Chapter 557
Theo towered over her, giving her a cold stare. “At the hospital, I told you to leave, but you didn’t. At the
hotel entrance, I told you to get in the car, but you didn’t either. I saved you, yet you wanna hit me? If
those guys had hurt you just now, you might not realize until your next life that some things shouldn’t be
messed around with!”
L
1 didn’t mean to hit you. I didn’t know the person coming was you!” Ellinor frowned, suddenly realizing
something wasn’t right. “Wait, what did you mean by what you said just now? It seems like you knew
someone was going to make a move on me.”
Theo didn’t answer, seeming too lazy to bother explaining. He turned around and slowly walked out of
the narrow alley.
Ellinor, not getting an answer, quickly followed him. “Do you know who ordered those men?”
Yep.”
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtThe man lit a cigarette, not even bothering to look at her.
“Tell me, who was it?”
Ellinor wanted to know who held such malice toward her and even wanted to take her life.
“Your boss.”
Theo’s voice was flat.
Ellinor stopped in her tracks, surprised and puzzled. “You mean… Balfour? He sent someone to kill
me? Why?”
Theo was a bit ahead, took a puff of his cigarette, and said, “Patricia was bullied by two female
classmates in middle school. Those two girls disappeared later, and they’ve been missing ever since.”
Ellinor was stunned.
So what Theo meant was that Balfour had those girls who bullied his sister Patricia disposed of in
retaliation?
So, at the hospital, Theo had already seen Balfour’s murderous intent and called her away, creating a
diversion for her to make an escape.
At the hotel entrance, he had also predicted what might happen to her on the road, so he told her to get
in the car.
And she didn’t cooperate at all.
“Is Mr. Howard really that ruthless?”
Ellinor didn’t want to believe that Balfour was such a ruthless person. In a way, she and Balfour were
relatives.
Theo gave her a sideways glance. “You thought Balfour was a good guy?”
Ellinor was silent. She didn’t think Balfour was a good guy, but she also didn’t expect Balfour to be so
extreme, willing to kill her to avenge his sister
Patricia
“And Bartlett, stay away from him too!” Theo coldly added.
What did this have to do with Bartlett? Ellinor was stunned and frowned. “Mr. Blanchet, do you think
there are no good people in this world except for
you?”
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmTheo glanced at her coldly, his voice indifferent and deep. I’m not a good person either.”
Ellinor chuckled lightly. “So you know!”
Theo held a cigarette in his fingers as smoke swirled around him. He turned his head and squinted at
her. “Whether I’m good or not depends on who I’m dealing with.”
Ellinor was still smiling, but Theo’s affectionate gaze made her feel uneasy. Her smile froze on her face.
Theo didn’t expect her to understand his words. He sneered and then continued to look ahead,
smoking his cigarette.
Ellinor watched him smoke. Although he looked handsome, she still frowned. “Mr. Blanchet, could you
smoke less? You’ve already had 16 today!”
Theo paused for a moment, then turned to look at her, his eyes full of meaning. “What did you say?”
Ellinor suddenly realized what she said was a bit inappropriate and quickly turned her head,…..I didn’t
say anything!”
She quickened her pate, trying to keep a certain distance from him.
But then Theo raised his arm to block her path, his eyes narrowed. He asked again, “Ms. Mendoza, are
you counting my cigarettes because you care
about me?”
