Chapter 1190
Ida’s gaze went deep, and then she cracked a faint smile. “Sure, she did, but so what?”
Sophia, resting her chin in her hand and batting her eyelashes flirtatiously, said, “So Ellinor was trash talking Mr. Blanchet, huh? I wanna hear what she said. I bet we’re on the same page!”
Ida chuckled lightly “Ms. Sophia, we aren’t close enough to be chatting about this.”
Sophia shrugged boredly, locking a bit bummed because she didn’t get an answer, but she didn’t push further
Then Theo piped up. “What did she say about me?”
Ida looked surprised. Her gaze shifted up to Theo as a cold flash appeared behind her glasses while she smiled. “Mr. Blanchet, you shouldn’t give a hoot about whatever she said now, right?”
Theo was running out of patience. “What did she say about me?!”
Ida didn’t answer directly: she just smirked. “She didn’t say anything. I was just pulling Ms. Sophia’s leg. Mr. Blanchet. Don’t sweat it!”
Theo looked pissed off, anger was flashing in his eyes.
Ida deliberately avoided his gaze and lowered her head to continue eating.
Byran felt the tension in the air and Theo’s discontent with Ida. To protect his girlfriend, he quickly changed the subject. “Cough, cough! Theo, still no word from Ellinor?”
“No.” Theo replied coldly. His gaze was deep, and his chest was full of irritation
Byran was also cunous about where the hell Ellinor was. He knew that his brother, Balfour, was looking for her everywhere, and he would occasionally ask Quinton for any leads, but he would always come up empty.
“Theo, don’t worry. Maybe Ellinor just threw a tantrum and went out to play. She’ll come back when she’s had her fill.”
Theo stood up Tm off to the restroom, you guys continue eating
Byran also stood up “Theo, I need to use the restroom too. Let’s go together!”
Theo glanced at him, didn’t say anything, and let him follow.
When the two men left, Sophia started on her topic again.
“Ms. Gipson, if I’m guessing right, Ellinor probably left because she was upset to find out that Theo and I got marned, right?”
Ida wasn’t planning on indulging her anymore, but when she heard this, she couldn’t help but look up in surprise.
Sophia was all smiles, looking very relaxed and natural. “If that’s the reason she’s not coming back, then what a pity!”
Ida raised an eyebrow, feeling more and more baffled by this woman’s behavior ‘You actually want her back? You don’t mind other women hanging around your husband?”
Sophia laughed. “What’s there to mind? And even if I do, what’s the point? All men are the same; they love to have their options open! A man like Theo, who’s got both looks and power, will obviously have a lot of women who want to get close to him. If I were to fret over every woman who came near him, wouldn’t I be worn out? I don’t need to spend all my time watching a man’s life; that’s boring”
Ida replied “Ms Sophia, you sure have a pretty open mind.”
Sophia smiled. “Yes, I’m very open-minded, I don’t care what he does with other women, as long as he comes home on time.
By the way, Ms. Gipson, if you happen to see Ellinor, could you pass a message to her for me? Just tell her I’d really like to meet her, I wouldn’t mind her presence, and I believe we could definitely be good friends!”
Ida frowned. She had to admit that she had never met a woman like Sophia before
