Wait She s a Billionaire ( Sheena Lawson ) Chapter 927

Chapter 927

It was a restless night, especially for the Nicholls residence.

Gabrielle had gone to play at Vanda’s relatives‘ house, her phone turned off and unreachable.

As soon as Romello saw Sheena and the others leave, he instructed the bodyguards to find Gabrielle immediately.

Five hours later, in the early hours of the morning, Gabrielle was carried back by the bodyguards from her relatives‘ house and dumped into the altar room.

“Ouch! Watch it, you almost killed me!” Gabrielle exclaimed, rubbing her sore bottom, indignantly complaining about the bodyguard.

The bodyguard bowed politely without saying a word and left the altar room with a bang as the door closed heavily, startling Gabrielle.

In the pitch–black night, the flickering candlelight in the altar room occasionally swayed with the gusts of wind, making Gabrielle gulp nervously as she got up from the floor.

“Kneel.‘

A chilling command echoed from behind her.

Hearing the voice, Gabrielle shuddered all over in fear.

She turned stiffly and saw Romello standing before the Nicholls family ancestors‘ portraits, his face dark and menacing as he held a paddle.

The paddle was solid, obviously soaked in water when taken out, specifically prepared for

her.

Trembling with fear, she reluctantly approached and knelt on the cushion, forcing a nervous chuckle.

“Romello, you’re so scary. What did I do wrong? You even prepared a paddle,” she said, trying to lighten the mood.

Romello pursed his lips, his face as grim as a vengeful spirit, fierce and icy.

“Romello, can’t we talk about this? My skin is delicate, and I can’t handle your spanking. Besides, you’ve never hit me before. Don’t act so rashly,” she pleaded, acting pitiful.

Romello stepped closer, looming over her, his voice as cold as if he were interrogating a criminal.

“I’ll ask you questions, and you must answer truthfully. If you dare lie, I’ll break your legs.”

Gabrielle paled and shook her head.

“I dare not, Romello! Go ahead and ask. I won’t lie.”

“Why did you sneak out tonight?” Romello asked sternly.

Gabrielle hesitated, recalling Sheena’s numerous warnings during the day, and pretended to be clueless.

“I didn’t sneak out, Romello. Why would you think that? Our cousin, Natalie, called me to come over for a visit. I always sleep over at Auntie’s house anyway. I didn’t plan to return tonight, but then your people came looking for me. I frequently stay at her place, so why are you taunting me with the paddle?”

Romello narrowed his eyes, seeing through her facade, and continued, “Are Sheena’s crystal earrings here with you?”

Gabrielle’s heart raced as she remembered Sheena’s instructions to stick to the story.

It would be tough to get through the night if she had not.

With an innocent expression, she looked up and said, “Yes, they’re here with me. Is there a problem with that?”
