Chapter 1778 Realizing the gravity of the situation, Tracy sprung into action. âSheila, darling, Iâm on my way home! Until I get there, you mustnât let your father see those two women, understood?â Sheila nodded firmly. âMom, donât worry. Iâve got this.â After ending the call with her mother, Sheila called her father. Arnold was out fishing. He finally got a nibble when his phone buzzed and scared the fish away.
He answered, but was clearly irritated. âWhat the hell do you want? You scared the fish away!â Sheila was jobless and reliant on her fatherâs support. She had lost her previous standing and was more deferential. âDad, Iâm just checking in on you. When will you be home?â Arnold grumbled. âI was planning to fish a little longer, but your call ruined my mood, so Iâm heading back now. Tell your mom Iâm hungry; I want some pot roast.â After hearing that her father was coming home, Sheila panicked.
âUh.., Dad, the weather is so nice; why donât you fish a little longer? Mom is out, and she hasnât come back yet. Thereâs no one to make the pot roast.â She couldnât let her father come home now. Heâd run into those two women. Arnold scoffed. âWhatâs that woman off doing now? Canât you cook? All you do is sit at home and live off of me. Canât you at least learn to cook?! What am I raising you for?!âSheila felt wronged. âDad, you know I canât cook. The grease in the kitchen is bad for my skin. It could affect my on-camera image.â âOn-camera?â Arnold laughed sarcastically. âAnd whoâs hiring you? Do you still think youâre a big star? All day long, you just care about your face, but whatâs the point? If you donât find a job this month, you and your mother can pack your bags. The Mendoza family doesnât support freeloaders!â Books Chapters Are Daily Updated Join & Stay Updated For All Books Updatesâ¦
-Sheila panicked, fearing her father would really kick her and her mother out. Although Arnold wasnât a tycoon, he had inherited a fair amount of property. Just the rent alone would keep her and her mother comfortable. Once her father passed away, she would naturally inherit everything. She couldnât bear to leave the Mendoza family. âDad! How can you talk to me like that?! Itâs not like I donât want to find a job.
Havenât I been going to auditions every day? Itâs not easy to land a role. It takes time! I believe that one day a director will appreciate me.â Arnold was even more dismissive. âIâm trying to wake you up from your dream of acting! Do you really think any production team would want you?! Donât forget that you offended Ellinor. Now sheâs Mrs. Blanchet. You know the status of the Blanchet family, right? You offended her, so she just needs to say the word, and no one will even attempt to hire you! Wake up, find a regular job, and face reality!â After hearing her father mention the past, Sheilaâs entire body was instantly filled with a blazing fury. She still thought Ellinor had taken her place. It was clear that Mr.
Blanchet intended to choose her. That damn Ellinor! Not only had she taken her place, she also used the power of the Blanchet family to suppress and blacklist her. Sheila wanted Ellinor to die; she wished for it with every fiber of her being!
