Bytan seemed really ticked off, âDuring those three months you spent with the Blanchet family. Theo must have caught feelings for you, otherwise, he wouldnât have been so nice to you!
After you left, Theo was down in the dumps for quite a while, and heâs just recently started to bounce back.
Heâs getting along well with my sister, so I hope you wonât try to elbow your way back into his life. My sisterâs health isnât the best, so she needs Theoâs company more than you do.â
Ellinor felt a bit lost. Did Theo become all gloomy because of her?
So what? He brought it on himself He already had a woman and a kid, but he messed with her feelings out of loneliness. In the end, maybe he did develop a bit of a conquerorâs desire.
He couldnât conquer her, so he got all moody?
Byran stared at Ellinor thoughtfully his brows furrowed âEllinor. There are plenty of good men out there! If you fancy my brother Balfour, I donât mind you marrying him. My brother Balfour is just as great as Theo, I can even help you woo him!*
Ellinor gave a slight smile. For his sister Patriciaâs happiness, this kid was willing to sacrifice his own brother.
âDonât worry, Iâm not gonna fight over a man with your sister. I donât have the time or energy for such nonsense. Thanks for the offer, but I can handle my own affairs. Iâm not short of men, so you and your brother should just look after yourselves.â
Byran felt a bit miffed, as if his brother had been snubbed, âYeah, right. As soon as you landed in K city, there was a man waiting for you in a luxury car. Youâre definitely not short of men!â
Ellinor didnât bother to explain. She couldnât care less about what he thought.
Seeing that Ellinor didnât give a damn about his sarcasm, Byran felt a bit downcast. He said, âEllinor, donât be a fool. There are lots of men out there who will cheat on girls as soon as they have a bit of money. They play with them and then dump them, never taking any responsibility. Even if you donât like my brother, you better not just get together with any random guy, youâll get played! If you really canât find a good man, you can consider me. Iâm willing to marry you! I told you before, as long as you donât snatch my sisterâs man, you can be with me!â
Ellinor looked at Byran with his expression of Iâm willing to sacrifice for my sisterâ and laughed, âYou look like youâre really forcing yourself.â
Byran pouted, âIâm not forcing myself, I donât dislike you! Itâs justâ¦â
âJust what?â
âJust that I wasnât planning on getting married, but I can change for you.â
Ellinor looked at him as if he were an idiot, âStop talking nonsense! Even if youâre willing to change for me, I donât think much of you.â
Byran frowned, getting a bit hot under the collar, âEllinor! What wrong thing about me has made you look down on me?â
Ellinor lightly tapped her temple, âClearly, thereâs something wrong up hereâ
Oh my God! She was saying he was a bit loopy Byran was fuming, his anger gave him a headache and his face turned ugly.
Seeing his expression, Ellinor stopped kidding around. âOkay, I wonât tease you anymore. You and your brother donât need to sacrifice yourselves to make Patricia happy. because Iâve totally lost interest in that man called Theo.â
Though she sounded adamant, every time she mentioned that man, her heart would uncontrollably race.
Byran asked, âReally?â
