Chapter 327

Ellinor picked a fast food joint nearby because she was starving and wanted to wolf down some food as

soon as possible. Theo thought the grub was nothing but junk, but he went along with her, figuring she

needed something in her belly pronto Ellinor ordered a combo meal and added a few more a la carte

items. Theo didn’l eal, he just picked up the lab.

While she was chowing down, Theo just sat across from her, watching her in silence.

When Ellinor was almost done with her meal, she sipped on her soda through a straw and asked:

*Theo, when you decided to marry me, was it because you saw that I was capable, that I could take

care of myself and wouldn’t put you in a tight spot easily, right?”

Theo was taken aback; she had nailed why he’d originally chosen her.

“Indeed, I didn’t want innocent people to get dragged into this. My original choice couldn’t make it

because of a flight delay due to weather. You, on the other hand, showed guts and practical skills, so I

thought you were the perfect fit. Don’t worry, though, I will protect

you.”

Ellinor wasn’t worried, just curious.

“You’re chattier than usual today, are you parched?”

With that, she offered her soda to Theo….

Theo was surprised. She was offering him a sip of her soda! He took the straw and drank.

Ellinor retrieved her soda and continued drinking, acting as if nothing was amiss.

Theo felt a warm glow. Looking at her, he asked, “Do you not dislike me anymore?”

“Disliking you won’t do any good, like you said, we’re already entwined!”

“So would you give me a chance, can we start over?”

“Let’s give it a shot!” Ellinor raised her eyebrows.

“Give it a shot?”

*See if we can really get used to each other. If we can, we stick together, if we can’t, we stick to the

original plan and call it quits when time’s up! Theo, some things seem simple when you think about it,

but when you actually do it, it’s a whole different ball game. We grew up in different worlds, there’s a

generation gap, we might not be the perfect match! So let’s leave some wiggle room, save ourselves

from awkwardness later!”

Theo reached out and playfully pinched her chin, “So during this trial period, can I kiss you?”

“Cough, cough, that depends on my mood!” Ellinor blushed.

“How’s your mood now?”

“So–so.”

“Why so–so?”

Ellinor huffed, “I just got out of the police station in handcuffs, would you be in a good mood if you were

me?”

Hearing this, Theo felt a pang of guilt. He took her hand and checked her wrists to make sure the

handcuffs hadn’t left a mark. Seeing her allergic reaction had completely subsided, he was relieved.

At that moment, Theo’s phone rang.

He glanced at it, it was a call from Collin.

After picking up the call and listening for a few seconds, his face changed dramatically, “When did this

happen?”

Ellinor noticed his strange reaction and looked at him with concern.

Theo quickly stood up and said to her, “I need to step out to take this call, I’ll be right back. You stay

here, don’t wander off, eat some

more.”

Ellinor nodded, but she was even more curious about what had happened on the other end of the

phone call, was Patricia feeling unwell again?

With Theo gone to take the call, Ellinor sipped her soda and watched the street scene outside the

window, feeling bored.

Just then, a couple walked by her, discussing the latest news…

“I can’t believe there are girls like her in our society! So young, instead of looking for a decent job, she

tricks people with her elderly

family member!”

“That’s right! They don’t have to worry about being punished for making such improper money!”

“Wait a minute! Look at that person… it’s her, right?”

“Yes, that’s her!”

“Everyone, look! The female scammer that’s trending online is right here!”

Before Ellinor could even react, she was surrounded by a crowd of people in the restaurant. They all

took out their phones and started taking pictures of her….
