Chapter 254

Lionel was stunned, exclaiming, “Mr. Freeman! What are you doing? This is evidence that proves you

didn’t harm Ms. Sheena!”

Elijah remained indifferent. “If I show her this evidence, the tiny bit of trust I’ve managed to build with

her will be completely gone.”

Lionel did not understand and watched the shredded papers with a pang of heartache. He had worked

hard to gather this information.

Elijah did not even glance at the pile of paper. “When you handed me this evidence just now, I realized

that with Sheena and her brothers‘ power, there’s no way they couldn’t find out the truth. It’s not that

she didn’t investigate. She had already convinced herself that I was the culprit.”

Elijah sighed, realizing that Sheena truly did not trust him at all. Rebuilding her trust, bit by bit, was

no easy task.

“Moreover, if I had given her this evidence, she would have known about everything I’ve been doing

behind her back–investigating and meeting with Leon. She would be even more suspicious of me in

the future.”

Lionel understood now, feeling sympathy for him. “So, you’ll have to take the blame for this alone…

Leon deserves more than a hundred lashes. He should’ve gotten two hundred!”

Half a month later.

The Freeman Group gradually recovered from a period of decline, and various projects started to pick

up. When Sarah handed over the data to Sheena, she was pleased.

“Considering the current situation, the Freeman Group’s financial status has stabilized. We can start

planning to approach the Carver Group for the outstanding payment.”

Sarah nodded. “Miss, what’s your plan?”

Sheena smirked. “From now on, snatch any business within our capacity that the Carver Group is

eyeing!”

Suddenly, the assistant knocked and said, “Ms. Sheena, Mr. Upton is here.”

“Got it.”

Sarah left the office, exchanging polite nods with Colin, who had just entered. Once Sarah was

completely out, Colin sat opposite Sheena’s workspace.

Sheena did not even look at Colin. “What brings you here today, Colin?”

Colin smiled, blushing slightly. “Sheena, did you forget? My birthday is in three days.”

Indeed, Sheena had completely forgotten. “So, you want me to wish you a happy birthday in advance?

I remember your parents used to host a party for your birthday. How long are you planning to stay in

Svelton this time?”

Colin’s blush deepened. “Those were things from when I was a kid. My parents said unless I bring

someone back, there’s no need for me to return.”

Sheena instantly understood his motive for coming today. “You’re the beloved heir of the Upton family.

How could Uncle and Auntie not want you home? Don’t use these tricks to fool me.‘

Being exposed did not discourage Colin. Instead, he said, “I know you won’t return to Svelton for now,

but how about coming out for dinner with me in three days? Consider it your birthday gift to me.

Shouldn’t be a problem, right?”

As a friend, his request was not unreasonable, and Sheena had no reason to refuse, so she agreed.

Meanwhile, Lionel entered Elijah’s office on the 23rd floor, reporting, “Mr. Freeman, I heard Mr. Upton is

here again, having a private conversation with Ms. Sheena on the top floor.”

“Private conversation?” Elijah frowned.

Whenever Colin showed up, trouble was sure to follow.

Elijah quickly stood up, pushed open the office door, and took the elevator to the top floor.

Colin had just left Sheena’s office and was waiting for the elevator to go down. As the doors opened,

they came face to face.

Colin smiled and spoke first, “Mr. Freeman, what a coincidence.”

Elijah’s face remained cold, and his tone indifferent. “It’s no coincidence. I came here to find you.”
