Wait, She’s a Billionaire (Sheena Lawson) novel Chapter 1231

Peter gasped for air, enduring the unbearable pain coursing through his body.

He glared at Elliot with burning rage, wishing he could murder Elliot.

Elliot met his gaze with chilling indifference, towering over him with a cold demeanor.

After sacrificing so much over the years, facing such punishment in his old age and being condemned and expelled from the family was the ultimate blow for Peter.

Elliot was determined to shatter every ounce of pride he had built within the Jenkins family, making him pay the heaviest price for his past mistakes.

The brutal punishment left everyone present feeling uneasy.

With his mouth sealed shut by Lionel to silence his protests, Peter could only express his anger and accusations through his eyes, silently cursing at Elliot.

As the family meeting concluded, the scent of blood from Peter's punishment lingered heavily in the room, leaving many with pale faces and grim expressions.

Elliot instructed Lionel to escort Peter back to the National Investigation Bureau's holding cell for treatment of his injuries.

With the central figure of the punishment gone, the other family members left quickly, eager to flee the unsettling atmosphere behind.

While the situation could have been handled with just a few respected elders, Elliot had called upon everyone to witness the severity of the punishment as a warning to all.

It was a clear message that anyone who dared to follow in Peter's footsteps and cause trouble would face consequences.

Everyone was no fool, quickly understanding the true purpose of the family meeting.

Clyde and Abraham were terrified, especially since they tried to defend Peter before. They wished they could just teleport and leave the scene immediately.

Yet, just as they reached the doorway of the altar room, they were blocked by the Jenkins family's guards.

"Mr. Clyde, Mr. Abraham, please stay back. Mr. Jenkins has a few words he wants to speak with you privately."

The two men exchanged uneasy glances, too stunned to speak.
