Lauren was yelled at until she cried, unable to bring herself to look at the man lying in the hospital
bed.
However, Sheena, still pulling her hair, left Lauren with no means of escape.
The intense pain in her knees and scalp was pushing her nerves to the brink, and she screamed, almost on the edge of a breakdown.
“I didn’t do anything wrong! I was just protecting myself. All of this is your fault, Sheena! You caused this! Albert deserves it! If he hadn’t insisted on passing the inheritance to you and forcedinto a corner, I wouldn’t have listened to Sheila’s manipulation!”
Lauren and Sheena had never gotten along.
Sheena had previously threatened to kick her out of the Lawson family once she gained control of the

Moreover, Lauren had been pampered in the Lawson family for so many years that being ousted
would be akin to a death sentence.
She had no survival skills and would not be able to make it on her own.
However,
if Sheila inherited the wealth, it would be a different story, and she could still be a part of
the Lawson family.
Lauren believed she did nothing wrong. It was just all for the sake of survival!
Sheena was mildly shocked, completely unprepared for Lauren’s lack of remorse.
Anger surged within her, and she slapped Lauren hard across the face, forcing her to look at Albert.
“What did Dad do wrong? It was you who schemed and seduced him for wealth! It was you who pressured him to take responsibility for you! Has he ever let you down over the years?” Sheena accused.
“He genuinely cared for you. He once toldthat after his death, he wantedto arrange a luxurious mansion for you to live in and transfer 5% of the Lawson Group’s shares to you so you could continue living a comfortable life off those dividends. He even said if you wanted to remarry, should let you! And what about you? Is this how you repay him?”

Lauren’s eyes widened in disbelief as she stared blankly at her unconscious husband lying on the bed.
“How is that possible? H–He had already planned everything for me?”
Sheena sneered at her.
“Lauren, you know my character. I always retaliate tenfold. Despite all our arguments over the years, I have never physically harmed you because Dad couldn’t bear to see you hurt!”

“L… I…” Lauren trembled, unable to utter a word.
She had never loved Albert and marrying him had been solely for the sake of enjoying the prestige and wealth of being a socialite.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmShe assumed Albert felt the same, seeing her as nothing more than a youthful, amusing diversion.
Unexpectedly, Albert had actually loved her and had made arrangements for her future, wanting, her to live out the rest of her days comfortably.
Overwhelmed with guilt, she broke down in tears, consumed by remorse.
Sheena stared coldly at her, her tone indifferent.
“You’re truly both foolish and wicked. Dad was the only one in the Lawson family who would protect you. You’ve harmed him, and you know so many of Sheila’s secrets. Given Sheila’s nature, she’ll find a way to deal with you once things settle down! I may be her half–sister, but she’s tried to killmultiple times. It shows just how ruthless she can be! Meanwhile, you have no connection to her at all. Why would you believe she’d actually protect you?”
Lauren gasped, and even her crying ceased as she suddenly realized her mistake, how terribly wrong she had been!
She crawled back, grasping Sheena’s gown, and earnestly apologized, “I’m sorry, Sheena. I was wrong! I truly realize my foolishness now! Can you giveanother chance?”
Sheena pushed her away with a kick, towering over her with eyes devoid of warmth.
“Will giving you another chance bring Dad back? Because of you, he’s in a coma. He’ll never have another chance. So what right do you have to beg for my forgiveness?”
Lauren could not muster a response to Sheena’s questioning, consumed with regret and on the brink of despair.
Sheena’s expression remained indifferent.
“Lauren, you’ve sealed your own fate of a comfortable retirement! Save all your regrets for prison, where you can spend the rest of your days atoning for your sins!‘
With that ironic remark, she sent a message to Lionel, who was waiting outside the mansion. Soon, Lionel and John cin to escort the distraught and uncontrollably weeping Lauren away.
