Transmigrated as The Best Female Character of the Year

Chapter 256: I Don’t Even Know How I Offended Him

Sponsored

The female lead’s brother ascends the throne, but due to a severe injury from his childhood, an old malady flares up, and he dies in his prime!

On the verge of marriage, she resolutely calls off the engagement to place the young prince, barely a year old, on the throne.

She then serves as regent for twenty long years.

’It’s a fantastic script. It needs a top-notch team to bring it to life!’

She had absolute confidence in Melody Monroe’s acting skills!

Rose Shaw was brimming with confidence.

...

The moment Wayne Payne stepped out of Christopher Sterling’s office, he immediately called Lana Sheffield.

When Lana Sheffield heard that Christopher Sterling was giving his own investment to Melody Monroe of all people, she was so furious she almost smashed her phone.

"That shameless Melody Monroe! How dare she be so arrogant!"

She was absolutely livid!

"That bastard Christopher Sterling! What is he thinking?"

Mason Sheffield walked in from outside. He had just returned from the airport and rushed straight home, looking weary and dust-covered from his travels.

’This time, he had miscalculated!’

Not only had he failed to get Evan Fairchild to continue their partnership, but he had somehow also managed to offend two other titans of industry.

Evan Fairchild had rejected the project they’d been discussing and given it to someone else. To make matters worse, Ethan was now even trying to poach his investments! How could he possibly compete with the Fairchild family now?

’What a complete mess!’

But he truly couldn’t figure out how he had offended Evan Fairchild.

’What could be the reason? The Fairchild family is playing for keeps this time!’

Mason Sheffield started to panic.

He had rushed back, hoping to find the root of the problem.

Just as Mason Sheffield walked through the door, Jude Sheffield returned home right after him.

"Dad, what’s the big emergency? Why’d you call me back in such a rush?" Jude Sheffield grumbled, flopping onto the sofa.

"I need you to think very carefully. Have you, in any way, offended Evan Fairchild?"

"Me? Offend Evan Fairchild? You think I have that kind of access?"

"Think hard! Do you have any idea what kind of crisis the company is facing right now? If we don’t handle this, we’ll be facing bankruptcy!"

Jude Sheffield immediately sat up straight, his expression turning serious. But no matter how hard he thought, he couldn’t come up with anything.

"Dad, I really haven’t! I might pick a fight with some random nobody, but Evan Fairchild? Who is he? I can’t even get in the same room with the guy, let alone cross paths with him. How could I possibly have offended him?"

Mason Sheffield also thought it was unlikely.

Suddenly, his gaze shifted to his daughter, who was sitting to one side.

"It’s even less likely to be me!" Lana Sheffield immediately shook her head.

"Maybe not you, but what about Christopher Sterling? I believe Evan Fairchild has an entertainment company. You need to ask Christopher, right now, if he’s had any run-ins with Evan Fairchild!"

"That’s impossible."

"Call him right now. Tell Christopher Sterling to get over here immediately!"

Lana Sheffield picked up her phone and dialed Christopher Sterling’s number.

The more Mason Sheffield thought about it, the more plausible it seemed. If it wasn’t Christopher Sterling, it couldn’t be anyone from the Sheffield family.

Otherwise, why had there been no trouble before? It was only after his daughter married Christopher Sterling that Evan Fairchild started targeting them.

If his daughter had married the second young master of the Roarke family, would Evan Fairchild dare to target them like this?

Even if he didn’t respect them, he would have had to respect the Roarkes!

It wouldn’t have come to this, where he couldn’t even find anyone to put in a good word for him. He had swallowed his pride and gone begging, only to be met with complete rejection.

Forty minutes later, Christopher Sterling arrived at the Sheffield residence.

"Have you had a falling-out with Evan Fairchild recently?" Mason Sheffield demanded the moment he saw Christopher Sterling.

"I have no personal conflict with him. In business, of course, we’re competitors," Christopher Sterling replied calmly.

"Dad, don’t be so angry. Competition within the same industry is normal!"
