Wait, She’s a Billionaire (Sheena Lawson) novel Chapter 1296

Elliot fidgeted with his wristwatch and glanced at the time.

He asked, "Since you've looked into it, who do you think is the mastermind behind this?"

"You want my opinion?" Lance pointed to himself, feeling a bit uneasy being back by Elliot's side for official business after a long time.

Elliot's expression darkened. "It's just you and me in the elevator. Who else would I be talking to?"

Feeling irritated, he mocked, "Did you lose some brain cells after getting married and returning from vacation? Did spending too much sweet time with your wife melt your brain?"

Lance was at a loss for words, sulking slightly after being criticized.

Nonetheless, Elliot was his superior, and Lance feared him the most. Hence, he dared not say anything and silently listened to the instructions.

Once they reached the hospital's underground parking lot and got into the car, Lance finally began to share his thoughts.

"Mr. Jenkins, food safety regulations are strict. It's impossible for unlicensed producers to manufacture toxic baby formula."

Elliot sat in the back seat of the luxury car, weighing Lance's opinion.

He asked, "So, you suspect it's sourced from the black market?"

Lance nodded, then shook his head. "Not exactly 'sourced', more like produced by a major player in the black market. Mr. Asher and Ms. Adora need a large amount of formula every month. You always have Happiness Inc. deliver a whole batch for stockpiling. If the quality inspection results show that other affluent families have identical formula cans, it's likely that a significant number of these cans are produced by the black market. The mastermind behind it is probably a major player in the black market. But I still can't figure out why they're doing this and targeting only the rich. Could it be some kind of class warfare?"

Elliot remained silent for a while, staring out the window at the scenery passing by.

His gaze was cold as if recalling some unpleasant memories.

"If it's indeed class warfare, the nature of the case isn't too complicated. But if it's solely targeting the Jenkins family, this matter might be more complex than we think."

Lance sighed but said nothing, focusing on driving.

…

Elliot also increased undercover guards at the hospital, but they had not arrived yet.

Asher was crying loudly from hunger, awakening Sheena.

Sheena glanced at the nurse's uniform but quickly refocused on feeding the baby.

"I didn't ring for assistance. What's the matter?"

"Ms. Lawson, it's time for the baby's medication."

Sheena raised an eyebrow. "For his heart condition?"

The nurse nodded. "Yes."

Sheena frowned and responded, "Yesterday, the attending doctor mentioned that the gentle medicine was out of stock, and we needed to wait two days to assess the baby's condition before deciding."

"That's correct," the nurse admitted. "But today, the medication has been delivered from the pharmaceutical regulatory agency from overseas. Your baby is a VIP patient at this hospital, and we can't take any chances, so we brought it to you immediately."

Sheena thought for a moment, observing the petite nurse with suspicion.

Without revealing her doubts, she agreed, "Let me have a look at the medicine."
