Killian was slightly stunned, asking in disbelief, "You really see me as a tool?"

Seeing that his expression was off, Sheila knew he had misunderstood, and quickly explained, "No, how could I dare to see you as a tool."

"He's been pestering me lately, and I was really forced into a corner before I came up with this idea to make him completely give up."

Killian stared at her, thinking for a few seconds, "To make him completely give up?"

Sheila leaned forward slightly, her head close as she whisp

    Olivia's tone suddenly became casual again: "It's nothing. She seems to be a very famous ballerina. I saw her on TV. Your mom used to be a fan too."So that's it. No wonder she was so shocked that she dropped her cup. She must have been too excited to see her idol.But when did she ever like ballet dancers?"Mom, aren't your idols Andy Lau anymore? I've never seen you watch a ballet performance."Olivia: "Hey, your mom used to love watching ballet performances. We had video tapes at home, but later there were too many trivial things in life, so I stopped watching.""Oh." Sheila didn't suspect anything.Olivia asked again: "Is she doing well now? I haven't seen her on TV for a long time.""She's doing great." Sheila talked about Alison's recent situation, "Don't worry, your idol is doing well."Olivia seemed to breathe a sigh of relief: "Oh, she also has a son, and her husband treats her well. Then she shouldn't have any regrets in life."Sheila: "Uh, she probably still has some regret

    "Mom, what's wrong?"The three of them turned towards the screen, puzzled by her tone. Olivia forced a strained smile. "Oh dear, I was being careless. Sheila, I'll chat with your mother-in-law another time.""Okay, mother-in-law, no worries.""Goodbye.""Goodbye, Mom."The call ended. Sheila felt her mother was acting strange, like she'd seen something that scared her.But what could it be? Sheila looked at Alison. "Mrs. Cole, do you know my mother?"Alison looked bewildered. "No, I don't. Why?""Oh, it's nothing."Sheila chuckled, thinking she was overthinking it.Alison was a high-society lady, a famous ballerina who'd lived in France for years. Her mother was just an ordinary woman. How could they possibly know each other?Sheila chatted with Nicole for a while longer. Then, she saw Sebastian and Killian enter from outside, and she remembered the male lead for the new project."Mom, Mrs. Cole, you guys chat. I just remembered something at work that I need to discuss with Mr. Cole."

    How did it become her who was unwilling?Wasn't he the one who wanted to keep things private all along?It wasn't until the car behind them honked impatiently that Killian restarted the engine.Sheila finally spoke, her voice hesitant, "So, our marriage agreement is really void?""Yeah, void," Killian confirmed. "Didn't we agree on that?""But I don't think there's a need to go out of our way to announce it, right?" Sheila argued. "After all, I'm working at Orange Entertainment now, which is still a subsidiary of Ford's Corporation. If we go public, people will think I'm just a trophy wife even more."Before, when it was just a marriage of convenience, there was no need to reveal anything. But now that they were aiming for a lifetime together, it was different.It seemed a bit pretentious, but she genuinely wanted to achieve something, to have her own career.Of course, no matter how hard she worked, she could never catch up to Killian.But at least one day she could confidently tell

    "I can try," Sheila said modestly.Derek heard this, wearing an expression that said, "Just as I expected." "Since it's just a try, let's think of a backup plan."The meeting lasted for more than two hours.After it ended, Kane suggested taking everyone out for dinner to continue discussing the remaining details.Sheila tidied up her desk, ready to leave, but Kane blocked her path. "Miss Emerson, aren't you coming to dinner later?"Sheila coldly refused, "I can't, I have plans."At this moment, Director Lee came over and said, "Miss Emerson, why aren't you going? This is the crew's first gathering. Without you, we don't know how long this project would be shelved."Others also enthusiastically invited her.Sheila hesitated, then said, "I have a date.""A date? With Mr. Ford?" Derek smiled meaningfully. "Accompanying Mr. Ford is indeed more important."Sheila felt that Derek seemed to have a prejudice against her, but she couldn't refute it, because she was indeed going to meet Killian

    Sheila had already devised a foolproof plan. "Delete those photos, and all the dirt. As long as you delete them, I'll delete the evidence on my end too."Augustine: "What if I delete them and you don't? Do you think I'm an idiot?""Do you think everyone's as despicable as you?" Sheila scoffed. "No trust at all, and you want to make a deal?"Augustine pondered for a moment, then unlocked his phone. "It's all in the cloud drive. I'll delete it.""Saying you've deleted it isn't enough. How do I know if you have other backups?" Sheila retrieved a prepared confidentiality agreement from her suit pocket and pushed it toward Augustine."This is a mutual deletion agreement with clear third-party notarization clauses. We'll destroy all the materials simultaneously under the supervision of a notary, with the entire process recorded." She tapped the last page of the agreement with her finger. "If Party B (Augustine) damages Party A's (Catherine) reputation or interests in any way in the future,

    "Got it," Sheila's nonchalant reply instantly stalled Abby.A sharp inhale echoed from the other end of the phone. "Don't tell me you're backing out?""No," Sheila reassured her. "What they said wasn't wrong. Catherine was indeed lured away by me. She's about to return to Orange Entertainment soon."Abby was stunned. Before she could ask anything, Sheila hung up.Then, Sheila contacted Augustine. "Aren't you looking for Catherine? Come on, meet me at the usual place."After sending the message, Sheila realized the car had turned onto the road leading to Rosewood Garden.She raised an eyebrow. "Uncle Jerry, have you forgotten that I live in Orange Entertainment's dorm?"Killian, who had been resting with his eyes closed, suddenly opened them. His gaze darkened slightly. "You still want to live in the dorm?"Sheila argued logically, "The dorm is closer to Orange Entertainment, which is much more convenient. I can sleep at least twenty more minutes in the morning."Jerry glanced at the r

    Midday. Sheila and Killian were having lunch at the hotel restaurant.Sheila's mind was still replaying the incredibly ahem explicit scenes from the morning, and the suggestive whispers in her ear.Over a year of marriage on paper, they'd been intimate countless times. Sometimes he

    Carl didn't take the bait. "Don't give me that crap. Just tell me what you want."Killian spoke slowly, "Return all the money you and Augustine scammed from Catherine over the years."Carl, looking like a man who'd already hit rock bottom, replied, "Sorry, I already spent it all."

    “Damn, playing hard to get, so clever!”“Looks like a little white rabbit, but she's quite scheming.”Kane completely lost his patience. "Sheila, does it have to be like this?"The next second, Sheila hung up the phone directly.The private room was silent at first.Then someone spoke up, "She prob

    “Sheila Emerson, once a woman passes thirty, she’s just waiting to be picked over. While you still have some assets, hurry up and find a good family to marry into.”Clutching two bottles of Louis XIII, Sheila stood in the noisy club hallway, impatiently saying, “Mom, I have a boyfriend.
