Chapter 877
Especially when Phoebe mentioned the red marks on Vanda’s wrist.
However, Romello was in charge, and he was Vanda’s son.
How could he possibly mistreat his own mother?
There was something very fishy about this.
As Sheena accepted Elliot’s spoon–feeding, she asked him, “Romello is the deputy chief of your National Investigation Bureau, right? How much do you know about him?”
Elliot’s hand froze, his handsface turning cold, and a hint of displeasure creeping in.
“Why are you suddenly asking about him? Did you fall for his looks at the banquet last night?”
Elliot’s tone was full of jealousy.
He remembered Nathaniel resembling Romello a lot, except for the eye color and aura.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtSheena playfully tapped his forehead, teasing, “What the hell are you thinking? Why are you jealous over that? You need to chill out.”
Elliot remained quiet, his face showing annoyance, clearly still not over it.
Sheena sighed, earnestly explaining, “I’m only asking because I’m concerned about Phoebe’s situation. We already have children together; no other man can catch my eye.”
That sounded much better to Elliot, and he decided to drop it.
“Romello is slick and cunning, with a lot of hidden agendas. He’s good at pretending to be nice but
actually has ulterior motives. Knowing him for so many years, I can tell he’s all about self–interest, and very pragmatic. Family and love are secondary to him.”
Sheena quickly understood, saying, “So, if Madam Nicholls poses a threat to his interests, he might harm her?”
Elliot pondered for a moment, replying, “That’s… hard to say. After all, she’s his mother. He shouldn’t be capable of harming her.”
The more they discussed this, the more Sheena worried about Phoebe’s situation.
“I hope Phoebe can safely get through the welcome–back banquet and beca true heiress, marrying Howard soon.”
Putting down the bowl, Elliot wrapped his arm around Sheena’s waist and rested his head on her belly.
“Instead of worrying about others‘ marriages, why don’t we think about when we should have our own wedding?”
Chapter 877
“Well…” Sheena hesitated, considering the matter. “The babies are only a little over a month old. They’re too young. We can have the wedding when they’re a bit older.”
Bringing up the topic of the babies, Elliot did not want to say much more lest Sheena thinks he did not
care about them.
He playfully nuzzled her belly, continuing to persuade her, “Okay, so we can delay the wedding, but how about we go on a honeymoon abroad first?”
“No, the babies are still so young. If we travel, it’ll be for many days. It might be too much for Auntie Freida to take care of both babies. Let’s wait until the babies are at least ten years old and more independent before considering it.”
He had to wait so long to travel with Sheena?
Even though Elliot was frustrated, he could not voice his complaints as Sheena’s wooden ruler was in the bedside drawer while the washboard was in the closet.
Those two dreaded items silently oppressed him.
As Sheena ran her fingers through his short hair, her mind wandered.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmShe suddenly remembered Phoebe’s request from last night and quickly called Howard, relaying Phoebe’s message to him word for word.
“Hello, Howard… that’s roughly how it went. Phoebe thinks there’s more to the Nicholls family’s secret, but her phone was confiscated, so she could only askto tell you.
On the other end of the line, Howard’s deep voice sounded after a long pause.
“Okay, Nana, I got it. I’ll look into these matters properly.”
“Howard, when do you plan to propose to the Nicholls family? I’ll arrange my schedule to go with you,
Howard considered for a moment before replying, “We’ll go to the Nicholls family the day after the return banquet.”
“Okay.”
The days before the banquet were relatively peaceful.
Sheena spent her tbetween the Lawson Group and E&S Haven, gradually forming a routine.
Two days before the return banquet, Angle Group hired a new batch of experienced trainees, rumored to be quite good–looking.
Sheena planned to personally oversee them and check out the eye candies.
She could not let Elliot know about this, or he might drag her back hin a fit of jealousy. Hence, she left Elliot at E&S Haven to take care of the babies with Freida while he handled business remotely.
Chapter 877
Sheena drove to Angle Group herself.
Twenty–four handstrainees stood neatly in three rows, truly a feast for the eyes.
