Elliot looked up and met her gaze.
Gabrielle immediately felt guilty and looked away, too afraid to look again.

Gabrielle glanced between the two of them, feeling hesitant to speak.
After contemplating momentarily, she cautiously said, “I just feel like Mr. Jenkins resembles someone. He remindsof someone I've seen before.” Sheena and Elliot exchanged a glance.
“Who?” Gabrielle adjusted her posture, leaning closer to Sheena as she whispered, “Sheena, don’t you think Mr. Jenkins looks a lot like your male servant back in Farlem?” Even though Gabrielle whispered, Elliot could hear her well in the quiet dining room.
He nearly choked on his food.
Sheena could not help but chuckle at his reaction.
The incidents from Farlem were like a dark chapter in Elliot's past.
Feeling mischievous, Sheena decided to tease him a bit and turned the question back to Gabrielle.
Chapter 974 “So, Gabrielle, who do you think is more handsome, Mr. Jenkins or the manservant?” Despite her innocence, Gabrielle had a sharp eye.
“Well, there's no contest. It’s definitely Mr. Jenkins! After all, he’s your lawful husband, Sheena, and no one can beat Mr. Jenkins regarding power, status, appearance, and wealth!” Sheena could not help but smile at Gabrielle's flattery, glancing at Elliot to see hist reaction.

Do you have a crush on him?” Gabrielle blushed and replied, “Although we had a few disagreements back then, | still quite liked his looks and physique. If you don’t want him, Sheena, I'd like to hire him privately. Even if he’s just around, it would be quite a sight to behold every day.” She continued, lost in thought, “But | remember he was quite headstrong, still in need of straining.” Elliot set down his utensils heavily, his handsface darkening considerably.

Gabrielle watched Elliot's icy departure, unsure of where she went wrong.
Sheena smiled, continuing to eat.
She enthusiastically agreed with Gabrielle’s assessment, “Yes; he did have a strong personality, but I've already trained him. Now, he’s only soft toward me.” “Huh?” Gabrielle's nosiness was ignited instantly.
She whispered, “You still keep that manservant around? From what you're saying, it sounds like you're quite fond of him. Is he your secret lover? Does Mr. Jenkins know?” Sheena remained calm as she continued to eat her food.
Chapter 974 3/3 “He knows.” Gabrielle's imagination began to run wild, saying, “The rumors outside say that Mr. Jenkins dotes on you so much, and he listens to you fully. He actually agrees to you. keeping a secret lover?” “Who said he’s a secret lover? The smanservant from before is no longer working for me, and we're officially together.” “Officially together?” “Yes, he’s my husband.” Gabrielle realized belatedly, her eyes widening in shock.
Oh no, the person she offended back in Farlem was actually Elliot!
