Wait, She’s a Billionaire (Sheena Lawson) novel Chapter 973

Chapter 973 

Upon hearing her soothing words, Romello’s eyes reddened, and tears began to well up. 

“Mom, I’m sorry. I want to live, and I don’t want to give up the honor and power I have now. I don’t want to end up in a high–security prison, living like a walking corpse.” 

He held the frail woman in his arms tighter. 

“Don’t worry. It’s because of that illegitimate son’s appearance that your mental health began to deteriorate, leading to Gabrielle’s disappearance. I know how much you hate him. I will make him pay.” 

Marius returned that evening, rubbing his lower back with a mournful expression. 

For the past few days, he had been forced to run errands at the National Investigation Bureau, and his whole body felt like it was falling apart. 

Romello was truly ruthless. 

Marius had never been trained in martial arts and was physically weak. 

It was impossible for him to endure the high–intensity tasks at the National. 

Investigation Bureau. 

He felt like crying every day because of the unbearable torment. It was as if he were in 

hell mode. 

When would this end? 

However, as he remembered Nathaniel’s brutal beating last night, Marius was utterly terrified and suppressed his desire to curse Romello. 

He leaned against the wall, legs trembling, slowly inching into the garden. 

As a manservant hurried past him, Marius stopped him. 

“Where are you rushing off to? Come and help me.” 

The servant hesitated for a moment before approaching, supporting Marius by the arm, 

“I’m sorry, Mr. Marius. Mr. Romello is having the top floor cleared out. Everyone is busy, so they forgot to greet you.” 

“Why is Homello clearing out the top floor?” 

The servant shook his head and answered, “We don’t know. It’s already past six, and he wants everything cleared out by tonight, or do we’ll all be in trouble. 

Marius felt puzzled, but he was understanding 

“Go about your business. No need to assist me. I can manage on my own.” 

“Thank you for understanding, Mr. Marius” 

The manservant bowed and hurried off to the backyard. 

Marius watched his retreating figure, his suspicion deepening 

Romello had suspected Nathaniel of stealing from the top floor last night, and now he wanted everything on the top floor cleared out. 

What was Romello up to? 

Marius’s intuition told him there was definitely a secret going on. 

He shuffled his steps slowly toward the backyard. 

As he drew closer, the sound of shattering glass echoed. 

Marius noticed many servants and bodyguards were in the backyard, including Frank. They were all busy with their tasks, paying no attention to him. 

Some were burning, some were smashing glass containers, and others were digging holes to bury something. 

Marius looked at the hustle and bustle with a perplexed expression. 

In a corner lay containers that had not been completely destroyed yet, small glass vials with a little transparent liquid remaining at the bottom. 

He casually picked up one of the glass vials and examined it.
