Chapter 280
When Ellinor woke up again, it was already pitch-black outside
The side effects of the IV had made her so drowsy so she had slept like a log
However, she felt a bit better now, she could sit up alone
After sitting up, she looked around and saw a man sitting on the couch in the hospital room........
She jumped, then took a closer look, it was Then!
Theo was lounging on the couch, one hand propping up his forehead, a laptop on
his lap, apparently busy with some important work.
âYou awake?â
Theo's eyes were glued to his computer, but he seemed to know she was awake.
Ellinor frowned, surprised, âTheo, why are you still here?â
Theo glanced at her, picked up his coffee from the table, and sipped, âDidnât someone ask me not to lea
Ellinor chuckled awkwardly. âI said you could leave when Belinda returns. Where's Belinda?
As she spoke, she looked around but didn't see Belinda in the room.
âCollin took her home." Theo replied nonchalantly.
Ellinor felt down; with Belinda gone, it was just her and Theo left...
Theo raised an eyebrow, âWhat's up? Disappointed that I'm keeping you company?â
Ellinor sighed helplessly. Looking at Theo, she saw him eating something while working on his laptop...

âThat's mine!â Ellinor frowned, trying to reclaim her cake.
Theo frowned imperiously, âCan't I eat what's yours?â
Ellinor was upset, âYou've already eaten so much, why are you still fighting me over it."

âAll rightâ
Theo suddenly let go, and due to the momentum, Ellinor lost her balance and fell into Theo's arms...
Luckily, the cake didn't fall, it was caught in time by Theo's large hand.
Her chin hit Theo's collarbone hard, even through a shirt layer, she could feel the line of his bones...
She instinctively propped up her body, accidentally brushing against Theo's cheek, her face felt a bit itct
She scratched her face with her hand and said helplessly, âYou need to shave.â
âReally?â Theo raised his eyebrows, one hand around her waist, pulling her back towards him, deliberat
Ellinor blushed, whether from anger or embarrassment wasn't clear, âYou enough already!â
Theo let go, his tired eyes looking at her, âI haven't slept in two days; when would I have had time to sh
Ellinor paused, two days without sleep?
