Sheila still looked puzzled after her mom's words.
"A ring? When did I receive...? Oh, right! Mom, I remember now. Yesterday, an anonymous fan sent me a diamond ring via delivery! I was worried the media would make a big deal out of it, so I didn't wear it out!"-
Tracy was delighted to hear the news.
"That's it! Mr. Blanchet must have been crushing on you for a long time, and he confessed his love to you under the guise of a fan! I've done my homework, the guy who proposed to you yesterday was indeed Mr. Blanchet's private assistant!
Sheila, the Blanchet family is top-notch. Mr. Blanchet is very sincere about you; you can't go wrong marrying him!"
Mr. Blanchet...
Sheila couldn't help but blush and felt her heart race. Although she had never met him, she knew all about Theo, the heir of the Blanchet family, who was a big shot in the business world!
Who would have thought that Mr. Blanchet was her fan, and he was so smitten that he proposed without delay. Her charm was just too irresistible!
......
In the afternoon.
Ellinor returned from outside, holding an exquisite photo frame in her hand. She changed into her slippers and headed straight upstairs.
Sheila happened to be coming downstairs and purposely blocked her.
"What's that in your hand? Did you steal some jewelry from my wedding?"
Ellinor stopped, calmly replied, "This is my personal item."
"Show it to me!" Sheila had always been dissatisfied with this sister from the countryside. She felt that she had tarnished the image of the Mendoza family. And she never respected her.
Sheila snatched the item from her arms.
"Oh! I thought it was some treasure. It's just a picture of your mistress mother!"
She wasn't a mistress! Ellinor reached out to grab the frame, but Sheila deliberately dropped it on the floor.
"Sorry, it slipped from my hand!"
Looking at the photo frame under Sheila's foot, Ellinor's eyes turned red. This was a picture of her mother she found in the Mendoza family's old photo album. She had just taken it out today and put it in the frame, intending to keep it in her room.
Grabbing Sheila's clothes in anger, Ellinor coldly said, "Pick it up!"
Sheila was not scared, "You dare touch me? Let me tell you, I'm about to become Mrs. Blanchet, and they won't let you get away with messing with me!"
Ellinor was stunned, the Blanchet family?
The man who forced her to get engaged yesterday was also a Blanchet, just hearing the name gave her the creeps!
"You're talking about the elite Blanchet family?"
Sheila had a smug look on her face, "Yes! Are you scared? You should be! Theo Blanchet is my fan and suitor, and he only wants me now! Those gifts are wedding presents from his family last night. You better not touch them. Don’t you dare break anything, you can't afford to pay for it!
Ellinor glanced at the gifts Sheila was pointing at. She hesitated for a moment, as if she had figured something out.
This was too crazy, right? That man actually came to deliver wedding gifts!
After thinking for a moment, a spark flashed in Ellinor's eyes, and she said to Sheila, "Then I really should congratulate you! But, are you sure a prestigious family like the Blanchets would accept an actress with a bad reputation in the entertainment industry as their new lady?"
Sheila was hit where it hurts, "You don't need to worry about it! Mr. Blanchet loves me very much, he will protect me!"
"Really?"
Ellinor gave a slight smile and said no more.
