Chapter 195
In the kitchen, the two of them were quietly getting on with their tasks, no longer speaking.
As Theo beat the eggs, his gaze was fixed on the woman beside him, who was diligently at work, never
moving away
Dinner was ready quickly, and Elinor said to Theo. “You go ahead and take the food to the table, I’ll
quickly pop to the loo and then join you!”
Theo picked up the dishes and left the kitchen.
Just then, Devin entered from outside, shocked to see Theo actually doing such chores himself. He
quickly glanced around, noticing there was no housemaid in sight!
Those irresponsible slackers had probably gone off to laze around somewhere while he was away!

stuff!”
Theo glanced at Devin, didn’t hand him anything, went to the table to put down the dishes, sat down,
and said nonchalantly.
“You think I can’t do this stuff, but the mistress of this house can?”
Devin was taken aback, quickly grasping his meaning, and awkwardly explained:
“I’m sorry, Mr. Blanchet, my bad I just went out to water the garden, didn’t know Mrs. Blanchel woke up
and wanted dinner. The maids are a bit unhappy with Mrs. Blanchet because of the whole incident with
Ms Blanchet, so”
With a quiet demeanor, Theo slowly straightened his shirt cuffs and said, ‘If they’re unhappy, fire them
all.”
Theo’s tone was calm, but there was an undeniable authority that was quite intimidating
Devin didn’t dare to defend the maids. He could tell Mr. Blanchet was genuinely furious, not just bluffing
Elinor returned from the bathroom and, noticing Devin, politely asked, “Devin, would you like to join us
for dinner?”
Devin was surprised ‘Mrs. Blanchet, you’re too kind, I’m not hungry! Uh, I still have some stuff to do;
you guys enjoy it.”
With that, Devin left to scold the slacking servants.
Elinor sat down and noticed a box of takeaway barbecue on the table, her eyes lighting up!
It was her favorite barbecue!
She asked in surprise, “Did you get this barbecue?”
Theo was expressionless ‘Collin picked it up on his way”

Theo said. “Is this for you?”
Elinor shot him a glare and said, “You’re eating my cooking; I’m eating your barbecue, it’s a fair trade!”
Theo snorted chuckled and tasted the food she made it was pretty good.
“Did you go to the hospital today?” Theo suddenly asked.
Elinor nodded while munching on her meat. “Yep, my stepmother was injured, Collin probably told you,
right?”
Theo asked again. “Did you get yourself checked out while you were there?”
Elinor frowned in confusion “Why would I check myself? I’m fine!”
Theo said seriously, “Because of what happened last night, you should check if I didn’t control myself
well and hurt you”
Elinor’s face instantly turned red, almost choking on her meat.
