Chapter 1241
She turned her head, looked at Theo’s angry face, and cautiously asked, “What will you do if Ellinor really doesn’t care about you anymore?”
Theo’s jaw tightened; he didn’t say a word and just started the car.
After seeing his reaction, Sophia figured that there might be no chance left between him and Ellinor, the only link left between them would be the child in Ellinor’s belly.
So she let out a sigh of concern. “Theo, if it’s really not working out, don’t force it! From today’s interaction, I also felt that Ellinor is a bit hard-headed.
I’m not saying Ellinor is bad, it’s just that she doesn’t seem right for you. You guys being together might just wear each other out.”
After taking a turn, Theo replied, in his low voice. “She’s still young and a bit childish, so I’ll apologize on her behalf for today. If today’s incident has hurt you, I’ll have someone take you to a plastic surgery hospital and provide you with ample compensation.”
Sophia was taken aback. “Theo, what are you talking about compensation for? We’ve been friends for years; it doesn’t have to be like this! And I didn’t think much of this little injury on my forehead.”
Theo gave her a brief acknowledgment and just focused on driving, not saying much else.
But Sophia didn’t plan on stopping there; she tentatively asked, “Theo, if you think Ellinor doesn’t care about you anymore, why are you still apologizing for her?” Sophia had known this man for over a decade, and she had never seen him apologize before.
Now he apologized for another woman?
This shocked Sophia.
Without thinking too much, Theo just sighed and said, “Ellinor is the wife I chose; if I don’t take responsibility for the problems she causes, who will?” Sophia was very surprised, feeling both envy and a bit of jealousy.
Even under these circumstances, Theo still considered himself Ellinor’s husband?
Sophia managed a weak smile. “Ah! Ellinor is really lucky to have a husband like you. Theo, you’re so good to her; she shouldn’t leave you!”
Theo let out a cold laugh. “She’s too heartless.”
Theo dropped Sophia back at her hotel, turned down her invitation to come up for a while, and drove off straight away.
In the afternoon, Belinda rummaged through all the food in the fridge and started to prepare dinner.
Since she was not leaving today, she decided to cook something nice for the pregnant Ellinor.
Chase followed her, grinning as he watched her in the kitchen.
“Need a hand?”
Belinda didn’t really want Chase to bother her here because she got nervous with Chase around.
But she knew there was no way she could get Chase to leave. He wouldn’t listen to her.
So it was best to just try and ignore him.
“I don’t need any help; just don’t mess things up!”
Although Chase was not perfect, he did understand some basic etiquette. He knew leaving a guest to cook alone was impolite. So he rolled up his sleeves and went over to the sink. “I’m not much of a cook, so I can only help you wash the veggies.”
Belinda gave him a surprised look and then nodded. She stepped back a bit, leaving the task of washing the vegetables to Chase while she went to prepare other things.
Actually, Belinda wasn’t much of a cook either. She only signed up for a cooking class to impress Chase.
