Chapter 598
Romello withdrew his hand, offering a friendly smile, seemingly unfazed.
“It’s been quite a while since I last saw Mr. Jenkins, and he hasn’t returned to the National
Investigation Bureau either, I wonder how he’s been lately?”
Sheena slightly squinted, scrutinizing the subtle probing undertones in his words.
Both Lionel and Logan were Elliot’s colleagues at the National Investigation Bureau, and they were aware of his health condition.
Did Romello genuinely have no knowledge of it?
In a casual tone, Sheena replied, “Of course he’s fine. He’s always been healthy, not one to fall ill, unlike me.”
“Well, Ms. Lawson, take care of yourself, and please send my regards to Mr. Jenkins.”
After some small talk, Nicole, who had been tearful before, interrupted.
“Romello, Katie is young. She made mistakes due to her lack of understanding, and she was even diagnosed with a mental disorder before. You must help her!”
Romello reassured her with a smile, “Auntie Nicole, rest assured, the National Investigation Bureau never falsely accuses anyone. She won’t be mistreated during the investigation.”
With nothing more to discuss, Sheena turned to leave.
Colin suddenly emerged from the mansion. Due to the injuries inflicted by Lionel, he could only lean
on the door frame and call out to her from a distance.
“Sheena! Are you really teaming up with Elliot against the Upton family? Can’t you spare Katie, given our past acquaintance?”
All eyes in the garden turned toward Sheena.
Without looking back, she responded with a hint of coldness, “Colin, the consequences she’s about to face are what she deserves. You can blame it on your Upton family for spoiling and tolerating her
atrocities since childhood.”
She took a couple of steps, seemed to recall something, and turned to Romello, saying, “If Katie indeed has a mental disorder, she should be sent to a psychiatric hospital for treatment and not allowed to use it as an excuse to evade responsibility. What do you think, Mr. Romello?”
Romello chuckled. “Certainly.”
Nicole, emotionally overwhelmed, muttered, “My poor daughter…”
She almost stumbled but was steadied by Ron’s support..
Sheena could not be bothered with the Upton family’s theatrics and left. Just as she got into her car,

ready to return home, her phone rang
It was Yosef calling

“Ms. Lawson, after repeated tests, the blue serum is safe. It will significantly alleviate Elliot’s symptoms of the virus induced degenerative conditions and angina, possibly leading to symptom reduction or disappearance.
Sheena was overjoyed.
“Great! I’ll come over shortly.”
After ending the call, she first returned to E&S Haven.
Still in his thick robe, Elliot lazily sat on the couch reading a book.
Upon her return, Sheena gleefully cupped his face and showered him with kisses.
nout.”
“Eli, change your clothes quickly. We’re going out.”
“Where are we going?”
Sheena grinned mysteriously. “You’ll find out when we get there!”
Seeing her excitement, Elliot did not press for details. He immediately went upstairs to change, allowing her to lead him out by the hand.
Together, they arrived at the laboratory.
Observing the blue liquid in Yosef’s syringe, Elliot’s expression turned serious.
“Is this what you traded with Nathaniel for?”
Sheena nodded, gently caressing his face. Her tone was cheerful as she replied, “Yosef has conducted multiple tests, and the serum is safe. Injecting it will help you recover,
Eli!”
Lionel chimed in happily, “Time to bid farewell to degenerative conditions!”
Despite the lively atmosphere in the lab, Elliot kept his eyes fixed on the blue serum.
His tone was resolute as he said, “I won’t take it, Yosef. Take it away.
