Seeing her chatting with Paulo, Sheena walked over in her high heels.
Ms. Windsor, you’re truly Impressive. Despite your young age, you completed a project with a major corporation alone and even caught Mr. Gray’s attention. Congratulations.”
Hearing her voice, Anne turned around gracefully, offering a friendly smile.
“Still not as impressive as you, Ms. Lawson. After all, I’m the next collaborator, while you’re the winner of this collaboration. Congratulations, Ms. Lawson.”
Standing closer, Sheena listened carefully to Anne’s voice and noticed a hint of
hoarseness, lacking the melodious tone of a young girl.
“Ms. Windsor, what happened to your voice? It sounds a bit more mature than other girls your age,” Sheena asked tactfully.
Paulo, who still looked handsin his forties, naturally wrapped his arm around Anne’s slender waist and explained, “Anne has had this voice since she was young, but I love it. I find it very melodic and unique.”
Sheena’s gaze remained fixed on Anne’s face as she casually asked, “How old is Ms. Windsor this year?”
Paulo answered, “Twenty–one.”

If Sheila were still alive, she would only be 20 this year.
Anne remarked, “Ms. Lawson, you’ve been staring at my face since earlier. Did I mess up
my makeup today?”
Sheena smiled in response, “No, Ms. Windsor. Your makeup is exquisite, giving an amiable vibe and a familiar presence”
Anne smiled, her eyes twinkling innocently, without saying a word.
Sheena continued probing, “I remember Mr. Karl and Ms. Windsor both cfrom Ouna,
but Ms. Windsor’s accent sounds like ours.”
“I studied in Froania for a few years before. I also love Froania and consider it a wonderful
country. If given the chance, I would love to return.
Sheena also smiled. “You’re welcto visit Froania, Ms. Windsor. And If you ever cto Froania, feel free to call me. I’d be delighted to be your tour guide for a day and promote
the culture of our country.”
Thank you for your hospitality, Ms. Lawson
They exchanged friendly nods as Paulo wrapped his arm around Anne’s shoulder. Then, they departed the hall.
Even after they left, Sheena remained standing in place, replaying every moment of her
conversation with Anne.
There was something about this girl that she found peculiar.
Besides, Sheila was known for being an award–winning actress, capable of concealing her actions and portraying innocence effortlessly.
With this in mind, Sheena took out her phone, contemplating whether to call directly or
send a text.
Considering the tdifference with Froania, she opted for a text message instead in case Ford was asleep.

Meanwhile, Elliot had finished his phone call and hurried back, his expression grim and
troubled.
Sheena almost immediately sensed his uneasy and tense demeanor.
“What happened? Who called?”
Elliot lowered his head, initially intending to hide the truth, but Sheena saw right through him instantly.
Eyeing his expression, Sheena’s tone grew stern.
“Answer me. Is it about Asher and Adora?”
Elliot clenched his fists, feeling tense.

“Jacintha just called. She said that yesterday, it rained all day in Svelton, causing a sudden drop in temperature. When they took Asher and Adora to the garden to play, they might have caught a cold…”
“Get to the point!” Sheena interrupted sharply.
Taking a deep breath, Elliot delivered the news.
“The babies are running a high fever.”
