Chapter 780 Santiago was delighted with the congratulations, looking approvingly at Elliot.
“Eli, considering these two great-grandchildren, this time...” “Grandpa!” Stanley quickly interrupted, unwilling to let Elliot emerge unscathed from the situation. He stood up, visibly agitated.
“Ms. Lawson's pregnancy is indeed a joyous occasion. However, we should address Elliot's actions separately! He's giving away the shares of the Jenkins Group just because Ms. Lawson is pregnant. When the twins are born, he might end up gifting away the entire Jenkins family!” He sternly reminded Santiago, “The shares are not meant for the children but for Sheena! The Lawson family is her maternal family. Who knows if she might take the shares back hin the future!” The atmosphere in the hall, once again, becheavy due to his words.
Sheena, hearing the term ‘maternal family’, felt a slight stiffness in her spine, finding an ironic twist in the situation.

Sensing her change in mood, Elliot immediately embraced her shoulders, providing reassurance.
Dealing with the current situation was crucial, and Sheena regained composure.
Then, she looked at Santiago, saying, “Grandpa Santiago, actually, | chere today to discuss the matter of shares. Even though Eli won't agree to take them back, | have the right to decide how to allocate them. a “I plan to draft an agreement, promising that after the birth of our twins, I'll gift each of them half of the Jenkins Group shares | hold.” After all, the twins would carry the Jenkins surname, and if the shares remained with them, it would still be within the Jenkins family.
It was a gift for the two youngest great-grandchildren, and no one could dispute it.
Santiago looked quite pleased with Sheena’s proposal.
He turned to Grant and laughed joyfully, commenting, “Sheena is indeed a sensible and good child! Eli sure is lucky to have her!” Grant joined in with a contented smile. “Yes, Ms. Lawson is understanding. She rushed over for Mr. Jenkins’s matter. It shows she genuinely cares about him!” The two exchanged smiles, bringing a harmonious atmosphere back to the hall.
Chapter 780 212 The initially solemn atmosphere lightened up significantly upon learning about the two little ones in Sheena’s belly.
Santiago was overjoyed, his grin stretching from ear to ear. He had Grant prepare two expensive gifts, which he personally handed to Sheena in front of all the elders and Stanley.
His hands, wrinkled with rough skin, gently patted Sheena’s hand, and with a heartfelt tone, he said, “Sheena, you're truly blessed. No matter how much difficulties lie ahead, you'll surely turn things around.” Sheena, not one for false modesty, graciously accepted the two gifts.

Elliot, wrapping his arm around her waist, cautiously leaned in and asked, “Grandpa, do | get a gift too? | played a part in giving you great-grandchildren, after all.” Santiago's expression immediately turned serious.
He lightly tapped Elliot's leg with his cane, sternly lecturing, “You're going to be a father. You can’t act recklessly anymore, only thinking about the present and neglecting the future! And another thing! Sheena is now the most precious person in our Jenkins family. You have to treat her well and stand by her side. If you dare mistreat her, | won't spare you!” Elliot smiled. “I wouldn't dare to.” Santiago then turned to Sheena, adding, “Sheena, if he ever upsets you, don’t hesitate to teach him a lesson! I'll always support you!” Touched, Sheena nodded repeatedly. “Thank you, Grandpa Santiago.” Exiting the hall, the two of them returned to E&S Haven together.
Throughout the journey, Sheena did not exchange a single word with Elliot, leaving him feeling uneasy.
He tugged at her dress, asking, “Nana, are you mad at me?” She did not turn around, heading straight upstairs, her tone calm.
“No, you almost suffered for my sake.” “But...” Elliot bit his lip, whispering, “You're being so cold...”
