Chapter 1221
What’s her plan for the future?
Ellinor was somewhat puzzled by his question. She furrowed her brows and ambiguously replied, “Let’s talk about the future in the future. The most important thing right now is to live in the present.”
“You’re really laid-back.” Theo gave a light hum, then became serious. “What I mean is, the child in your belly isn’t just yours. How do you plan to explain this to me?”
As expected, Theo was concerned about the baby in her belly.
Speaking of the child caused Ellinor’s gaze to become very firm. “Mr. Blanchet, in what capacity are you asking me for an explanation?”
Theo’s face darkened slightly, his eyes slowly squinting. “What role do you think I’m playing now?”
Ellinor picked up the glass of water on the table and took a big gulp. “To be honest, I don’t think you hold any role in my life.
We both know very well how the child in my belly came about. It’s an accident, but since he’s already in my belly, I will welcome his arrival.
We two once spent some time together for some reason, but it’s over now. We never got a marriage certificate, so the child in my belly has nothing to do with you!
Are you planning to sue me for custody? Do you think you can win?”
Theo looked at her firm and powerful face with his shiny eyes, and after a while, he gave a slight smile. “Ms. Mendoza, are you questioning the capability of the Blanchet Corporation’s legal team or my personal strength?”
Ellinor was made uneasy by his smile. “I’m not questioning anything; I’m just stating my position! My child is mine, and no one can take him away!” Theo reached out and touched her chin. “You should know that if I want a child, I don’t necessarily have to go through these formalities.” “You…” Ellinor frowned, then shook off his hand. “If you want a child, why not have your wife give birth to one? Why do you have to take mine?”
His wife? Theo paused momentarily. “You mean…”
“Are you two arguing?” Belinda appeared beside the dining table with a worried face.
When she brought Jacob over just now, she saw Theo rudely touching Ellinor’s chin and Ellinor angrily shaking off his hand. The atmosphere between the

Theo did not finish his sentence, turned his head, and coldly said, “No, we’re just having a chat.”
“Oh… really?”
She sat down with Jacob and sat next to Ellinor, leaned in, and whispered. “Aunt, did he just lose his temper at you?”
Ellinor shook her head and reiterated to her. “I’m not your aunt; I’m Ellinor.”
Belinda fell silent.
This was really bad! Was Ellinor serious?
She looked helplessly at Theo. “It was not easy for Ellinor to come back, and you’re losing your temper at her again without even making her feel better? Do you want to break up?”
Theo coldly glanced at Belinda. “Mind your own business.”
Belinda was speechless.
Jacob wasn’t quite sure about the situation, but he knew the atmosphere needed to be lightened, so he said, “Have you guys ordered yet? It’s our first meeting, and I didn’t have time to prepare anything, so let me treat you to this meal! Order whatever you want, don’t be shy with me!”
