Chapter 1205
She started to wonder if all of that was real or if it was just her imagination playing tricks on her.
But the pain coursing through her body assured her that this was no dream or illusion.
Every bit of it was real.
Theo had really found her!
But he didn’t say a word and left just like that.
That was not like Theo at all. Why didn’t he blow his top when he found her?
He didn’t take her away either; he just knocked, took one look at her, and left?
It was so puzzling!
Ellinor snapped back to reality when Bartlett’s phone rang again.
She answered the call in a daze.
Bartlett’s gentle voice came through. “Ellinor, I forgot my phone; I will send someone to get it tomorrow.”
“Okay, got it.” Ellinor replied, then hung up.
Her mind was in chaos; this kind of confusion was like nothing she’d ever felt!
What was Theo trying to say with his actions?
She should be relieved that Theo didn’t blow his top and didn’t do anything to her. He didn’t even take her back to the Blanchet Villa.
But why was there this suffocating feeling in her chest?
The servants didn’t know what had happened; they were just drawn by the noise of the wind.
A servant hurried over to close the door after noticing that Ellinor was standing at the door with her hair in a mess from the wind.
“Ms. Mendoza, it’s windy outside! You might catch a cold! You should go rest; we’ll call you when dinner’s ready.”
Ellinor nodded numbly, then headed back to her room.
Although she was tired, she tossed and turned, unable to sleep.
Her mind was filled with the image of Theo standing at the door, looking at her.
There seemed to be a slight smile on his face, but there was no warmth in it, just sarcasm.
What did that mean?
Ellinor was so frustrated that she picked up the phone and called Ida.
This was the first time she’d called Ida in six months. They usually texted because she was afraid of being found by the Blanchet family.
But now that Theo had found her and knew where she was, she didn’t need to hide so carefully anymore.
The phone rang for a while before it was picked up.
“Hello? Boss…”
Ida’s voice sounded a bit hoarse, as if she weren’t well.
Ellinor asked with concern, “What’s wrong? Why is your voice hoarse?”
Ida’s voice sounded even stranger. “Nothing! Boss, what’s up? I…”
Ellinor was on high alert. “Where are you? What’s with your voice? Is someone giving you trouble?”
Her gut told her that maybe Theo had sent someone to give Ida and Chase a hard time since he didn’t do anything to her just now, which was so not like him. He must be taking it out on her friends!
Based on Theo’s style, he wouldn’t just do nothing!
“Boss…”
