Chapter 621
Sheena had been discreetly messaging Ford, Instructing Dark Bell to investigate all
women named Kelly in Laubabwe and find someone whose experiences resembled
Nathaniel’s mother.
Naomi’s sudden exclamation caught her attention, and she looked up, meeting Colin’s
familiar face.
“Colin?”
Having not seen him for a few days, he seemed to have changed a lot. His eyes lacked the
previous vibrancy and now appeared numb and reserved.
Surprised to see him in a waiter’s uniform, Sheena asked, “Have you been working here
lately?”
Colin stood frozen, looking embarrassed. He did not answer Sheena’s question and turned
to leave.
Sheena called out to him, “Considering our friendship over the years, Mr. Upton, why don’t
you sit down and have a drink with us?”
Naomi, still holding a grudge against the Upton family for their previous harm to Sheena,
chimed in, “Sheena, the Upton family has fallen from grace. He doesn’t deserve to be

my friend.”
Colin, originally at the door, turned around upon hearing Naomi’s words.
“I didn’t help Katie harm you. Also, Katie is now in the women’s prison. Haven’t she
suffered enough by now?”
Both Gabrielle and Naomi were ready to explode, but Sheena held them back to prevent
an immediate confrontation.
Sheena chuckled lightly, saying, “Originally, I didn’t intend to bother with her after she
was sent to prison. But hearing you say that, I think she’s having it a bit too easy.”
Colin was shocked. “Sheena, I never thought you could be so heartless. She’s just an
ignorant girl. She’s already received the punishment she deserves.”
Sheena took a sip of juice, her beautiful eyes indifferent, choosing not to respond.
Naomi was the first to express her displeasure, “Why don’t you say how wicked your sister
is? She’s. an adult, yet she claims to be ignorant. She’s nothing more than a spoiled brat
raised by your family!”
“Exactly!” Gabrielle followed, angered. “You know very well what you all did during Katie’s
birthday party. No matter how Sheena treated Katie, it was never excessive!”
Colin felt hopeless.
These past few days had been like living in hell for his family.
They don’t even have enough money to bribe the prison guards to visit Katie.
Nicole cried every day, lamenting her daughter’s suffering. Even in his old age, Ron tried
to find

work, but due to Elliot’s influence, no company dared to hire him.
The entire family struggled to get by in a cramped the apartment.
No matter what sins Katie committed before, this should be enough to settle the score,
right?
Colin held the tray with both hands, gripping it tightly. He endured as much as he could,
but eventually lowered his pride to plead with Sheena.
“Sheena, for the sake of our friendship over the years, I beg you to spare Katje. Bail her
out, and we’ll take her to the countryside to live peacefully. I promise we won’t disturb
your life
Sheena remained expressionless. “Considering our friendship, I’ll pretend I didn’t see you
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmtoday. I’ll let you continue working here peacefully. Katie’s fate is her own doing. I’m not a
saint, and I can’t help, nor do I want to help.”
Naomi promptly ushered him out.
“Did you hear that? Get out. Let your manager send another waiter.
Colin lowered his head, hiding the frustration and resentment in his eyes, and left the
private room.
He walked through the restaurant’s aisle with a heavy, zombie–like pace.
Fred, the waiter temporarily assigned to manage this room, passed by Colin, and muttered
discontentedly. “As expected from a spoilt kid from a wealthy family. He can’t do any job
right and offended the customers again, yet he still insists on exploiting my working
hours.”
Colin heard every word clearly and turned to glare at him.
Growing even more displeased, Fred retorted, “What are you looking at? I was just stating
facts!”
As the cursing voice faded away, Colin’s face was a mask of despair.
Being suppressed by Elliot and ridiculed by everyone over the days had taken a toll on
him. Katie’s words before she went to jail echoed in his ears….
