His serious gaze was like he was looking at a careless kid as he grumbled, âYouâve still got foam in your hairâ
Ellinor froze, remembering how she had dozed off in the bathtub while shampooing her hair and fell asleep without rinsing She rolled her eyes and retorted, âHow am I supposed to wash with you here?â
Without wasting his breath, Theo grabbed the shower head and commanded, âClose your eyes.â
Ellinor was taken aback Why did he want her to close her eyes? Was he going to wash her hair? Was he that caring?
âWhat are you waiting for? Close your eyes! He ordered Ellinor was peeved after being commanded like this. She pouted but obediently closed her eyes.
Whatever, she would hold her tongue and avoid arguing with him Otherwise, he might snatch her bath towel again!
After seeing her obediently close her eyes, he checked the water temperature before lifting the shower head over her head and letting warm water rinse her hair.
His other hand gently and patiently combed through her hair, washing away the hidden foam.
He didnât know if it was because she was pregnant, but she seemed more scatterbrained and less alert than before.
Theo didnât trust Ellinor to bathe alone after seeing her act so ditsy.
He had come in while she was bathing, not to peep, but because she had been in the bathroom for a long time without any response, so he used the key to check on her.
Considering she was pregnant and so absent-minded, he was worried she might slip and fall, which could be serious.
His large hand gently stroked her hair, occasionally massaging her scalp with the warm water. Ellinor felt as comfy as a lazy cat being petted, and she felt sleepy again. Figuring the foam would not get into her eyes, she sneakily opened her eyes and watched the handsome man wash her hair for a while.
Who would have thought the haughty Mr. Blanchet would be so caring and wash her hair?.
It was quite unbelievable!
He noticed her dazed gaze, lowered his head, and suddenly saw her eyes. âWhat are you looking at?â
Ellinor felt a bit shy, and her eyes widened, âCanât I just look at you?â
His eyes narrowed, and his tone was teasing. âDo you think Iâm handsome?â
Ellinor admitted, âYouâre very handsome.â
1 He stared at her with a sharp gaze, âIf you think Iâm handsome, why would you go with other men?
Seems like Iâm not the most handsome in your eyes!â
Ellinor tugged at the corner of her mouth and was at a loss for words.
After a round of discussion, the topic came full circle.
Theo was so concerned about Chase that he might cause trouble for him in the future. Considering this, Ellinor admitted, âMr. Blanchet, to be precise, Chase and I grew up together like family. Weâre so close that thereâs no stranger feeling, so we donât have romantic feelings; heâs like a little brother to me!â
He was surprised by her explanation but gave a sarcastic laugh, âSo youâve been friends since childhood?â
She nodded, âYes!â
Theoâs expression was serious as he asked her, âThen whatâs your relationship with the Crescent Society?â
