Chapter 202
Next to them, Sarah keenly placed the company’s share registry on the coffee table.
Wilfred carefully examined it, and his face gradually turned dark. He was not at Farlem yesterday, and
if Elijah had not returned, the company would indeed fallen under Sheena’s leadership. However, he
had been harboring intentions for the position of the head of the company for so many years, and he
would not let this outsider take it away without a fight.
Wilfred gave
it a thought and looked at Elijah, saying, “What are you standing there for? You’re still the second–
largest shareholder. Come over and sit.”
Sheena also glanced at Elijah.
However, Elijah remained silent, resembling a once proud lion whose claws had been dulled.
Sheena was satisfied with his obedient demeanor and turned her gaze back to Wilfred, smiling as she
explained, “I’ll speak for him. Anyway, he’s now my servant. In conversations between masters, he’s

Wilfred widened his eyes in surprise, scrutinizing the dynamics between Sheena and Elijah. After a
while, he finally erupted in fury and shouted, “You bastard! Did you sign a contract with her, submitting
yourself to her? You’ve brought shame,to the Freeman family’s name!”
Wilfred was a stubborn conservative, especially considering Elijah was a relatively powerful heir.
Despite his initial displeasure at Elijah overtaking him for the position of head of the company, once
Elijah assumed the role, he elevated the Freeman Group to unprecedented heights, and Wilfred
enjoyed substantial dividends over the years.
Now, it was all in the hands of a woman!
Wilfred’s anger surged, and he charged forward, delivering a fierce slap. “I’ll teach you a lesson on
behalf of your dad and grandpa!”
Elijah did not dodge, not even showing any change in expression.
Slap!
Elijah grunted, and his left cheek visibly swelled with a bloodstain at the corner of his mouth. His
current physical condition could not withstand the force of this slap, and he tumbled uncontrollably to
the ground.
Sheena quickly caught him before he hit the floor. However, Wilfred was far from done, and he was
ready for a second blow.
Sheena grabbed Wilfred’s hand and forcefully pushed it away, warning him, “This isn’t your Freeman
family’s company or property. If you want to fight, go home and do it there. Don’t stage a show in front
of me.”
The nearby bodyguards swiftly intervened, forcing Wilfred back onto the sofa.
Elijah had regained his balance, wiping away the blood from the corner of his mouth with a cold
expression. Even as Wilfred approached him, he did not blink an eye. His deep, dark eyes seemed lost
in contemplation.
Sheena, irritated by Elijah’s battered appearance, glared fiercely at Wilfred, and mocked, “By the way,
the Freeman mansion no longer belongs to the Freeman family. Those rigid and

stubborn old traditions should be abolished!”

Wilfred was stunned to find Sheena seizing the Freeman mansion too. He recalled Faye, the
spendthrift woman, and looked at Elijah.
Noticing Elijah’s indifference, Wilfred pointed at him and scolded, “Do you realize you’re helping the
enemy? I left Farlem a couple of days ago because I found out the old man’s death was likely linked to
her!”
With those words, Elijah finally looked at Wilfred.
Grinding his teeth, Wilfred continued, “This woman was responsible for his death in the first place! Now,
she’s plotting to take over the Freeman family’s legacy! She’s simply too cunning, and we can’t let a
woman like her stay!”
Then, he cast a meaningful glance at Elijah, adding, “Elijah, make a decision now, or things will only get
worse!”
