Elliot would not do anything to force Sheena unless she volunteered. Besides, Sheena was the one who was full of energy last night!
Elliot had been brutally beaten, and now his back and waist still ached faintly.
Nonetheless, he was not one to suffer alone and dragged Lionel down with him.
Elliot glared at Lionel, saying, “For that sentence just now, you’ll be deducted one month’s salary for each word you said. Calculate it yourself.”
As Lionel heard the disastrous news, he gasped. He had spoken so much just now, so his entire year’s salary might be in vain!
Elliot was simply too heartless and unreasonable.
Lionel stood there in shock, immersed in sorrow.
Elliot smirked as he walked away. Despite the pain in his waist and the stiffness in his neck, he moved with brisk steps, looking lively as if he were in a good mood.
Lionel caught up, wailing, “Mr. Jenkins, I’m sorry for what I’ve said! Give me a chance to make
amends!”
It had been a long time since Sheena had slept so soundly. She slept until 9.30 a.m., only to be awakened by the ringing phone.
“Sweetheart, I’ve talked to her about last night’s incident. It won’t happen again in the future. Can you return to the mansion tonight? The day after tomorrow is your banquet, and you need to prepare…
H
Albert’s coughing abruptly interrupted his sentence.
Still groggy from sleep, Sheena thought for a moment before replying, “Okay.”
“Then, after
“Sure.”
you finish your
work today, remember to return early to try on your gown. Alright?”
After hanging up the phone, Sheena turned over, intending to continue sleeping. However, she gradually regained her awareness.
She did not go back to Lawson Estate last night, and she went to Hedone Bar for a drink. Yet, why was
she now in bed?
Sheena sat up suddenly, looking around in confusion. Beside the bedside table, the floor was scattered with broken pieces of porcelain. Feeling bewildered, she quickly called John and Sawyer.
After Elliot left, the two men stood guard at the door and quickly entered when Sheena called.

Sheena, still a bit hazy from last night’s drinking, could not recall much of what had happened and asked, “Who brought me to the hotel last night?”
“It was Mr. Jenkins. He took care of you all night,” one of them replied.
Sheena furrowed her brow.
Checking herself and finding everything untouched, she breathed a sigh of relief. Fortunately, Elliot had not done anything to her. Otherwise, she might have marched straight to the Jenkins mansion
with a knife.
However, if nothing had happened last night, what about the scattered broken pieces of porcelain on
the floor?
She did not remember having any disputes with Elliot. She just recalled dreaming sweetly about Elijah and even kissing and hugging him in the dream…
John and Sawyer were equally clueless. To get the specifics, they would need to ask Elliot himself.
Sheena instructed, “John, go to the Jenkins mansion and find Elliot. Tell him I want to talk to him in
person.”
“Yes, Miss.” John quickly moved into action.
“Sawyer, find the hotel manager. I’ll compensate them for the broken vase.”
“Alright.”
Sawyer turned to open the door, and coincidentally, the hotel manager and a waiter with a food cart were about to knock.
Upon hearing about compensation, the manager smiled pleasingly, “Ms. Lawson, don’t worry about it. Mr. Jenkins has already settled the bill for the vase.”
Not only had he paid for it, but he also paid ten times the amount. He suggested not placing any decorations on the bedside tables in all hotel rooms except tissue boxes. Thinking about these details, the manager’s smile became even more radiant. He stepped aside, showcasing the customized delicacies on the food cart.
“And that’s not all. Mr. Jenkins specifically ordered breakfast for you, all freshly made by our chefs. Would you
like to give it a try, Ms. Lawson?”
The waiter placed the entire breakfast spread on the small table in the suite.
