Chapter 275
Propped up in her hospital bed, she turned to Belinda “Belinda, why are you here?
Belinda put down her cup and replied, “Uncle called me up and asked me to get a set of clean and comfy undies for a girl and bring them to the hospital. So here I am”
Undies?
Embarrassment washed over Ellinor as she glanced down at herself.
She remembered that before she blacked out, Theo had soaked her to the skin in the bathroom!
Even though she was now dressed in hospital clothes, her undies were indeed dry, obviously changed.
“Who changed my undies?” She asked, frowning
Belinda answered, “Ellinor, I did. I helped you out of your wet clothes, too!”
Relief flooded Ellinor, “Oh, good!”
Belinda added. “But Uncle was there too, helping out. I wouldn’t have been able to lift you and dress you at the same time!”
Ellinor’s embarrassment returned, “Was he watching the whole time?”
Belinda waved her off, “No! He wanted to, but I made him turn around. You guys might be married, but got to keep some mystery, right? Otherwise, it’s no fun!”
Ellinor let out a small laugh. That’s Belinda for you. Her goofiness could sometimes be a good thing.
Belinda let out a worried sigh as she glanced at Ellinor’s swollen hand. “Ellinor, what caused your allergy to become so severe this time? What did you come into contact
with?”
Ellinor had suspected an allergic reaction when she woke up.
“I’m not sure, probably came into contact with something I’m allergic to ”
She knew she strongly reacted to silver, everything else was minor
Last time at the horse ranch, a small silver earring instantly made her palm swell up.
This time, she must’ve come into contact with much silver for the severe reaction.
She couldn’t recall touching any silver objects. After leaving Paradise Harbor, she took a cab to the Blanchet household. Once in her room, she refrained from touching anything
Could there have been some hidden silver items in the cab that she accidentally touched?
“Ellinor, you gotta be more careful with your allergy triggers in the future, no more carelessness! When I arrived, you were so pale and unconscious, scared the life out of me and the boss!”
“I’ll be careful from now on, Ellinor promised, then looked around
Belinda seemed to have guessed something. “Ellinor, are you looking for him?”
Ellinor didn’t deny. “Where is he?”
Truth be told, she wasn’t looking for Theo, just curious. Theo was the one who brought her to the hospital; where was he?
Did he really just leave her with Belinda and take off?
Belinda paused, then told her the truth, ‘Patricia had a car accident on the way home and was brought to this hospital too. He just got a call from Byran Howard and went to
see his sister.”
“Oh, I see,” Ellinor responded lightly, her gaze dimming
Belinda watched Ellinor her eyes flickering with unspoken words. “Are you hungry? Want something to eat? I can get someone to buy it.”
“No need, I’m not hungry Ellinor shook her head.
Belinda seemed uneasy. “Don’t be mad, he’ll be back soon.”
Ellinor chuckled, “I’m not mad
When you’re sick, your spirit gets fragile and sensitive.
She wasn’t mad, she just wanted to go home, to the home she shared with Ida and Chase, cuddle their cat on the couch, listen to her favorite classical music, and do nothing
Suddenly, someone pushed the door open.
It was Theo’s towering figure
And behind him, Patricia was in a patient gown
You’re back!”
