Sheena could not stand Lauren’s antics, and she grabbed the knife used to cut the steak from the
table, reached across the long dining table, and pressed it against Lauren’s neck.
Lauren was terrified. “Sheena! If you hurt me, you’re going to get in trouble too!”
With so many people watching, Barbara tried to intervene, “Nana…”
Corey held Barbara’s hand, signaling her to stay out of it.
The couple silently watched the drama unfold.
Lauren felt helpless as the knife touched her skin, causing a slight prickling sensation. She dared not.
move.
Seeing her hesitation, Sheena sneered, “Other than talking big and clinging to my dad, what else can
you do?”
Lauren was at a loss for words.
“If you can keep a low profile and control yourself, I might let you enjoy thest wave of luxury before I
take over the family business. But if you provoke me…”
Sheena’s voice trailed off, her eyes sharp as she leaned closer to Lauren and whispered, “I’ll have
someone tie you up and throw you into the deep mountains to feed the wild boars.”
Lauren’s eyes widened in fear. “You wouldn’t dare!”
“Try me. I’ve always beenwless,” Sheena replied, locking eyes with her with a ruthless and icy gaze.
Lauren fell silent.
In the study, Elliot assisted Albert in finding books from the top shelf.
“Is it this one? Or that one?” Elliot asked.
Albert put on his reading sses, focused on the row of books, and said, “The one in the middle.”
Elliot retrieved the book and handed it to him.
Albert’s wrinkled hands gently stroked the book cover as he spokeposedly, “Originally, I agreed to
your engagement with her because I admired your decisive nature in business. How has it been living
together these past few days?”
Elliot stood attentively, feeling a hint of confusion.
Was Albert feeling dissatisfied with him now?
“Nana takes care of me well, and
I’m grateful for that. Uncle Albert, don’t worry. Nana is the Lawson family’s precious sweetheart and the
one I want to cherish as my partner. I’ll spend the rest of my life taking good care of her.”

Despite Elliot’s heartfelt words, Albert became increasingly serious, even shaking his head and sighing.
“Uncle Albert?”
“It’s good that you think this way, but Sheena is a spoilt child. She always wants the upper hand in
everything, argues when she wants to, and doesn’t respect her elders. With her personality, she’s
prone to setbacks. So, I’m looking for a partner who can knock her down a peg, guide her to be more
obedient,” Albert exined.
Elliot pressed his thin lips together, unsure how to respond immediately. He could not fathom why a
father would not want his son–inw to pamper his daughter.
Was that not the usual expectation?
Albert, on the other hand, seemed to wish for Elliot to take a firm approach with Sheena. For twenty-
three years, no one had managed to tame Sheena’s fiery temperament. Nheless, he knew that it
was a nearly impossible task.
Albert continued, “Sheena usually listens to Corey, and only he can keep her in check. I hope you can
learn from Corey in this aspect.”
Was Albert suggesting he learn from Corey?
Elliot and Corey had apetitive rtionship, and Corey had previously sent someone to kill him. If it
were not for Sheena, they might have be enemies.
“Uncle, actually… Nana listens to me in significant matters.”

Albert immediately exposed Elliot’s lie. “You don’t need to pretend. I’ve heard about your matters.”
Elliot was perplexed.
What rumors were circting about him and Sheena?
Albert continued, “I’m getting old, and I might only have a few years left in me. If you can’t fulfill my
wishes, I’ll have to reconsider your engagement with Sheena.”
In an instant, Elliot adopted a military stance and knelt, looking earnestly at Albert in the wheelchair.
“Uncle Albert, rest assured. I’ll properly guide Nana and make her a well–behaved and virtuous wife!”
