Wait, She’s a Billionaire (Sheena Lawson) novel Chapter 1164

Barbara had been with Corey for so many years, and she knew him best.

She advised him to let the matter go, saying, "Even if you tell Sheena the truth, and she believes you, getting rid of this charge won't change the fact that Sheila has committed many crimes before. She's looking at a life sentence. The truth of this matter won't affect the outcome of the trial. Darling, trust me and let it go. Sheila knows what she did, and she's chosen to face the consequences. Bringing this up to Sheena won't do any good."

Barbara's words hit home.

It did not matter if Sheila killed Sophia.

The moment she was taken to the National Investigation Bureau, her fate was sealed.

Corey could not help her, and he would not help her anymore.

This was the consequence of her horrible actions over the years, and she could only bear it herself.

Corey stayed at home to recover.

Though Sheena was angry, seeing him behave obediently without ever mentioning seeking leniency for Sheila or even trying to visit her secretly calmed her considerably.

Two days later, Sheila's sentence was decided—life imprisonment.

She was escorted to the prison gates in an armored vehicle. Having spent nearly a week at the National Investigation Bureau, she looked visibly worn down, her already thin frame even more frail.

With heavy handcuffs clamped around her weak wrists, she appeared pitiful.

Yet, considering the evil deeds she had committed, sympathy was hard to come by.

As Sheila realized she was being taken to prison, with no chance of ever coming out again, her head hung low, eyes devoid of emotion, numbed by the reality of her situation.

It was not until the police led her out of the vehicle at the prison gates that she seemed to snap out of her trance.
