Seeing her nod, Elliot immediately instructed, “As a precaution, send Austin to the secret. interrogation room for easy
examinationter.”
“Got it!”
Lionel turned and left, heading to the garden where he took out his phone and promptly contacted the warden at Svelton Prison.
Elliot pulled Sheena into his arms as soon as Lionel left,forting her.
“Once we redo the paternity test, this should be resolved. You don’t have to lose sleep over it every night anymore.”
“Mmhmm,” Sheena replied softly.
Sheena recalled the note Howard gave her earlier and the events at MC, feeling a sudden rush ofplex emotions.
She mentioned that there were two people behind her, likely with considerable status and influence in Froania, and they were
from the Lawson family.
Judging from Howard’s behavior today, she could probably rule him out...
However, regardless of who was behind the scenes, this person was still her family.
Sheena felt a sense of emptiness wash over her.
Lost in thought, Sheena was startled when Lionel burst into the room again, looking anxious.
“There’s trouble at the prison! The warden reported that Austin suddenly began foaming at the mouth and convulsingte at night
two days ago. He was rushed to the infirmary but died despite their attempt to save him.”
Elliot''s relief disappeared instantly, his handsome face turning grim.
“How’s that possible? Did someone poison him?”
Lionel sighed and shook his head.
“No, ording to the doctor, Austin had a history of epilepsy before entering prison, but he hadn’t had any seizures for years.
“It''s unclear why he suddenly had an episode, and it happened in the middle of the night. The guards didn’t discover it in time,
and he died from airway obstruction.”
A heavy silence fell over the living room.
Finally, it was Sheena who broke the tense atmosphere.
“Even if he’s dead, we can still use his samples for the paternity test, right? Is the body still avable?

Lionel’s expression grew increasingly dark, and he shook his head again.
“It happened the day before yesterday. Because of Austin’s history of epilepsy, his death was deemed a natural seizure, and he
was cremated already. Now, there’s nothing left...
Probably just ashes.”
Sheena’s heart sank.
Unfortunately, ashes could not be used for paternity testing.
At this point, the situation reached a standstill, and all the progress made earlier was suddenly reset,
Sheena sat there, feeling lost and plunged into silence.
Seeing her like this, Elliot felt a deep sense of remorse, almost at the brink of tears.
“I''m sorry, Nana. It’s my fault. | should''ve sent someone to the prison to guard Austin.”
Sheena smiled wryly and spoke in a calm, gentle voice, “It''s not your fault. Even if you had sent someone to guard him, the
situation would have been the same if he had a seizure in the middle of the night.”
He still kept his head low, overwhelmed with guilt.
Sheena quickly hugged him,forting him, “It’s really okay. Let''s try another approach. There must be other ways!”
There was only one day left until the return banquet prepared by the Lawson family for She.

Elliot looked at her lonely figure and sighed silently.
Just as he was about to go over andfort her, there was a knock on the mansion’s door downstairs.
Why would someone be knocking at their door in the dead of night?
Was it Lionel?
Did something else happen?
Sheena and Elliot exchanged nces and went downstairs together to open the door.
As the door opened, they saw a man standing outside, drenched by the rain.

Strands of hair fell across his forehead, dripping with water. His shirt clung tightly to his body. revealing his muscr abdomen.
Heaving heavy breaths, he had clearly sneaked into the garden unnoticed.
In the bright light, Sheena recognized the man’s face and froze.
“Noah?”
