Wait She s a Billionaire ( Sheena Lawson ) Chapter 866

Chapter 866

Elliot’s gaze darkened.

“It sounds like you’re looking forward to my career suffering. Are you referring to the Jenkins Group or the National Investigation Bureau?”

“Mr. Jenkins, aren’t you a funny one? How could I dare to think that? Your success brings me great joy. too,” Romello replied, bowing slightly in fear.

Uninterested in exposing Romello’s pretense, Elliot said, “I hope you can live up to your words. But even if you can’t, it doesn’t matter because you’re not capable enough to bring me down.‘

Romello’s expression stiffened momentarily, but he quickly regained his smile, exuding reverence.

As the awkward conversation between the two ended, Sheena and Phoebe returned just in time.

The two pairs entered the main hall one after the other.

Upon entering the venue, Phoebe was immediately led by Romello to meet several business tycoons, seemingly helping her expand her network.

Observing from afar, Sheena saw no issues and shifted her focus to mingling with business associates, seizing the opportunity to discuss collaborations.

Meanwhile, Phoebe was being led by Romello to toast with the business tycoons. After ten glasses of red wine, she began to feel a bit tipsy. When another glass was offered to her; she declined.

“Romello, I can’t drink anymore. I don’t want to.”

Romello did not insist, apologizing to Wayne Santos across from them before drinking the offered glass on Phoebe’s behalf.

He then smiled at Phoebe, asking, “Phoebe, what do you think of Mr. Santos? How do you find him?”

Wayne stood before them, listening intently with a confident smile.

Phoebe glanced at Wayne, who was nearing his forties and looked decent for a middle–aged man, but compared to Howard, he fell short by far too much.

She lowered her head and casually remarked, “Mr. Santos seems very talented and distinguished. He’s obviously a seasoned player in the business field.”

Pleased with her compliment, Wayne beamed.

“Ms. Phoebe, you have such a keen eye. Besides these qualities, I’m also very caring,” he said, reaching out toward Phoebe’s fair hand.

Phoebe promptly hid behind Romello, her slightly flushed face betraying caution.

“Mr. Santos, I’m already in a relationship. If my boyfriend finds out about this, he won’t be happy.”

Wayne felt embarrassed, offering a half–hearted smile as he withdrew his hand.

Once Wayne left, Romello whispered to Phoebe, “Phoebe, who do you think is more suitable to be your future husband, Mr. Santos or Howard?”

“What do you mean?” Phoebe stepped back in disbelief, staring at him incredulously. “I’m already dating Howard. Why are you asking me this?”

Romello simply chuckled. “Why are you nervous? Mr. Santos did approach me yesterday, mentioning a marriage proposal and offering 15% of the Santos Group’s shares as part of the wedding gift. However, I haven’t agreed yet. I was just simply asking you.

Phoebe did not trust him at all and distanced herself even further. “The shares are worthless to me. If you dare to agree, I’ll cut ties with the Nicholls family forever!”

Her stance on this matter was resolute.

“If you insist on using your sister as a pawn in your business alliance, find Gabrielle. Howard and I are already dating.”

Romello shook his head helplessly, earnestly analyzing the situation with her.

“While the Lawson family may be better than the Santos family, Sheena is the one in charge of the Lawson family. Even if Howard genuinely wants to marry you, he can’t possibly offer you even 10% of the Lawson Group’s shares as a wedding gift. He doesn’t have that authority.”

Phoebe stared at him in shock. “What’s more important, shares or your sister’s lifelong happiness? Even if Howard can’t offer shares from the Lawson Group, he would never shortchange me in the wedding gifts. Are you deliberately bringing me to business gatherings to introduce me to your business partners and trade me for shares?”
