The ringtone of her phone suddenly blared out, snapping Ellinor back to reality. The flirty vibe that had been lingering between them vanished in an instant!
Facing the manâs gaze, she awkwardly stepped back a bit, pulled out her phone, and lowered her head to see it was Sheila who was calling her Before she had a chance to answer, Sheilaâs voice echoed from outside the bathroom, accompanied by polite knocks on the doorâ¦.
âEllinor, itâs you in there, isnât it? I heard your ringtone! Hurry up and get out, stop slacking off in the bathroom!â
Ellinor frowned and looked up at the man, shrugged and said, âTheo, you heard that, right? Someoneâs hunting for me, I gotta go.â
Theo lowered his head to look at her and didnât respond.
Ellinor said. âCould you hang back a bit before you leave? If she saw us both in the same bathroom, it would be hard to explain.â
As soon as she finished speaking, she turned to leave, but the manâs hand was still on her waist, and he pulled her back into his arms.
He lowered his head, leaned close to her ear, and warmed harshly. âDonât you dare drink toasts with anyone else!â
Ellinor blinked, replied, âGot itâ
Even if she couldnât see his expression at that moment, she could clearly feel the strong possessiveness radiating from him.
But, that was just his personal habit, not any special feelings for her. She knew this very well, yet still there was an inexplicable annoyance in her heart. Like a stone thrown into a calm lake, causing ripples, then quickly returning to tranquility.
However, the stone that fell into the water sank to the bottom of the lake, remaining there foreverâ¦
Ellinor left the bathroom Sheila arrogantly crossed her arms and impatiently exclaimed, âEllinor, you sure know how to slack off!
Hiding in the bathroom under the guise of answering a call! Do I pay you to slack off?
Ellinor yawned firedly. âItâs half past ten at night. Regardless of how high the salary is, I think itâs time to call it a dayâ
Sheila snorted disdainfully, angrily saying. âYou have the nerve to mention quitting time? I havenât even confronted you about scalding Mr Blanchet! Do you know how serious it is to offend Mr. Blanchet? If he doesnât invest in my new movie today, itâs your fault!â
Ellinorâs expression was cold, âIâve apologized to him. If compensation is needed, I can pay for a tube of burn ointment. Any other impact is none of my concern. before I didnât want to go in. You insisted on bringing me in. The tea was also your ideaâ
âYou Sheila was left speechless.
Ellinor stretched out, yawned again. âIf thereâs nothing else, Iâm gonna call it a day! Bye!â
After saying this, Ellinor walked past Sheila and headed downstairs, she had no intention of returning to that tea room, it seemed pointless.
âEllinor, who said you could leave? Get back here! Did you hear me⦠Sheila stood there furning, glaring at her..
Ellinor, on the other hand, completely ignored her, not looking back as she descended the stairs said Sheila gritted her teeth in anger. If it wasnât for the fact she was waiting for Pollock and couldnât leave, she would definitely chase after her and give her a piece of her mind!
Ellinor was just a girl with no manners, like some country bumpkin, completely unruly!
Sheila glared at Ellinorâs retreating figure, muttered a few words under her breath, then turned to go back to her room. But when she turned around, she saw Theo gracefully exiting the bathroom they were just inâ¦.
