SWNOVELS Chapter 37
Chapter 37
As Sheena observed his expression, she figured he must have also discovered the mastermind behind
this incident.
So, was he bare specifically to hold her accountable?
Elijah remained silent as he continued to stare at Sheena.
Instead, Leon stepped forward and said, “Ms. Sheena, you’re too harsh!”
Despite the divorce, they were once her mother–in–law and sister–in–law. Even if they did something
wrong, Sheena should not have tormented them like this!
Leon found Jennifer much more favorable due to her kind image.
Sheena glanced at him but did not argue. Instead, she looked at Elijah and asked, “Is that what you
think too?”
Elijah frowned. Just as he was about to reply, Faye heard the commotion at the entrance and rushed
over. She clung to him while accusing Sheena angrily.
“Eli, look at what this vicious woman did to Erin! She even ruined our house! You must send her to
prison! I want her to be locked up and repent for a lifetime!”
Elijah became increasingly annoyed.
Everyone’s eyes were on him, seemingly waiting for his decision.
Sheena also stared at him, calm and composed, ready for Elijah to protect Faye.
Faye grew more triumphant, convinced that Elijah would side with her!
She eagerly anticipated Sheena’s downfall!
Amidst the varied gazes of the onlookers, Elijah took two steps closer to Sheena.
The bodyguards immediately stood before Sheena, but she waved them back as she wanted to see
what he would do.
Elijah stopped in his tracks, leaving about half a meter of distance between him and Sheena.
He sighed and slightly lowered his head toward her.
“They were the ones who attempted to harm you first, and your revenge against the Freeman family
was justifiable. I apologize for their immaturity on their behalf.”
His words stunned everyone present!
Even Sheena fell silent.
She had anticipated his anger and protectiveness, but she never expected him to not only support her
revenge but also apologize on their behalf.
It was the first time she saw him being rational, responsible, and acting like a true man.
Faye could not stand it anymore and grabbed Elijah, throwing a tantrum without caring about her
surroundings.
“You’re my son! How can you not help me and support this bitch instead? Can you bear to see
her ruin Erin and me like this? How can you be so heartless? I don’t care! You must do something
about this. Otherwise, I won’t acknowledge you as my son! You’re simply ungrateful!”
Elijah stood still, letting her vent her anger.
Faye later realized that Elijah was unmoved by her antics. She grew even more frustrated and tried to
change at Sheena. It was then that Elijah shot a sharp look at the servants who were watching the
scene unfold.
“Madam Freeman is not in the right state of mind. Take her back to her room and call the family doctor
to check on her.”
Leon received the order and quickly arranged for the servants to take the grumbling Faye back into the
mansion.
At the same time, they carried Erin, who was lying unconscious on the ground in the garden, back into
the house.
The other servants scattered to clean up the mess.
Only Elijah and Sheena remained outside the mansion, along with the ten bodyguards she had
brought.
