Chapter 839


    Upon hearing Sheena inquire about her face, the girl instinctively covered the bandaged cheek with


    her hand.


    “Ms. Lawson, my name is La Walker. I injured my left cheek a couple of days ago when I fell


    downstairs. But rest assured, Ms. Lawson, it won’t affect my work, and the wound will heal soon,” La


    exined.


    Her voice sounded hoarse and somewhat unpleasant.


    Sheena, still cradling the Adora, gently cooed and rocked her.


    She averted her gaze from La, saying calmly, “You’re not suitable. You can leave.“.


    Lionel moved to escort La out, but she remained rooted to the spot, unwilling to ept Sheena’s


    decision.


    “Ms. Lawson, you didn’t even ask about my professional qualifications. Are you rejecting me because


    of my looks? Are you judging people solely based on appearances?” La challenged, her tone


    defiant.


    Sheena frowned slightly, raising her head again to meet La’s eyes.


    Sensing Sheena’s growing anger, Lionel hurried to pull La away.


    “What are you saying? Who goes job–hunting with such an attitude? It’s not about your appearance.


    You’re just trying to guilt–trip us.”


    Lionel dragged La a few steps toward the door.


    Sheena, still in bed, finally spoke up. “There are four reasons why I don’t want you.


    “Your voice is unpleasant, which might scare the babies, you don’t look at me with respect, your gaze is


    piercing andcks warmth, and most importantly, I simply don’t like you. Therefore, I don’t need to


    assess yourpetence.”


    Sheena’s tone was matter–of–fact, cutting through the air like a knife.


    Lionel chimed in, “Got that? You should ept it now. Please leave.”

    With no other option, La turned and left.


    As she reached the doorway, she nced back with a sly smile and taunted, “Ms. Lawson, are you


    truly at peace?”


    Then, La left.


    Lionel stood in ce, momentarily stunned before quickly apologizing to Sheena.


    “I’m sorry, Sheena. I’ll be more cautious next time and not bring in any oddballs.”


    Sheena made a casual acknowledgment and continued to soothe Adora in her arms.

    However, the girl’s parting words echoed unexpectedly in her mind, reying over and over.


    The look La gave her before leaving…


    Sheena suddenly realized something and turned to Lionel with urgency, shouting, “Quick! Go after that


    girl who just left. Make sure to bring her back!”


    “Yes, I’m on it!” Lionel replied promptly, his expression serious as he dashed out of the room.


    Feeling a sudden unease, Sheena hurriedly called Elliot, who was diligently working in the study.


    “Yes, honey?”


    “Where’s Asher?”


    Elliot nced down at the baby sleeping in his arms. “He’s with me. What’s up?”


    Sheena breathed a sigh of relief. “Nothing, just carry on with your work.”


    Ending the call, she nced out the window, hoping she was just overthinking.


    Fifteen minutester, Lionel returned. “Sheena, I couldn’t find her. She left in a hurry and


    disappeared after leaving the Jenkins estate. I checked a few surveince cameras, but no luck. She


    vanished from the camera’s blind spots.”


    A cold tension filled the room.


    Sheena pondered for a moment.


    Did La avoid the surveince cameras intentionally or unintentionally?


    “Which agency did you get her from? Dig into her work records thoroughly. We need to find her. I want


    to question her myself,” Sheena ordered sternly.

    “Yes, Sheena, I’ll handle it.”


    Later that evening, the two babies slept in the middle of the big bed, separating Sheena and Elliot on


    either side.


    Elliot asionallyforted the babies while stealing nces at Sheena, who seemed lost in thought


    as she stared at Adora.
