Wait, She’s a Billionaire (Sheena Lawson) novel Chapter 1177

In the evening, Sheena drove back to E&S Haven by herself.

Since Elliot was not at the National Investigation Bureau and seemed to have returned to the Jenkins estate, she did not want to bother him to come out and pick her up.

Upon returning home, Sheena wandered into the garden and noticed that only the study was lit in the entire mansion.

Without hesitation, she headed straight for the study.

The study door was ajar, and Elliot was seated behind his desk, his gaze fixed on something. However, his eyes seemed distant, lost in thought.

His expression was grave, indicating that something was amiss.

Curious, Sheena quietly entered the study and approached him from behind his chair.

Elliot did not even notice her arrival, completely preoccupied.

"Honey, what's wrong? Did something happen?"

Sheena gently squeezed his broad shoulders as she massaged his neck.

Hearing her familiar voice and feeling her touch, Elliot finally snapped out of his trance.

He took Sheena's hands and kissed them, truthfully explaining, "Peter has hidden Stanley. When I confronted him, he claimed to know the true reason behind my parents' death and used it to blackmail me into letting Stanley go."

Sheena frowned.

"Does he really know? And if your parents truly had an accident, isn't it better to ask Grandpa directly about it?"

Elliot sighed.

This was where it got tricky.

When he questioned Santiago just now, Santiago denied any hidden truth, sticking to the same story he had told Elliot since childhood.

In fact, Santiago became angry at Elliot's persistent inquiries, threatening to make him kneel in the altar room for disturbing him with the past.

Santiago's reaction was too intense, hinting that perhaps there was indeed more to the story, just as Peter claimed.

Elliot pondered the situation and decided to share every detail with Sheena, trusting her unconditionally.

Listening attentively, Sheena nodded in understanding.
