Chapter 271
“Yesterday, I chatted with a friend, and it got pretty late, so I crashed there.”
Theo leaned in closer, “What friend? A guy or a girl? What’s their name? Where do they live?
His rapid fire questions left Ellinor feeling irritated, and she finally lost it
“Mr. Blanchet, can’t I have my own friends? Do I have no privacy here? Do I need to report every little
thing to you? Is there any difference between being here and being in
prison?”
Theo paused slightly, then squinted at her defiant expression and actually burst out laughing his fatique
instantly halved.
She seemed pretty spinted but still had the energy to argue
Theo stared at her in silence for a while, not arguing back, but asked in a low voice, “Where’s your
phone? Even if you stayed over at a friend’s, couldn’t you have called me?”

phone. I don’t know where I dropped it last night, I will get you a new one.”
She probably lost it during the clash with that internet star last night. She didn’t realize it until she took a
cab in the morning, luckily, she had cash on her.
Theo huffed softly pulled out the phone from his coat pocket, holding it up to her face with his long
fingers; he lightly tapped her forehead with it, “Always losing stuff, why don’t you lose your head as
well?”
Ellinor blinked in surprise, took the phone, and confirmed it was the one she had lost!
She looked up in surprise, asking curiously: “What’s going on? How did you get this phone?”
Theo answered succinctly. “Someone found it by the Trent River, handed it over to the police, and they
returned it to its original owner
I see! Ellinor nodded, relieved, “Thank god it wasn’t lost! Otherwise, I’d be worried, your bank card with
large amounts is linked to this phone, if someone had swiped it, couldn’t afford to pay it back!”
She rambled on..
“Ellinor”
Theo suddenly called her name.
“Hmm?” Ellinor looked up instinctively, waiting for him to continue, but was momentarily stunned by the
depth of his gaze.
Theo looked at her intensely, his deep voice told her, “I have no intention of imprisoning you, so you
don’t need to be so wary of me.”
Ellinor paused
Theo was serious, but his tone was as gentle as possible, he continued. “You can have your privacy,
secrets you don’t want me to know about, and of course your own friends, but you absolutely cannot
disappear without a word like yesterday, what if something bad happened?”
Saying this, his rough hand stroked her face, his long fingers gently traced her delicate cheek as if
holding a treasured possession, unwilling to let go.

He addressed her grievances, didn’t disregard her feelings, and gave her a specific answer and a clear
stance.
This man’s behavior was unpredictable and vague, making Ellinor very confused. His words seemed
like a reprimand but also like a patient explanation….
Was Theo too tired?
Was he so tired that he was getting confused?
Theo gazed at Ellinor’s small and delicate face, from her eyebrows to her nose and then to her
intelligent and cute little mouth….
He hadn’t seen her for a week.
When he missed her, he found solace in lighting a cigarette and quietly contemplating. It wasn’t too
unbearable for him to endure. But when he came into contact with her, he realized his intense longing
was uncontrollable, he couldn’t even wait a second!
Theo gently lifted her face, almost greedily kissing her….
