That was the first time someone had treated her with such disdain!
The fact that this person was associated with the formidable Zimmer family and also a famous actor only made her angrier. Nevertheless, she was still wary of the Zimmer family’s power, so she could only vent her frustration on Sheena.
“What kind of love potion did you brew for them? Why are they all siding with you?”
Sheena just smiled and did not answer. However, the more nonchalant she appeared, the more Erin saw it as a deliberate pretense.
“Just wait! I’ll make you pay for this!”
Sheena shrugged. “I’ll be waiting.”
Seeing that her words did not faze Sheena in the slightest, Erin could only glare back fiercely, attempting to overpower Sheena through the momentum.
Skye walked in front of Sheena, glanced at Faye and Erin in annoyance, and said, “Let’s go. Their presence is making the air at the entrance feel dirty.”
Sheena let him lead her into the venue.
Erin was so infuriated she stomped her foot. If looks could kill, she would have killed Sheena a thousand times over.
Faye, on the other hand, seemed lost in thought.
Inside the venue, representatives from various companies formed small groups, engaging in impromptu discussions before the bidding officially began.
Sheena surveyed the room, finally spotting Sarah in a rather low–profile group of people.
It was as if they had a mutual understanding. When their gazes met, they exchanged glances, silently conveying something. Coming to an unspoken agreement, they looked away as if nothing had happened.
Skye, who had been brought along reluctantly, remained oblivious. He was focused on the organizers‘ description of the details of the land in question. He turned to Sheena and asked, Sheena, do you like this piece of land? If you do, I can get it and give it to you.”
Sheena chuckled. “If you really dare to buy it, Old Man Zimmer might break your legs if he finds out.”
“He won’t punish me. In fact, he’d be delighted because it’s a gift for you,” Skye said, smiling warmly. When he gazed at her, his eyes sparkled like stars. “And even if I do get into trouble when I return, it’s worth it for you.”
Sheena playfully tapped his forehead. “Stop being cheesy.”
Skye pouted playfully, exclaiming, “Ouch!”
He held his forehead in a mock plea for comfort, and the bidding event officially began as the two were fooling around.
