Chapter 326: Chapter 326

In the middle of a crowded subway, Ellinor was completely swayed by Theo’s words…

Even though the subway was super noisy, he spoke so softly, it felt like she was the only one who could hear him.

Yet, she was blushing and feeling shy!

Without looking up at Theo, she chuckled softly, ‘I didn’t save your life, you don’t have to thank me.”

Theo held her tight, “Who said you didn’t save me? You did, that rainy night, I know you were saving me.”

Ellinor froze for a moment, feeling awkward again when he brought up that night…

“That day I got kidnapped, didn’t you risk your life to save me? So, we’re even, you don’t have to feel responsible for me!”

She was still trying her best to clarify their relationship, sometirnes Theo thought Ellinor was too smart for her own good, other times she was so naive it drove him crazy.

“You’re so naive, but you’re a good kid, always acting so cold!”

Theo scolded her gently while ruffling her hair, “You’re making light of it now, but I know you struggled a lot at the time to save me, night wasn’t easy for you, it’s my fault you had to suffer.”

Ellinor was taken aback, her nose suddenly turned sour.

that No one had ever understood her feelings like this before, trying to figure out how she was feeling, seeing through her facade, and not mocking her.

Growing up, some people thought she was beneath them, they took joy in humiliating her when she couldn’t fight back, completely ignoring her feelings.

Now that she’s grown up and can protect herself, everyone thinks she’s so strong that she can’t be broken, that she doesn’t have a vulnerable side.

This often led her to ignore her own feelings, fooling herself into thinking she had no fears, no weaknesses.

This man, he shattered that protective layer in her heart….

The man sighed suddenly, whispering. “Looks like, I’m just not cut out for romance. The flower field I prepared for you that day went to waste, you barely looked at it before you left. Instead, I ended up confessing my feelings in this noisy, casual setting.”

Ellinor looked up in surprise, “What? The tulip field at Pearl Moon, that was for me?”

“Who else would it be for?”

“Hmph, don’t lie to me, how could that field of flowers be for me? That day in your public confession at The Bund of Trent River, you even said Patricia’s name!”

“That wasn’t me.”

Theo didn’t get angry at the misunderstanding, instead he patiently explained to her.

“I’ve been investigating the matter these past few days, trying to figure out who was behind all that stuff that made you misunderstand me.”

Ellinor listened, blinking…

The man lowered his head, whispering seriously in her ear, “You need to understand, my situation is complicated. I can’t make a public confession, I won’t make a public confession to anyone. That’s just revealing my weakness, putting the other person in danger of being kidnapped and used against me.

So, I would never do something like that.”

Ellinor finally understood, she had been kidnapped last time and used to threaten Theo.

“I’ve found out the truth about that matter, there happened to be someone with the same name in the LED advertisement on the Century Bank building that day, it was all just a coincidence and had nothing to do with me. If you don’t believe me, I can take you to see their order.”

So that’s what happened?

“When you were sitting alone at the Bund that day, looking at all that, were you cursing me in your heart?”

Ellinor felt embarrassed, then nodded honestly.

Yes, she had cursed him.

That day, she thought Theo had called her to Pearl Moon to watch him confess to Patricia, it was so unfair!

Now that she knew it wasn’t true, she fell a bit ashamed.

Theo could understand Ellinor’s feelings, but he also felt helpless, reminding her, “Next time if I do something that makes you upset, you need to ask me directly, don’t make assumptions on your own.”

Ellinor knew she had misunderstood Theo, she stopped being stubborn, “Okay, I got it.”

After clearing up the misunderstanding between them, Ellinor finally stopped resisting and being wary of him. Theo breathed a sigh of relief.

That day in the tulip field, she had disappeared quietly from Pearl Moon and he couldn’t reach her.

He had spent the whole night searching for her in Greenhaven, her phone was unreachable, her cellphone was left at the police station, she hadn’t gone home, there were no clues.

He was always worried that she would disappear one day.

Theo pulled her head into his chest, wishing he could hold her inside his body, not giving her a chance to leave.

After all, it is not a suitable place to talk on a crowded subway. Once they reached their stop. Theo took Ellinor’s hand and led her off the subway, planning to take her to get something good to eat.
