Wait, She’s a Billionaire

Chapter 324

Elijah and Lance searched everywhere, finally finding the men in a secluded corner of the backyard, engrossed in a card game. They were so absorbed that they did not even notice Elijah and Lance approaching.

Sawyer exclaimed, “A pair of Queens!”

Lionel, triumphantly smashing two cards on the table, declared, “I’ve got a pair of Aces! Bet you didn’t see that coming!”

Infuriated, Sawyer retorted, “Damn! You sneaky guy!”

Elijah and Lance were left speechless to find the guys playing cards here.

If Sheena were to find out about this, their salary would surely be deducted.

Oblivious to such concerns, Lance eagerly approached and said, “Need an extra player? Countin!”

“Lionel, quit playing,” Elijah said and walked toward the trees in the front yard.

Excited, Lance took over Lionel’s spot.

Lionel reluctantly handed over the cards and followed Elijah.

Once they were sure the card gsquad could not hear their conversation, Elijah, with a stern expression, whispered, “How did you handle the task I assigned you last time?”

Habitually scanning the surroundings, Lionel leaned in and said in a low voice, “Rest assured, I caused strouble with the Special Investigation Department in your name. Nathaniel will likely leave Farlem within three days and shouldn’t be returning to Farlem anytsoon.”

“Good.” Elijah acknowledged, then remembered the new guard, Ian, who joined today. “Check on that Ian guy. He seems familiar. I’ve seen him at the Clear Crane Bridge incident. If that’s true, he’s someone to watch out for.”

Recalling that Sheena had taken Ian out today, he hurriedly added, “Get the information quickly.”

“Yes, Mr. Freeman.”

At the Freeman Group, in the CEO’s office, Sheena had just finished a meeting with Sarah when she received a call from Nathaniel.

Answering with an exceptionally cold tone, she asked, “Mr. Nicholls, was my message not clear enough last night?”

Nathaniel hesitated and sighed softly, “Nana, there’s an issue with the Special Investigation Department, and I must leave Farlem. I don’t know when we’ll meet again.”

Sheena remained unbothered, saying, “Work comes first.”

Nathaniel sighed again, his tone heavy. “Nana, you’re too heartless. Even if we can’t be lovers,

Nathaniel sighed again, his tone heavy. “Nana, you’re too heartless. Even if we can’t be lovers,

considering the relationship between the Nicholls and Lawson families, we’re still friends. Moreover, last night, an old friend from Svelton cby. Don’t you want to know who it is? I’d like to invite you out for one last gathering tonight. Can’t you consider this a favor for me?

Sheena fell into silence. She thought something felt off about Nathaniel’s behavior this time. It was too peculiar and unpredictable. If she did not accept his invitation, how could she know what he was up to?

“Alright, where?”

“Eros Bar.”

After a moment’s thought, Nathaniel added, “Just the three of us, old friends. Leave your little pet at hthis time.”

“Okay.”

After ending the call, Sheena pondered for a long time, systematically analyzing recent events. Then, she decided to summon Paul and Ian.

“I have a gathering tonight and don’t need too many people with me. Ian, you’ll be accompanying me. Paul, you can head back to the mansion for now.”
