Chapter 154
Chase let out a helpless sigh “Simple She climbed out of the office window and back in through the bathroom window”
Ida was shocked, “But we’re on the 30th floor
Chase just shrugged “Remember my climbing gear in the break room? Came in handy! Plus, you know how agile she is, this was a piece of cake for her
Ida took off her glasses and rubbed her forehead, “What about the person inside?”
“That’s your secretary She dressed up, put on the mask, and pretended to be busy”
Ellinor is always so quick–witted”
Chase squinted, deep in thought. “Why do you think she’s so against Theo finding out she’s Moon?*
Ida glanced at him, reminding him. “She must have her reasons, let’s not jump to conclusions.”
Chase stroked his chin, “I don’t buy that Theo has no feelings for her. I’ll test him out.”
Ida protested. What are you testing? Don’t get Ellinor angry!”
“You just wait and see. I’ll bring you good news!” Chase waved and strode off towards the elevator.
Inside the slowly descending elevator.
“Had lunch yet?”
Theo’s deep voice echoed in the enclosed space, making the atmosphere a bit tense.
Sheila blushed when she heard that, and she shyly replied. “Not yet! Have you, Mr. Blanchet?”
Theo’s eyes were cold, it was hard to tell who he was talking to
Since it was just them, Theo’s secretary, and her assistant Ellinor in the lift, Sheila naturally assumed Mr. Blanchet was asking her.
But Theo didn’t immediately respond to her
Sheila decided to take the initiative. “If you haven’t eaten either, Mr. Blanchet, why don’t I treat you to lunch? As an apology for my assistant scalding you last night!”
Theo still didn’t answer immediately but glanced towards Ellinor, who was standing in the corner of the elevator.
Ellinor was leisurely checking her phone and wasn’t even locking up.
After a while, Theo finally said slowly “Sure.”
Sheila was over the moon when she heard Theo accept her invitation. Awesomel Mr. Blanchet agreed to have lunch with her!
This must mean Mr. Blanchet had some feelings for her, right? Otherwise, he wouldn’t have accepted.
Just then, Ellinor looked up “Sheila, can i take a break later? I’m a bit tired, I want to go home and rest.”
Sheila, feeling irritated at Ellinor’s interruption, immediately agreed without thinking, “Sure, go home and rest. You can have the afternoon off.”
Ellinor, who had predicted this response, nodded without surprise, “Thank you.”
Theo was upset, Ellinor clearly didn’t want to have lunch with him.
“Weren’t you supposed to apologize? Why isn’t Ellinor coming?”
Sheila was taken aback. While flustered, she quickly explained. ‘Mr. Blanchet, my assistant wants to rest at home, I don’t think we need to force her. I can apologize on her behalf…
Theo retorted, “It seems you’re not sincere about apologizing, never mind then.”
Sheila panicked, “No, no! I am sincere!”
With that, she pulled Ellinor over. “Ellinor, you were the one who scalded Mr. Blanchet yesterday, it’s your responsibility! So, you have to apologize to Mr. Blanchet over lunch, you can rest after that!
Ellinor frowned and reluctantly agreed Alright then
