Sheena immediately god up to answer the door.
“What’s going on? How did they end up arging out of the blue?”

Without much thought, Sheena replied, “This is my family’s internal affairs. It might not be appropriate

Elliot seemed a bit displeased but did not say anything more. He took a white windbreaker from the
rack and helped Sheena put it on.
“Winter is just around the corner. Don’t catch a cold.”
Sheena tiptoed and planted a kiss on his cheek before swiftly leaving with Ford to return to Mountville.
As Sheena’s car ascended the hill, she spotted Phoebe’s slender figure anxiously pacing back and

When George heard that she had returned, he hurriedly ran over to greet her.
Sheena inquired, “Uncle George, where’s Corey?”

Sheena’s expression turned serious as she remembered the crucial matter.
She turned to Ford, saying, “Go contact Corey. If he doesn’t answer, call Barbara. Tell them to return to
Svelton within the next two days. I need to talk to them.”
“Yes, miss,” Ford responded, turning to attend to the task.
Holding Phoebe’s hand, Sheena made her way to the hall entrance. The large doors were tightly

argument. She furrowed her brow and was about to push the door open when George stopped her.
“Miss, you can enter the hall anytime, but Ms. Chamberlain is an outsider. She can’t come in.”
Phoebe, not wanting to cause any trouble, chimed in, “It’s okay, I won’t go in. I’ll wait for you outside.

Inside the hall, Albert sat in the main seat, visibly upset.
Lauren occupied a chair on the side, appearing nonchalant as if watching a drama unfold.
