Chapter 1009


    Kot paused in his y with the baby, meeting Nathaniel’s gaze for a moment before quickly feturning to


    his usual demeanor.


    In response to the probing question, Elliot neither agreed nor refused but instead countered, “How do


    you want me to help?”


    Nathaniel remained unfazed, maintaining a casualposure on his face.


    “I’ve never been in a position of power before, so Ick experience. You, on the other hand, are the


    experienced one. Of course I’ll follow


    your advice.”


    Elliot fell silent, focusing on entertaining Asher.


    Nathaniel was patient, showing no signs of urgency as he continued to y with Adora.


    Later that evening…


    Sheena had been workingte the past few days, focusing on nning the uing Dorvell


    Corporation’s bidding conference.


    Although Nell assured her that the bidding conference was just a formality and that the Lawson Group


    would be the chosen winner, Sheena still felt the need to strive for perfection and ensure a


    fair victory.


    Returning from her study to the bedroom, Sheena rubbed her sore shoulders and neck.


    Elliot was sitting on the bed, ying with his phone. When he saw her enter the room, he quickly.


    slipped on his slippers and lifted her onto the bed.


    After settling cross–legged on the bed, he ced Sheena on hisp.


    Then, Elliot tirelessly massaged her shoulders, back, and legs.


    Sheena closed her eyes, basking in thefort of his touch.


    After a few minutes of massage, she began to feel rejuvenated.


    As Elliot continued massaging her, his thoughts suddenly drifted, and he recalled Nathaniel’s


    discussion earlier in the nursery.


    He felt it was necessary to seek Sheena’s opinion.


    “Honey, Nathaniel has been visiting our home frequentlytely, and there have been intense power


    struggles within the Nicholls family. He seems to be interested in having me help him acquire shares.


    What do you think?”


    Sheena opened her eyes and turned to him, asking, “What do you think?”


    Power is something that many peopleck the discipline to handle


    is one easily, especially considering Mathaniel’s questionable past. If he gaine


    power, he could be a dangerous individual.

    ained silent for a long time before responding, “You already have your own thoughts on this matter, so


    why bother asking me?


    Elliot’s hand continued to knead Sheera’s shoulder, but his mind was tangled in indecision.


    The grudges from the past were already a thing of the past.


    This time, Nathaniel returned and lent a helping hand. In return, he even took a beating.


    Aspensation, Nathaniel made a request: as long as it was within his capabilities, they should


    However, Elliot still harbored some reservations toward Nathaniel.


    Sheena seemed to sense what was on his mind and sighed, analyzing the situation seriously.


    “With Romello imprisoned, the Nicholls Group has suffered setbacks. Now is the time for a reliable


    leader to stabilize the situation. Nathaniel excels in all aspects, whereas Marius might not be suitable


    for the role. He’s too weak–willed and soft–spoken to take on such a big responsibility. As for the others


    from their extended families, they’re not easy to deal with. Giving them power would likely lead to


    Gabrielle and the others being ousted from the Nicholls residence in no time.”


    Elliot remained silent, looking at Sheena in his arms, surprised that she had already considered


    these factors.


    Sheena continued, “Considering Nathaniel’s assistance this time and his role as Asher and Adora’s


    godfather, we should help him out as a gesture of goodwill. Moreover, I heard from Howard that if


    Nathaniel gains power, he and Phoebe can finally get engaged and live together openly. So, giving


    Nathaniel power would be beneficial for everyone. How about trusting him this time?”
