Wait, She’s a Billionaire ( Sheena Lawson )
Chapter 945
Gabrielle looked at Sheena, puzzled.
âSheena, youâre joking, right? Romello couldnât possibly imprison Mom, let alone inject her with anything. My mom has always been oddâtempered and rarely leaves the house. She only reluctantly attends events when Romello insists.â
Sheena sighed softly, patiently explaining, âIsnât it strange that your mom only listens to Romello?â
âWellâ¦â Gabrielle stared at her blankly.
and their She continued, âPhoebe and Howard have been dating for over a year, relationship is stable. But at the Nicholls familyâs return banquet, she publicly admitted her engagement to the Santos family, acting as if she didnât recognize me or Howard, only Romello.
âThink about your momâs situation. Doesnât it sound familiar?â
Gabrielle fell silent, carefully recollecting.
Whenever Vanda appeared at formal events, it seemed like she only had eyes for Romello.
Gabrielleâs face paled, unable to fathom that Romello could do such a thing.
She was shocked!
Sheena reached out and grasped her hand again, trying to persuade her.
âGabrielle, what Romello is doing is illegal and should be condemned. Helping me once more is also helping the Nicholls family and your mom, okay?â
Gabrielle trembled violently, still reeling from the horrifying news.
âWâWhat do you need me to do?â
âFind a way to the top floor, locate the drugs Romello administers to your mom, and
bring them to me.â
Gabrielle withdrew her hand decisively.
âI canât. Romello guards the top floor very tightly, and I donât stand a chance. Heâs the one in charge of the Nicholls family now, and his temper has been terrible lately. If I accidentally expose myself, heâll definitely punish me. I canât risk it.â

Sheena tried to reassure her desperately, âTrust me, Iâll help you. I wonât let you get hurt. Do you really want to see your mom continue to suffer under his control?â
âIâI donât knowâ¦â
With tears welling in her eyes, Gabrielle felt deeply uneasy.
Vand had never cared for her, and she lacked maternal love, with only her father and brothers providing affection.
When it came to Vanda, Gabrielle felt no deep bond.
Hence, she could not bring herself to take that step and do the impossible task for Vanda.
âI canât do it. I really canât.â
Gabrielle covered her head in distress, adding, âPhoebe is strong. She climbed to the top floor before, but I canât. The only way in for me is through the iron gate, and the only keys are held by Romello and the butler. They guard it tightly, and I donât stand a chance. Iâm sorry, Sheena. I really canât help you! Iâm too scared, and I canât do it!â
âItâs okay. I wonât force you,â Sheena reassured her, sighing.
Gabrielle shuddered at the thought of Romelloâs terror.
âDonât worry, Sheena. Iâll keep this secret and pretend I didnât hear anything. I wonât stop you from doing what you need to do. I just hope I donât get dragged into this. Iâm terrified.â
âOkay,â Sheena said, patting her back. âRomello wanted you to check on Phoebe, right? Letâs go have a look at Phoebe together. If you donât, he might come after you again
when you return.â
âThank you, Sheena.â
Together, they went upstairs to the guest room.
Phoebe was still asleep, and Riley had given her a sedative, following Yosefâs instructions.
Howard stood by her side, having stayed up for two nights straight.
His eyes were red, and there were dark circles beneath them.
Gabrielle did not feel particularly fond of Phoebe. She glanced at her briefly before leaving.

As Sheena saw her off, she released the two bodyguards Romello had assigned from the
basement.
Due to Gabrielleâs refusal, progress stalled once again.
Sheena made her way to the fourth floor, tending to the babies with Freida.
