Chapter 1834
Even though Ellinor was no longer a little girl, she still blushed a deep crimson and punched him in the chest. “Can’t you have some decency?”
Theo chuckled. “Why bother with decency in front of you?”
Ellinor’s lashes fluttered as she pushed his chest. “Stop messing around! Don’t make me worry about you.”
Theo raised his eyebrow. “Worry about what?”
Ellinor was a bit shy to say it out loud. “Your leg just recovered recently; it’s… it’s better not to do strenuous exercise.”
Theo squinted his narrow, handsome eyes as his slender fingers brushed away the stray hair on her forehead. “Don’t you want me?”
Ellinor, being a normal woman, admitted reluctantly. “Yes, but we have all the time in the world.”
The man stared at her for a while, and in the end, he didn’t tease her any further. He moved over, lay down next to her, and held her small hand as their fingers interlocked tightly.
“Alright, we have all the time in the world.”
At dinner, the Blanchet Villa was filled with long-lost warmth and cheerfulness. Moran, as a future son-in-law, stayed for the family dinner.
No one knew that outside the Blanchet Villa, in a black sedan, was Sophia with a twisted expression.
At night, Theo was busy in his study until late before he returned to his room. Ellinor had already put their four children to bed.
Thankfully, the bed was big enough, or else it would not have accommodated her and the four children.
Theo came to the bedside, bent over to cover the children with the blanket they had kicked off, then sat on the edge of the bed. He watched Ellinor, who was sound asleep, and gently stroked her cheek.
The past three years must have been tough on her.
He had so much to make up for..
Perhaps sensing Theo’s presence, Ellinor furrowed her brow, opened her eyes, and looked at him with a tired gaze. “Have you finished your work?”
Her voice was hoarse. She sounded like a child who had just woken up. She was so adorable.
Theo couldn’t resist pinching her cheek. “Yes. Go back to sleep.”
Ellinor seemed a bit reluctant. She reached out her arms and wrapped them around the man’s neck. “The children still need me, so can you sleep in the study tonight?”
She was trying to appease him.
Even if the man was possessive, he wouldn’t compete for attention with his own children.
He leaned down and gave her a light peck on the lips, then sighed with feigned regret. “We barely had any alone time, and now we have children. What should we do?”
Ellinor was amused. “Whose fault is that?”
Theo kissed her again. “Mine, mine. I’ll go sleep in the study, okay?”
Ellinor also kissed him on the cheek. “Good.boy! Now go!”
Even if Theo was reluctant, he let her go. He personally covered her with the blanket, said goodnight, and then quietly left the room, closing the door behind him.
The next day, the sun was shining brightly.
When Ellinor woke up, she was alone in bed. The children were nowhere to be seen.
She rubbed her eyes, looked at the wall clock, and realized it was already 10 in the morning.
Why didn’t anyone wake her up?
She quickly got up, freshened up, and changed her clothes.
When she went downstairs, she saw through the windows that Veronica was out in the yard, flying kites with the kids and the housekeeper.
After seeing the children play while still being well-behaved, Ellinor felt relieved.
“Ellinor, you’re awake!”
