Chapter 143
Shella lifted her tear–streaked face and said, “Ellinor, I’ve always been good to you! I made you my assistant and even paid you your salary of ten grand in advance. Who else pays their assistant that much? Why are you doing this to me?”
“Sheila, stop crying! Your dad and I know how much you’ve been wronged Ellinor might have been jealous and ruined your career, but she’s still family. Forgive her this one time and let it go Tracy immediately comforted Sheila
Arnold’s heart ached even more, his disappointment and anger towards Ellinor Mendoza growing. “Look at how nice Tracy is to you. She is still trying to get Sheila to forgive you even now! And you?”
Ellinor just smirked
Arnold, broom in hand, was tempted to give her a good beating but seemed to think better of it. He threw the broom aside in frustration and said, “I won’t bother hitting you today Pack your things and get out of this house. Don’t ever come back to Greenhaven! And because of your actions, I’m not giving you your inheritance. It’ll go to Sheila as compensation!”
As soon as Amold finished speaking, Ellinor saw Tracy and Sheila share a cunning smile.
Even without yesterday’s incident where she accidentally burned Theo, those four wealthy heirs still wouldn’t have invested in Pollock’s movie
Sheila must know this, too
They just wanted to use this incident to drive her away and deny her the Mendoza family inheritance, so they wouldn’t have to share the wealth with her. That was Tracy and Sheila’s real goal
Ellinor never cared about the Mendoza family’s wealth; she didn’t want their crumbs.
But she wasn’t about to let Tracy and Sheila have their way!
Since childhood, Tracy and Sheila have never been kind to her. They tarnished her mother’s reputation and spread nasty rumors about her
They even spread rumors that her mother was a homewrecker!
That was unforgivable!
Ellinor thought for a moment, then looked at Arnold, “Dad, if I can make up for Sheila’s loss, can I stay?”
“What? You can make up for the loss?” Arnold was stunned.
Tracy glanced at Ellinor with eyes filled with mockery
Sheila sneered, “Ellinor, you make it sound so easy! How can you make up for my loss? Can you cough up a couple billion to invest in Pollock’s new film?”
“No, I’m broke” Ellinor shook her head.
Sheila goaded her, “Then why are you talking about making up for losses? Do you really think this is a good time to be joking around?”
Arnold frowned
“I may not have the money, but I know someone who does.”
