Chapter 164


    “Did Old Man Zimmer punish you again? Did he go too hard on you? Let me see,” she said, attempting to pull at Skye’s pants.


    Skye blushed, quickly pushing her hand away. “No! I’m a grown-up now. It’s natural to care about ay image, right?”C0ntent ? 2024 (N/?)velDrama.Org.


    Observing his expression, Sheena recalled that he was still normal when they walked to the car, not looking like someone who


    had taken a beating. Moreover, this little troublemaker had a busy shooting schedule, working earnestly and hardly any missteps.


    “You''re known to be a brat, so why did youe out on the losing side against scum like David? What happened to you?”


    Sheena pressed, curious.


    Skye sighed, mumbling, “I’m sorry. | just felt that you don’t like the way | am, so I’ve been trying to change. Sheena, if you give


    me more time, | promise | can be the person you like.”


    Sheena listened intently, genuinely surprised. However, she disagreed with what Skye had said. “Why would you change? Do


    you think it’s worth it to do so just because of my preference?”


    Skye nodded, looking determined. “As long as you''ll like it, it’s worth it.”

    “But | don’t like it.” Sheena frowned, her continued, “Everyone is a unique e continued, “Everyone is a unique individual. There’s


    no need to change oneself for someone else and diminish one’s own worth. Only by sincerely being yourself can you truly


    showcase your personal charm.”


    Back then, Sheena fell in love with Elijah and naively believed that changing herself and giving everything would make Elijah


    love her in return. Yet, what did she ultimately gain?


    Nothing but humiliation and mockery, heartbreak and torment.


    However, she would soon reim all those painful memories from that man!


    Since she had lived through it herself, Sheena did not want her friends to be hurt by such things again.


    Skye remained silent, still looking gloomy.


    Sheena sighed, realizing he was still too young. No matter how much she reasoned, he might not fully grasp it. Hence, she


    suggested having dinner with him to help ease his mood.


    Sure enough, the child-like Skye instantly perked up, regaining the sparkle in his eyes.


    After disguising themselves, they both went to Ninth Street in Farlem, the liveliest area, to get some kebabs.


    After a full day''s work today, Sheena was exhausted, so when she returned to the mansion, she fell straight into bed.


    Howard felt sorry for his sister and instructed Auntie Gloria to turn off her bedside rm clock discreetly.

    She had only just settled in when Colin arrived. After a brief exchange of greetings, Colin got straight to the point.


    “In the past few days, I’ve researched the market situation in Farlem and found a small real estatepany that could serve as

    As he spoke, he handed Sheena thepany’s information. It was apany on the brink of filing for bankruptcy. Due to its


    small scale, hardly anyone knew about it in the market, and the owner also had a clean background.


    It was indeed perfect for Sheena to acquire and quietly operate.


    “Thank you, you''ve truly been a great help,” Sheena expressed her gratitude.


    Colin blushed slightly, saying, “I don’t know exactly what you’re nning, but as long as | can assist you, that’s what matters.”


    Sheena wasted no time. On the same day, she acquired thepany and became thergest shareholder and owner behind


    the scenes.


    When signing the agreement, the former owner was bewildered and asked, “I don’t know why you insisted on buying the


    company, and you’re not even changing the registered name or allowing your identity as the behind-the-scenes owner to be


    public. What’s the reason behind all this?”
