Wait, She’s a Billionaire ( Sheena Lawson )
Chapter 687
His obsidian eyes shimmered with a subtle glow, capturing the shocked or frightened expressions of everyone. Soon, a faint smirk played on his thin lips.
âWhen did I ever admit that I was blind?â
âHâHow is this possible? Your eyes are fine?â
Peterâs wrinkled face showed a mix of astonishment and confusion. However, he quickly caught on.
âDid you purposely set this up?â
Elliot neither confirmed nor denied. With an indifferent tone, he said, âThanks to you, Uncle Peter, Iâve managed to clear out a bunch of disloyal people in one go.â
Unwilling to accept this, Peter protested, âIf your eyes are fine, then all these recent events are just misunderstandings. Itâs not like we committed any major wrongdoing. Who are you to punish everyone here?â
âSpreading rumors of my blindness, deliberately causing trouble at E&S Haven, abusing public office for personal gain, and some even have a messy personal life. Uncle Peter, do you want me to list them all here?â
Elliot paused for a moment before adding mockingly, âIn other words, I call the shots here! Did you really think Iâm unaware of those shady things youâve been up to?â
In the conference hall, many averted their gaze, afraid to speak.
Logan added angrily, âWhere thereâs smoke, thereâs fire! In the past, Mr. Jenkins tolerated your misdeeds, and you really thought you were invincible? Those of you with some sense, take your punishment notices and leave!â
Now cornered, Peter felt humiliated and had nothing more to say.
He had fallen for Romelloâs words, and Elliot had outplayed him!
âElliot, until next time!â Peter snorted and walked away.
Unexpectedly, Elliot reminded him, âUncle Peter, youâre being reassigned to Monteal City for five years. Take care of yourself if you want to meet again.â
Peter, infuriated by it all, shot him a glare and left.
With Peter gone, the elders of the Jenkins family and the directors of the Jenkins Group, left without a leader, also left dejectedly.
In a matter of minutes, half the people in the conference hall disappeared.

Elliot turned to Romello, who had remained silent.
âYou havenât voiced your view. Do you think the punishment is too lenient, and youâre dissatisfied?â
Romello chuckled lightly.
Peter might not know about the virus in Elliotâs body, but he knew.
When Romello rescued Nathaniel from Elliotâs grasp, Nathaniel personally told him about the condition in exchange for the rescue.
âMr. Jenkins, do you really think a desperate move can conceal your true condition?â
Elliot raised an eyebrow lightly. âEven I am not aware of my own condition. Care to share your insights?â
Romello was about to speak but hesitated, suddenly realizing this was another trap set by Elliot.
The records of Nathanielâs misconduct stated that he stole the highly corrosive S40 experimental substance. If Romello spoke the truth, indicating he knew the truth, Nathanielâs wrongdoing would implicate him.
Elliot believed that even if Romello knew the truth, he could not disclose it.
âWell done, Mr. Jenkins! I admit defeat this time!â Romello said, standing up, bowing to Elliot, and turning to leave.
âHold on.â Elliot signaled to Lance. âSince youâre suspicious of my health, I should clarify for you to avoid future unnecessary troubles.â
Lance promptly handed Romello a set of thirteen examination reports from hospitals, all confirming Elliotâs good health.
Romello glanced at them, understanding that Noah had helped Elliot with these certificates.
It was hard for him to swallow this pride.
He chuckled lightly, replying, âMr. Jenkins, you excel in both bureaucracy and business. I truly admire that! Unfortunately, when it comes to love, it seems youâre destined to be a lonely man.â
Elliot frowned, and his face instantly turned cold.
Romello feigned surprise. âOh, it seems youâre unaware. Your fiancee, Ms. Lawson, and Nathaniel announced that theyâre having their wedding ceremony at Florence Cathedral in Laubabwe in a few days. Itâs already making headlines

internationally. Mr. Jenkins, arenât you following the news?â
