Chapter 492
It would seem that she was also invited to the gala.
It must have been delivered in the morning, and she missed it while being at the hospital.
Well, this was an excellent opportunity for her to join in on the fun!
Sheena decided
give Skye a call. Although the Zimmer family was not considered a top–tier family in Svelton, Skye’s popularity as an entertainment industry sensation brought its own charisma.
Moreover, she had invited Skye to Svelton before, and now it was a perfect chance to pull him in as her plus–one!
In the evening, at the top floor of Majesty Hotel, a grand charity gala was about to take place.
Sheila was dressed in an elegant white gown, and she looked stunning. At this moment, she sat in Elliot’s extended version of a Bentley, heading to Majesty Hotel alongside him.
A small table separated Sheila and Elliot’s seats in the car.
Elliot’s handsome face was hidden under the mask, appearing annoyed and unapproachabl
Although Sheila could not see his expression clearly, she could unmistakably feel the pressure emanating from him.
Leaning on her hand, she playfully remarked, “Mr. Jenkins, I can’t help but feel envious of you and Ms. Lawson since I saw your news last time. However, you seem to treat me so indifferently. Do you reserve all your tenderness for Ms. Lawson?”
Elliot ignored her.
Unfazed, she continued with an innocent smile, “Lnever had any siblings growing up. For some reason, I’ve always found myself drawn to you. I have a pitiful background, and I envy Ms. Lawson for being born with a silver spoon.”

Elliot barely raised an eyebrow, not considering her words problematic until she started comparing herself to Sheena.
Deliberately playing the victim in front of him and subtly criticizing Sheena?
Elliot’s expression grew colder, and he chose to remain silent.
Undeterred, Sheila continued to playfully and somewhat pitifully say, “If you could share a bit of that tenderness with me, just a tiny bit, I’d be content.”
Sheila was undeniably beautiful, with an excellent reputation in the entertainment industry, boasting many male fans and even catching the attention of many wealthy young men.
Few could resist her charm, yet Elliot did not even spare her a glance.
His deep voice cut through the silence as he said, “Anything that belongs to Nana is not to be shared, not even a fraction.”
Sheila’s expression showed a hint of hurt, and she pretended to be unaffected, saying, “Mr. Jenkins, don’t mind me. I was just joking with you. However, you truly shower Ms. Lawson with affection. She’s so lucky, it’s truly enviable.”
Elliot remained silent, ignoring her.
The car fell into a quiet lull for two minutes, and a subtle hint of awkwardness lingered in the air.
Feeling a bit defeated, Sheila, driven by a strong desire to conquer, decided to rekindle the
conversation.
“Mr. Jenkins, what made you choose this car for tonight’s event? I heard that you own the only black limited–edition SSC supercar in the whole country. I’m curious, as someone like me never had the chance to witness the stunning beauty of that car.”
