?Chapter 216:


    “Does Ellie know the sponsor?”


    “The sponsor is in a wheelchair, but he’s quite handsome.”


    “The sponsor seems to like Ellie because she’s pretty.”


    “Yeah, Ellie’s looks could evennd her an acting role.” Susanna, however, had a different view.


    She fancied the idea of Ellie, beautiful as she was, paired with the good-looking sponsor.


    “Demi, the sponsor’sst name is Thorpe too. Do you recognize him?” Nora Stewart, the lead actress, inquired of Demi.


    Demi’s expression turned grim. “I don’t know him.”


    Nora was surprised by Demi’s cold response. “Then why are you getting upset?”


    Another colleague joined in, “Right. You even agreed when we suggested the sponsor was your boyfriend.”


    “I never confirmed anything. That was your assumption,” Demi replied.


    “Isn’t that your silent agreement?” Nora rolled her eyes. “So you just went along with it randomly.”


    Demi’s frustration boiled over, leading her to m the script onto the desk before storming out rudely.


    Throughout the journey, Ellie remained silent, simply pushing Kaiden’s wheelchair.


    As they entered the presidential suite, Kaiden, still in his wheelchair, quickly closed the door. He swiftly pulled Ellie towards him, and before she could react, she found herself seated on hisp.


    She was now facing him. “Kai… Eh.”


    Kaiden’s lips met hers, silencing her words.


    Ellie tried to pull away, but her position weakened her leverage. Kaiden’s firm grip on the back of her head left her no choice but to yield to him.


    Your next journey starts at g?lnσν???s???o??


    Her eyes wide open, she saw the intense emotions in his eyes.


    The intensity of the moment caused Ellie to instinctively close her eyes. In that instant, she felt the soft brush of Kaiden’s eyshes against hers.


    “Open your mouth,” he instructed, his voice rough and deep.


    Though the central air was off, the temperature in the room seemed to rise.


    In their close embrace, Ellie could easily sense the changes in his body. Wanting to prevent things from escting further, Ellie began to tap insistently on Kaiden’s shoulder, signaling him to release her.


    “K… Kaiden…” Gasping for breath, Ellie tried to move away from him. s, she was far too weakpared to him. “Did you send the film crew millions of dors a few days ago?” she asked in a low voice.


    Kaiden simply gazed intently at her.


    Although he didn’t say anything, his intense stare was unsettling.


    “Why did you suddenly decide to sponsor this crew? From what I was told, it was a private sponsorship!” Ellie’s curiosity was genuine.
