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.
Nonetheless, 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 tand found that it was already past 10 a.m., thinking that Elliot must have left for work.

It was Gabrielle.
As she answered the call, she was met with Gabrielle’s distraught crying.
“Sheena, Romello kickedout…
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. Just cover if you need anything.”
Half an hour later, Gabrielle arrived at E&S Haven in tears once again.
The two bodyguards accompanying her were forcefully kept outside the main gate by Sheena, with Ford and Paul standing guard, refusing them entry.
Sheena comforted Gabrielle by rubbing her back gently.
“There, there, don’t cry. Tellwhat 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 forcedto 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 sfate herself.
Frowning, Sheena caught on a key detail.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm“Nathaniel was beaten last 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 to cto 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.”
