I Became His Sweetheart

Chapter 184

Faye pointed at the contract. Her heart was aching as she continued, “Based on the contract, these three are only worth 1.2 billion dollars. In the past, my 20% of shares alone were worth more than this!”

“Oh, Auntie Faye! With Walter's status, it's natural that he’d investigate the details of the Freeman Group. Given the current situation, this is the highest offer we could get. Don’t hesitate anymore!”

“Auntie Faye...” “Fine...”NôvelDrama.Org owns all content.

Bethany persuaded Faye tirelessly, and she finally signed the share transfer agreement. Then, Faye reluctantly handed over the property deed for the Freeman mansion and signed the mortgage contract.

After everything was done, Faye appeared upset, saying, “Now that the funding issue is resolved, you need to be more attentive. Recover the losses and keep a close eye on other projects. No more cutting corners and compromising quality. Hurry up and help me buy back the shares!”

“Yes, Auntie Faye! You can trust me. I'll handle everything properly.”

Bethany clung to her arm, unable to conceal her joy.

Then, the two laughed as they got into the car and left.

As soon as they left, Sheena, sitting in the Angle Group office, received a text message with only two words. [Mission accomplished.]

She sighed in relief. In no more than three days, the Freeman family would undergo a tremendous transformation! She could not be more excited for the day to finally arrive.

Just as Sheena was deep in her thoughts, there was a knock on the door, and Colin walked in. Unlike his usual gentle demeanor, he was frowning and seemed upset.

Before Sheena could ask, he walked straight to the chair opposite her, separated by the office desk. “What's wrong?” Sheena was puzzled.

“| didn’t expect your venture into real estate was for him.”

Colin appeared gloomy, with a hint of melancholy in his eyes.

Sheena was surprised at how quickly Colin found out about this. Then again, it made sense. Despite the Upton family not being as influential as the Lawson family, they were still prominent, and investigating anything was easy for him.

Nevertheless, Sheena did not try to hide it from him.

“That's correct.”

Seeing her calmly admitting it, Colin could not help but feel quite frustrated.

“Why? If you look back, you'll realize that someone better is waiting for you. Can’t you...”

“Are you referring to yourself?” Sheena interrupted him, her calm eyes meeting his.

Colin blushed slightly. He gathered the courage to confess, but Sheena spoke first. “But you should know, you and | would never be together. In fact, I’d rather choose Skye over you.” Colin’s heart sank, obviously hurt by her remark.

“Why? Is it because of Katie? Yes, she did something wrong before, but she’s been grounded lately. She knows she was wrong and won't target you again.”

Sheena shook her head, laughing. “I know you like me. | realized it many years ago. But you only like me because you can’t have me.”

Colin remained silent, looking at her with his reddened eyes.

Sheena continued, “You're gentle, humble, and friendly to anyone, but you have a flaw! You protected someone even though you knew they were in the wrong. You knew how ridiculous Katie was to me at the time, yet you haven’t mentioned it once since we met.”

“|...” Colin choked, feeling unconvinced as he continued asking, “What about Elijah? His sister and mom were also cruel to you. Isn't he the same?”
