Chapter 785
Sheila’s expression froze.

After a moment, she could only reluctantly lower her head and
say,
“I understand.”
“Good girl! That’s the kind of grace our Lawson family heiress should have.” Howard smiled, patting her head.
After a perfunctory pat, he turned and left, muttering, “Change back into your original clothes. Your face is injured, so we won’t be able to pick out a dress today. We’ll do it another day.”
Sheena left the commercial district.
It was not until she sat in her car that she opened her purse again and found a small note.
Howard had slipped it into her hand when he helped her up earlier.
Unfolding the note, there was only one sentence written on it.

Frowning, Sheena silently stared at the elegant handwriting.
Why did he need time?
Had he discovered something and was quietly investigating?
Just as she was pondering, her phone rang.
It was Elliot calling.
Elliot’s voice cthrough as she answered the call, and he sounded somewhat sad.
“You went out without wakingup?”
Sheena gently comforted him, “I’ve just finished up here, and I’ll be back soon. You were sleeping so soundly, and I didn’t want to disturb you.
Still curled up in bed on the other end of the line, Elliot groaned softly before continuing, “What were you up to? Did you get hurt?”
Bringing up the incident, Sheena felt a sense of satisfaction, replying, “I just slapped a scheming bitch a few times. It feels great!”
“You hit someone?” Elliot’s tone becanxious. “Does your hand hurt? Cback, and I’ll
massage it for you.”
Sheena chuckled, feeling a warm sensation in her heart. “I’m not that fragile. I’m feeling great right
now!”

As they chatted on the phone, Sheena arrived at E&S Haven after about ten minutes.
By the tshe returned, Elliot had already gotten up and freshened up, but he was still wearing a loose silk robe.
When she opened the door, Elliot was standing behind it, gently pulling her into his arms, seeking her
familiar scent.
With a hint of morning grogginess, he was all soft and cuddly, nuzzling his head against Sheena’s shoulder, murmuring, and indulging in affection.
“Waking up to find the bed cold and empty was depressing…”
Sheena stroked the back of his head, soothing him without saying a word.
Lionel entered from the garden, and as he approached, he saw the door was open, and Elliot was displaying his soft and affectionate side.
The scene was too heartwarming, and Lionel could not help but smile.
However, he had cover today with serious matters on his mind.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmThinking of this, he had to clear his throat and interrupt the tender moment before him.
Hearing Lionel’s voice, both Sheena and Elliot immediately straightened up and released each other.
Lionel handed over the report and said, “The investigation results from Dr. Frazer’s side are out, and it seems he’s involved in sshady dealings.”
Sheena and Elliot’s expressions instantly turned serious, almost synchronizing their faces to a colder demeanor.
Elliot took the investigation report from Lionel’s hand and helped Sheena to sit on the sofa.
Together, they examined the findings.
Frazer had an eighty–year–old mother who was secretly taken abroad a few days ago.
After that day, he conducted the paternity tests for Sheena and Albert. Then, the next day, at Lionel’s request, for Sheena and Austin.
The day after conducting these tests, he flew out of the country on a private jet.
However, all his assets had been transferred abroad, indicating he did not intend to return.
After reviewing the report, Sheena’s gaze turned particularly icy.
“Frazer conducted both of these paternity tests alone. However, Lionel couldn’t watch over him every second. For someone like Frazer, altering a few data points unnoticed would be a piece of cake.”
Elliot nodded. “His mother being sent abroad was likely used as a threat against him to manipulate the paternity tests. In other words, the tests can’t be trusted.”

Lionel chimed in, “Should we conduct another paternity test? I can discreetly visit hospitals in other districts to ensure no tampering occurs.
After pondering it over, Sheena decisively nodded her head.
