Chapter 292
Sheena made a charming smile. She casually raised her hand, and the group of bodyguards took a step forward in unison.
Bethany’s face turned pale, and she instinctively stepped backward, glaring at Sheena as she warned her, “Froania has strict regulations. You wouldn’t dare to kill me! Besides, I haven’t done anything, and you have no evidence!”
“Who said anything about killing you? Death is too simple a punishment. As for the evidence, that will come sooner or later. You can start settling your debts now,” Sheena retorted, her expression turning icy as she issued a command, “Hold her down!”
The bodyguards immediately rushed forward to apprehend Bethany. The massive force surged forward, and with Bethany’s petite frame, she would easily be overwhelmed.
Terrified and haunted by memories of Sheena’s bodyguards slapping her, Bethany trembled uncontr
Melania, being more composed, quickly caught on. She shouted to her own bodyguards, What are you waiting for? Get all the bodyguards and servants out here! Protect Bethany!”
The Carver family’s bodyguards acted swiftly. However, they were no match for Sheena’s group. In less than a minute, every member of the Carver family was under control.
Sensing the worsening situation, Bethany attempted to flee, but her shoulders were grabbed before she could even move. Sheena’s people showed no mercy, forcing her down to her knees. In pain, Bethany’s features contorted, and she screamed.
“You bitch! How dare you touch me! I won’t let you off! I’ll make you die a miserable death! Let go!”

“You’ve too far! The Carver family is a prominent figure in Farlem. I won’t let you bully us!” Melania, also restrained by bodyguards, could only voice her threats helplessly.
Ignoring their
protests, Sheena continued to enjoy her oranges. Beneath her long eyelashes, her beautiful eyes remained fixed on the two captives. Her mischievous smirk persisted, and her cheeks bulged as she ate.
This playful yet ruthless image of hers intrigued Elijah. He felt an impulse to poke her soft, fair cheek gently.
While Elijah was absorbed in watching Sheena, Melanie shouted at him, “Elijah! Louie is your uncle! Are you going to let your ex–wife bully our Carver family like this while he’s away from home?”
Elijah’s handsome face was pale, and his tone was cold. “Auntie Melania, Bethany must’ve told you I signed an employment contract with Sheena. I belong to her, so I can’t help you.”
“Elijah! Why are you helping her? We’re your family!”
Melania would not stop shouting her accusations, and Sheena found it a bit annoying. Frowning, she ordered, “She’s too noisy. Shut her up.”
The bodyguards immédiately fetched a piece of cloth and gagged Melania. Since Bethany still needed to answer questions, she was spared from being gagged.
Sheena took a dagger from Lionel, stood up, and walked to Bethany’s feet. She lightly lifted Bethany’s chin with the tip of the blade.
Bethany felt a slight tingling under her chin and was so scared that she did not dare to breathe. Her pupils trembled with helplessness, and she finally softened her tone.
“Sheena, it really has nothing to do with me. It’s pointless for you to come after me.‘ NôvelDrama.Org is the owner.
Sheena sneered. “I know there’s someone pulling the strings behind you. If you can hand that person over, including Jennifer, I’ll let you go. We can settle our previous score too. How about that?”
This implied that she would not consider going after the Carver Group again. The Carver family could enjoy peaceful days in the future.
Bethany hesitated. After all, Sheena had publicly slapped her, humiliating her.
How could Bethany endure such humiliation?
