Chapter 519
Boys were usually not as neat as girls, so she and Ida insisted that his stuff should be kept in his room so he could not mess up the overall aesthetics of the living room. Those random figurines he bought, all kinds of sports equipment, and his shoes all had to be put into the shoe cabinet as soon as he stepped in. When leaving, even his slippers would be put away.
Chase gradually got used to it as he grew up under the watchful eyes of these two girls and he didn’t have any objections.
Ellinor seemed to be avoiding something and was reluctant to talk, which made Theo start to question if she really had a husband.
Just then, the sound of the keypad being pressed from outside the door echoed. Someone was coming home.
Theo frowned and looked up towards the door.
Ellinor knew it must be Chase coming back, and because of this, she felt a bit worried as she stroked the cat in her arms and let out a sigh.
She thought Chase wouldn’t be back before Theo left, but things didn’t go as she wished.
Chase walked in, put the takeout he brought back on the shoe cabinet, changed into his slippers, and looked up.
He was about to say something but suddenly stopped.
Because he saw Theo in their house!
What the hell? Wasn’t Ellinor always avoiding this guy? Why would she bring him home?
Chase looked at Theo, and Theo also looked at Chase. The atmosphere between the two men became tense.
Not knowing what was going on, Chase didn’t dare speak out and looked at Ellinor with questioning eyes.
Ellinor looked at Chase and massaged her temples. Things seemed to get more complicated and she didn’t know how to handle it.
Theo’s eyes darkened as he looked at the man who knew the password to this house, could come and go freely, and even seemed very familiar with the cat in this house. He looked at Ellinor, “Is he your husband?”
Ellinor gave a vague answer, leaving it open to interpretation.
She couldn’t deny it. If she denied it, it would be even harder to explain the relationship between her and Chase. If they weren’t a couple, how could she explain them living together?
However, that brief answer from Ellinor was like a sharp thorn that pierced Theo’s heart.
He knew Mr. Larios from Crescent Society. They had some contact because of the design contract for the Blanchet Building that was signed over to Crescent
Society.
Before, this man had expressed his interest in Ellinor, even asked for her number in front of him, and indeed called her.
Did it mean that they liked each other back then and maintained contact secretly?
Chase reacted very quickly, guessing the general situation through the question Theo asked Ellinor and his reactions.
Then, Chase walked up, smiling politely, “Mr. Blanchet, long time no see. Next time you come to our house, you could let me know in advance so I can prepare some food and drinks for you.”
Theo sat quietly on the sofa, slightly looking up at him, ignoring his polite words, and asked directly, “When did you two start?”
Chase, being smart, purposely walked over and affectionately hugged Ellinor’s shoulder, “We got married suddenly, less than a month ago; we haven’t had a wedding yet. But we will definitely have a wedding, and we will invite you.”
L
Theo’s face didn’t show any emotions; he was silent for a while, then stood up.
Chase said cheerfully again, “Mr. Blanchet, are you leaving? Then I must thank you for sending Ellinor home. It’s late now; I won’t keep you. We, as a couple, will invite you for a meal. We hope you can come”
