Chapter 899
Seeing Elliot’s grim expression, Lionel quickly stepped forward and pulled Jacintha away.
He pretended to be stern and lectured Jacintha, “I’ve told you countless times that Sheena is Elliot’s sweetheart. You can look, but you can’t touch. Be careful not to upset him, or he’ll send me to straighten you out!”
Jacinta pouted, sulking silently.
The term “sweetheart” made Sheena blush slightly,
She waved for Jacintha to come to her side and said to Elliot, “You go ahead and cook. Let Lionel and Howard assist you. I’ll take Jacintha upstairs to see the babies.”
Jacintha instantly brightened up and happily ran back to Sheena’s side, and the two quickly went upstairs.
Downstairs in the living room, the three men looked at each other.
Howard and Lionel were clueless about cooking, not even knowing how to clean the vegetables, let alone anything else.
The atmosphere became awkward in an instant
In the end, Howard and Lionel leaned against the kitchen door, watching Elliot cook skillfully inside
With long legs, a well–proportioned body, and a perfect physique, Elliot rolled up his shirt sleeves, revealing his muscular and handsome forearms.
As he prepared the ingredients, his exceptionally handsome face looked unusually serious.
After silently observing for a while, Howard could not help but sigh, “Nana is really something. Back in Farlem, I never would’ve imagined she could train you so well.
“If there was a live broadcast, I bet the high–level directors of the Jenkins Group would never have thought that their usually stern and cold CEO would be wearing a black apron and mingling with pots and pans in the kitchen.”
Lionel stifled a laugh with his fist in his mouth. “I’m curious too. When did Elliot become such a good cook? I’m sure Sheena polished his skill before.”
They were all men, and they were all on the same team. Hence, there was no need to feel embarrassed.
Recalling past events, Elliot smiled helplessly.
“The first meal I cooked for Nana was a braised beef that turned into charcoal and deliberately spiced stir–fried vegetable.”
Howard’s expression changed instantly. “Did Nana really eat that?”
Elliot chuckled even more helplessly. “Nana is too clever for that. How could she eat it? She made me

eat it, and I vomited.”
Lionel and Howard burst into laughter.
Howard added, “Nana inherited Noah’s deviousness. She’s full of cunning tricks.”
Lionel chimed in, “If Sheena ever publishes a training manual, it’d probably be a bestseller!”
The three of them laughed, the atmosphere incredibly harmonious.
Sometimes, the joy among men was just that simple, and they could quickly bond after just sharing some lighthearted banter.
Once the stew was ready, Elliot called Sheena and Jacintha downstairs, and the five of them enjoyed a warm meal together.
An hour later, it was early morning.
The sky was pitch black, the city unusually quiet, except for E&S Haven, which remained lively.
Howard, feeling choked with emotions, drank a lot and soon became intoxicated.
In fact, he was thoroughly drunk
He clung to Elliot’s arm, his eyes bloodshot, constantly calling out, “Phoebe, I was wrong… It’s all my fault… Forgive me, come back to me…”
