Chapter 969


    Elliot gave it a thought, recalling Nathaniel had shown genuine care for Sheena during her pregnancy


    in Laubabwe.


    He was even ready to be the twins‘ stepfather.


    Nheless, Elliot could not decide on this matter alone and said, “I can’t make that call. Once things


    settle down, you can ask Nana herself for her opinion.


    Nathaniel could tell Elliot was a henpecked husband, and he suppressed a smile.


    “Alright.”


    Sheena woke up naturally, having slept deeply through the night.


    She reached for the bedside table to check the time and found that it was already past 10 a.m., thinking


    that Elliot must have left for work.


    Rubbing her sleepy eyes, she was about to sit up when her phone rang.


    It was Gabrielle.


    As she answered the call, she was met with Gabrielle’s distraught crying.


    “Sheena, Romello kicked me out…


    Gabrielle was choked with sobs, making it hard for Sheena to understand the rest of what


    she said.


    “I haven’t left yet, and I’m still at E&S Haven. Juste over if you need anything.”


    Half an hourter, Gabrielle arrived at E&S Haven in tears once again.


    The two bodyguards apanying her were forcefully kept outside the main gate by Sheena, with


    Ford and Paul standing guard, refusing them entry.


    Sheenaforted Gabrielle by rubbing her back gently.


    “There, there, don’t cry. Tell me what happened?”


    Thinking about Romello’s words earlier that morning, Gabrielle could not help but feel heartbroken.


    “Romello has changed. I don’t recognize him anymore,” she sobbed.


    “He forced me to bring the bodyguards into Phoebe’s room. When I couldn’t do it, he threatened to


    spank me.”


    Gabrielle admitted everything straightforwardly, her innocence shining through.


    “Last night, Nathaniel was beaten by him. Sheena, I’m so scared. Please help me.”


    Gabrielle trembled in Sheena’s embrace as she recounted Nathaniel being beaten the night before, still


    shaken by the incident and fearful of facing the same fate herself.


    Frowning, Sheena caught on a key detail.


    “Nathaniel was beatenst night? Why?”


    Gabrielle stared at Sheena, puzzled.


    “Don’t you know? I sent you a text asking for help. Didn’t you get Mr. Jenkins toe to the Nicholls


    residence to save Nathaniel?”


    Sheena checked her phone and read the message, paying special attention to the timestamp.


    At that time, she was still asleep, so it must have been Elliot who read her message and went to handle


    the situation himself.


    Since Elliot had already rescued Nathaniel, there should not be any major issues.

    Sheena skipped over that matter and continued her questioning. “Romello asked you to find a way to


    bring the bodyguards into Phoebe’s room alone?”


    “Yes,”


    Gabrielle nodded earnestly.


    Sheena chuckled, finding Romello’s actions quite desperate.


    Despite knowing her sister’s innocence, he had given her such a challenging task.


    Gabrielle grasped Sheena’s hands and pleaded, “Sheena, please help me. I think Romello just wants


    the bodyguards to convey a message to Phoebe. They’ll probably be out in just a few minutes.”
