Wait, She’s a Billionaire

Howard knew Phoebe had always been a girl full of ambition and career drive.

If Phoebe wanted to continue pursuing her career, he had no reason to refuse

Howard Indulgently ruffled Phoebe’s hair and said, “Alright, but I had the team stop accepting offers because you were sick, and you haven’t acted in a while. Tomorrow, I’ll have them arrange small web series for you to familiarize yourself with. How does that sound?”

Phoebe hesitated for a moment but chose to listen to Howard, obediently nodding.

Now, with her memory regressed by four years and lacking the maturity gained from her recent years of work, her gaze was as innocent and nalve as ever.

Howard had always liked her for her naivety, kindness, and cuteness.

Seeing her now, he could not help but feel a sense of nostalgia, as if he had returned to the time when he first met her.

It seemed nice enough.

It did not matter even if she could not remember. They would just start over.

The global bidding conference hosted by Dorvell Corporation was drawing closer with each passing day.

In three days, it would take place at the luxurious seven–star hotel in Ardolisia, the Francia Hotel.

Sheena worked tirelessly to prepare for this conference, drafting proposals and working late into the night. She had even revised the plans five times over.

At 1 a.m., she was still in the study, burning the midnight oil as there were a few parts of the proposal she was not satisfied with.

Driven by her pursuit of perfection, she intended to make the necessary changes before heading downstairs to rest.

Suddenly, the faint sound of the door opening echoed.

The study door was cracked open, and a pair of eyes cautiously surveyed the situation inside the dark room.

Sheena did not stop typing on the keyboard and unexpectedly spoke up, “Come in. Why are you acting all sneaky in your own home? Someone who doesn’t know better might think you’re a thief.”

With that, the study door swung open completely.

Eliot, who had been alone in the room downstairs, slipped inside

Hana, don’t stay up too late. It’s not good for your health.”

Shena kept her eyes fixed on the computer screen, saying. There’s one final proposal left to finalize. I go to bed after I finish it. If you’re tired, go ahead and sleep first. Don’t wait for me.”

Epot suppressed his frustration and argued, “You said the same thing ten minutes ago, half an hour ago, an hour ago, and three hours ago. Honey, could you at least change up your words a bit?”

“Oh… really? Sheena awkwardly rubbed her nose.

Elliot walked over and immediately lifted her up from the chair, sitting her on his lap in her office chair.

“Neil and I are acquaintances. Since he’s already agreed to the pre–selection for the bidding conference, you can just have one of the staff members deliver it to him. Cooperation is a sure thing,

so why tire yourself out?”

With a hint of fatigue in her eyes, Sheena replied, “I know, but I don’t want to rely on your connections. I certainly don’t want people to criticize us for doing that. We need a proposal that shows enough sincerity to earn everyone’s respect and ensure the bidding conference is fair and

square.”

Elliot gently caressed her cheek with his fingertip, his eyes full of tenderness.

He knew she was determined, and once she decided on her career, it was hard to change.

Instead of trying to persuade her further, Elliot asked, “The bidding conference is in three days. You’ll have to fly overseas for a business trip. How many days do you plan to stay?”

“I’ll finalize the proposal tonight, book an early morning flight tomorrow, and head over. If everything goes smoothly, I should return in a few days.”

“A few days?” Elliot’s expression changed. “I can’t bear even a day without you!”

Sheena chuckled at his exaggeration. “You’re being dramatic.”

Elliot sighed, genuinely concerned. “No, I have to go with you. I can work remotely, treat it as a Nôvel(D)ra/ma.Org exclusive © material.

belated honeymoon vacation, and have fun.”

Sheena’s expression turned serious instantly.

She gently tapped his forehead and scolded him, “That won’t work. If you leave, Auntie Freida will be alone caring for the twins. What if something happens?”

“I’ll call Lionel over to help Auntie Freida with the babies.”

Sheena persisted, “But if you leave, Lionel will have to handle the National Investigation Bureau’s

matters and the Jenkins Group’s affairs while reporting the meeting records to you regularly. Plus,

he’ll need to take care of Asher and Adora. He can’t handle all of that alone.”
