Chapter 148

Ellinor’s eyes were half–closed. She was totally into the ongoing massage, and she nonchalantly

replied, “Lately, I’ve been hassled by some jerk, dealing with endless headaches, and I’ve totally lost

my freedom”

Behind Ida’s glasses, her eyes squinted slightly. “Are you referring to that big shot from the Blanchet

Corporation?”

Ellinor’s eyebrows knitted up slightly in irritation, but she didn’t deny it.

She didn’t spill the beans to Ida about the recent events, but it didn’t surprise her that Ida knew Chase,

after all, was a notorious gossip

Chase brought some snacks for Ellinor, then crouched down elegantly to massage her legs, all smiles,

“How’s your married life? Are things, um, you know, smooth sailing in

the bedroom?”

Ellinor was about to munch on a bag of chips, but the question made her blush. She shot him a look,

“That’s none of your business!”

Chase chuckled, bowed his head, and continued the massage, no longer pressing the matter

Ida picked up a folder from the desk and handed it over to Ellinor, This is the recent financial report of

the company. Take a look.”

Ellinor browsed through the folder and seemed pleased, “Good, it’s a decent bump from last quarter.”

Then she gave Ida some suggestions based on the numbers in the report.

Chase was all ears, and after she finished, he stood up and said, “You’re not interested in running the

company, but you’re acting as Sheila’s assistant. What’s up with that?”

“With you two in charge, I’m at ease. As for being Sheila’s assistant, it’s not a forever thing!” Ellinor

replied earnestly, then asked, “By the way, have you found out anything about the guy I asked you to

investigate?”

Chase nodded, “That Pollock guy is a famous domestic director now, an art student from a small town.

He used to do behind–the–scenes work before he got famous. He met his current wife Gwyn at work,

and with the financial support from her wealthy parents, he made his first film and won the best director

award, which made him famous.”

“The key point is that Pollock used to live with your stepmother, Tracy, before he hit it big. They broke

up when Tracy found a new lover”

“And I found something else. Tracy recently went to a private hospital for a paternity test. She bribed

the dean with a hefty sum and faked a paternity test. The hospital changed the result from no biological

relation to ‘biological father and daughter The people on the test were Pollock and Sheila.”

Hearing this, Ellinor smirked…

No wonder that arrogant Pollock took a special interest in the talentless Sheila. He thought Sheila was

his own daughter!

Damn! How low was that old hag. Tracy, willing to go?!

She made her ex–lover Sheila’s father!

But now that the truth is out, it was pretty straightforward what needed to be done next

Ida made a cup of coffee for Ellinor, “There’s a big construction project coming up, specifically asking

for your design. Are you up for it?”

Ellinor took the coffee, sipped it casually, then asked, “What kind of project?”

Ida adjusted her glasses and said honestly, “Designing a new office building for the Blanchet

Corporation.”

Ellinor was speechless.

Just hearing the name Blanchet Corporation made the coffee taste bad.

Ida explained in detail, “Because the city has expanded, the city center has moved north. The Blanchet

Corporation’s building which used to be in the city center, is now on the outskirts. So, the Blanchet

Corporation plans to rebuild an office building in the new city center.”
