Chapter 52
Of course, Sue thought it was absurd that Katie was scheming to harm her future sister–in–law in every
way possible. However, Sue did not voice this thought.
After all, as much as she despised Sheena, she also resented Katie.
How could she stand to watch the two of them live harmoniously in the future?
“Do you hate her that much?”
Her exaggerated smile, coupled with her messy, dry hair and bloodshot eyes, made her look like an
eerie woman who had escaped from a mental asylum.
Katie steadied herself before saying, “Of course. Don’t you want to get back at her too?” “Alright then.
I’ll tell you.” Sue chuckled and leaned closer to the intercom. In a hushed voice, she continued, “She’s
actually backed by powerful support. If it comes to a real confrontation, you might not win. However, I
do know that she’s divorced. Perhaps you can start from there.‘
Katie’s eyes lit up. “Great! Don’t worry. I’ll help you settle the score with Sheena!”
After saying that, she got up and left without looking back.
Sue watched as Katie left, and her smile grew more and more manic.
It was a pity she could not witness their showdown!
As soon as she was out, Katie immediately made a phone call. “Find out who Sheena’s ex- husband is
and get me all the details. Quickly!”
”
After waiting patiently for half an hour, a file was sent to her phone. Katie opened it, and as she read,
her initially furrowed brow gradually relaxed, staring at a name as she smirked.
“Jennifer Moore?”
The Freeman Group’s CEO office.
Elijah rubbed his temples with his eyes slightly closed.
Leon stood respectfully before him, reporting, “A couple of days ago, Ms. Freeman caused a scene.
The security guards didn’t dare to let her out, and she’s been unusually quiet and obedient these days.
However, she did make a few calls to Ms. Moore, but Ms. Moore didn’t answer.”
Elijah opened his eyes. The last few words caught his attention.
“Why didn’t Jenny answer?”
Erin and Jennifer were very close, often exchanging calls. However, ever since Sheena caused a Content is © 2024 NôvelDrama.Org.
scene at the Freeman mansion, Jennifer has stopped mentioning Erin in front of him.
Elijah frowned, confused by the situation.
Leon explained, “Perhaps she’s just busy and missed Ms. Freeman’s calls.”
Missing a call occasionally was normal, but multiple times in a row?
Was she deliberately avoiding something?
Something felt off about this situation.
Elijah stood up and said, “I haven’t seen Jenny in a few days. Let’s go to the apartment.”
Leon replied, “Ms. Moore isn’t at the apartment. She’s out.”
Did she go out?
Maybe he was just overthinking things.
Elijah returned to his seat.
Leon noticed the faint dark circles around Elijah’s eyes, and he could not help but ask, “Mr. Freeman,
have you not been resting well lately? You don’t look too good.”
Elijah rubbed his temple, feeling a bit irritable. Lately, he had been staying at the mansion. Each time
he returned, no matter how late it was, Sheena would appear in his mind.
There she was, wearing an apron while cleaning the floor. Upon seeing him, she would smile at him.
Then, there was the memory of her bending over to sweep leaves in the garden, as well as the image
of her in bed that night…
It was all messing with his sleep.
Yet, when he woke up and reached for a glass of water, he would think of the scene at the restaurant
entrance, with Howard gently massaging her legs.
Seeing that he was getting gloomier, Leon asked worriedly, “Mr. Freeman?”
