Chapter 48
Sue blushed, realizing that Sheena was humiliating her. However, she did not back down and retorted
loudly, “Ms. Sheena, it seems that you have some personal motives behind this proposal. Otherwise,
why would you be so defensive? You’ve only been in thepany for a few days, and you’re already
pushing for such a costly proposal. It’s quite suspicious. Mr. Lawson, I suggest conducting a thorough
investigation into her!”

Howard mmed his coffee cup on the table with a loud thud. “I agree with this proposal.”
A buzz of murmurs filled the room, and everyone was looking at Sheena in a different light. However,
only Sue was ted, seemingly oblivious to who Howard was referring to.
“Really? Mr. Lawson, do you actually agree with me to investigate Ms. Sheena?”
A stifled chuckle slipped out from someone.
Everyone knew who Howard’s words were directed at, except for Sue, who seemed oblivious.
Howard scowled, “If you say one more word, you can leave immediately, and don’t bothering in
tomorrow.”
Sue’s face turned pale, the stark contrast between her expectations and reality leaving her stunned.
It was only after a gentle reminder from someone nearby that she reluctantly sat back down.
The meeting continued, focusing on the detailed boration of Sheena’s proposal.
Sue listened quietly, but she wanted to find a ce to hide from the humiliation. At that moment, she
was filled with jealousy toward Sheena, and it felt almost suffocating.
Why was Howard not interested in her?
If she had an affair with Howard, she would be the one enjoying his protection and affection!
Suddenly, the balding Henry appeared in Sue’s mind.
Just the idea of having to secretly put up with someone as disgusting as Henry made her feel even
more resentful.
Yes! Henry!
Sue believed that given Howard’s attitude toward Sheena, something fishy must be going on with
Henry’s mysterious disappearance, which definitely had something to do with Sheena!
Sue brooded over that for a while.
Thetter half of the meeting proceeded smoothly without Sue’s interruption.
After Howard announced the adjournment, he and Yuri were the first to leave.
The others followed suit, gradually emptying the conference room.
As Sheena packed up to leave, her document folder was suddenly held down by a hand with bright red
nails.
Sue smiled and said, “I have something I’d like to discuss with you, Ms. Sheena. Please stay for a
while.”
Sheena did not say anything, but she did not refuse either. Both of them remained in the meeting room
until most of the people had left.
Sue whispered, “Why didn’t Henry attend the meeting? Where did he go? Did you have something to
do with this?”
“Henry? Well, he’s never returning to thepany again,” Sheena said casually.
“What?”
Sue widened her eyes in disbelief, gripping Sheena’s arm tightly and shaking her. “He was fired by the
board? Did you do this? Why would you do such a thing?”
It was unbelievable! They just had a discussionst night about how to deal with this scheming woman,
and now he was suddenly dismissed without any warning.
Sheena frowned and pushed Sue’s hand away disdainfully, saying, “He’s suspected of embezzlement
and engaging in inappropriate arrangements with female employees. Thepany kicked him out, and
he’ll probably spend a decade or more behind bars.”
As she spoke, Sheena took a wet wipe, calmly cleaning her wrist where Sue had touched her, and then
wiped her document folder. Then, she smirked. “This is confidential, and no one in thepany except
me would dare tell you. However, since we’ve worked together for a few days…”
Sue backed off in disbelief, feeling her scalp tingle. “So, aboutst night… Did you know everything?
Were you setting me up?”
Sheena did not answer but simply walked over and sat at the main seat, crossing her legs and unting
her exquisite figure.
Despite being slightly shorter than Sue while seated, Sheena exuded a powerful presence, easily
surpassing Sue in every way.
Shena teased, “Sue, since you miss Henry so much, why don’t you keep himpany?”
