Chapter1068
Moran was a bit lost. He lowered his head and sighed, then looked up at her with a determined gaze. “Ellinor, if I mean, if you ever become single again, then i “Oh, what do you think about Veronica?” Ellinor interrupted him with a laugh as if she had guessed what he was about to say, so she cut him off in time.
Moran was taken aback, “What about her?”
Ellinor smiled, “I mean, what’s your impression of her?”
Moran was a bit surprised, “Uh… pretty good, is there a problem?”
Ellinor smiled, “If you think she’s fine, that’s good. It’s getting pretty late, I won’t keep you any longer. Veronica has arranged for a driver at the door, he’ll take you home.”
The courteous and polite goodbye made Moran feel a bit awkward, it didn’t seem right to continue what he was about to say. He nodded politely and then turned to
leave.
Ellinor watched Moran walk towards the car, then turned around herself, ready to go back into the house.
However, as she turned around, she saw Veronica storming towards her, asking unhappily, “Hey! Ellinor! What the hell did you just say to Moran?”
“Ididn’tsay anything.” Ellinor was a bit tired. She had to get up early the next day to go to Howard Mountain Villa; she didn’t want to argue with her anymore. Veronica wasn’t one to back down easily. She spread her arms and blocked Ellinor’s path, “If you don’t tell me, I’ll call my brother and tell him you’re sneaking around with other men behind his back!”
Ellinor casually crossed her arms, and a hint of a provocative smile appeared on her face. She cocked her chin, “Sure, go ahead and call him. It’s morning in M State right now, your brother should have time to answer.”
Veronica was just trying to intimidate Ellinor and make her spill the beans about her conversation with Moran, but she forgot that Ellinor was not easily scared.
Butnow that she had blurted it out, things were a bit awkward.
Ellinor yawned, “Are you calling or not? If not, I’m going to sleep! Can you move?”
Veronica said angrily, “I’llcall! IfI can’t get it out of you, I’ll let my brother ask you!”
With that, Veronica really pulled out her phone and dialed her brother’s number.
Ellinor squinted slightly while watching Veronica’s phone.
She didn’t expect Veronica to actually call him because this girl, no matter how tough she acted, was always scared of her brother, Theo, and never dared to show off in front of Theo.
But since thecall had been made, she was curious to see if Theo would answer and, if he did, what he would say.
The phone rang for a long time without an answer. Just when Ellinor and Veronica were about to give up hope, the call was picked up.
However, the voice that came from the other end of the phone was not Theo’s but a woman’s sultry, low voice.
“Hello?”
Ellinor’s eyes narrowed as her cold gaze fixed on the phone in surprise.
Veronica wanted to show Ellinor that she hadthe guts to make this call, so she put it on speaker. But when a woman’s voice came from the other end, she was
shocked.
Ohmy god! Did she interrupt her brother’s private time?
“Who are you? Why do you have my brother’s phone?” Veronica asked, a bit annoyed.
