Chapter 498
Theo's sudden appearance took everyone aback, and they started whispering among themselves
"Holy cow! Am I seeing things? Did Theo really show up at the Howard family's bash?â
âMr. Blanchet must be here for Ms. Howard, right? Breaking traditions to woo the girl he's head over
heels in love with, who belongs to a family heâs supposed to be feuding with Talk about making a
grand gesture!â
1 heard that despite the opposition from his own family, Mr. Blanchet is hell bent on getting
engaged to Ms. Howard
âRegardless of everything else, Theo is seriously hot! I'm green with envy. Ms. Howard is one lucky
gal; not only does she have Balfour, who adores her, but sheâs also got this power player as her
fiancé
Theo, with his head down, responded to Patricia, âMm-hmmâ
Though his response was brief, it left tons of room for speculation
Theo's deep and lazy voice seemed to make their relationship crystal clear to the onlookers.
It was as if Theo and Patricia had become a cozy couple who didnât need much verbal
communication.
However, seeing Patricia and Theo standing together, Balfour furrowed his brows.
Theos presence was definitely not expected
Subsequently, Balfour subconsciously glanced at Ellinor's reaction.
Ellinor was emotionless as usual, her face didn't portray any particular emotion.
Aunt Bluna seemed a bit miffed, she coldly looked at Theo, clearly unhappy with Patricia's closeness
with him
Aunt Bluna elegantly said. âMr. Blanchet, I don't recall inviting you to my birthday party. You came
uninvited, is this how the Blanchets usually roll?â
Theo's expression was indifferent as his gaze was fixed on a certain someone
After a while, he turned to Aunt Bluna and calmly said, âApologies for the intrusion, I'm here to find
someone.â
Aunt Bluna frowned, âFind someone? At my birthday party?â
"A womanâ
Aunt Bluna didn't care who Theo was looking for, she was just extremely displeased with his
presence, âMr. Blanchet, you came here uninvited today. Did you abide by the party rules? Are you
accompanied by a lady?â
Aunt Bluna was a control freak, she despised it when people broke her rules.
Theo didn't give Aunt Bluna any slack either, he was about to retort
To defuse the tension, Patricia interjected with a smile, âOf course Theo is here for me. I'm his date
today!â
Aunt Bluna looked at Patricia's expression and was extremely disappointed. She frowned in
annoyance, feeling helpless.
However, Theo didnât accept Patriciaâs explanation, he ignored her and walked straight towards
another woman.
Ellinor took a deep breath and silently prayed. Whether it was good luck or bad luck, there was no
avoiding it now.
She was mentally prepared. No matter what Theo would do, she had to stay calm and respond
appropriately.
Theo fixed his gaze on her and walked straight up to her
