“Me? Heartless?” Sheena chuckled, feeling her anger rising.
However, considering Howard's distress, she patiently said, “I don’t want to argue with someone who's not

across the face.
The loud smack meant she had put all her strength into it, causing Howard's face to turn to the side with a red
mark quickly appearing
He stared at her in disbelief.
Even Elliot was stunned, frozen in place.
Howard rubbed his sore cheek, his eyes slowly filling with
anger.
“Sheena, did you just hit me?”

Can you listen seriously to the head of the family?”
Her face was stern, displaying the authority of the family head.

Howard clenched his jaw tightly, refusing to say another word.
Sheena linked arms with Elliot and walked away.
Before leaving, she left one final remark, “Callwhen you're calm enough to think things through.”
Howard stood still, silently watching Sheena and Elliot enter their car.
However, the luxurious vehicle remained stationary for a while.
It was not until fifteen minutes later that the sound of disciplined footsteps approached.
