Chapter 13
Sheila excitedly grabbed the coat and demanded, âEllinor, where did you borrow this from? How did yo
Ellinor glanced at the dress nonchalantly, âIs it pricey? A generous man lent it to me. I barely know him
Seeing her clueless look and not appearing to be lying. Sheila scornfully said,
âI bet you wouldn't know a man who can afford such high-
end clothes! Wash it and return it when you're done using it. Don't get into trouble because of greed! A
Ellinor casually laughed, âOh right, sis you didn't answer my question. Where is your boyfriend?â
Sheila's face instantly turned sour, seeing that Ellinor seemed unaware of the details, she faked it with, *
Ellinor raised her eyebrows curiously. âYou donât want to get married? Why? The Blanchet family is
top-notch. Don't you like them?â
Sheila scoffed, âTopâ

Ellinor wanted to laugh, and nodded, âHmm, sis you really thought this through. Congrats on dodging
After packing her stuff, Ellinor went downstairs, said a quick goodbye to Arnold, and then left the Mend
Meanwhile, Sheila sneakily followed
Ellinors taxi in her car. She was curious about who the man that lent Ellinor the coat.
The man who wore such high-end custom clothes must be a billionaire!
Yesterday's chaotic wedding made her lose all her dignity. If she could take this opportunity to find a ric
man, she could finally lift her head in front of her relatives and friends!
Ellinors taxi stopped in the old town.
Ellinor got out of the taxi, walked into a small roadside restaurant with her suitcase, and sat down to or
Sheila sat in her car and shook her head.
She thought Ellinor had stepped up, now that she was able to borrow such expensive branded clothes. I
Just as she was chuckling, there was a knock on her car window
Sheila rolled down the window and saw a sternâfaced traffic cop.
âYou can't park here! You're violating traffic rules.â
Sheila retorted discontentedly. âThere are no other vehicles here, what's the problem with me parking h
cause traffic congestion. This will also alleviate your work pressure, do you understand?â
The traffic cop was unshaken, âNo matter who you are, this is a pedestrian street, no one can park here
continue to not cooperate with the regulations, I will have your car towed. Those are the rules!â
âWould you dare?â
Sheila took off her sunglasses, âLook carefully at who I am! Do you know how many millions of fans I h
The traffic cop barely glanced at her and instantly picked up his walkie-talkie to call for a tow truck.
Sheila stomped her feet in anger and started bickering with the traffic cop like a shrew, attracting a cro
But not many recognized her, everyone was criticizing her for
not following the rules. Sheila was no longer arrogant, and could only watch as her sports car was towe
She remembered the important matter, so she didn't care about her car anymore. She hastily left the cr
Ellinor walked into a large shopping mall in
the old town, and went straight to a luxury brand flagship store. She started choosing clothes boldly.
Sheila, hiding in the dark, couldn't believe her eyes!
There was
definitely something up with Ellinor! Where would she get the money to shop in luxury stores, and spec
expensive clothes?
Seeing that Ellinor had finished choosing clothes and left through another door of the luxury store, She
But she was warmly stopped by the store manager, âMs. Mendoza, the clothes you selected are already
Sheila was bewildered, âYou must be mistaken! I just entered your store!â
The store manager smiled, âArenât you the famous actress Sheila? Your assistant came in earlier. She sel
clothes for you according to your size. We've already packed them for you, you just need to pay now."
Sheila frowned, âWhat do you mean? I came alone, I didn't bring an assistant, and I didn't plan on buyi
Some store clerks whispered...
âDo you think she finds it too expensive and can't afford it?"
âYou see, sheâs wearing outdated styles from a couple of years ago!â
âOther female celebrities are generous when they come to our store, this Sheila looks a bit shabby. I he
Sheila angrily said, âWho said I can't afford it? I just don't like the styles in your store!â
The store manager enthusiastically said, âMs. Mendoza, rest assured, these styles are the latest of the se
âWho said I'm short of money? I've got plenty of it! Here, swipe the card!â
The clerksâ whispers left Sheila no room to back down. She gritted her teeth, swiped her card, and spent

dashed out of the mall, she saw Ellinor hop into another cab.
Sheila quickly hailed a taxi to keep up.
This time, Ellinor headed downtown. She got out, lugging her suitcase into a very swanky residence.
Sheila was gobsmacked. This was prime real estate in the city center. Whoever built a private house hel
big shot?
Just then, a black sedan pulled up and parked in front of the residence.
Veronica was helped out of the car by a few maids. She had just got back from the hospital after an IV
Seeing someone approaching, Sheila walked over and asked, âExcuse me, could you tell me who lives h
Veronica looked at Sheila's outdated outfit with disgust, âWhat do you do? How dare you ask around ot
Sheila was taken aback. In front of Veronica, who was dressed from head to toe in designer clothes, she
Veronica was somewhat impatient, âYour sister? Who's your sister?â
