Chapter 718
What a coincidence!
Damn, was God playing some kind of joke on him?
So, Ellinor was actually Pearl, the sister he had been searching so long for
Pearl was Ellinor!
Balfour’s eyes were red and swollen. Regretfully, he said, “So, as her brother, I misunderstood my own sister again and again. I bullied and scared her along with others, splashed coffee on her head, and almost caused her to get an abortion”
Quinton’s face was stiff. He was a bit at a loss, “Uh.. Mr. Howard, you didn’t know that Ellinor was Pearl either.”
They finally met again, and he treated Pearl so badly. Would Pearl still be willing to recognize him as her brother?
Balfour touched his forehead and took a deep breath, weakly asking, “Where is Ellinor now?”
Quinton said, “She went back to the Blanchet family’s mansion with Mr. Blanchet, she should be asleep now.”
Balfour nodded somewhat dazedly, “Tomorrow, find a way to let me see her alone.”
“Okay!” Quinton agreed.
Balfour looked up and instructed worriedly, “Don’t force her, even if she doesn’t want to see me, you have to talk to her nicely.”
Quinton nodded, “Don’t worry, I understand.”
Balfour rubbed his eyebrows and responded, then waved his hand tiredly to dismiss him
Quinton then left there
Morning
When Ellinor woke up, she saw Theo’s deep eyes.
She always slept alone since she was a child, so suddenly waking up to find a man next to her caused her first reaction to be jumping back in fear.
Theo looked at her scared reaction and frowned, “What? Not used to it?”
Ellinor then realized she had moved back to the Blanchet family’s mansion yesterday and that her relationship with Theo had changed.
Even though everything that should have happened had already happened, she blushed a little and coughed, “You, what time is it? Don’t you have to go to work today?”
Theo squinted at her, “How can I go to work with someone lying on top of me?”
Ellinor frowned in confusion, then turned her head to see that she was not resting her head on a pillow but on Theo’s strong arm. 1
She laughed awkwardly and pouted, “You can pull your arm out when I’m asleep! My head isn’t made of stone; am I so heavy that you can’t move?*
This woman’s words were so sharp first thing in the morning.
Theo pretended to be angry, pinched her face, and sneered, “You were really tired last night, so I wanted you to sleep more and was afraid that moving would wake you up. How can you be so ungrateful?”
He said the phrase ‘so tired‘ in such an ambiguous tone that she couldn’t help but overthink
Ellinor blushed as she thought of their intimacy last night and sat up, I’m awake now! Thanks for your arm; you can take it back!”
Theo sat up with her, stretching his arm that had become numb from Ellinor’s weight, “So you don’t remember me as soon as you wake up? Weren’t you all over me last night?”
Ellinor’s face turned red instantly. She was extremely embarrassed, “Theo!!!”
