She was pissed!
Chapter 721
Veronica stood with her hands on her hips, “Hey! Ellinor, get dressed and get moving!
“Why?” Ellinor raised an eyebrow, gave Veronica a nonchalant look, then continued to look at her phone.
She wasn’t surprised when Veronica barged in. She had heard Veronica having a loud conversation with Devin at the door.
“Why? You’re asking me why? Since you’re in my house, you should follow the Blanchet family rules. We Blanchets don’t do lie ins! You think it’s like your house, where you can just laze around!”
Ellinor gave a slight chuckle, Tm your brother’s wife in the Blanchet household, not yours. If your brother doesn’t mind, why should you?”
Veronica was visibly upset. “You really think you’re part of the Blanchet family? Don’t think I don’t know, my brother is not married to you yet! Strictly speaking. you’re not a Blanchet. But I am, so you listen to me!
Ellinor laughed and nodded, “Uh–huh, I’m listening. What do you want me to do?”
Veronica crossed her arms, “I want you to get up and work now. Stop freeloading off the Blanchet family!”
Ellinor asked curiously. “Work? What kind of work?”
Veronica said, “Cleaning, cooking, there’s work everywhere. Can’t you see, you lazy bum?”
Ellinor was nonchalant. Those tasks seem to be done by professionals; I don’t need to do them, do I?”
Veronica frowned, “We do have professional maids to clean, but since you’re here, you should help. What’s my brother brought you here for? Less talk, more work you’re mopping all the floors today!”
Ellinor’s phone was pointed at Veronica, and she languidly watched the phone screen, “Theo, you’ve seen all this, right? Your family doesn’t welcome me; your sister is more wicked than a TV villain!”
“Give her the phone”
After hearing Theo’s stern voice from Ellinor’s phone, Veronica’s arrogance changed instantly. She finally realized that Ellinor wasn’t just looking at her phone. She was calling Theo!
This was outrageous!
Ellinor was too cunning!
Ellinor was still lounging at the head of the bed. She smiled and beckoned Veronica, “Come on, your brother wants you to take the call.”
Veronica broke out in a cold sweat, and even her back got wet. She was so pissed that her face was pale, but she dared not refuse her brother’s call.
She walked to the bed and took Ellinor’s phone. She saw the video call on the screen and saw that Theo was still in his car, not at the office yet.
THEO…
“Pack your things; I’ll have someone take you to your mother’s later.”
There was no expression on Theo’s face, and his tone was cold. Veronica knew she was in deep trouble.
They were half–siblings, but her mother had never been recognized by the Blanchet family and was unable to enter the Blanchet villa.
So far, she had been considered an unofficial family member at best.
Because she was of Blanchet blood and a girl, she was allowed by Theo to be brought up in the Blanchet villa.
Now Theo wanted to send her back to her mother. Was this not abandonment?
“Theo, I won’t leave!”
“Then apologize to her!”
