Wait, She’s a Billionaire ( Sheena Lawson )
Chapter 543
In a minimalist, monochromeâthemed study, Elliot took the cigarette Lionel handed him, brought it to his nose, and elegantly took a few sniffs.
This action might seem slightly questionable if done by someone else, but Elliotâs every move exuded grace and nobility, an aura of coldness and distinction, almost as if he were savoring fine champagne.
After taking a few breaths, Elliot nonchalantly tossed the cigarette into the trash can.
Lionel had the lighter ready and was stunned to see Elliot simply throwing the cigarette into the trash
can.
âMr. Jenkins, aâarenât you going to smoke it?â
Elliot sighed. âSmoking will leave lingering odors on my clothes and the study. Sheâs too clever, always able to detect the slightest traces. Besides, smoking isnât a good habit.â
A quick whiff of satisfaction was enough.
Lionel nodded thoughtfully.
âWhen you leave later, remember to take the trash from the study with you.â
âYes, Mr. Jenkins.â
Perhaps as a form of selfâconsolation, Elliot felt more at ease after smelling the cigarette. He thought this method was quite effective and less likely to be discovered by Sheena. Hence, he decided he would indulge a bit more.
âThe brand of this cigarette is not bad. Lionel, if you have time this afternoon, buy me some more cigarettes and hide them all in a drawer.â
âIn the mansion?â Lionel gasped in shock, grinning. âYouâve got some nerve! Arenât you practically committing a crime right under Ms. Sheenaâs nose?â
He was tiptoeing along the edge of getting hit, constantly pushing his luck!
Elliot gently massaged his forehead, unfazed. âNana is occupied during the day, and she rarely checks drawers when she returns at night. Just find a discreet corner. She wonât notice it.â
Really?
Lionel found this plan a bit unreliable.
Or was Elliot subtly hinting to himself that he was itching for a beating after a few days without one from Sheena? After all, he thought Elliot was someone with a penchant for masochismâ¦
The last time Elliot was beaten up, Lionel got a raise.
He sighed inwardly but dared not directly ask. Someone as proud and accomplished as Elliot would never admit to having any peculiar preferences in that regard. Nevertheless, if Elliot liked it, as a

subordinate and friend, Lionel felt obliged to lend a hand!
Noticing Lionelâs silence, Elliot cast a cold glance to the side and raised an eyebrow slightly.
âIs my message not clear enough?â

Lionel, catching onto the subtle eyebrow gesture, nodded. âDonât worry! As long as you like it, I wonât disappoint you. But⦠are you really sure youâve thought this throughâ¦â
What if Sheena went berserk after discovering it later?
Could Elliot handle a beating?
Lionel was genuinely concerned, having mixed feelings about the situation.
Elliot listened with a puzzled expression, his cold gaze fixed on Lionel.
âI get it! Iâll get it done immediately, and I promise itâll be handled properly!â
Exiting the study, Lionel gently closed the door behind him. Elliot glanced toward the door. For some reason, Lionel gave him an extremely unreliable feeling today.
