Chapter 930
The butler had already gone to remind Romello more than five times.
Since Romello came back last night, his mood had been consistently sour, and a few more reminders might just cause the butler to face Romello’s wrath.
The butler, feeling intimidated, could only bow and say, “Please wait, sir. Mr. Romello is finishing up his tasks and will be down shortly.”
Wayne had no choice but to continue waiting.
Another half hour passed, and Romello finally descended the stairs leisurely at 11.30 a.m.
Since the matter with the National Investigation Bureau had been halted by Elliot, Romello was not dressed in military attire today. He wore a simple and refreshing shirt and trousers, appearing more approachable than before.
“Mr. Santos, what brings you here today? Are you here to see Phoebe?”
Wayne glanced at his watch again.
Seeing that it was almost noon, he did not have time for small talk with Romello and got straight to the point.
“Mr. Romello, I’m here today to cancel the engagement between me and Phoebe.”
Romello’s handsome face visibly darkened at Wayne’s words, and he narrowed his eyes.
coldly.
“Cancel the engagement?”
“Yes.” Wayne nodded solemnly, wiping the thin layer of sweat from his forehead.
“I’m the one canceling this engagement, so I’ll issue a public statement informing everyone that it was my fault. You don’t need to return the engagement gifts. Consider it compensation to the Nicholls Group for the losses they may incur due to the cancellation. of our engagement.”
Wayne kept glancing at his watch and immediately stood up after speaking.
“I’ve already made up my mind about this matter, and I’m just here to inform you, Mr. Romello, I have some other matters to attend to, so I’ll be taking my leave now.”
With that, he bowed apologetically to Romello and quickly left the living room.
Chapter 930
As soon as he stepped out, Wayne heard a loud crash from inside before the door even closed behind him.
It was the sound of something being thrown.
He trembled in fear, cold sweat dripping incessantly.
However, he could not worry about that now. The Lawson family was much more terrifying!
With that in mind, Wayne quickened his pace.
Seeing it was almost noon, he immediately informed his company’s PR department to announce the cancelation of his engagement with Phoebe while returning to the car.
In the living room, Romello exploded in a fit of rage.
He had smashed an entire expensive tea set to the ground, shattering it into pieces.
“Sheena! Howard! Elliot!”
They always ruined his plans!
He gritted his teeth, his gaze sharp as a knife, incredibly piercing.
The butler dared not approach, keeping his distance and softly advising, “Sir, the Santos family has given quite a sum as engagement gifts and is willing to take full responsibility for the cancelation of the engagement. The Nicholls Group won’t suffer significant losses. In fact, we’ve gained quite a windfall from the gifts.”
This reasoning made sense, looking at it from a profit perspective.
Romello’s anger subsided somewhat after hearing that.
He stretched out his legs as he sank into the sofa, contemplating the situation.
“If the Santos family wants to cancel the engagement, let them. Since the Nicholls family won’t incur major losses, we’ll let them off. The priority now is resolving Phoebe’s
situation.”

The novel is too abusive it spoils the joy of reading it. I hate the punishment part between sheena and Eliot....
