Chapter 166
After nailing down the meet–up time and place with Collin, Ellinor hung up and plopped down on a
chair, feeling a bit peckish and fancying a bite to eat.
The hotel where she was supposed to meet Collin was actually picked by Sheila
Later on, Sheila sauntered over, eavesdropping on Ellinor’s phone convo. When she heard that Mr.
Blanchet had accepted the dinner invite, she suggested the hotel meet–up. Ellinor had no objections
and simply relayed the suggestion
Just as Ellinor was about to tuck in, Sheila swooped in and snatched her cutlery.
“On your feet!”
Ellinor frowned, “Sheila, I’ve sorted it out, so I can eat now, right?”
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtSheila gave her a disgusted look, “What have you sorted out? Mr. Blanchet still didn’t show up for this
meal! Sure, you’ve now arranged to meet him tonight, but that doesn’t make up for my loss during this
meal!”
Ellinor glanced at the spread on the table, “But all these dishes you ordered, you can’t possibly finish
them all by yourself, can you?”
Sheila scoffed. “If I can’t finish them, I’ll just take them home, they’re not for you to eat! What gives you
the right to enjoy such pricey dishes at Charm Tower? Do you even know what fine dining is? If
someone like you eats these dishes made from top–quality ingredients, Charm Tower would feel like
you’re bringing down their standards!”
Ellinor smirked, stood up and said. “Alright then, I’ll be on my way”
Sheila’s eyes widened, “Go? Where are you off to?”
“I took the afternoon off today, you approved it, so I’m going home to rest!”
“That was then, this is now, what if I don’t agree anymore! Ellinor, you you wouldn’t dare leave, stop!
Ellinor…”
Watching Ellinor leave, Sheila was furing and about to give chase when her phone rang. It was a call
from her mom, Tracy.
She didn’t have time to deal with Ellinor anymore and picked up the call, “Hello, mom…”
On the other end of the line, Tracy asked urgently, “Sheila, how’s the endorsement deal with Crescent
Society coming along?”
Sheila, looking at Ellinor’s retreating figure, answered her mother, “The deal’s almost done, but we’ve
hit a snag! Come to Charm Tower, I’ve ordered a pile of dishes, too much for me to eat alone!”
“Charm Tower? How did you end up eating alone at such a ritzy place?”
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm“Oh, it’s all Ellinor’s fault! I’ll explain when you get here, just don’t let dad know!”
“Okay, wait for me, I’ll be right there!”
Twenty minutes later, Tracy arrived at Charm Tower.
“Sheila, what the hell happened? Tell me quick!”
Tracy sat down anxiously and started questioning.
Sheila spilled the beans about meeting Theo and what happened after, including the dinner date with
Theo at the hotel….
After listening to everything. Tracy was feeling quite shaken. She looked at her daughter encouragingly.
“Sheila, your dinner date with him at the hotel was the right move! You must seize this opportunity and
win over this young heir from the Blanchet family!”
