Elliot asked, “Which company was the check made out to?” Kyron thought carefully and replied, “I didn’t pay much attention then, but it seemed like... there was the word ‘Lawson’? But maybe | misread it.” As Kyron spoke, Sheena’s expression turned abruptly cold, but she remained silent.
Elliot continued, “You caused this situation, so you owe Skye an explanation. I'll have Lionel take you for questioning. It’s your responsibility for the mistakes you made, do you understand?” Kyron bowed his head in resignation, saying, “I'm sorry, Skye. I'll take responsibility.” Elliot glanced at Lionel, and Lionel immediately escorted both Kyron and Skye to the National Investigation Bureau for questioning. a Elliot planned to release an official statement using the bureau's account to clear Skye’s name.
Once the others left, only Sheena and Elliot remained in the interrogation room.

They used Skye as a pawn.” Elliot pondered for a moment, commenting, “The accounts on the dark web are hard to trace, and the person probably used a false identity. Do you have any suspicions about who might be behind this?” Sheena gave it a thought and said, “Perhaps it’s Uncle Victor. I'll look into it when I get back. They knew that I'd be involved with Skye’s matter. Moreover, it feels like they're deliberately keepingoccupied; they might be plotting something big.” “Nana, aren't you supposed to return to the Lawson family the day after tomorrow?

Once signed, Chapter 764 the entire Lawson family will be mine.” ™ In the Lawson family, there was no concept of a reigning figure.

However, this is a family matter for your Lawson family. Our wedding is scheduled for next month, and | don’t have the right to interfere. Nana, I'm worried...” She held his face, analyzing the situation seriously as she said, “Precisely because tis limited, they'll be anxious and more prone to making mistakes when they strike.
“If we wait and let them prepare thoroughly, the danger towill increase. Trust me, no matter what, when | return to the Lawson family, | have my brothers there, and I'll be safe,” “Nana...” Sheena placed a finger on his lips, silencing the words he wanted to express.
“Eli, you know me. Once I've made my decision, no amount of persuasion will change my mind.” She smiled casually and said, “And who knows, maybe it won't be as dangerous as you think in two days. The truth might cto light instead.”
