Wait, She’s a Billionaire (Sheena Lawson) novel Chapter 1104

At 3 a.m., the only sound breaking the silence of Mountville was the hoarse and strained recitation coming from the altar room.

Sheena deliberately dismissed the bodyguards stationed at the entrance of the old mansion, allowing people to come and go unsupervised.

A few minutes later, a figure approached the altar room.

Elliot squinted, lowering his presence silently, hiding in the darkness, waiting patiently.

From this angle, he could see the person's profile.

The night was dark, with only faint light from the mansion's garden lamps.

The figure appeared slender, unmistakably a woman.

Was it really Anne?

It was simply suspicious to visit Corey, who was being punished, at such a late hour.

The figure stood by the door of the altar room, quietly listening to the sounds inside for a while.

Minutes passed, yet she remained outside, showing no intention of going in.

Elliot felt doubtful.

Quietly, he emerged from the shadows, approaching the slender figure peering into the altar room.

As he got closer, he realized it was not Anne but Barbara.

Coming at this time of night, it was obvious that she was concerned.

Elliot sighed, taking a step back silently, retreating back into the shadows.

Barbara stood outside the altar room for a long time, silently accompanying Corey for over half an hour.

A subtle hint of sadness lingered in the air as Barbara sighed deeply before leaving the old mansion.

Shortly after she left, Sheena returned from her errand.
