“As expected, I knew you wouldn’t be genuinely generous.” Erin rolled her eyes. But what are your conditions?”
“First, your spouse cannot be one of those wealthy heirs. Find a humble and honest ordinary man to marry into the Freeman family, and any children you have, regardless of gender, will bear the Freeman surnand be recorded in the Freeman family ancestry.”
“Second, your manners are lacking, but worry not, for I’ve arranged a noble etiquette teacher for you. During this time, I’ll personally oversee your training.”
“Third, once you improve your manners, I’ll help you secure a position within the Freeman Group. You’ll learn about operations and management, and when you’re capable of handling projects independently, the shares will be transferred to you.”
Erin was left dumbfounded after hearing about the conditions. “Are you kidding me? I can’t meet any of these three conditions! Why do you have such strict control over me?”
Sheena casually responded, “If you can’t do it, forget I mentioned it.”

“Wait!“‘Faye called out, and she turned to Erin, attempting to persuade her
earnestly. “Erin, all of this is for you and the good of the Freeman family. Your brother is gone, and the Freeman family is without an heir. Getting a husband to marry into our family would be the best solution. Besides, I also agree that you’re too willful and need proper guidance.”
Sheena’s posture stiffened, and her gaze dimmed.
The phrase ‘your brother is gone, and the Freeman family is without an heir‘ struck her, making her feel a pang of heartache.
She instinctively touched her belly. Even though she had been married to Elijah for three years, and despite one intimate encounter on the night before their divorce, she had not becpregnant. However, considering her mindset and personality at the time, even if she had conceived, she would have unhesitatingly chosen to terminate the pregnancy.
Faye noticed Sheena’s expression and realized her mistake. “I’m sorry, I’m sorry! I got carried away educating Erin and neglected that you were here.”
“Don’t worry, please continue,” Sheena replied, easing her emotions and sitting

Faye, with a hint of apology in her eyes, took a moment before looking back at Erin.
“Erin, the fact that you and I can still live in the Freeman mansion is all thanks to Sheena. If you refuse, she’ll kick us out. We’re penniless, and we’ll be forced to sleep under a bridge. Do you want that to happen?”
Erin’s face turned pale. “No! I don’t want to sleep under a bridge!”
If she were evicted, her socialite friends would definitely humiliate her. Nonetheless, agreeing to Sheena’s conditions offered a chance to continue her previous comfortable lifestyle.
Erin hesitated, then said, “Okay, I agree to your terms.‘
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmSheena shook her head. “It’s not agreeing. It’s unconditional obedience.”
“I’ll unconditionally obey your terms, okay?”
Satisfied, Sheena nodded and introduced the etiquette teacher to Erin. Then, she continued, “I have two more gifts for you.”
John and Sawyer, each holding a square box and appearing very dignified, approached Erin.
Erin was baffled.
Sheena stood up and opened the first box. “This is a manual on polite
conversation. I’ll give you a week to memorize the entire book. Moreover, you can’t delay the etiquette teacher’s classes, and I’ll be checking on you.”
Erin stared wide–eyed at the thick book, which was the thickness of her pinky finger. “You wantto memorize this entire thick book in seven days?! Are you insane?”

Ignoring her, Sheena opened the second box.
It contained a high–quality rosewood ruler, sturdy and with excellent coloring.
“If you can’t memorize it, this will help you remember. I don’t like using this method to teach, but you’ve leftno choice. From now on, every mistake you make will be corrected by this.”
