Chapter 156
Theo didn’t seem to have any interest in food, but he didn’t outright refuse either.
Sheila didn’t care about Theo’s indifference On the contrary, she was excited to share a meal with a man of Theo’s status.
“Let’s go to Charm Tower then, the food there is awesome!”
Charm Tower was the most famous upscale restaurant in Greenhaven. The prices were sky high, and Sheila wouldn’t usually splurge if it wasn’t to treat someone like Theo.
Theo just gave a nonchalant nod and turned to walk towards the lobby door.
Sheila followed closely, turning her head to shout at Ellinor, “Hurry up! You don’t want Mr. Blanchet to wait, do you?”
Ellinor frowned in annoyance
Since they had been picked up by Chase and didn’t have a car, they had to ride in Theo’s car to the restaurant.
Sheila was naturally thrilled to be able to ride in Mr. Blanchet’s luxury car
Sheila was excited when she saw the secretary walk up to open the back door of the top–end luxury car, and Theo just stood aside, not getting in, as if he was waiting for something She approached and said, “Mr. Blanchet, why don’t you get in first?”
Theo gave her a glance and said lightly. “You first.”
Sheila’s heart raced. She was very happy. It seemed that Mr. Blanchet was indeed waiting for her to get in first!
Mr. Blanchet was such a gentleman. Not every woman got this kind of attention from a man as cold as him. But he was willing to wait for her to get in the car first. What did that mean?
It meant Mr. Blanchet had feelings for her too!
“Thank you, Mr. Blanchet Sheila accepted Mr. Blanchet’s kindness with a smile, then got into the car, looking forward to Mr. Blanchet sitting next to her.
But Theo didn’t immediately get in the car. Instead, he turned to look at Ellinor, who was standing still. He frowned and said, “Get in.“/
His tone was like a parent scolding a child.
Ellinor muttered, “Alright…”
After Ellinor got into the car and settled down. Theo finally got in.
Sheila had expected to sit next to Mr. Blanchet but was disappointed. She was not happy.
As she looked at Ellinor, who sat in the middle, her mood became more and more irritated. But she didn’t want to make a scene, so she secretly pinched Ellinor from
behind
Ellinor was completely unprepared and yelped in pain, instinctively moving to the side and accidentally bumping into Theo’s chest
Theo lifted his arm to steady her shoulder. Looking at her deeply, he asked in a low voice, “What’s wrong?”
Ellinor quickly reacted and immediately tried to move away, but Theo held her shoulder tightly.
What is this guy trying to do? Let go! Haven’t we agreed to pretend we don’t know each other in front of Sheila?
Sheila grew even more upset when she saw Ellinor so close to Theo. She reminded her with a fake smile, “Ellinor, what are you doing? You’re crowding Mr. Blanchet, move over here a bit
Ellinor glanced at Sheila, then said to Theo, “I’m sorry, Mr. Blanchet. I didn’t mean to bump into you…”
As she spoke, she gave Theo a look, reminding him not to forget his promise to her
Theo was silent for two seconds, then finally let go of her shoulder.
Ellinor immediately returned to her original position, rubbing her shoulder that he had gripped so tightly.
Theo quietly observed her small movements
