Chapter 411
“In this day and age, we emphasize our children’s freedom in marriage. How could you arrange my
marriage without asking me first?” Sheena stood up abruptly, rurious.
Aibert was left speechless by her retort, and he weakly attempted to reach for her arm, only to be
skillfully avoided. He withdrew his hand, stroking his beard while his confidence weakened.
“Sweetheart, the engagement has been fixed. Why not meet Elliot first before deciding? He’s truly
remarkable, just five years older than you, caring and
considerate. You know I’m picky, but I’m deeply impressed by him! You’ll like him too.”
“Five years older is unacceptable! He’s too old! I don’t like it!”
Sheena was stubborn. She had not considered dating again, let alone engagement and marriage.
It was simply out of the question!
“He’s only twenty–eight. How’s that old? Your ex–husband was also five years older than you,” Albert
pointed out.
“That’s different! This matter is non–negotiable. Cancel the engagement right now!” Sheena remained
unyielding.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇt“It can’t be canceled… We just settled it yesterday. I made a deal with Santiago Jenkins, and we plan
to announce your engagement at the banquet to celebrate your return in three days.”
Sheena took a deep breath, suppressing her anger. “I don’t care about your banquet for my return. If
you can’t cancel the engagement, I’ll do it myself!”
She left in a huff, slamming the door behind her.
Albert watched her fiery departure, shaking his head helplessly.
More and more, she resembled her mother’s temperament.
She definitely needed a man who could handle her!
Sheena stormed out of the study and straight through the garden. Ford and the other bodyguards were
waiting at the entrance.
Despite her anger, Albert was sick, and as a daughter, she felt the responsibility to accompany him. So,
she called the bodyguards to return to the hotel to pack. her belongings; she intended to move in
temporarily.
Standing at the entrance, Sheena pondered how to handle the engagement. After some thought, she
noticed George standing nearby.
Sheena called him over and asked, “Uncle George, do you know where the Jenkin family resides?”
“Yes, Miss. Who are you looking for?”
Sheena replied through gritted teeth, “Elliot.”
Noticing that Sheena was obviously displeased, George did not dare to delay and quickly wrote down
the address for her.
Then, Sheena headed over.
Grant, the Jenkins family’s butler, was aware of Sheena’s engagement to Elliot and welcomed her
warmly.
It was Sheena’s first visit to the Jenkins family. Unlike the Lawson family homes. perched on the
mountainside, the Jenkins family estate was more like a vast expanse of plains with retro–style,
uniformly decorated mansions.
Bamboo groves, pavilions by the water, and artificial hills by the creek. The place oozed the
characteristics
of an academia–oriented aristocratic family, and it was apparent that the Jenkins family respected
traditional values.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmSheena felt like she had stepped into the mansion of an ancient tycoon, and she thought it was rather
unique and intriguing.
Guided by Grant through various twists and turns, she finally arrived at Elliot’s standalone mansion.
After leading her there, Grant left.
Sheena waited in the living room.
She had waited for quite some time when suddenly, a hurried bodyguard approached and said, “I
apologize, Ms. Lawson, but Mr. Jenkins is currently occupied with official matters and may not be able
to see you.”
Sheena frowned slightly. Since she arrived, no servant had come to offer her tea, and the bodyguard’s
words suggested a subtle hint to prompt her departure.

It seemed that Elliot was not particularly eager about this marriage either.
Well, that suited her just fine.
“That’s okay. I have plenty of time today. I can wait,” Sheena responded. The bodyguard hesitated,
clearly unsure how to proceed.
