Chapter 182
Elinor slowly pulled a tissue from the box on the table, wiping her hands. “Shouldn’t you two be getting a taste of your own medicine for your actions?”
If it weren’t for their dirty tricks, she wouldn’t have ended up in such a mess last night!
Tracy, grinding her teeth in anger, glared at Elinor, who was behaving differently than usual. “Elinor, I’ve known for a long time that your angel face in front of your dad is just a sham! Now that your dad’s not home, you’ve dropped the act, haven’t you?”
Elinor gave a faint smile “Auntie Tracy, we’re no different! Your sweet act in front of my dad is also a sham, isn’t it? Do I need to list all the things you’ve done behind his back?”
Speechless, Tracy cursed in fury “How dare you, an orphan, compare yourself to me?”
Of course, Sheila took her mother’s side and joined in “Elinor, my mom is right, you’re nothing but an orphan! Today, I’ll teach you a lesson on behalf of your shameless mother!”
As she cursed, she lunged at Elinor, her hand raised to strike.
Elinor didn’t dodge, instead grabbing her wrist firmly ‘I don’t need your teaching! Tell me, how did you manage to get the contract resources from the Blanchet Corporation? Dare to spill the beans?”
Stunned, Sheila tried to pull her hand back but couldn’t. She cast a proud glance at Elinor, impatiently replying, “Of course, it’s because I’m talented and caught the eye of the management at the Blanchet Corporation!”
Elinor let go of her hand, smiling lightly. “I see. Or should I say it’s because your supporter is quite powerful? By the way, does our dad know you refer to your supporter as “dad?”
Regaining her footing, Sheila glared at Elinor, snorting with contempt. “So what if I do? It’s all for the sake of a better job and to bring honor to our family! Besides, he and I are just friends! Even if our dad knows, I’m not afraid!”
She really wasn’t afraid, otherwise, she wouldn’t have flaunted her newly acknowledged “dad“, the famous director, in front of Elinor!
Elinor nodded “Well, I believe you two are just friends! But the relationship between him and Auntie Tracy. I doubt it’s that simple.Tight?”
Caught off guard, Sheila hadn’t expected Elinor to know about this. She quickly turned to look at her mother, Tracy
Tracy remained calm. “Elinor, what are you trying to say? It’s perfectly normal for Sheila to be treated like a daughter by a senior colleague! What does it have to do with
me?”
Elinor looked at Tracy “From what I know, Pollock had a girlfriend before he became famous. They lived together for several years, and that girlfriend’s name was Tracy! Tracy, is it a coincidence that you share the same name as his ex–girlfriend?”
Tracy’s face immediately changed. ‘How how did you find out?”
Elinor continued “Tracy, you’re really charming. Even after so many years, your ex–boyfriend still wants to help your daughter and even treats her as his own! Could it be that my sister is actually Pollock’s biological daughter?”
Pointing at Elinor, Tracy snapped, “Elinor, stop spouting nonsense! What do you know? Do you have any proof?”
Elinor shrugged, “I don’t have any proof indeed”
Tracy knew Elinor couldn’t possibly have any evidence.
So she crossed her arms over her chest, looking fearless. “Since you have no evidence, I’m going to sue you for slander if you keep this up!”
Elinor sighed, “I guess I’ll just have to tell my dad and let him investigate it himself.
