Wait, She’s a Billionaire (Sheena Lawson)

Chapter 66

women.

Jennifer felt a rush of relief upon seeing him, and she clung to him, sobbing uncontrollably while

pointing at Sheena. “Eli, you have to believe me! It was her who did this to me! It must be her! My

family paid four million dollars for the First Snow! There’s no way this can be a fake! She must’ve

switched the gowns when I wasn’t looking!”

Elijah listened quietly, looking at Sheena with an unreadable gaze. Content protected by Nôv/el(D)rama.Org.

Kennedy grabbed the microphone, attempting to salvage the situation. “I’m sorry about this, everyone.

Jennifer is feeling quite emotional tonight, and I’ll have Vanessa take her back to her room to calm

down before she returns. As for the knockoff First Snow, we are just as puzzled as all of you. The four

million dollars were indeed transferred to Ms. Zoe’s account, which is verifiable. However, I assure you

I’ll thoroughly investigate this matter and provide an explanation for this incident!”

He glanced at the audience and bowed apologetically before giving a stern look to Vanessa, signaling

her to remove Jennifer from the scene.

Vanessa nodded and quickly ushered Jennifer away with the help of the servants. As Jennifer’s crying

voice faded, the atmosphere in the hall remained charged with controversy.

Kennedy scanned the crowd, and his dissatisfaction with Jennifer grew stronger. He had thought that

bringing this illegitimate daughter back to the family would save the Moore family, but it seemed he had

brought back a disaster instead.

This banquet escalated into a massive embarrassment right from the start!

He was truly regretting his decision.

With the spotlight no longer focused on the stage and the crowd engrossed in discussing Jennifer’s

situation, the attention on Sheena lessened.

Sheena turned around and got ready to leave the stage, but she caught someone’s unwavering gaze

fixed on her.

Elijah’s lips were tightly pursed, and it was hard to tell if he was angry or lost in thought.

Feeling annoyed by his intense stare, Sheena raised an eyebrow and looked back at him. With a

teasing smile, she asked, “What’s wrong? Are you bothered that your fiancee was embarrassed by

me?”

Elijah’s unwavering gaze still bore into her, assessing her from head to toe.

Sheena could not decipher the meaning behind his gaze, nor was she interested in doing so. She was

about to leave when he spoke again, his deep voice carrying a hint of concern.

“How are you holding up?”

She thought his words felt oddly out of character.

“I’m perfectly fine. I just witnessed someone making a big fool out of herself,” she replied. Then, she

went to find Skye.

However, Sheena could sense a lingering gaze fixed on her from behind, causing her to pick up her

pace.

With Jennifer no longer causing a scene, Kennedy resumed his role as the attentive host, and

gradually, the guests‘ discussions started to die down. After all, they were still on someone else’s turf,

and it was inappropriate to be too rude.

In about an hour, the banquet’s atmosphere returned to its harmonious state.

As a result of the recent events, Skye had become Sheena’s enthusiastic fan, staring at her in

awe.

“Your Majesty, do you need a loyal sidekick? I’m sweet, obedient, and quite a catch. Will you

reconsider my offer?”

Elijah was mingling close by, discreetly observing the situation. Upon hearing Skye’s words, his

expression darkened instantly.

Sheena, on the other hand, used her fingertip to nudge Skye’s head away playfully. “Go away. I’m not

interested in immature kids who are too young to get married.”

Elijah’s demeanor returned to normal, and he continued to engage in pleasant conversation with other

CEOS.

However, Skye’s enthusiasm quickly faded as he muttered in frustration, “I don’t care! I’ll be old enough

to marry in a few years! If you’re still not married by then, I’ll definitely marry you, Sheena!”

Seeing his determination, Sheena could only shake her head with a bemused smile.

Now that the situation had finally calmed down, Kennedy took the opportunity to address the audience.

He took the stage and began his formal speech, “I’m delighted to have you all here to welcome my

youngest daughter, Jennifer, home. However, aside from inviting you to enjoy the banquet, there’s

another significant matter concerning the Moore family that we need to announce tonight!”
