Chapter 126
Pollock took a seat and started to yammer non–stop about his new film script, hoping to get these four
big shots to invest in his movie.
As for Sheila, she sat adorably next to him, her gaze drifting towards Theo.
The more she looked at this handsome and dignified man, the more her heart fluttered. The more her
heart fluttered, the more she felt a pang of regret.
Not too long ago, she almost married Mr. Blanchet. The Blanchet family even had their wedding
procession at her doorstep, but she missed out, and it turned into a joke.
To this day, the enormous dowry given by the Blanchet family still sat in her house.

Sheila jumped up, startled, and quickly started cleaning the tea off her

“No, no. I’m okay. Sheila, feeling a bit embarrassed over her clumsiness, quickly said. “Ellinor, grab

Sheila was a bit annoyed, she had dressed Ellinor so plainly. How could she still attract male attention?
She was such a natural charmer that it was actually annoying!
Sheila managed to squeeze out a smile and changed the subject. “Why are all of you looking at my

Sheila, his eyes slightly narrowed, “She’s your assistant?”
