Chapter 211
Ellinor hung her head and heaved a frustrated sigh. “You might not believe me, but I’m not into Theo, and I’ve no interest in marrying him. Hailhel You’re just wasting your time and energy going after me like this!”
Haillie blinked, looking at her in confusion, “What did you just say? You don’t like Thea? I dare you to swear that there’s nothing going on between you two and you don’t like
him!”
Ellinor fell silent
She couldn’t do what Haillie was demanding.
Because her relationship with Theo had become quite intimate due to… that incident.
Of course, she had to do what she did then
But no one would understand her dilemma, and even if she tried to explain, no one would believe that she was just trying to save someone
So, it was best to keep this a secret forever.
Once the three–month collaboration period was over, she would leave the Blanchet family and completely disappear from Theo’s life, proving through her actions that she had no interest in anything related to the Blanchet family.
Seeing Ellinor’s silence, Haillie scoffed. “I knew you wouldn’t dare! How could you say you don’t like Theo and don’t want to marry him! Women like you, once they get their hands on a rich man, they don’t let go so easily!”
Ellinor couldn’t be bothered to argue with her, nor did she feel the need to explain her actions.
Just then, Belinda approached her, leading a horse, “Ellinor, have you picked a horse yet?”
As soon as she finished speaking, she noticed Haillie was there too and frowned
“Haillie, didn’t you hurt your foot? How come you’re riding? Were you pretending to be in pain?”
Haillie didn’t dislike Belinda, so she replied softly. “Belinda, my foot feels much better after resting. I don’t want to miss out on riding with everyone, so I’ll try to hang in there”
Belinda muttered under her breath, “No one wants to ride with you”
Ignoring Haillie, Belinda led the horse towards Ellinor, “Ellinor, have you picked a horse? If so, let’s lead them out.”
Ellinor nodded and pointed at the horse, “I’ve picked. It’s that one”
She hadn’t changed her mind. She’d chosen the white horse with a black spot on its forehead.
Haillie frowned at Ellinor; daring to choose that horse was practically asking for trouble!
Seeing which horse it was, Belinda shook her head, “Ellinor, you can’t ride that horse! A lot of people have been thrown off by it; some even broke their bones. For safety reasons, you better pick another one.”
Even Belinda was saying this, it showed the horse was indeed wild
It was loyal, only recognized its own master, and wouldn’t submit.
She liked that kind of horse
Haillie sneered, then suddenly said, “Belinda, since Ellinor insists on that horse, just let her try! Maybe Ellinor can really tame that wild horse!”
It was her own choice. If she ended up being thrown off, she had no one to blame but herself!
