Chapter 958
Nathaniel was confident that Romello would search him and the room after the banquet ended…
He turned off the lights and concealed himself in the darkness, quietly tossing the key from the window.
The key landed perfectly in the bush, unnoticed by most.
Someone walked by and accidentally stepped on the key into the soil, leaving only half of the golden edge exposed, and the rest was covered entirely by the lawn.
At 10.30 p.m., the entire banquet came to an end, and guests began to leave one by one.
Sheena and Elliot also left the Nicholls residence with the other guests.
“Honey, take a look at this.”
It was not until their luxury car was far away from the Nicholls residence that Sheena took out two items from her purse.
One was a small, thumb–sized vial of transparent liquid, and the other was a small paper bag of powdered medicine.
Elliot examined the liquid with a serious expression.
“We shouldn’t delay. Let’s take this liquid to the lab for Yosef to analyze tonight.”
Sheena nodded and then handed him the bag of powder, saying, “Take a look at this too.”
“What is this?”
“It’s the poison Romello instructed Nathaniel to use on you tonight.”
‘Do you know what kind of poison it is?”
Sheena shook her head as she replied, “We were short on time, and he didn’t have a chance to say. Once the mysterious liquid is confirmed to be a harmful substance, and coupled with this powdered medicine, we’ll have enough evidence to prove Romello’s crimes.”
With a serious expression, Elliot continued, “He gave you the powder, but Romello won’t let him off easily once he finds out he failed.”

“Don’t worry, he did add something to the wine right in front of Romello.”
“What did he add?” Elliot asked curiously.
Sheena chuckled and tapped his forehead, teasing, “What happened? Is your sense of taste that bad? He added a bit of table salt. Didn’t you taste it?”
Elliot was left speechless.
He had indeed not realized it…
Sheena gently caressed the bag of powder and added, “I believe this will all be over soon.”
Elliot pulled her into an embrace and kissed her forehead.
Half an hour later, Yosef, who had just fallen asleep, was urgently summoned to the lab to work overnight.
“Elliot, without knowing the name of the substance, we can only slowly analyze its components and match them in the database for similarity. This work takes time, and it may not be until tomorrow afternoon before we have results. How about going home first? There’s no need to wait for the night.”
Since Yosef suggested it, Elliot did not hesitate to take his advice. He grabbed Sheena’s hand and left the lab, heading home to get some sleep.
At midnight, the lights were still on at the Nicholls residence, and the servants and bodyguards were on edge.
In the altar room, the sound of the spanking echoed through the dark night, sending shivers down everyone’s spine.
Marius and Gabrielle stood nervously by the pillars of the altar room, trembling with fear.

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....
