Chapter 931


    Seeing Romello’s indifferent demeanor, the butler sighed and said nothing, obediently. going about his


    tasks.


    During lunchtime, the atmosphere in the dining room of the Nicholls residence was unusually heavy.


    Gabrielle and Marius sensed that Romello had a lot on his mind and was in a sour mood,


    and they dared not speak, eating in silence with their heads lowered.


    The only sound in the vast dining room was the clinking of utensils against dishes.


    Romello’s face was grim as he suddenly remembered the person locked away on the top


    floor.


    Phoebe now knew the Nicholls family’s secret, and allowing her to stay with Elliot was a significant


    threat.


    Romello wished he could kill her immediately.


    With a loud tter, he mmed his utensils onto the table.


    The sudden sharp noise startled both Gabrielle and Marius, causing them to tremble.


    Being timid and indecisive, Marius promptly set down his utensils upon seeing Romello stop eating,


    silently sitting there.


    Gabrielle felt too awkward to continue eating as well. She set down her utensils and


    turned to Romello.


    “Romello, what’s wrong?” she cautiously asked, probing further, “Is it because of… Phoebe’s matter?”


    Romello looked up and seemed to have an idea.


    “Since Sheena imed to have lost her crystal earrings, you should return them to her. If


    you like them that much, I’ll get you a simr pair.”


    Gabrielle dared not refuse and reluctantly agreed, “Okay.”


    Romello continued, “Since Sheena manipted you to take Phoebe away, she probably


    feels guilty. During this time, visit the Jenkins estate more often.”


    “Huh?” Gabrielle was bewildered. “But didn’t you tell me to stay away from Sheenast


    night..


    “Last night wasst night. Now that Phoebe is over there, we’re unsure of her safety. Can’t you visit


    more often for that reason?”


    Gabrielle was speechless


    Was he asking her to be a double agent?


    If Romello found out she willingly helped with Phoebe’s disappearance, would he fly into a rage and


    harm her?


    Gabrielle felt a lump in her throat, lowering her head even further.


    She did not want Phoebe toe back at all.


    Romello, Sheena and Phoebe are as close as sisters. She won’t harm Phoebe. Besides, you said


    Phoebe is very ill, right? Sheena taking her away for treatment might be a good thing. It saves us the


    trouble.”


    A loud crashing noise interrupted her.


    In his fury. Romello overturned the porcin te before him, shards flying everywhere.


    Marius and Gabrielle both flinched.


    Gabrielle, tearful and frightened, bit her lip.


    Trembling, she apologized, “Romello, I’m sorry. I was wrong.”


    Romello’s expression softened slightly, saying, “Even though you and Phoebe aren’t close, she’s still


    your biological sister. She’s seriously ill, and she’s mentally unstable. As her sister, shouldn’t you visit


    her?”


    “Alright. I’ll go see her this afternoon.”


    “Be careful. I’ll arrange for two skilled bodyguards to apany you.”


    Gabrielle nodded without much thought.


    “Okay, got it.”


    Rome’s demeanor quickly rxed.


    A servant brought a new set of utensils and ced them neatly in front of Romello.


    Romello picked up his fork and spoon, returning to his usual nonchnt demeanor.

    Marius and Gabrielle finally dared to touch their food, focusing on eating with bowed


    heads.


    After a while, Romello continued, “Marius, is thepany busytely?”


    Marius looked up in confusion.


    He was about to say he was pretty busy, but Romello continued on his own.


    “If it’s not too busy, I’ll have my men arrange a vacant position at the National Investigation Bureau for


    you.”
