Chapter 1582
Ida squinted her eyes, fixing them on him with a sharp gaze. âYou call me master, but you refuse to
obey me?â
Byran gently cupped Ida's face. âMaster, if I behave, can I remove your glasses?â
Dealing with this kiddo had become quite the chore. She removed her gold-rimmed glasses. âAs
long as you behave, I'll allow anything.â
No sooner had she finished speaking had the âpuppyâ lunged at her.
At the dinner table, Ellinor was feeding the children and dealing with Bartlett's flirtatious banter.
Bartlett and the three children were easy to be mistaken for a family, which made Ellinor hope that
Ida and Byran would come back soon.
Instead, they were joined by Chase and Belinda.
Chase and Belinda walked into the room side by side. They looked surprised to see Bartlett there.
They gave him a nod as a greeting and sat next to Ellinor.
Chase lightly pinched Baber's face and asked, âBoss, where's Ida? Didn't she say she was having
dinner with you?â
âShe just went to the restroom.â
After understanding the situation, Chase picked up a new set of cutlery from the table and handed
it to Belinda. âYou didnât eat much at home. Do you want to eat
more?â
Belinda looked uncomfortable. âI'm not hungry...â
Ellinor watched this scene with interest and raised an eyebrow. âChase, I heard from Ida that you
were having dinner at your girlfriend's house.â
Chase smiled openly. âYes. And now, I've brought my girlfriend to meet you, Boss.â
Ellinor looked at Belinda curiously. âWhen did you two start dating?â
Belinda was embarrassed and shy. âEllinor, we...â
She wasn't even sure if she and Chase were officially dating.
Chase, knowing her shyness, took over the conversation. âToday, she just agreed to be my
girlfriend.â
Ellinor looked at Chase and then at Belinda.
In the past, she might have given some advice. She would have been worried that Chase would hurt
Belinda.
But now she didn't feel qualified to judge other people's relationships.
After a moment of silence, she said sincerely, âWell, I hope you two will be happy together.â
Belinda blushed, not knowing what to say.
Chase replied with a smile. âWe will.â
Soon, Ida and Byran also returned.
After seeing Ida's freshly applied lipstick, everyone understood what the two had been doing in the
restroom.
With the arrival of Chase and Belinda, the atmosphere lightened up. They all chatted casually.
Bartlett didnât have the opportunity to flirt with Ellinor anymore. When it was time to leave, Bartlett,
who didn't have a car, had to get a nde from one of them.
Of course, he wanted to ride with Ellinor, hoping to have a chance to talk with her privately.
However, Ellinor had no such intention and asked Chase to give him a
lift.
Bartlett, left with no choice, had to go with Chase. But before leaving, he walked over to Ellinor,
saying warmly, âEllinor, drive safely and let me know when you get
home.â
Ellinor replied casually, âDonât worry.â
