Amold and Tracy both looked out of the car window when they heard Sheilaâs surprised voice Tracy said, âAmold look, thatâs Ellinor! I think thatâs her boyfriend with her Can you believe a gut like Ellinor is out gallivanting around with a man this late? That doesnât look good, does 117â
Amold frowned in displeasure. For one, his daughter Ellinor was out late with a man, which was improper Secondly, he saw Ellinor and the guy heading for the subway entrance From their angle, all they could see was the manâs back or profile, his face was totally hidden.
But they all came to the same conclusion about him.
Heâs broke Sheila sighed with feigned concem, âDad, why has Ellinor picked a boyfriend who still takes the subway! Sheâs not getting any wiser The guys mom introduced to her all had cars and houses!â
Tracy chimed in, sighing with a victimized air. âOh well, what Ellinor likes matters most! I think the guy is pretty tall and probably handsome too. Iâm just worried he might be too poor to treat Ellinor wellâ
âHow can a Mendoza girl marry such a guy? Itâs so embarrassing!â
Amold huffed in annoyance.
Earlier today, he proudly accompanied Sheila to sign a contract with a big company and had a few drinks with the manager. But now he felt disappointed to see Ellinorâs state Sheila and her mother, Tracy, exchanged a smile. In their minds, Ellinor was just fit for a subwayâriding poor guy.
Inside the subway station.
As Ellinor was buying tickets at the automatic ticket machine, Theo stood behind her, watching her operate the machine.
After buying her own ticket, Ellinor turned and left without even glancing at him.
Standing in front of the machine. Theo followed the prompts a few times, then frowned.
Although it was his first time taking the subway, he wasnât so clueless as to not know how to use the ticket machine. The main problem was that he wasnât familiar with the routes and didnât know which direction to buy the ticket for Looking around. Ellinor had long disappeared.
The people lining up behind him were starting to get anxious, urging, âHave you bought it yet? Can you operate the machine or not?â
Theo turned around, and his cold and imposing aura shocked the nagging lady behind him into silence.
She wisely chose to line up elsewhere.
Not wanting to delay others. Theo stepped aside, took out his phone, and called Collin, âWhich direction should I buy the ticket for?â
Collin was dumbfounded He didnât take the subway either, he had no ideal âJust hold on, Iâll look it up right away!â
Theo responded with a stern face Just then, a womanâs laughter came from behind him.
He turned around and saw Ellinor leaning against a pillar, watching him and laughing heartily, saying.
âIs this your first time at a subway station?â
Theo was expressionless and didnât reply.
Ellinor continued to laugh âConsidering you paid for the getâtogether, Iâll treat you to a subway ride!
Letâs go!â
With that, she threw a subway card at him like a dart Theo reached out and caught it, taking a quick look at the card between his fingers So she had bought his ticket along with hers?
She had intentionally hidden to laugh at him Theo wasnât angry and chuckled lightly as Ellinor walked in In a while, Collin called back, âI found it! You should buy âNo needâ
Theo hung up before he could finish
