Chapter 938
Meanwhile, in the National Investigation Bureau’s office, Romello’s body was nearing its limit.
After over five hundred push–ups and no chance to rest, he had gone straight into over two hours of squats.
Moreover, there was no room for slacking off. Even a momentary lapse in concentration could result in the books on his legs and arms falling.
Under this intense and grueling punishment, Romello had no time to think about anything else, his only focus being to endure this hellish and painful experience as quickly as possible.
A series of ringing came from the timer.
Romello took a deep breath and smiled in relief.
Who would have thought that one day he would find the sound of the timer so delightful, surpassing all the melodic tunes in the world?
“Mr. Jenkins, time’s up.”
Elliot casually handled the paperwork with a red pen and grunted in acknowledgment.
“Put the books back.”
“Thank you, Mr. Jenkins.”
Granted pardon, Romello felt as if he had been given a second chance at life.
It had been many years since he endured such devilish training, and his body was certainly not as resilient as before.
He neatly returned the books to their shelves, ensuring each was placed back in its proper
order.
With everything done, he walked back to the open space in front of his desk, slightly bowing to Elliot, ready to leave.
“Hold on.” Elliot looked up and glanced at Romello. “Did I tell you to leave?”
Romello was taken aback.
It was not over yet?
Chater Exa
Even though he felt like pulling out a gun and shooting Elliot right then and there out of sheer frustration, he could only reluctantly return and stand in position.
“Yes, Mr. Jenkins?”
Elliot first set down the pen in his hand and leisurely poured a glass of iced tea for him.
“No rush. Take a sip of water first.”
He glanced at Elliot suspiciously.
Elliot remained expressionless, his gaze icy as he interrupted, “Of course, you’ll have to compensate. But it seems you don’t appreciate the tea I’ve poured for you.”

The readers' comments on the novel: Wait, She’s a Billionaire (Sheena Lawson)
The novel is too abusive it spoils the joy of reading it. I hate the punishment part between sheena and Eliot....
