Chapter 449
Elliot finally spoke, and all eyes turned to him. He reached to remove the scarf and unbutton his suit.
The wound on his chest was the most direct evidence. As the extensive purple-red hickeys on his chest
and corbone were about to be exposed to all the members of the Jenkins family, Sheena, frightened,
grabbed his shirt and covered him tightly.
“Don’t take it off! So many people are watching! Have you no shame?”
What a bastard!
She would definitely teach him a lesson once he was fully recovered.
Elliot smirked. “I’m a man. Showing some chest is normal.”
This belongs to N?velDrama.Org - ?.
“Not normal!” Sheena red at him angrily and whispered threateningly, “Your body is only for me to
see in the future! Hurry up and get dressed!”
Elliot enjoyed her deration of ownership. He buttoned up and exchanged a nce with Lionel
outside the door.
Lionel brought in a bound young man, throwing him into the center. Then, he took out a document,
which Grant received and handed to Santiago.
“It’s him. While Mr. Jenkins was on a mission, he lied about the news. When I went to catch himst
night, he happened to have taken Mr. Stanley’s payment and was preparing to run. This document
contains his confession,” Lionel exined.
Santiago carefully read the confession, his expression serious.
Peter was slightly stunned. Stanley had clearly told him that the person had already been discreetly
taken care of on the outskirts of town.
How did Lionel manage to catch him?
Santiago handed the confession to Peter, who read it thrice, repeatedly confirming its authenticity.
Finally, he concluded that Stanley’s man had blown the job and had been caught red-handed!
Lionel continued, “As the head of the Jenkins family, Mr. Jenkins was almost killed by Mr. Stanley.
Shouldn’t we handle this ording to the family rules of the Jenkins family?”
All eyes turned to Santiago as if seeking his advice.
In the midst of all the gazes, Santiago stroked his beard, and with Grant’s assistance, he stood up.
“Eli, the Jenkins family is now under your leadership. It’s your decision. I’m going back to rest,” he
dered.
Elliot nodded slightly. “Alright, Grandpa. Take care.”
“Dad! Please don’t go!” Peter shouted a couple of times.
However, Santiago left without looking back, leaving Peter in a difficult situation with no one to help
him.
Stanley had managed to mess up his first independent task!
Santiago paid no attention, leaving the hall without turning back. Once he left, the rest of the Jenkins
family members followed suit, leaving only Sheena, Elliot, Lionel, and Peter.
The young man who hadmitted the offense had been taken away by Lionel.
With everyone gone, there was no need for pretense.
Peter forced a smile and said, “Elliot, Stanley didn’t mean any harm. There’s no need to escte this
and intentionally harm him to your extent. Besides, he’s injured and still unconscious. How about we
call it even?”
Sheena took over the conversation. “Mr. Peter, you’re mistaken. Beating up Stanley was my idea. If
you’re dissatisfied, you can discuss it with me. Regarding Stanley harming Eli, each issue should be
dealt with separately, not bundled together.”
Peter red at her, then turned to Elliot. “Elliot, what do
you say?”
Elliot pulled Sheena onto hisp, pampering her by gently rubbing her small face, disying affection
openly. “Nana is right. Each issue should be dealt with separately.”
Then, he turned to Peter, his gaze turning cold again. “I heard Stanley is still unconscious and seriously
injured. Is that true?”
Peter chuckled. “Yes. I’ll scold himter. He needs to be more careful next time.”
Ignoring Peter’s response, Elliot looked at Lionel. “Bring Stanley over. Even if he needs to be carried,
make sure he’s brought to the hall.”
Peter’s expression shifted slightly, and he immediately signaled the guards outside.
Twenty minutester, Stanley, escorted by Lionel, entered the hall.
