Chapter 141

Burns were definitely more unbearable than other injuries. It was like a relentless burning sensation

that kept spreading, making the pain impossible to ignore.

Ellinor nodded, “When I was a kid growing up in the countryside, I had to do everything myself, so at

first, I was always getting burns. They hurt so bad I couldn’t sleep all night!*

Theo asked anxiously. “How old were you when you started working?”

Ellinor replied casually, “I can’t remember!”

She didn’t want to talk much about her childhood. When it slipped out, she didn’t want to keep talking.

The man’s other hand unconsciously covered her head, petting her like a small animal, “Did you have a

hard time when you were little?”

“It was okay!”

Ellinor didn’t like the feeling of being pitied. So she disdainfully brushed away the man’s hand on her

head and explained seriously, “You probably don’t understand my family I think it’s necessary to tell

you. People from the Mendoza family are very greedy if they find out about our relationship, it would

not only bring trouble to me but also unnecessary complications for you. I guess you don’t like trouble,

right? So, I hope you can cooperate with me and keep our relationship as discreet as possible,

avoiding others from finding out about it!”

Theo smelled the unpleasant odor of the ointment, his mood not good, “In the Mendoza family, does

anyone dare to bully you? If necessary, I can…”

“No need!” Ellinor shook her head, interrupting the man, “I can deal with my own family issues! And I

think, we don’t need to do anything extra for each other. After all, we will end our relationship in three

months By then, we can pretend to be strangers who don’t even have to greet each other when we

meet!”

The warmth in Theo’s eyes instantly disappeared, replaced by coldness. She kept mentioning the end

of their three–month contract. How much was she looking forward to the end of this relationship?

After breaking up, they should be strangers who didn’t even greet each other when they met? Why

didn’t she want to get close to him?

Theo’s eyebrows furrowed, he withdrew his hand indifferently. “You’re overthinking. I don’t have time to

deal with your family affairs.”

Ellinor didn’t respond, then handed him the ointment with the lid screwed back on, “Here, keep this

burn cream. Remember to apply it twice a day, it should be good in about a week!”

With a stem expression, Theo did not accept it, so Ellinor had to lean over and stuff it into his suit

pocket.

After that, they were silent all the way until they reached home. They got out of the car and went to

their respective rooms.

Marissa was not there, so they didn’t have to pretend to be a loving couple in the same room for now.

Theo slept in the study, and Ellinor went back to her own bedroom.

That night, someone had sweet dreams in the bedroom, while someone else smoked all night in the

study.

Early the next morning, Ellinor was woken up by the ring of the phone.

She groggily reached for the phone on the bedside table and answered it. Her father, Arnold

Mendoza’s voice roared on the other end of the line.

“Ellinor!”

Ellinor was still sleepy. “Dad, what did I do now?”

Arnold yelled, “What did you do? You tell me what you did! You ruined your sister’s new movie! Get

back here right now!”

She didn’t ask much, just said calmly, “Okay, I’m on my way”

After hanging up the phone, Ellinor sat up and rubbed her eyes to wake up. She didn’t need to guess to

know what had happened. Sheila must have run home to tattle again.
