Chapter 120 Her Wingwoman
Elisa’s eyes narrowed slightly at the mention of his name. But Sheena pressed on with a knowing
smile. “Okay, let’s have him over, Liz! My treat tonight. Then maybe I’ll end up on tabloid covers with
the title ‘Lovesick Woman Drowning Her Sorrows’.”
“This is good, this is good!” Rachel laughed in agreement. “Let the Helm family deal with the mess.
They deserve it.”
Sheena had already jumped out her seat in excitement. “I’ll go call my parents and cry for a while. Wait
for me!”
“Let the drama begin!”
“Watch me go online!” With that, Sheena dialled a phone number and started whining as soon as the
call went through.

attention he’s in now. But never test my patience again!” Mr. Gilio shouted over the line before abruptly
hanging up.
Instead of feeling mad, Sheena rejoiced at her father’s response. She knew how hard her father had
worked hard to deal with the bad press about her.
As to what kind of person Hayden Helm truly is, perhaps only his inner circle knew. But until he was
exposed, he would always be known as a good and kind man to the public.
Not that Mr. Gilio minded at all. In fact, all he wanted was for both their families to get along. But a good
business relationship was not worth his daughter being used by Hayden and the Helm family for their
own glory.
Shortly after, the girls went out for a drink with Carle as planned.
Determined to pair Elisa and Carle up together, Rachel pulled Sheena into the same row as her,
leaving the other two sitting next to each other awkwardly. Picking up her phone, Rachel exclaimed
joyfully, “Come on, let’s take a picture! Sheen, pretend you’re depressed and wasted. Liz and Carle,
you two clink glasses with her and pretend like you’re comforting her.”
Sheena’s eyes lit up. “Yes, this is a must! Let’s do it. Hurry up!” She set up the phone camera and
quickly faked bursting into tears while the other three looked at her distressed. Together, they made a
toast and the camera snapped.
Click! Click! Click!
“It’s done! Three burst shots!” Rachel retrieved her phone from the stand, smiling with satisfaction as
she glanced at the pictures. “Not bad! I’ll make an alt account and post these later!”
Sheena let out something of a cackle. “I can’t wait to see the Helm family’s reaction before the
wedding.”
But Carle only looked at Sheena with concern. “You…”
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm“What? Am I in the wrong?” Sheena pursed her lips, clearly unimpressed.
“Isn’t this a little too far?” He fidgeted with his fingers. “The Helm family might retaliate if they find out.”
A frown plastered her face. “It’ll be from the anonymous account, not me!”
“Leave it to me,” Elisa interjected, “I know a way to prevent them from tracing our ID.”
“Great! Then I’ll send the pictures to you now.” Rachel said and immediately got to action.
Carle frowned as he watched Elisa reach for her phone. He subconsciously grabbed her wrist. “Liz.”
There was a hint of worry in his eyes, but Elisa just raised her brow questioningly with a smile.
Without a second thought, Rachel took a photo of them and uploaded it to Twitter with the caption
“They’re such a good match. Why aren’t they together yet?” Her thumb found the ‘post’ button and she
smiled at her work, before bringing her gaze up to Elisa and Carle. As her friend, it was her duty to
push Elisa a little. Ever since her divorce, Elisa had been down in the dumps. Rachel just couldn’t
stand seeing her friend mope around in her thoughts anymore.
