Sheila locked eyes with Sheena, freezing under her cold, piercing gaze, feeling an uncontrollable shiver of fear creeping through her.
Noticing Sheila’s slight fear, Sheena let out a disdainful chuckle.
“Tomorrow morning, I’ll have you taken to a countryside residence, where bodyguards will watch over you. There, you’ll be supervised by former servants of the Lawson family and forced to do farm work every day.
“At sunset, you’ll receive ten lashes before kneeling in the yard to recite religious scriptures as repentance for your sins. You’ll rest only when you’ve finished reading each night.
“This routine will repeat day after day. What do you think? Isn’t it generous of me?”
Sheila’s spine stiffened, her already weakened complexion paling even further.
She had heard of those religious scriptures and knew it was extremely long and wordy.
It was daunting to think of reciting from cover to cover in one night.

“Sheena, you’re ruthless,” Sheila said, defiance evident on her face.
Sheena glared at her, her tone icy.
“You call that ruthless? What about when you used my sympathy to injectwith drugs and push me into the water? What about when you hired numerous assassins to take my life? Weren’t you ruthless? Or when you attempted to infectwith a virus, manipulated Katie to harmmultiple times, incited
Lauren to push Dad down the stairs, fabricated my identity, coerced Corey into siding with you, and plotted to seize control of the Lawson family’s inheritance? Weren’t you ruthless then?”
As their eyes met, Sheila chuckled, feeling relieved.
‘Being able to throw so many obstacles in your path makessatisfied.”
Thinking of Corey, she added, “Corey doesn’t know much about many things. I’ll take full
responsibility without implicating anyone else.
Sheena remained expressionless, her gaze still cold as she replied, “You deserve your punishment, and as for him, I won’t forgive him either.”
With that said, she returned to the sofa, sitting beside Elliot.
John immediately went to pull Shella up, while Sheena continued, “Lock her up in the basement for tonight. Tomorrow morning, send her to the countryside.”
“Yes, miss,” John acknowledged, then asked, “Should I have her pack her belongings?”
“No need. From now on, she won’t need luxury items like jewelry, earrings, designer bags, or high-

end cosmetics. She won’t need any of it.”
Sheila was weakly escorted away.
Before leaving, Sheila glanced back at Sheena with a cold smile.
“Sheena, you might’ve made a mistake by sparing my life”
In the living room, accompanied by her light laughter, a strange atmosphere lingered in the air.

The people sitting on the sofa showed little reaction, indifferent to her departure.
Noah had not uttered a word throughout the entire ordeal.
Seeing that things were more or less settled, he got up and Informed Sheena, “Nana, I plan to leave. Svelton the day after tomorrow to handle things at Luivine Hospital. I’ll be back on the day of your wedding ceremony.”
“Alright,” Sheena replied simply.
As Noah left, Howard also rose to his feet.
“Nana, Phoebe has been filming a wilderness survival reality show near the Mumford Town
mountains recently, and I plan to visit her soon. We’ll cback together on the day of your wedding.
Sheena did not say much. She just nodded in agreement.
Understanding the situation at home, Sheena knew they both felt uncomfortable and wanted to leave
the Lawson estate to relax and clear their minds.
With things mostly settled, Sheena notified Barbara to remind Corey to sign the inheritance papers at the Lawson estate with Ricky the next day.
