Chapter 729

Hearing Sheena’s voice, the girl turned to look at her, and her exquisitely beautiful face lit up with a warm smile.

“Ms. Lawson, long time no see. How are you and Mr. Jenkins on this New Year’s Eve?”

“We’re doing well, thank you. It’s New Year’s Eve. Aren’t you participating in any countdown specials? Why aren’t you with your family? Who allowed you to enter Mountville?”

“The guards at the foot of the mountain let me in. Ms. Lawson, please don’t misunderstand. My endorsement contract with the Jenkins Group’s Project Rossi is about to expire. When I heard Mr. Jenkins was here, I came personally, hoping he would consider giving me another endorsement opportunity.”

Sheena narrowed her eyes skeptically. “Ms. Sheila, you’ve been the reigning Best Actress and a popular star. Do you have to personally handle your own contracts now? What are your agent and company doing?”

“Well, the endorsement contract with the Jenkins Group is not easy to secure. My agent’s team might be unable to handle it, so I didn’t want to miss this lucrative opportunity. Naturally, I had to make a personal visit.”

Sheena stared at her, clearly not buying her story. If she indeed came looking for Elliot and found her way to Mountville, then her source was impressively accurate.

“We’re all family. It’s not suitable for you to join us.”
