Wait, She’s a Billionaire (Sheena Lawson) novel Chapter 971

Chapter 971 

The two bodyguards returned from E&S Haven to the Nicholls residence, one limping while the other supported him

They knocked on Romello’s study door

Come in.” 

The two men entered, visibly struggling 

What’s going on? Where’s Gabrielle?” 

Mr. Romello, Ms. Gabrielle is staying at the Jenkins estate and won’t be coming back.” 

Romello set down his pen, raising an eyebrow. Well, isn’t that convenient? Then why are you two back here?” 

The bodyguards grimaced

Mrs. Jenkins forced us out and had Ford and a few others beat us up, telling us to go 

back to where we came from.” 

Romello threw a teacup at them

The teacup shattered at their feet, the sound echoing with anger as Romello’s frustration 

boiled over

You worthless bunch! Get the hell out of here!” 

His face darkened as he rubbed his temples, feeling a headache coming on 

Phoebe was being monitored closely, and Gabrielle’s naivety caused more harm than 

good

It was a troublesome situation

He opened a drawer and retrieved a colorless, tasteless crystalline substance resembling rock candy

Inhaling deeply, he felt the intense stimulation soothe his nerves, bringing him some relief

A knock interrupted his thoughts

Romello hastily stashed the crystal away and composed himself

Chapter 931 

The door opened, and Frank approached respectfully, handing something over to Romello

Romello glanced at the thing and found it was a rooftop key dirtied with mudthe same key he had given Frank

Where did you find it?Romello asked

In the garden, buried in the soil, hidden under the bushes. Only a tiny bit of gold trim was showing, so it took us all night to find it.” 

Romello picked up the key, his fingers smudged with dirt

The pleasurable sensation from the crystalline substance calmed his nerves, and it was rare for him not to lose his temper immediately

Uncle Frank, tell me your theory.” 

During last night’s banquet, only Mr. Nathaniel came close to me when he accidentally bumped into me. I suspect he deliberately buried the key to avoid suspicion.” 

Romello listened attentively, analyzing the situation methodically

It wasn’t buried intentionally, as Nathaniel wouldn’t leave such obvious traces. If he had buried it, it would have been deeper, perhaps hidden for years without being found
