Chapter 983

“Yes, I understand. Leave it to me,” Lionel reassured.

After returning to the Jenkins estate, they parted ways in the winding alleyways.

Lionel headed back to his own mansion, where Jacintha likely had dinner prepared and waiting for

him.

Elliot returned to E&S Haven, where he had already made a habit of preparing a hot meal before Sheena returned home so they could enjoy it together.

Sheena was busy with matters at the Lawson Group and also helping Howard with Phoebe’s

treatment.

When Sheena returned home more than half an hour later, Elliot had just finished preparing the final dish and served it on the table.

They enjoyed a harmonious and sweet dinner together.

Sheena noticed a shirt casually thrown on the bed and tidied it up, intending to toss it into the laundry basket.

However, the moment she picked up the shirt, she detected a faintly unusual scent.
