Chapter 112

Sheila shot Ellinor a look, ready to throw a couple more insults her way, but was cut off by the sudden

ring of her phone

It was a video call from their dad, Arnold Mendoza

Sheila waved her phone in front of Ellinor, bragging, “See, it’s Dad calling! I bet you hardly ever get

calls from him, huh? Just shows that he doesn’t care about his illegitimate

daughter!”

Ellinor just shrugged and laughed, “Better answer it quick, sis, or your beloved dad might hang up.”

Sheila picked up, making sure Ellinor could hear

On–screen, Arnold and Tracy appeared, smiling at their celebrity daughter.

Amold asked with concern, “How’s work today, Sheila? Have you eaten yet?”

Sheila pouted, pretending to be upset, “Haven’t had the chance! I’ve been so busy, who has time for

food?”

Arnold frowned. “You’ve got to eat! No matter how busy you are, health comes first!”

Tracy chimed in, “Sheila, your dad is night! if you really can’t, have some milk first We’ll be worried sick

if you starve yourself.”

Sheila put on a wronged face, “Ive no appetite for anything but Dad’s cooking”

Arnold cooed, “Well, that’s easy I’ll cook for you when you get back from work!”

“But I’ll get home so late! You’ll be asleep…”

“Doesn’t matter! No matter how late, I’ll get up to cook for you!”

“Thanks, Dad I knew you loved me the most!”

“Alright, your mom and I won’t disturb you at work. Come home early tonight; I’ll cook for you!”

Just as Arnold was about to hang up, Sheila called him back.

“Wait, Dad! Look who’s here!”

She suddenly turned the camera to Ellinor.

Spotting his less accomplished daughter, Ellinor, Arnold frowned in disappointment, “Ellinor? What are

you doing in Sheila’s car?”

Ellinor smiled, ready to talk to her father.

But Sheila didn’t give her the chance, turning the camera back to herself, “Dad, here’s the thing! I ran

into Ellinor at the company today. She was there for a job interview. So I asked her to be my assistant!

You know, family helps family!”

“Oh, I see! Sheila, turn the camera back. I’ve got something to say to your sister.”

Sheila did as told.

Arnold, looking at his younger daughter on screen, advised seriously. “Ellinor, your sister has given you

a great opportunity. You should work hard! It’s much better than being someone else’s maid. It’s better

to look after your sister than serve others. It’ll put me and Auntie Tracy at ease!”

Ellinor felt the irony, but she just smiled sweetly, “Tll be sure to appreciate my sister’s help”

Sheila’s pride was evident as she excitedly bragged, “See? I’m Dad’s favorite. No matter what I do, he

forgives me. He treats me like a princess‘ But you, no matter how good or hardworking you are, no

matter how much you try to please him, you can’t get his attention!”

Ellinor closed her eyes, choosing to ignore her.

Sheila felt she hadn’t vented enough and added, “Ellinor, nobody in this world could love you!”

Ellinor gripped her water bottle tightly, “So what? Should I die if no one loves me?*

Sheila scoffed, “No one would care whether you live or die No one would mourn your death! What’s the

use of being a top graduate? In the end, aren’t you just my assistant? Ellinor, you better behave

yourself, or I’ll have Dad kick you out of the Mendoza family!”

Without batting an eyelid, Ellinor replied, “Do as you wish, sis I’ll be waiting”

Sheila glared at Ellinor’s nonchalant look, feeling unsatisfied.

But she figured there was no need to deal with her right away. She had plenty of time and opportunities

to knock her down a peg or two in the future!
