Chapter 498
Theo’s sudden appearance took everyone aback, and they started whispering among themselves
“Holy cow! Am I seeing things? Did Theo really show up at the Howard family’s bash?”
“Mr. Blanchet must be here for Ms. Howard, right? Breaking traditions to woo the girl he’s head over heels in love with, who belongs to a family he’s supposed to be feuding with Talk about making a grand gesture!”
1 heard that despite the opposition from his own family, Mr. Blanchet is hell bent on getting engaged to Ms. Howard
“Regardless of everything else, Theo is seriously hot! I’m green with envy. Ms. Howard is one lucky gal; not only does she have Balfour, who adores her, but she’s also got this power player as her fiancé
Theo, with his head down, responded to Patricia, “Mm-hmm”
Though his response was brief, it left tons of room for speculation
Theo’s deep and lazy voice seemed to make their relationship crystal clear to the onlookers.
It was as if Theo and Patricia had become a cozy couple who didn’t need much verbal communication.
However, seeing Patricia and Theo standing together, Balfour furrowed his brows.
Theos presence was definitely not expected
Subsequently, Balfour subconsciously glanced at Ellinor’s reaction.
Ellinor was emotionless as usual, her face didn’t portray any particular emotion.
Aunt Bluna seemed a bit miffed, she coldly looked at Theo, clearly unhappy with Patricia’s closeness with him.
Aunt Bluna elegantly said. “Mr. Blanchet, I don’t recall inviting you to my birthday party. You came uninvited, is this how the Blanchets usually roll?”
Theo’s expression was indifferent as his gaze was fixed on a certain someone
After a while, he turned to Aunt Bluna and calmly said, ‘Apologies for the intrusion, I’m here to find someone.”
Aunt Bluna frowned, “Find someone? At my birthday party?”
“A woman’
Aunt Bluna didn’t care who Theo was looking for, she was just extremely displeased with his presence, “Mr. Blanchet, you came here uninvited today. Did you abide by the party rules? Are you accompanied by a lady?”
Aunt Bluna was a control freak, she despised it when people broke her rules.
Theo didn’t give Aunt Bluna any slack either, he was about to retort
To defuse the tension, Patricia interjected with a smile, “Of course Theo is here for me. I’m his date today!”
Aunt Bluna looked at Patricia’s expression and was extremely disappointed. She frowned in annoyance, feeling helpless.
However, Theo didn’t accept Patricia’s explanation, he ignored her and walked straight towards another woman.
Ellinor took a deep breath and silently prayed. Whether it was good luck or bad luck, there was no avoiding it now.
She was mentally prepared. No matter what Theo would do, she had to stay calm and respond appropriately.
Theo fixed his gaze on her and walked straight up to her
