Chapter 420
Ellinor snapped back to reality when Theo playfully tapped her nose
Bending down to her level as she sat on the bed, Theo said in a gentle tone, âThe BBQ got burnt
âcause no one was watching. I had someone make you a new one, and it'll be
here soonâ
Ellinor wasn't really bothered about the BBQ anymore. The grilled chicken wings that Byran brought
her were enough to fill her up.
With a mischievous glint in her eyes, she raised an eyebrow, âTheo, are you keeping some personal
issues from me?â
Theo paused for a moment, then squatted down in front of her, looking earnestly into her eyes,
shaking his head, âNoâ
âThat's good then! Ellinor didn't push further
She didn't really take Patricia's words seriously, if it weren't for Patricia's weird smile, she would've
forgotten about the rumor of Theo and Patricia having a child.
Having spent over two months with Theo, she may not know much, but she trusted him. Theo was
not the kind of guy to shirk responsibility.
And Patricia, always playing the moral high ground, if she really had a kid with Theo, she would've
used it to manipulate the Blanchet family by now, she wouldn't be keeping
it a secret
"Why're you asking all of a sudden?â
*No reason, just curious! By the way, Theo, Byranâs grilled wings are good, wanna try?â
Saying so, she picked up a wing from the plate on the bedside table and held it to Theo's mouth.
Theo chuckled, taking a bite, âMmm, it's good. Eat up, we'll head home once you're done.â
âOkay Ellinor nodded.
âEat up Thea ruffled her hair, feeling a pang of affection.
He just wanted to take her out for some fun today, but unexpected problems arose, leaving her
soaked and cold.
it was all his fault for not taking care of her properly. This couldn't happen again.
By the time they got back to the Blanchet villa, it was already late in the night.
Theo walked Ellinor to her bedroom door, âI have to go overseas for a bit to handle something. Be
good while I'm away and don't roam around too much, donât make me worryâ
"How long will you be gone?â
âAbout half a month.â
Ellinor frowned, âWhat could take that long?â
With a teasing smile, Theo said, âYou'll miss me? How about a goodbye kiss then?â
He bent down slightly, purposely turning his cheek towards her
Ellinor smirked and playfully smacked his face, âTheo, have a safe trip. Good night!â
After saying that, she turned around, went into her room, and locked the door.
Theo was both amused and frustrated, why did he fall for such a tormenting woman?
During the half a month that Theo was away, Ellinor had the perfect opportunity to focus on the
construction plans for the Blanchet Corporation building
