Chapter 448
The two of them took their seats, and Elliot began his inquiry with a serious tone, what’s the urgency? Has something major happened?”
“Uncle Peter,
Peter stood up, bowing slightly to Santiago before starting to explain, “Late last night, someone bypassed the surveillance cameras, climbed over the wall into Stanley’s mansion, knocked out the bodyguards, and attacked Stanley. The methods used were vicious. If it weren’t for a guard waking up early and saving Stanley from excessive bleeding, he wouldn’t have survived!”
As Peter recounted the events, he glared at Sheena, who seemed indifferent.
Elliot appeared unbothered and asked, “Where is he?”

Peter was dissatisfied, saying, “Ms. Lawson, you’re not part of the Jenkins family. Being an observer is fine, but participating in family discussion might not be appropriate.”
Sheena completely ignored Peter. She stood up and faced Santiago, saying tenderly, “Grandpa Santiago, I’m Eli’s fiancee. Naturally, I’m almost a Jenkins family member. Eli is seriously injured and shouldn’t speak much. I did participate in the matter last night, and on his behalf, I’d like to speak. Is that okay?”
Santiago was pleased to hear her saying she was almost a Jenkins family member.
