“That’s enough. I’m aware of this matter. Dad personally told me.”
Corey was the one who intervened, narrowing his gaze slightly.
“Since you’re here and a part of the Lawson family, take a seat.”
“Thank you,” Sheila said as she sat beside Lauren.
Throughout the proceedings, Sheena kept her head lowered, maintaining a deliberate silence to conceal the chill in her eyes.
The living room instantly fell silent, with everyone lost in their own thoughts.
It was not until Corey, the eldest among the siblings, broke the silence, saying, “Nana, considering Dad’s current condition, I think our priority should be his treatment and care. As for other matters, we can discuss them once Dad wakes up.”

Sheena looked at him, retorting, “Corey, you’re wrong. Dad has Noah looking after him. Besides, we
don’t understand medicine and can’t contribute much. Signing the contract tomorrow only requires a lawyer to represent Dad and my presence. After all, the Lawson Group needs someone to step up.”
Corey looked at her with concern.
“Nana, you’re pregnant. You have to consider not only yourself but also your babies. If you sign the inheritance now, all the burdens will fall on you alone, and you’ll be exhausted.”
Noah chimed in, “It’s more tiring for you because you’re having twins. Your body can’t handle so many things, so I agree to cancel the signing first and wait until Dad gets better. ”
Howard and Barbara concurred.
However, Sheena remained resolute. “I’m not afraid of the stress; I believe the babies can handle it well. With Dad in this situation, Uncle Victor and Uncle Barrett’s family, who were ousted last time, won’t sit idly by. Someone needs to take charge.”
The living room fell into silence again.
Sheena turned to Corey, sitting on the main couch, and continued, “When I was born, Dad set a rule that the inheritance of the Lawson family passes through females, not males. Now that Dad is in trouble, no one is more suitable thanto take on this responsibility. Corey, what do you think?”
Corey remained silent.
This time, Sheila, who had been quiet, suddenly spoke up, “What if it’s because of you that you’re not qualified to sign the inheritance?”
Her words instantly caught everyone’s attention.

Sheena chuckled. “What are you trying to say?”
“You’re not a Lawson.”
Sheena locked eyes with her and laughed disdainfully but did not offer any rebental

to be sure.”
Sheila took the paternity test report from her bag and placed it on the coffee table.
“I accidentally saw this report in Dad’s bedside drawer.
“After questioning Auntie Lauren, I found out that Dad flew into a rage upon discovering this paternity test report in the morning. He even kicked her and Uncle George out. But in his agitation, he somehow tumbled down the stairs.
If you don’t believe it, you can ask Auntie Lauren, Uncle George, or any other staff in the mansion. They’re all informed.”
Sheena remained silent, only glancing at her three brothers and gauging their reactions.
Howard was the most heated, glaring fiercely at Sheila.
“Impossible! Nana grew up with me. How could she be Mom’s illegitimate child and not a Lawson? You’re slandering Sheena and our mom! What are your intentions?”
Sheila explained without hesitation, “Howard, when Sheena was born, you were only two years old. You didn’t know anything. How can you be so sure it’s fake? Dad personally had the paternity test done. Can it be bogus?”
She then looked at Noah, smiling as she added, “Noah is right here. Just let him take a look, and we’ll know if this paternity test is genuine or not.”
