Whether he was trying to conquer her or just seeking novelty, it was totally disrespectful to her and all about his self-centered and domineering desire.
Who the hell did he think he was? That any woman would willingly become his secret mistress just because he was willing and indicated so?
That was way outta line!
Thinking of this, Ellinor got angry and pushed away Theoâs hand that was gripping her chin. âYeah! I just wanna make money from the Howard Group, not you! I donât want your money!â
She didnât want his money?!
Theoâs face darkened and he stared at her gloomily, struggling to control his anger He was born to control everything, so naturally, heâd be pissed when he met a woman he couldnât His emotions, which were already calming down, surged again in an instant.
Looking at her face, which he both loved and hated, Theo gripped her throat, âEllinor, have I spoiled you too much? Made you think I donât have a temper and that I wonât get angry with you?â
Ellinor instinctively struggled, trying to push away his hands that were gripping her throat, but to no avail. Her face was already turning red, âTheo you cough cough cough!â
Had this man gone mad? He was trying to kill her?
He really wished he could just strangle her to death, so she wouldnât piss him off anymore Seeing her start to cough because she couldnât breathe, Theo finally let go, âEllinor, did you think I was joking about everything I said to you before?â
Ellinor looked at him as her pupils trembled slightly She was the joke! She took everything he said seriously and thought he was sincere. She thought she was the only one in his heart, but in reality, he already had a child It was just too ridiculous!
Just then, Theoâs phone vibrated, breaking the stalemate between them.
Theo glanced at the screen and took a few seconds to consider before releasing Ellinor. He picked up the call and asked in a deep voice, âWhatâs up?â
The car was so quiet that even without the speaker on, Ellinor could hear Patriciaâs gentle voice on the phone âTheo, where are you? As soon as you left. Baber started making a fuss and crying for you!â
Theo frowned, âPut him to sleep firstâ
Patriciaâs voice sounded helpless, âBut â
Before she could finish, Theo hung up the call. He threw his phone aside, obviously annoyed.
Ellinor didnât think there was anything wrong with Theo brushing off Patricia so casually on the phone.
Men were always like this. They would enjoy the woman at hand while anticipating a new one, changing their minds so quickly.
âMr. Blanchet, hanging up on Ms. Howard like that is not good for her or the kid. Donât you think? They seem to need you right now!â
Theo looked up at her coldly. âAre you telling me what to do?â
Ellinor forced a smile,â No, I wouldnât dare! I have no place to interfere in Mr. Blanchetâs affairs, but I happen to be in your car right now and any unnecessary misunderstandings would make things awkward for meâ
Theo snuffed out the nearly finished cigarette in his hand, staring at her coldly. âUnnecessary misunderstandings? What kind of misunderstandings?â
Ellinor pursed her lips, âLike people misunderstanding that Iâm seducing a married man with a kid in his car. And that Iâm keeping you from answering calls and going home to your wife and kid!â
Theo frowned, staring coldly at her, âMs. Mendoza, it seems youâre the one who misunderstood first.
That child isnâtâ¦
