However, the interruption completely disrupted Grant's train of thought.
He gestured for Sheena to indicate that he would escort her to the door.
Sheena remained unmoved, unwilling to let the matter rest, and stared intently at him.
Grant felt uneasy under her gaze and explained in a hushed voice, "Mrs. Jenkins, please don't pressure me. Give me some time."
With nothing more to say at this point, Sheena had to relent and leave Santiago's mansion.
She drove to the Lawson Group for work, pondering the situation all the way.
Santiago and Peter gave conflicting truths.
If Roger were not in Svelton, finding him would require some effort, assuming he was intentionally hiding.
Moreover, Grant seemed to know all the details but seemed hesitant to speak, possibly under Santiago's orders.
Regardless of where they started, the situation was becoming increasingly complicated.
Not only that, but Sheena suspected that many more individuals were involved.
Elliot's parents were originally the heirs apparent to the Jenkins Group, yet they met their death in a sudden car accident.
She could not shake the feeling that a larger conspiracy might be at play within the Jenkins family.
Sheena spent the entire day preoccupied with these thoughts, unable to focus on her work.
Fortunately, no significant contracts were awaiting signature at the Lawson Group in these few days, so she delegated her tasks to her assistant.
Before lunch, she went to the National Investigation Bureau to accompany Elliot.
…
Meanwhile, Elliot had already initiated a private investigation into Roger's whereabouts and, upon locating him, dispatched his team to bring him in for questioning.
At the same time, Lionel continued their evidence investigation.
