Chapter 687
His obsidian eyes shimmered with a subtle glow, capturing the shocked or frightened
expressions of everyone. Soon, a faint smirk played on his thin lips.
“When did I ever admit that I was blind?”
“H–How is this possible? Your eyes are fine?”
Peter’s wrinkled face showed a mix of astonishment and confusion. However, he quickly
caught on.
“Did you purposely set this up?”
Elliot neither confirmed nor denied. With an indifferent tone, he said, “Thanks to you,
Uncle Peter, I’ve managed to clear out a bunch of disloyal people in one go.”
Unwilling to accept this, Peter protested, “If your eyes are fine, then all these recent
events are just misunderstandings. It’s not like we committed any major wrongdoing. Who
are you to punish everyone here?”
“Spreading rumors of my blindness, deliberately causing trouble at E&S Haven, abusing
public office for personal gain, and some even have a messy personal life. Uncle Peter, do
you want me to list them all here?”

Did you really think I’m unaware of those shady things you’ve been up to?”
In the conference hall, many averted their gaze, afraid to speak.
Logan added angrily, “Where there’s smoke, there’s fire! In the past, Mr. Jenkins tolerated
your misdeeds, and you really thought you were invincible? Those of you with some sense,
take your punishment notices and leave!”
Now cornered, Peter felt humiliated and had nothing more to say.
He had fallen for Romello’s words, and Elliot had outplayed him!
“Elliot, until next time!” Peter snorted and walked away.
Unexpectedly, Elliot reminded him, “Uncle Peter, you’re being reassigned to Monteal City
for five years. Take care of yourself if you want to meet again.”
Peter, infuriated by it all, shot him a glare and left.
With Peter gone, the elders of the Jenkins family and the directors of the Jenkins Group,
left without a leader, also left dejectedly.
In a matter of minutes, half the people in the conference hall disappeared.

Elliot turned to Romello, who had remained silent.
“You haven’t voiced your view. Do you think the punishment is too lenient, and you’re
dissatisfied?”
Romello chuckled lightly.
Peter might not know about the virus in Elliot’s body, but he knew.
When Romello rescued Nathaniel from Elliot’s grasp, Nathaniel personally told him about
the condition in exchange for the rescue.
“Mr. Jenkins, do you really think a desperate move can conceal your true condition?”
Elliot raised an eyebrow lightly. “Even I am not aware of my own condition. Care to share
your insights?”
Romello was about to speak but hesitated, suddenly realizing this was another trap set by
Elliot.
The records of Nathaniel’s misconduct stated that he stole the highly corrosive S40
experimental substance. If Romello spoke the truth, indicating he knew the truth,
Nathaniel’s wrongdoing would implicate him.
Elliot believed that even if Romello knew the truth, he could not disclose it.

Elliot, and turning to leave.
“Hold on.” Elliot signaled to Lance. “Since you’re suspicious of my health, I should clarify
for you to avoid future unnecessary troubles.”
Lance promptly handed Romello a set of thirteen examination reports from hospitals, all
confirming Elliot’s good health.
Romello glanced at them, understanding that Noah had helped Elliot with these
certificates.
It was hard for him to swallow this pride.
He chuckled lightly, replying, “Mr. Jenkins, you excel in both bureaucracy and business. I
truly admire that! Unfortunately, when it comes to love, it seems you’re destined to be a
lonely man.”
Elliot frowned, and his face instantly turned cold.
Romello feigned surprise. “Oh, it seems you’re unaware. Your fiancee, Ms. Lawson, and
Nathaniel announced that they’re having their wedding ceremony at Florence Cathedral in
Laubabwe in a few days. It’s already making headlines
