the ne arrived in Svelton, it was already evening. Sheena was contemting whether to


    return home directly when she received a call from Gabrielle.


    Gabrielle was overjoyed after learning that Sheena had disclosed her identity and returned to Svelton.


    “Nana! You’re finally back. How abouting out to Hedone Bar tonight? Lots of old friends are eager


    to see you! Don’t you miss them?”


    Sheena had indeed not seen her childhood ymates for many years, and she was not too keen on


    returning directly to the Lawson family, so she agreed.


    She only brought Ford along, having Paul and John arrange a hotel and settle in for the night.


    Sawyer went back to inform Albert about the matter.


    When Sheena arrived at the bar, everyone was already there. In addition to Gabrielle and Colin, Naomi


    Jenkins, the daughter of Roger Jenkins, the fifth son of the Jenkins family, was there.


    Several other old friends were also present, totaling over ten people.


    As Sheena pushed open the door to the private room, Gabrielle and Naomi hid


    behind the door, and confetti burst forth with a bang, colorful ribbons fluttering and covering the room.


    “Wee back!”


    Watching their theatrics, Sheena genuinely smiled and replied, “Thank you.”


    Gabrielle linked arms with her, pulling her to the main seat on the couch.


    “You’re most wee, Nana! You might not know this, but it broke all our hearts when we received


    news of your death. Now that you’ve finally decided to reveal your identity, it’s fantastic!”


    The friends were having a st, toasting one round after another.


    Gabrielle and Naomi sat on either side of Sheena, both younger than her and with whom she had a


    good rtionship.


    Thinking about what Sawyer mentioned on the ne, Sheena asked Naomi, “I heard that the eldest


    grandson of the Jenkins family is in charge now. Has he caused any trouble for your family?” N?velDrama.Org ? 2024.


    “No, Dad has never been interested in power struggles. During that time, Uncle Peter’s family and Elliot


    were fiercelypeting. So, when Elliot took control, he treated our family fairly well,” Naomi


    exined.


    Sheena affectionately patted Naomi’s head, smiling reassuringly. “That’s good to hear.”


    “However, Elliot has had a tough time. He came back from a mission in the military six months ago,


    covered in blood and seriously injured. He was reportedly coughing up blood every day, which scared


    Grandpa. But he’s really amazing. Despite all that, he managed to snatch control back from Uncle


    Peter’s family. I really admire him,” Naomi added.


    Sheena remained silent. She had just arrived in Svelton, and Elliot’s name had alreadye up in two


    different conversations, piquing her curiosity about this.


    person.


    While she was contemting, Gabrielle’s seat was quietly swapped with someone nearby.


    Sheena turned to see Colin approaching with a raised ss.


    “Sheena, I haven’t seen you in almost half a year, and you’re still as beautiful as ever,” he said, lifting


    his ss toward her.


    Sheena smiled faintly and clinked sses with him. “Mr. Upton, when did the Upton family find you and


    bring you back to Svelton from abroad?”


    Colin’s expression froze.


    He could sense that Sheena seemed more distant than before. Furthermore, the mention of this matter


    infuriated him!
