Since the serious car ident and attack during the day were kept under wraps, Anne’s question seems genuine, as if she was
just passing by to offer her regards.
Feeling weak, Sheena Ignored Anna and kept her eyes closed, pretending to be asleep.
Elliot''s voice turned cold as he said, “It’s nothing serious. Shou
couple of days.”

He casually fiddled with his wristwatch and added indifferently, “Speaking of which, Mr. Karl seems to have quite the luck running
into us, doesn’t he? Despite being in Ardolisia for only a short while, we’ve crossed paths multiple times.”
Ever since that day at the museum, they bumped into each other while shopping, and he even managed to find them when
Sheena was secretly hospitalized.
Was it just a coincidence, or was it on purpose?
Paulo chuckled. “Indeed, it seems like fate. However, both Ms. Lawson and Anne are young, and they enjoy shopping. As for
why we''re here, it’s just for routine check-ups.”
He nced at Sheena andmented, “Ms. Lawson doesn’t look too well. It seems she’s seriously ill. Is it due to overexertion?
If so, why not transfer the Dorvell Corporation''s
cooperation rights to me? | can help her shoulder the burden.”
Elliot red at him.
“When did her affairs be someone else’s concern?”
Paulo’s expression changed. “I misspoke, but since I’m here today, I''d still like to discuss
the cooperation rights of Dorvell Corporation with Ms. Lawson. Won''t she reconsider?”
Sheena abruptly opened her eyes, ready to sit upright.? 2024 N?v/el/Dram/a.Org.
Elliot moved forward, helping her prop up the pillow and lean against the headboard.
“If Mr. Karl wants the cooperation rights, that''s fine.”
With those words, Paulo’s eyes
lit up.
Sheena snorted and swiftly changed her tone. “But you have to do it openly and fairly, to take it from me with your own
capabilities. If you dare to use shady tactics, then you''ll regret it. Two can y in this game, and those cheap tricks will be repaid
tenfold.”
Paulo froze, his golden sideburns twitching slightly, signaling his displeasure.
The atmosphere became tense.
As perceptive as ever, Anne tried to intervene, “Ms. Lawson...”
Before she could finish her sentence, Elliot immediately interjected, “That’s enough. Nana.

seeing you off.”
With the conversation reaching this point, it was time for them to leave. Sticking around would just be embarrassing.
Paulo was not keen on lingering anyway and softly called out, “Anne, darling.”
Anne tactfully moved toward the door.
Midway, she looked back, smiling innocently. “Ms. Lawson, take care of yourself. Your life
has been smooth sailing over the years, and it’s natural to encounter some storms along the way, isn’t it?”
Sheena met her smile with a cold gaze, and her tone was devoid of warmth.
“It''s hard to say when I''ll encounter the storms, but I’m guessing you''ll have your shares sooner than me. Remember to watch
your steps. It''s going to hurt when you fall.”

Paulo stepped forward, wrapping his arm around Anne’s waist and leading her out of the
ward.
As the door closed, a chilling glint flickered in Sheena’s eyes as she nced at the fruits
and flowers on the bedside table.
“Throw them out and don’t even touch them. Get them out of my sight immediately.”
Even if she did not say it, Elliot would do the same.
He quickly summoned a nurse, who promptly discarded all the gifts brought by Paulo and Anne, even disinfecting the bedside
table.
“Nana, how sure you that Paulo is behind the attack?”

Sheena’s expression turned serious. “Initially, it was only forty percent, but after they
showed up at the hospital, entered my ward, and offered their insincereforting, I’d say It''s now sixty percent.”
