Ellinor nodded, “Yeah, thanks”

She, as usual, slowly climbed up the stairs to her room. Halfway up, she paused on the stairs, turning

around to ask, “Oh, by the way, Devin, did you receive the stuff I had sent over this morning?”

She had ordered the engagement gifts that she got from the Mendoza family to be sent back via local

express delivery. They should have arrived at the Blanchet villa by

Devin said, “Got them, I’ve put them into the storage room for safe keeping Want to take a look,

Ellinor?!

Ellinor waved her hand lightly. “No need, just remember to tell Mr. Blanchet when he comes back.”

Devin replied, “Sure thing. Ellinor”

After giving her instructions, Ellinor continued to go upstairs.

The engagement gifts from the Blanchet family were quite valuable She needed to return them to the

Blanchet family, so she didn’t owe them anything.

Devin watched Ellinor’s retreating figure with a puzzled look. Something seemed off, but he couldn’t

quite put his finger on it.

Not being able to figure it out, Devin shrugged it off and went to instruct the kitchen staff to prepare a

light lunch for Ellinor.

Before Mr. Blanchet left, he specifically instructed them about Ellinor’s diet. Ellinor had allergies, so all

allergens must be completely avoided. Devin had to personally check the ingredients every day.

After returning to her room, Ellinor took a bath, changed into her home clothes, ate the lunch brought in

by the maid, and then went to bed.

Perhaps it was because she was pregnant that she always felt very tired. Lying in bed, she finally felt

more relaxed. She had gotten used to sleeping on this big bed in Theo’s room recently and now she

felt somewhat reluctant to leave it.

Eventually, with her thoughts in a jumble, Ellinor drifted off to sleep.

Late at night, the weather turned cold and windy.

The wind woke up Devin, who immediately ordered the servants to check all the doors and windows to

ensure they were all closed properly. They couldn’t let dust or cold air blow in and disturb Ellinor’s

sleep.

Suddenly, a car’s headlights shone into the yard, and the sound of the engine got closer and closer.

Looking outside, it was Mr. Blanchet’s car! It was already past midnight. Why was Mr. Blanchet back at

this time?

A few minutes later, the man came in, looking travel-worn.

Devin had been waiting at the door, “Mr. Blanchet, you’re back!”

Theo took off his coat, which was chilly from the cold air outside, and handed it to a servant nearby.

“Mm, where is she?”

Devin naturally knew who Mr. Blanchet was asking about, “At this time, Ellinor should be sound

asleep.”

Theo hummed lightly, bypassed the approaching servants, and headed straight upstairs.

After receiving Ellinor’s call during the day, he had been thinking about her. He couldn’t help but want to

rush back to see her.

Ellinor rarely admitted that she missed him. That simple “Yes” was like a hook in his heart, making him

itch with impatience.

Theo quickly climbed up the stairs, approaching her room, thinking she was asleep, he intentionally

lightened his steps.

He tested the doorknob, and to his surprise, the door wasn’t locked.

She didn’t lock the door when he was out?

Theo rubbed his forehead, finding it both amusing and exasperating. He opened the door and stepped

in quietly. The room was dark, the sky outside was cloudy and windy, there was no moonlight, and

everything was blurred.

“Ellinor, I’m back.”

He sat on the edge of the bed, his gaze falling on her usual sleeping spot, his voice low and soft.

However, there was no response.

Ellinor must have been in a deep sleep.
